about

After doing two other instrument-based mixes (a saxophone mix for The Liminal and a drum mix for Headphone Commute), I continued the thread by focussing on another favorite insturment of mine, the double bass. Having just released a second collaboration ('Jangada') with Portugese/Dutch bass player Gonçalo Almeida, it seems like an obvious choice.

There's no instrument that can growl like a contra bass. It's no coincidence that one of the pieces here is called 'Beast'. The animalistic and monolythic power of the bass shines in this piece by James Tenney, as well as on tracks by Christian Weber and Michael Francis Duch. And although it might be less heard, the instrument a gentle side too, as you can hear in the sparse pieces by Mike Majkowski and Scott Worthington.
