Chaperone is the moniker of Philadelphia native David Coccagna, an artist renowned for crafting evocative soundscapes that delve into the urban psyche and the exploration of memory, steering clear of nostalgia. His musical journey spans from immersive installation and sound art in Santa Fe and Denver to releasing innovative techno-inspired works on labels such as Great Circles, Enmossed, Always Human Tapes, and Bastakiya Tapes. Now based in Richmond, Coccagna actively contributes to the electronic music scene through the review platform Behavior, hosting events featuring artists like Karl Meier, Further Reductions, and Willie Burns.
