With his wealth of musical knowledge, Toop provides inspiration for anyone interested in music.

This book is an intensive look at the complex landscape of modern music, where laptops, concerts, clubs, festivals, and other digital platforms intersect with traditional musical practices. A valuable resource for those seeking to understand the current state of music-making.
