Joris Vanvinckenroye - Viola da gamba

Editor's Info
BASta! Is the solo project of double bass player and composer Joris Vanvinckenroye, in which he explores and pushes the limits of the double bass. In this project, using looping and effect pedals, Joris creates an almost orchestral sound, using the full range of his instrument-from the deepest basses to the highest notes.

Was described by New Folk Sounds as a unique blend of ‘rocking acoustics’, where the layered compositions feel like a ‘sensual instrumental massage’ with a dynamic interplay of soft and powerful movements.
Besides BASta!, Joris has been active for decades in bands such as Aranis, Troissoeur and MOTYK (formerly Flairck), with which he performs internationally, from Mexico to China and from Oman to the United States. He also composes music for dance, theatre and multidisciplinary producti.......
