NoiseHand has only just started that channel and is from the UK. I'd say whoever it is obviously influenced quite heavily by Jodanchudan and Son of Dave. At first I thought it might even be Jodanchudan using another name, but I don't think it is.
Er, yes, it's me - I just started that channel as a place to upload the weirder stuff I've done that doesn't fit in with the more traditional blues on my usual channel. I thought my Arto Lindsay-rip off guitar crunching and harp effects would be of limited appeal to whoever watches my normal stuff! Thanks for the comments.
Hahaha! I thought it might be you. The camera work with the Ken Burns effect was my first tip off. Some interesting stuff going on there. Personally I like it and look forward to hearing more. It reminds me a lot of the sampling done by Paul Hardcastle back in the 1980's.
Nnnnnnnn...nineteen! I was a big fan of that sort of stuff - Tangerine Dream, Yello, Hardcastle - in the 80s, and then John Zorn and Arto Lindsay later on. I hadn't really thought about it, but I guess that's where it came from, mixed in with some blues.
Terrific job here, jodachudan! I regard this as `like an old beatnik reading with Kerouac or LeRoi Jones that featured explorative saxophone improvisations in the backdrop, adding a tonal counterpart to the spoken words. I admire your control of tone and the off-center phrasing. Congratulations ---------- Ted Burke http://youtube.com/watch?v=-VPUDjK-ibQ&feature=relmfu
Hah! I had no idea it was one of our own. Of course there are a lot of months left in 2013, but this just struck me as something out-there, different, and worth watching. If folks keep making the sorts of experiments that others here, including Isaacullah, Bonedog, and Hakan (to name only three of many), have been pursuing, music fans from purviews far outside our little world are eventually going to take notice.
I really should create a new page on this site for experiments of this sort. If you want to make my life easier--and not to hijack the thread, but let's do that--you might post such videos here. "Best of modernist blues harmonica experimentation" might be a working title.
