Improvisation

My first time performing improvised solo double bass. I wanted to acknowledge the influence I’ve taken from the DVD made by the legendary Mark Dresser on his approach to these techniques (Guts - check it yo). Also very grateful to be able to watch and absorb so many incredible free improvisers that frequently play in Vancouver (notably Peggy Lee, Tommy Babin, Torsten Muller).

Great playing, Nikko! Your arco sound is very refined these days.
