QUOTES AND REVIEWS

"...Edo Castro, who's a human armory of strange and wonderful sonic colors. Using a combination of 4-, 5-, 6-, 7- and 9-string basses, a Chapman Stick, and a toy box full of effects, Edo weaves textures that transcend mere rhythmic accompaniment and soar into the arena of orchestration."
Mike Molenda, Editor and Chief Guitar Player Magazine

"Edo is one of Chicago's Finest"
Chicago Magazine 1989

"...Your solo CD is the best instrumental music I've heard in a LONG TIME. It's a cd to make love to, get massaged to, drive a long drive with."
Caroline Aiken

"What types of basses do you play?"

My main basses are my Conklin 6,7,8 and 9 string basses. I also play electric KYDD 6 String Upright, Aquilina Bertone Deluxe 7 String fretless and a couple of 4 string basses: A Moses Graphite Fretless Neck Jazz bass and Modulus VJ4. I've lost interest in playing "The Stick" but I may get back into it.

"What are your influences?"

Anything that grooves,melodic or funky, hip-hop, Singer-Songwriter, Jazz, Fusion Jazz, Folk, Progressive music of all types...

"Like who?"

Peter Gabriel, King Crimson, Dixie Chicks, Johnny Cash, James Brown, Parlaiment,AWB, Tool,Cocteau Twins, Golden Palaminos, Sakamoto, Joni Mitchell, Miles Davis...as long as it's cool.

"Dislikes?"

Brainless twirps who lie, bullshit and say shit that ain't real, passive-aggressive types and other negative dwellers...low fi-individuals who are selfish...need I go on?
