Editor's review

Multitalented musician and performer David Coulter explores the mysterious aura of tones in space. He uses a diverse palette of instruments for his meditative creations, including violin, didgeridoo, piano, ukulele, and theremin. His multicultural and experimental approach to sound design creates an exotic canvas of colorful vibrations that seem painted in the air.

Biography

British master multi-instrumentalist (playing guitar, violin, mandolin, theremin, ukulele, bass, didjeridu, Jew's harp, musical saw, accordion, harmonium etc.) and sound artist. David spent six years with The Pogues; he was a member of Test Department and he has worked and recorded with Marc Ribot, Talvin Singh, Peter Hammill, The Kronos Quartet, Nitin Sawney, Roger Eno, Joe Strummer, Band of Holy Joy, Arthur H., Steve Nieve, Boy George, The Communards, Pete Townsend and many others. He has collaborated with French composer, arranger and electronica artist Jean-Jacques Palix and Parisian vocalist, author and live sound mixer and turntable artist, Eve Couturier since 1987, for the label Song Active Production and together they have just released their latest album Un Bruit qui Court. Both Jean-Jacques and Eve Couturier are also represented by Fringecore.

David sees his music as a form of sonic meditation - a musical exploration of resonance - playing with time, a creation of space, an exploration of emotions to create vivid images.

David continues to work as a musician/sound artist with The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in Oxford, where he recently worked with Gustav Metzger in restaging the Fluxus performance "Zyklus". Otherwise, David performs in various guises and we generally put him together with other extraordinary artists who are able to create a totally unique fusion of live improvisation.
