MARIUSZ DUDA | CLAUSTROPHOBIC UNIVERSE 
cover by Dan van den Berg

This cover is off an album by Mariusz Duda, member of the band Lunatic Soul, made during lockdown and to me that explains the title of this track. Although it’s also a funny contradiction, calling an endless universe claustrophobic. The original features some acoustic piano, although heavily processed and brought into an environment of electronic sounds especially a synthesized arpeggio part that accompanies the entire track and gives it a constant drive. 
I liked the track immediately and could imagine an acoustic guitar version, so I arranged it as such, trying also the reproduce some of the electronic effects manually. Everything here is classical / flamenco technique fingerpicking though. 

I hope you’ll enjoy my cover and in case you don’t know the original, please find it here: https://youtu.be/IenweoqlyKs

As always I really enjoy your likes, shares and comments!

♥️ Movie Score , Orchestral and Classical Music.  Thank you for stopping by! 🎼

I love creative music.  Music helps us to have good times, so necessary in the day to day. I hope my music fulfills that end.
  

Welcome to my page.

I appreciate all the comments, likes and repost that you leave me in my compositions.

I make music for fun and to get away. I have multiple styles, although my biggest influence is in electronic music.

I am self taught and learned with Music Studio 2 on a first generation ipad 11 years ago. I have never composed before. Perform more than 80 songs a year for the first 6-7 years to learn about the program and develop creativity to compose. I have listened to different types of music throughout my life and maybe that has helped me.

I still compose only with an ipad (last generation), but I no longer work only with native MS2 instruments since I have expanded my instrument library with programs such as Audiokit, Digital D1, kv331, Sunrizer, etc ...

My music can be downloaded, but not used for commercial purposes (my authorization is required).

During the last two years I have encouraged myself to collaborate with professional or self-taught musicians like me. Are these:

Annie Smart

Dan DT

Loue ghazi

Lukowig

Mirjam Keijnemans

Nathalie B20

Subzero

Vicent

Winkanwoo

Thanks for visiting. This is a retro eclectic music mix with looming influences from among others Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Lou Reed & Jon Lord. Mostly I write about the human condition.

I am always looking for a guitar player that wants to collaborate. Would be fun to find a real drummer also.

I encourage everybody on SC to listen more and be less transactional.

This site is for my musical avatar or alter ego. Architect/partner/company owner by day, I find myself playing guitar and writing these tracks in afterhours, at nights, evenings, when in need of a dose of guitar sounds. You will find a wide range of guitar oriented music, ranging from Jazz to Blues, Flamenco to Classical, Rock to Fusion. And many collaborations with some great musicians.

I have been playing guitar since I was 11 years old, largely self-taught and have tried different styles and instruments: Renaissance lute, flamenco guitar, classical guitar, steel string guitar and electric guitar with which I have been playing in styles ranging from rock and metal in my early years to classical music, some American Folk music, jazz rock, prog rock, flamenco nuevo and fusion.

It’s been a splendid time here so far, in collaborating with a lot of brilliant musicians on SoundCloud and sharing ideas and the passion for music. 
My collaborations are with musicians that I have a deep respect for and have a mutual appreciation for real instruments, and musical styles that focus on letting the instruments “shine”. 

Here is some technical data:
Currently I am using Amplitube and Auria on an iPad as DAW with Final Touch for mastering. For acoustic recording I use an Apogee microphone.

Guitars are:
Fender AMERICAN ELITE STRATOCASTER® HSS SHAWBUCKER, 2016
Fender Stratocaster Squire (first edition: JV-series)
Ibanez JS100, Joe Satriani model
Evh Frankie Striped MN Relic R/W/B

EVH 5150 Series Standard Stealth Black EB guitar
Fender American Professional II Stratocaster HSS Olympic White RW
Charvel Pro-Mod DK24 HSH 2PT CM Mahogany Natural
Paulino Bernabe, Taller de Guitarras, Model-50, 2001, classical concert guitar
Marín, Modelo Estudio /9 Calidad, 1997, Malaga, Spain, flamenco guitar
Joan Cashimira, modelo 145, spruce top w/ cocobolo sides and back, Gata de Gorgos (Alicante), 2015

I hope you will enjoy my music.

Hi, I'm a classical pianist with over 30 years of practice. I've been surrounded by music my whole life. I've studied music since I was 4 years old all the way through high school and college. I started recording my own compositions. I love the modern composers making music for film. I can always find inspiration there. I love the complexity of the arrangements. 

Enjoy the music, like and subscribe :)
