Colin Stetson

Just picked up on this Colin.
Here's "How to do it"


I too thought it was loops and digital delay. Mental but a good find.

Sorry just noticed you've posted the link. Kev can delete this if he wishes

I saw him live 10 or so years ago at the Vancouver Jazz Festival in a small venue. It was fascinating. He has blown away forever the notion that the saxophone is a monophonic instrument.
 
It's not something I'd listen to for enjoyment, but it's impressive as all hell. And it's basically done naturally (other than contact microphones, which amplify something but don't create it).
 
Colin Stetson fascinates me- it almost feels like he's approaching the saxophone without any regard /knowledge of what one is 'supposed' to do with a sax. Rebuilding how one makes music with this big piece of metal from the ground up. also- the raw physicality of his live performance is phenomenal as a piece of 'musical athletics'
 

Similar threads... or are they? Maybe not but they could be worth reading anyway 😀
