Laptop is the new wave/electronic/pop project of musician/filmmaker Jesse Hartman from New York City. He was previously in the lo-fi indie rock group [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Sammy+%284%29]Sammy[/url] with Luke Wood.
"After Sammy broke-up, I knew I wanted to continue making music. I knew I needed to basically go at it alone. I knew it had to be something completely different...I wanted to explore artifice and a kind of musical theater of the absurd, get away from the guitar rock I had grown up with, be mean and honest, be funny, use samples, include cinematic elements...I knew I never wanted to be lumped in with bands like Pavement. I knew I didn't want it to be a band....I think Laptop accomplished all that — accidentally/consciously." — Jesse Hartman (interviewed by iJamming.net)
