As an improviser, he&rsquo;s played with musicians such as Felix Kubin, Jad Fair, Tom Cora, Andrea Parkins, Ramona Cordova, Shugo Tokumaru, Klimperei, Ergo Phizmiz and many others. He also runs the blog david f presents (<a href="https://davidfpresents.com" target="_blank">https://davidfpresents.com</a>).<br /> &nbsp;<br /> For this second volume, David will ask musicians to compose the end of songs before giving them to other musicians who will compose their beginnings.<br /> &nbsp;</p> <p><br /> <strong>&gt; WHAT&rsquo;S NEXT?</strong><br /> &nbsp;<br /> The other 7 volumes of the series will all take the form of an unusual creation exercise and will include tracks by artists from MonsterK7 and InPolySons labels as well as special guests. Each compilation will exclusively include unreleased tracks.&nbsp;<br /> &nbsp;<br /> We hope the result surprises us as much as you!<br /> &nbsp;<br /> &nbsp;<br /> <strong>&gt; ABOUT US</strong><br /> &nbsp;<br /> TRUC came about from a desire to create a bridge between two generations of musicians.&nbsp;<br /> &nbsp;<br /> On one side, InPolySons (created by Denis Tagu) has been standing up for a vision of counter-culture with inventive musicians such Pierre Bastien, Klimperei, David Fenech, Look de Bouk and Fr&eacute;d&eacute;ric Le Junter since 1989. The label released around 60 albums combining pataphysical music, art brut and new compositional techniques. Today, InPolysons keeps promoting unexpected music through this new project, TRUC.<br /> <a href="http://inpolysons.free.fr" target="_blank">http://inpolysons.free.fr</a><br /> &nbsp;<br /> On the other side, MonsterK7 is a disciple and the son of InPolySons. For the last ten years, Anne Le Gal and Gary Lafond have been sharing their taste for handmade music with numerous DIY musicians from France and from all around the globe. Through their music festival dedicated to toy instruments, album releases, and thematic compilations, MonsterK7 shamelessly mixes pop music with playful compilations.&nbsp;<br /> <a href="http://monsterk7.com" target="_blank">http://monsterk7.com</a><br /> &nbsp;<br /> &nbsp;<br /> TRUC couldn&rsquo;t exist without the invaluable help of:&nbsp;<br /> &nbsp;<br /> <strong>Pierre Chandeze</strong><br /> Pierre is an illustrator.
