Bass Trumpet & Moogerfoogers

[Harlock]

This is a short clip of a gig my jazz trio did recently on the night of the Supermoon 3/19/11. We usually do traditional jazz standards with this group, but for this night we went "lunar".

I ran my bass trumpet through 4 moogerfoogers, using the MP-201 as a controller - the yamaha silent brass is being used as a pickup mute. The bass player (who usually plays upright) is playing his electric, and also brought out his Moog Taurus 3 Bass Pedals! To top it all off, our guest keyboardist brought out an authentic fender rhodes mark one - whoa.

Enjoy!

Sounds nice, wish it was longer :-). Are those P-90 pickups on that bass or are they just white jazz pups?

@G.Kaye -- Thanks! I'm using the Yamaha Silent Brass system w/ the Yamaha PM6 pickup mute (meant for flugel horn, but fits well in my bass trumpet bell too).

I would've liked to listen for a bit longer as well! Cool stuff.

Yeah, I'm going to try to get longer usable clips next time. Thanks for listening!
