Toby Pascoe: the human breakbeat. Toby learned the ropes with no other than Nelee Hooper and the wild bunch when he was 12 years old they where kind of nurturing him letting him use their decks and taking the piss out of him.A long-term member of The Moonflowers and, more recently, Breakbeat Era, Toby's sound was perhaps the element that made those groups shine in performance and on disk. When he joined the moonflowers, aged 20, in 1990 they were transformed from a shambling garage outfit into a shambling hard edged and grungy dance machine powered by the funkiest drummer in the world. More than a drummer Toby could play any instrument he cared to try out and on Moonflower records alone he played flute, moog, guitar, bass and voice as well as being one of the most innovative sound engineers around. After 5 years with that band (by no means his only project during that time) he left to pursue sounds and ideas that only he could imagine. At one time his recording studio consisted of a Dat machine, a drum machine and an echo unit all feeding back into one another: "you're listening to the sound of electricity!" Toby was proud to announce. During the same period he began to build a drum machine using real drums powered by steam and programmed with a [roll of paper with loads of holes in] like a pianola . With Breakbeat Era the world got its first real chance to see Toby at the height of his powers inspiring: "breathtaking drummer defies all human limitations to reproduce the most complex, chopped-up breaks in real time." when that group performed their world tour in 2000. Toby died by his own hand on june 1st 2002 and leaves the world his daughter Seren and his recorded music under the names: 'Gertrude', 'casual-T' and Owl Man. "Tread lightly" he said, "never spill a drop."

The Folkestone Fringe practice centres on the exploration of public and private space and the liminal boundary that exists between. As artists we work in sound and installation. We are always interested in collaborating with other artists. We offer commissions and respond to briefs. 

Our recent works include Boat Radio, 'Six Lines Some of which are Broken' commissioned for 120 hours for John Cage by Transmission Arts, New York and the Lighthouse Relay. THese and other works can be heard here or by visiting www.folkestonefringe.com
