A. G. Cook is a pivotal figure in the realm of contemporary electronic music, best known as the founder of the influential record label PC Music and as a prominent producer and collaborator, often with artists in the hyperpop genre. Born Alexander Guy Cook on August 1, 1990, in the United Kingdom, Cook carved out a niche in the music industry with his avant-garde approach to pop music that blends high-pitched vocals, glossy and synthetic textures, and an eclectic mix of underground and mainstream sensibilities.

Heralded as a visionary for his work with PC Music since its inception in 2013, A. G. Cook has played a crucial role in shaping the sound and aesthetic of hyperpop, pushing the boundaries of what pop music can be. As a producer and songwriter, he's worked with a host of cutting-edge pop artists, most notably Charli XCX, with whom he has built a long-standing creative partnership. His extensive discography showcases a willingness to experiment with form and genre, as seen in his releases both as a solo artist and as a collaborator, with tracks like "Beautiful (2023 Edit)" and "Xcxoplex" (with Charli XCX). Cook's innovative work continues to blur the lines between the experimental and the accessible, solidifying his status as a transformative figure in contemporary pop and electronic music.
