This system is by far the best and most honest sounding violin pickup system on the market right now! It blends an Electret microphone with a bridge pickup, both attaching to a stereo jack out under the chin rest. This means you get the solid sound of the pick up blended with the sweeter sound of the Electret mic without heavy cables attached to your instrument. Eric also makes amazing instruments and has made both pickups and violins for Jean Luc Ponty, Zach Brock, Matt Glaser and many other amazing musicians. Headway Audio https://www.headwaymusicaudio.com/ Headway was founded in the UK in 2006 by John Littler, they make pickups and preamps for string instruments. Most famously they make 'The Band' pickup for violin, viola, cello and bass, which is a very reasonably priced pickup that wraps around the body of the instrument. They make the amazing EDB2, an acoustic instrument preamp that can blend 2 channels of audio to a balanced output ready for the sound desk. This is perfect for blending a microphone and a pickup on the same instrument, as is needed with Eric Aceto's dual system. The EDB2 also has 5 band EQ, a notch filter and the ability to power each channel differently. Its an amazing piece of kit! Christian Howes Christian Howes is a jazz violinist, educator and composer. He runs Creative Strings, the non for profit organisation dedicated to teaching string players how to play music out-with the classical idiom. He runs regular summer camps across the world and had taught and mentored many amazing artists that are now making their own careers in the music industry, like our friend Jason Anick.

The acoustic jazz ensemble, Rhythm Future Quartet has a straightforward agenda: to keep the spirit of Gypsy jazz alive and expanding in today’s musical universe. The virtuosic foursome, named for a Django Reinhardt tune, offers up a newly minted sound, influenced by the classic Hot Club of France, yet wholly contemporary. Led by violinist Jason Anick and guitarist Olli Soikkeli, the quartet performs dynamic and lyrical arrangements of both Gypsy jazz standards and original compositions that draw upon diverse international rhythms and musical idioms. With Max O’Rourke on second guitar and Greg Loughman on bass, Rhythm Future is dedicated to expanding the boundaries of a vital musical genre. Where the band’s self-titled debut album re-visited classic jazz and Gypsy jazz favorites, Travels, the quartet’s current release, concentrates on group originals that make captivating use of musical sources from outside the conventional Gypsy jazz terrain. Travels reflects both the accumulated knowledge garnered from the groups world wide touring as well as the international influences that inspired new rhythmic and harmonic possibilities within their compositions and arrangements.

Cuatro novedades discográficas en la entrega 122 de HDO. El jazz manouche del Rhythm Future Quartet en Travels con un violinista (Jason Anick) y un guitarrista solista (Olli Soikkeli) que no superan los treinta años y muestran muy buenas maneras tocando y componiendo. Theo Croker es algo más que un trompetista que ha estudiado muy bien el legado de los grandes, puesto que en Escape Velocity demuestra estar al frente de un gran grupo para una propuesta en la que hay producción, pero también muy buenos músicos. Further Explorations es el estreno del septeto Alchemy Sound Project. Erica Lindsay, Sumi Tonooka, Salim Washington, David Arend y Samantha Boshnack son los autores de todas las composiciones de su debut, en el que hay muy buenas melodías, y un buen sonido de todo el ensemble. El guitarrista esloveno Samo Salamon publica Winds, grabado en directo en otoño del pasado año 2015 a medias con el pianista Stefano Battaglia. Las improvisaciones, extensas, permiten que ambos exploren y experimenten con las posibilidades de sus instrumentos y los propios roles de cada uno de los músicos. En cuanto a las composiciones de Salamon, hay momentos de una suavidad y belleza que se podrían calificar de sublimes, especialmente si se escuchan en cierta manera como contraposición a la tensión de las partes improvisadas.
