Soult Month

Did you know that the saxophone was invented by Adolphe Sax? Makes sense! Anyway, we start with two tracks from the 70ies from two great american jazz saxophonists. Rahsaan Roland Kirk modified saxophones and other wind instruments and played more than one at a time, also using the circular breathing technique. Check this out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIqLJmlQQNM. Then two more recent tracks. Ben Vice (from the band housewives) used only sounds from the tenor saxophone on his 2017 album Monuments. Also the only instruments on New History Warfare Vol.3 were saxophones recorded live with several microphones but without loops or overdubs played by colin stetson. Like Roland Kirk he also uses the circular breathing technique. And finally english post-punk band Blurt from their first studio album. Ted Milton is going crazy on the sax!
