|
|
I hear Mendez used to lip buzz (i.e. no mpc), I was wondering how big a part it played in his practice sessions? And where did he get the technique from? (e.g. was it his dad??).
Any info??
Cheers

I'm sure he free buzzed some, but I don't think it was a big part of his practice.
The Mendez Library has a couple of cassettes of clinics he gave at high schools. He mentions mouthpiece buzzing some, but says it is to be just to get the lips started.
I am pretty sure he was not big on free buzzing or mpc buzzing as a routine in itself. There isn't a whole lot of material to base this on, though.
Maybe someone out there knows more?
