i picked up my mandolin which is a very happy instrument and tried to see if it could cry....
my daughter heard it and said "so sad" hence the title and here is what my mandolin crying sounds like

so sad

I am a finger-style guitarist living on the Texas high plains.  At the core of my music is melody that is inspired and informed by my Christian faith, family, friends, and countless influences through the years from the great composers, to jazz, folk, rock, Latin, Celtic, and the many fine musicians I have come to love on the Cloud, some I have been privileged to collaborate with.  Thanks for stopping by to have a listen. Comments are always welcome. Feel free to click on the picture of any track to learn more about it.

Having spent some time away I have returned and hopefully this year will contain some inspiration and new compositions to titillate the ears

This is account for testing instruments, programs and equipment, for made, fixed, molded, modified musical instruments, fixed, tested pedals, ect.

I do all this for fun, as hobby. My day work is elsewhere.
All this material is made by me, only me.

Mostly used single instrument is Roland FA08, which I use to make a base to play other instruments.

Thank you for interest, be well and safe there 🙏😊👍

Hello my dear friends. I  love music that gives me goosebumps.  I 'm looking for it through experiments with rhythms, sounds and harmony.  So far I haven't succeeded yet.  Music is my life. I’m Fred, 70 years, born in Diest, Belgium on August 8, 1954.  I am grateful for all the given likes and comments, for all the listeners and followers here on SC or on all the other streaming services where my music is publiced. I’m also grateful to all these artists and musicians who put their beautiful music on SC.  Thanks everyone.  Keep it healthy.  Take care of each other and sow peace!

From Wikipedia: In Greek mythology, a satyr, sater (UK /ˈsætə/, US /ˈseɪtər/;[1] Greek: σάτυρος satyros,[2] pronounced [sátyros]) is one of a troop of ithyphallic male companions of Dionysus with goat-like features and often permanent erection.[3] Early artistic representations sometimes include horse-like legs, but in 6th-century BC black-figure pottery human legs are the most common.[4] In Roman Mythology there is a concept similar to satyrs, with goat-like features: the faun, being half-man, half-goat, who roamed the woods and mountains.[5] In myths they are often associated with pipe-playing. Greek-speaking Romans often used the Greek term saturos when referring to the Latin faunus, and eventually syncretized the two. (The female "Satyresses" were a later invention of poets.)
With the characters A and T, my initials, stops every similarity between this description and myself.

Thx for visiting and listening, I am an amateur guitarist, play a little keybord, bass and drums too. I love music.

The world around us is inexorably changing and all this is happening not without the help of the human race, the Earth is our home and now it is not just a big anthill in outer space, but the starting point of the mind, from here and into distant worlds.
