David Soin tappeser

David Soin tappeser is a drummer, composer and performance artist based between London and new delhi. His practice explores socio-eco-spiritual-tempo-somatic dimensions of sound.

His performances and compositions use rhythm to unearth, manipulate and deconstruct linear perceptions of time, interdependence and alterity. They hint at intercultural entanglements, parallel histories and extra-human frames of reference while thinking about environmental destruction and sociopolitical fissures.

his approach to drums is improvisation-driven, searching for hidden resonances and unsung textures.
