BFI, featuring Miles Mosley: The Mighty HRP
Miles Mosley is the epitome of cool. Add drummer Tony Austin and it’s an unstoppable duo.
Here’s a video of the master musicians doing their thing on the song “The Mighty HRP.”
In his time with No Treble, Kevin has met hundreds of amazing bassists and interviewed icons like Jack Casady, Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and more. He's a gigging bassist performing jazz in Northern Virginia and bluegrass with The Plate Scrapers up and down the East Coast. Kevin appreciates all genres of music, from R&B to metal and everything in between. Connect with Kevin on Facebook and check his performance schedule on his website.
I’ve got mixed feelings about such effects being used on an upright bass……
Why? Where do you think true creativity comes from? Staying traditional and boring? It’s not like he’s sampling music or using loops. He’s still has to create and play the music with his hands. I use vocal effects on my bass and I get sounds I can’t even describe sometimes. Nothing wrong with widening your palette. Try it sometime.
I’ve got mixed feelings too- excitement and awe!!
damn son!
