Paul Lytton

Percussionist Paul Lytton is both an inventive, textural drummer in the tradition of European free jazz, and a pioneer in electronic sound processing and the use of homemade instruments of his own invention. Lytton made his first noteworthy appearances on the British creative music scene in the late ’60s, and his influence — particularly in live electronics — can still be observed in the experimentation of a new generation of improvisers in the 21st century. – Dave Lynch, AllMusic
