Listening again, I was just amazed at How Many Different Sounds Bára can extract from her double bass...and without the use of artificial effects or pedals.
At times she bows the strings to resonate to produce the ancient sound of a didgeridoo. Then sometimes I hear the calls of the great humpback or blue whales. Other times, she makes it spike and flutter as if it's a flute! Just jaw-dropping talent...by both. Bravo!
Thank you once again KEXP for capturing and sharing this with the world.
It made me go in a journey accross so many worlds and galaxys, through space and time.
This is definitely a headphone listen.
I can’t wrap my head around the sounds I’m hearing. Incredible!

This was a bit reminiscent to me of Sigur Rós' Ágætis Byrjun album, which for the most part, is a very good thing.
The following comment may come off as more morbid or depressing than rejoiceful, but...
While listening, I imagined these pieces to be the complete soundtrack to the entire creation, evolution, and destruction of all life as we know it, and of our (amazing) universe. I was taken on a (roller-coaster) journey through time, from deep sorrow, to utter joy...and everything in between...like watching (or listening) to time itself, unfold.
I haven't been touched by a piece of music like this for a very long time, maybe since Henryk Górecki's Symphony No. 3 (London Sinfonietta, soprano Dawn Upshaw, conductor David Zinman).
Thank you to the musicians, modern technology, and to KEXP for capturing it expertly.
Superb!♡♡
They make a great team.
.....wow!
Well the impro is interesting and the soundscape is lush !! But at times I wanted a melody. Definately a headphone listen
Just had a beautiful experience, ended up laughing with the people at end, for whatever reason
Wow. Is he using software to produce those sounds from the bass?
Judging from what I saw I'd say no, it appears that he's using effect pedals and a looper to do it.
SoundForge Pro + any BassBoost VST's or sampulated equalizers.
I think it's the electro harmonix hog doin' the heavy liftin
i do understand
Chillidos, chillidos, cara de concentración, más chillidos, aplausos tímidos.
Y suenan increible!
Good stuff to enjoy, reminds me the lord of the rings
Now that's what I call a double bass.
sorry
Is this performance available as a CD or download anywhere?
Yes. Coming in March on the Sono Luminus label. Wonderful stuff so do check it out.
@@seanhickey986 Will do. Thanks for the heads up
Зачем играть замысловато ? Звукоизвлекай попроще да нагнетай . Но слушается , конечно , завораживающе . Музыка огнедышащей земли , холодных туманов , горячих гейзеров , разлитой тоски , магических опасностей и отсутствия человека . Только реки , ручьи , кристаллы , ущелья , эхоооооооо
По мне, так муть какая то. Какой то набор заунывных звуков выдаётся за творчество.
W.T.F.!
