»Mondo Black Orchestra« collects complete series of works made by David Toop for Sub Rosa, recorded 1996-2003.

David Toop (born 5 May 1949) is an English musician and author, and as of 2001 was visiting Research Fellow in the Media School at London College of Communication. He was notably a member of The Flying Lizards. He released »New and Rediscovered Musical Instruments« (with Max Eatsley) on Brian Eno's Obscure label (1975) and many solo albums including »7th Floor at Sunset« (2000) and »Black Chamber« (2003) on Sub Rosa.

He was a prominent contributor to the British magazine The Face. He is a regular contributor to The Wire. Toop published his pioneering book on hip hop, »Rap Attack«, in 1984. Eleven years later, »Ocean of Sound« appeared, described as Toop's »poetic survey of contemporary musical life from Debussy through Ambient, Techno, and drum 'n' bass.«
