Cover Ocean of Sound

Ocean of sound Klang, Geräusch, Stille

David Toop

In short

"Ocean of Sound" begins in 1889 with Debussy's experience of Javanese music in Paris and traces the development of a culture that reacted to the incomprehensibility of communication in the 20th century with a focus on scent, light, and ambient noise. David Toop illuminates the cultural evolution from Erik Satie to the Velvet Underground and from Miles Davis to Jimi Hendrix. Toop, a London-based writer, musician, and artist, is also the author of "Rap Attack 3" and "Exotica".
