Review

Big Droppins is an extraordinary collection of both solo exhibitions and eclectic ensemble pieces. It is comprised of five original compositions from Dimin and five skillfully crafted, orchestrated arrangements of classic jazz standards. With his fretted and fretless basses, his Boomerang Phrase Sampler, and his sophisticated knowledge of harmony, Dimin has redefined the art of looping and solo electric bass performance. Assisted by the brilliant work of world renowned soprano saxophonist Paul McCandless on two tracks and accompanied by several members of his talented “musical family”, Dimin demonstrates his technical proficiency in solo, duo, trio, and quartet settings. Lyrical fretless soloing, multi-layered textures, impeccable intonation, and rich tone can be found throughout. ...Bottom Line: With his innovative chordal approach to solo electric bass performance and the release of his first recording as a leader, Big Droppins, Michael Dimin has elevated the st! andards in the field of bass artistry. Look out!
