How to play the sax abrasively?
Due to my living situation I can't practice the sax for too long, especially the wilder techniques would drive my neighbours insane.
Does anyone have some tips for achieving a screechy, squeaky, free-jazzy sax sound? If I knew what to look for, I'd have to experiment less, which in turn would bother everyone around me less. I'm not looking to be a great sax player, but I'd like to add some screeching sax to a track I'm working on. What I'm currently doing is growling and/or overblowing, but it's not abrasive enough. |
Trying to learn some new, wilder saxual techniques without keeping the neighbors up at night.

Bite (or put a lot of pressure with your lips) the reed and scream into it.

I tried loud, almost shouting humming when growling, but no screaming yet. |
You can hear Gayle's high pitched screams occasionally on this, that's where I picked it up. |

Ha, just kidding. I have the album of course. Will listen closely. Thanks again! |
Holy **** is that abrasive.
The poor guy who just moved into the appartment below. Yep, right thread this time |
