Philadelphia based multi-instrumentalist Neil Cippon explores the ambient atmospheres possible with his six string electric bass. Using various pedals, filters, loopers and delays combined with synthesizer textures and Berlin-School sequencing his soundscapes send the listener in an outward direction along an arc of original sounds, designs and moods.
Issuing a silvery beam of cool tones and tender textures, Cippon's processed bass guitar plays warmly in easily engaging curving contours. With concerts in this expanded minimalist style, the continuously lulling long-form pieces drift gently through Ambient realms. A quieter expression than those of his Rock Band years, these more recent routes take their time to develop. Moving gently through our thoughts, toward an audience tending toward the meaningful and mysterious Neil Cippon shares his secrets.
