Chicago Improv musician Frank Rosaly uses his Rogers drum set from the 60s as a base from which to start experimenting. After connecting a contact mic to each drum, he runs them through various pedals for different types of distortion. And then there's the circular saw...
Originally from Phoenix, Rosaly has been heavy into Chicago's improv scene since 2001. Gearwire's Gretchen Hasse recently met with him at Myopic Bookstore in Chicago's Wicker Park. (Myopic's Experimental Music Mondays marks them as Chicago's longest running experimental music venue.) Before his set, Frank took some time to walk us through his unique setup. This video is the first of several on Frank's approach and materials.
After you watch the video, read more about Rosaly's experiments in articles he wrote expressly for Gearwire.
