Florentin Ginot Interview and Performance - Extended Techniques & Contemporary Music

In this second interview with French contemporary musician, Florentin Ginot shares with us some of his favourite extended techniques on the double bass. Be prepared to hear some new and wacky sounds and learn how to truly listen to the possibilities of the bass with Florentin's mastery of the instrument. We also challenged Florentin to improvise in our most unusual recording location yet, a giant piece of machinery in an industrial cotton mill so be sure to watch his performance at the end of the video.

Big thanks to Florentin Ginot for sharing his artistry and to Bates Mill in Huddersfield for providing such a cool location!
