David Toop (b.1949 ) is a musician, writer and sound curator. He has published some of the most inspiring and personal books on music in recent years, including Rap Attack, Exotic, Haunted Weather, Ocean of Sound and his most recent on @ecstaticpeacelibrary - an autobiography entitled Flutter Echo. New and Rediscovered Musical Instruments, his debut release, was released on Brian Eno's Obscure label in 1975. Flutter Echo reveals many of the very personal aspects of trying to make a living as an improvising musician in a climate that has challenged such decisions, and continues to do so today. I am honoured to count David as one of my oldest friends now and we’ve worked together on numerous occasions, performing and recording. This coming Saturday, 6th July, we will be in conversation too at the Turning Tides Festival at North Greenwich at 15.00. It’s free so come along if you wish and join in the chat! And if not, read his books and listen to his music! #experimental #experimentalmusic #avantgarde #improvisation #improvised #improvisedmusic #inspiration #beautiful #bestoftheday #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephotography #amazing #musician #writer #brianeno #davidtoop #instamusic

Hugh Davies (1943-2005) was a musicologist, composer, and inventor of experimental musical instruments. His long and varied career was dedicated to experimental methods of musical creation. I was recently reading about him again in David Toop’s wonderful Flutter Echo book and remembered the only time I’d met him was with David at a music conference in the early 2000s in Yorkshire. As an assistant to Karlheinz Stockhausen for two years, Davies was influential in the development of intuitive music, but it’s his self-built instruments that are of particular interest I find. He opened up sonic possibilities using kitchen tools, such as egg slicers and metal sieves, and homemade electronics. His best known instrument was the Shozyg (1969), a sound sculpture made inside an encyclopaedic volume. Within it are small prongs, springs and wires which are plucked, scraped and twanged by the performer. In some ways Davies was an eccentric British sonic magician! #stockhausen #hughdavies #karlheinzstockhausen #Shozyg #davidtoop #experimental #experimentalmusic #avantgarde #improvisation #improvisedmusic #inventions #musicology #bestoftheday #beautiful #instamusic #instagood #instadaily #inspiration

Thrilled to get this in the post this week, the autobiography of writer and musician David Toop. I’m honoured to have been friends with David since the 1990s and travelled and performed with him many times over. He’s a key figure connecting the dots between improvisation and composition, sound and silence. Gratitude to @ecstaticpeacelibrary for publishing this!! #davidtoop #experimentalmusic #experimental #avantgarde #soundart #soundartist #sonicart #beautiful #bestoftheday #bookstagram #instabook #flutterecho #inspiration #friend #instagood #instadaily

FOAMS, HEAPS, SPONGES, CLOUDS AND VORTEXES Improvisation of materials, resonances, channels and contingencies di David Toop, con John Butcher e Lucie Štěpánková David Toop (born 1949) has been developing a practice that crosses boundaries of sound, listening, music and materials since 1970. This encompasses improvised music performance, writing, electronic sound, field recording, exhibition curating, sound art installations and opera. He is the author of seven acclaimed books and Professor of Audio Culture and Improvisation at London College of Communication. In recent years his collaborations include Rie Nakajima, Akio Suzuki, Tania Chen, John Butcher, Elaine Mitchener, Henry Grimes, Alasdair Roberts, Thurston Moore, Ryuichi Sakamoto, amongst others. Toop signals as one of the most formative experiences in his life the events of May 1968 when he participated in the occupation of Hornsey College of Art. These seem to have been influential on his musical practice both in terms of his focus on simplicity as well as on the interplay between listening and sounding involved in improvisation. On Toop’s recent projects, we find him exploring the resonances of a range of materials that go from the mundane and simple to the more sophisticated, reflecting his need to stay connected to this world and its instabilities. On his path, he has found enlightenment on Mario Merz’s work and the Arte Povera movement. In Toop’s own words, Merz “was one of those inspirational, complex artists of the twentieth-century who devised a new language, a new toolkit, a new way of thinking that gradually reveals its potential over time as a means for understanding our current predicament.” For this concert happening inside Merz’s exhibition “Igloos” and grounded in improvisation, David Toop invites as collaborators electronic musician and sound artist Lucie Štěpánková and saxophonist John Butcher, probably one of the most influential musicians within the exploratory realms of improvisation. #hangarbicocca #davidtoop #noisemusic #music #improvisation #musician #soundartist #performance #concert #electronicmusic #material #resonance #musicperformance #inveins #inveinschannel #inveinspodcast
