‘Soundscape: Ecology, Luxury, Degradation’. Compiled by David Toop

magazine spread

Here’s a CD compiled by David Toop for italian magazine Uovo, issue 14, September 2007. The magazine itself is a 500p book of mostly environmental concerns and beautiful pictures. Their webpage.

The CD features unrealeased tracks of field recordings with as few as possible editings or treatment, and the result is very good.

The .rar file includes scans of cover and spread page+Toop’s own blurb for the project.

    Hi! Got linked here from SFRP. Very nice and promising blog, but here it says “file not found”. ??
    Keep up the good work – Kalli

    Thanks for the info. I corrected the link: it works.

    hello… a quick heads-up: the rar file you’ve linked to leads to the “soundviews” compilation, and not the toop-curated “soundscape”…

    otherwise, excellent work!

    best,

    Nice LP. I enjoyed the more abstracts efforts, like the 2nd half of #1 Origin and #3 Abyss. Apparently Garvey founded a robot theater company called Theatre Concrete in San Francisco, and composes music for the Omnicircus company’s multimedia live shows.
