Vedr. Re: Jon Hassells music
Hi !
Have you ever tried making this sound on the guitar ?
With use of harmonizer and the "freeze reverb" ?
Do you use ableton for liveplaying ?

YES! Finally a thread worth reading ;-) I too love Hassels stuff.
Bumped into his music back in -79 and it completely blew my mind. A
friend said he was "using synthethizers" but I didn't believe so. It
took years to dig out the fact that he actually was playing a trumpet
into a harmonizer, using musical phrasing he had learned from
studying for an indian singer. In the early eighties he was touring
to a Swedish city and I
managed to go there over the day/night to
watch the concert. That was the first time I came to hear the use of
"Freeze Reverb", a wonderful effect that now comes bundled with
Ableton Live right into your laptop - if you want. That concert was
also the first time I found out that the UDU was the instrument that
created another sound I had fallen in love with from only hearing it
on recordings. Today I jam with udu players and it's a rather common
instrument around here.
