Listening to Jonathan Badger's recorded music, one assumes that he's playing with an orchestra, a multi-member band with a wide assortment of instruments. But those assumptions are proved false when you see him perform live. Badger's onstage solo performances are astounding; he's a one-man chamber orchestra and light show, his sole musical instrument a guitar augmented by effects pedals and a Mac laptop uniquely programmed to transform guitar tones into the sound of orchestral instruments.

Badger has finely-honed his technique through extensive touring, performing his riveting style of “guitaristic” electronic music live. He processes his guitar through an assortment of customized software and hardware - folding and weaving signals together into complex patterns of interlaced rhythm, harmony and texture. "This audio is judiciously processed in the computer in a fashion that causes the music to swerve between acoustic chamber flavors to full-on noise explosions" says Badger. His guitar also controls the video projections/light sculptures that accompany his live performances. The resulting aesthetic is an ambient, avant-rock hybrid with DIY sensibilities.

On our request, Badger created a new video to explain the magic behind his art. The video will fascinate casual listeners and musicians alike. Filled with awesomely beautiful music, it is packed with information that should captivate guitarists and electronic musicians alike.

Enjoy the video! We encourage you to show it to your friends, and for those of you in the Press, we invite you to share it with your readers.

Jonathan Badger's 'Verse' is OUT NOW on Cuneiform Records.
