Kristian Poulsen is a Danish guitarist working primarily with prepared detuned guitar structures in both solo and group context. Besides different duos and trios he plays in the bands Inner Cop Avoidance and Spost.
Double Neck Dobbeltnakke consists of recordings from 2020-2021 made on a prepared double neck guitar, a cheap copy of Jimmy Page's favorite guitar. But in this context the double neck is used for repetitive structures instead of grand gestures.
The tracks are improvisations recorded in multi-track in real time and manipulated in different ways without dubbing. The double neck is prepared with chop sticks which makes it possible to play on both guitars at the same time, for instance by using reverberations going from one guitar to the other. The sound is dense and has similarities with gamelan, techno, free improvisation, drone etc.
