#87: Neil "Nail" Alexander - Improvisation, Live Performance
b'
Neil \\u201cNail\\u201d Alexander is a multi-genre, multi-instrumentalist from the Hudson Valley in New York. Neil\\u2019s work spans just about every genre from jazz and classical to modern EDM and ambient. He is an avid live performer who incorporates both acoustic and electronic elements into his performances, and combines jazz sensibilities to electronic composition. Neil runs the Hudson Valley Ableton Live user group.
I spoke with Neil about his wide range of work and how he manages to wear multiple musical hats. Neil had some important wisdom on live performance and improvisation. It was great to finally sit down and talk with Neil after years of online interactions and finally meeting face to face at Ableton Loop.
