MANRING MICHAEL, PERFORMANCE STUDY. BASS TAB. VIDEO

On Michael's recent CD Thonk, he played four solo pieces that use some unorthodox techniques. In this video, he describes each of the techniques involved and demonstrates his approach to performing this music. Topics include: using altered tunings; the capabilities of the Hyperbass; applying the slap technique to a fretless bass; use of the Ebow and playing with two Ebows simultaneously; changing tunings while playing; composing with multiple tunings; and playing with several instruments simultaneously. The accompanying booklet includes easy-to-follow notation and diagrams that correspond exactly to the video.
