041 - Hidekazu Wakabayashi (微分音チャンネル)

Now and Xen

Hidekazu Wakabayashi is a multi-instrumentalist who puts his works on YouTube with lots of incredible visual content! We talk about traditional music, cover songs, brown notes, recycling, the legendary “Iceface tuning” from his dreams, and other instruments. Among those discussed include Tolgahan Çoğulu’s microtonal guitar frets, the fluid piano, non-Western flutes, and fretless guitars. We also figure out who’s best between YouTube and Bandcamp!
