With Michele Zaffarano, a poet and great guitar improviser, I form the duo Bakshi.
I am not a musician, so my journey is basically in discovery of sound with the pros and cons of not having an academic musical education, and possibly where the ways of the journey are more important than the final result. Not sure Michele would subscribe such a statement, but there you go.
We play:
- - Electric & acoustic guitars
- Various percussive objects
- Pure Data for real time signal processing and sound generation
Some common influences when we started this project (there is far too much good music and musicians to list, even if there is so little good music played):
Derek Bailey, Fred Frith, Albert Ayler, AMM...free improvisers around the world!
We have opened BAKSHIMUSIC.COM where you will find performance dates and where some of our tracks will be available for download. We hope soon to offer downloadable tracks from other estimated musicians.
