Brandon Lopez Interview


Source: POST-TRASH.

Moten and dehiscence is how I came to virtuoso double bassist Brandon Lopez in earnest. A friend in a record shop recommended an album of his, an incendiary 2023’s solo bowed bass record called vilevilevilevilevilevile. I was hooked, dove through López’ back catalogue of improvised goodness, and stayed on the lookout for new material. Then, in April of 2025, came Revision, his collaboration with Moten, with López’ avant-garde playing acting as minimalist foil to Moten’s words.
