what amps does cello play live/record with?

 

[Castagnier]

Well, knowing that the 4tet does not have a roadie, the aim is to find a lightweight set up. He previously played a little Markbass head with a 4x10 Hartke but he changed his set up now for his 2x12 Barefaced and an TH500 Aguilar.

Regarding the recording process, they previously recorded all the LPs in Lausanne Switzerland where there was an old Bassman. and a Neve board.
They recorded Doni Doni @ ICP Studio in Bruxelles and Cello played a Divided By 13 (studio's back line) amp for the 1st time.

[Castagnier]

favorite tracks : Kudu, Pacheco, Szerelem, Fat City, Doni Doni Part 2, Le Complement du verbe
least favorite track: Seydou

the emcee on le complemente du verbe is nice, brings a nice groove to the rapping.

Well, the piano on the chorus ( Complément du Verbe ) is a kind of "allusion", a "tribute" to Common and the late great J Dilla for their tune THE LIGHT :
