Chop Shop

Chop Shop a.k.a. Scott Konzelmann, is a noise musician who has released recordings on Pure, RRRecords, Banned Prodution, V2_Archief and Generator Sound Art.

Chop Shop creates sound using salvaged materials and speakers to create drones and other sounds specific to the speaker created. [cite web |url=http://www.23five.org/archives/chopshop.html |title=Chop Shop (23five.org) |accessdate=2008-01-14 ] Often the speaker features prominently in the packaging as a photo or daguerreotype.
