Cycloptopuss
Happened to catch these guys last night, in Seattle, at the Seamonster
Lounge. A three-piece with some great looping. At first glance I
thought it was bass/drums/guitar, but then I noticed that it was
actually two bassists and a drummer. One of the bassists just grooved
on the low-end, the other guy played lead bass, which I usually don't
like, but this guy was wonderful.
Over the course of their set, which was just a continuous block of
music (they were playing when I showed up and when I left), he played
bass, looped his vocalisings on a DL-4, played electric piano (feeding
a second DL-4) and even picked up an electric guitar for a while. The
drummer never stopped, he'd just take a cue from one of the other guys
and segue into a new groove every ten minutes or so. I couldn't find
any info on them on the web, but if they come to your neck of the woods
I recommend them highly.
