Eivind Aarset? He lives in Norway and has played with Hassel now and
then. Known for his typical fretless guitar sound by e-bow and
microsynth. (Not very Hassell-ish though IMHO. But his buddy, the
trumpet player Nils Petter Molvaer owes quite a lot to Hassel, so
maybe you've heard them two guys play together and recognized Hassel
vibe from the trumpet guy?)
