Hi Sven, I listened to this piece over and over again. That's brilliantly made. At the point Crazy Funk in B minor played on Diatonic Harmonica (Blues Harp) my hair even stood on end. As a harp player myself, I wish your continued success. Cheers Onay
I can't believe you've only been playing 4 years. You either must have already mastered another instrument before picking up the harp or you've spent 20 hours a day for the last four years practicing? Brilliant stuff by the way.
Excellent, j'espère sincèrement que tu comprendras ce que j'écrit, afin de savoir que je te considère comme une exception. Merci à toi pour ce moment super agréable et bonne continuation
That is really sad & surprising. When I wrote this he was still living. I did not know he had leukaemia though. I got that news btw from you.67 is not that old by today standards. I will listen to his music tonight. Framat
Can you please tell me which diatonic harmonica this is you're using here? I need this exact one for a song I'm recording. Please let me know which key and which diatonic to get here. I bought the wrong harps and it looks like you have the exact right one here. Great playing man! I hope to be as good as you one day!
This is so nice Sven! Congrats. Do you remember what you were using on the multistomp, apart from the autowah (and the order)? Didn´t have such a good experience with mine, thoug it is most likely because I don´t get along with digital effects programing - but you nailed it! I am guessing you played softly because filters are quite prone to be overloaded by the harmonica signal, resulting in a harsh distortion. Any tips are very appreciated!
I don't remeber what the exact settings were, but you should try to pre-amp your harmonica before feeding it into the multistomp. Just play with the settings of input volume, gain, output volume etc. And also fiddle with the Sense + Resonance settings of the Autowah. It might also be that I used a compressor in front of the Autowah (and a small Reverb after), but I'm not quite sure about the compressor.
Hey Sven, cool vorgetragen! Zur Zeit versuche experementiere ich mit einer Loopstation boss rc3, boss delay und einem octaver von moorer. Wie bekomme ich den Autowah effect hin? bzw. welches Zoom Multistomp Gerät benutzt du oder kannst du empfehlen? Vielen Dank und keep on harping... :-)
do you by any chance mean the lick at 4:05? Because I had a feeling that I heard that somewhere before. I used to listen to jamiroquai quite a lot, so it's not unthinkable (although not intended) ;)
Sven Bolzern perhaps earlier too 1:03-23....... calling on the nuances of other licks and innovating around the idea is what it's all about...... hey keep going this way and you'll have a great career ahead of you...... I look forward to hearing more cheers
have you ever learnd any instrument before start playing harmonica? i just wonder that harmonica player who learn only harmonica has limit in playing music
I played a completely different instrument once, but I was never good at it. And of course harmonica players are kinda limitied, because we play a diatonic instrument :)
Sven - I could listen to this all day long. Love it!
WONDERFUL HARP !!
Killer harp! Fantastic!!!

Did you use an effect?

seems possible, that would even the attack, and most of the notes you are getting are "quacking" similarly. Thanks very much!
Sir what effect did you use on the zoom please? I have that pedal. Thanks
Sounds almost like George Duke playing keyboards:-)
I like it
Hi, can i use this in a video as background music? i will give you credit in the video and in the description :D
Just awesome! :D
no problem, go ahead ;)
If you want just the backing track, you can find it here: ruclips.net/video/4LgUemECraM/видео.html
Thank you, love the sound of the harmonica :D can't take the best part away :)
can just imagine Mario with a pimp suit bitch slappin' goombas XD
Chido!!!
smokin'
Hey Sven, cool vorgetragen! Zur Zeit versuche experementiere ich mit einer Loopstation boss rc3, boss delay und einem octaver von moorer. Wie bekomme ich den Autowah effect hin? bzw. welches Zoom Multistomp Gerät benutzt du oder kannst du empfehlen? Vielen Dank und keep on harping... :-)
very cool! is this in 3rd position?
Блистательно!
nicht übel... besonders interessant finde ich den part von 2:11 - 2:40. sehr einfallsreich und virtuos. wie üblich :)
loved it and did i hear you tipping your hat to jamiroquai?
do you by any chance mean the lick at 4:05? Because I had a feeling that I heard that somewhere before. I used to listen to jamiroquai quite a lot, so it's not unthinkable (although not intended) ;)

julian conrad By the way are using an Auto-wah or a pedal?
Hi! Cool and funky man!
But, do you mean that you are playing and in the same time stepping on some unit pedal to do wah-wah effects?
what mic do you play ??
Great playing...
cheers from Greece!
Hi! This is an Audix Fireball V.

Hint: read the description ;)
have you ever learnd any instrument before start playing harmonica? i just wonder that harmonica player who learn only harmonica has limit in playing music
