Hans Schneider

Hans Schneider is great German improvising bassist with great albums dating back to the '70s.
He is an undersung improvisor.
He gets a fantastic dry sound that actually sits well in textural situations. He pioneered the exploration of different angles of the bow to both shut down harmonic nodes for a non-resonant sound as well as activating multiple nodes at once using bow angle and pressure.
Here are some classic albums he is on:
