@user-138663860: Thanks so much, Sandy! A wonderful composer Arnalds is, and I really enjoyed arranging his song for guitar...

Prachtige versie! De pure delicate gitaarklanken doen in niets onder voor de naïeve natuurklanken van het origineel. En schitterend uitgevoerd en opgenomen!

That's lovely, I'll check out the original.

Absolutely magical. Such majesty in your immaculate playing!🎶🎶🎶💫👍🤝🤝🤝🙏🙏

Atceries | Remember (Solo Version)

Just a small electric guitar solo from my CD Keepsakes. Emika – Japanese – blessed, beautiful child.  

The youtube video link below is of the song Emika from photos of Tori Yamashita's extremely cute dog Kooza at various sites in Japan.

Look in the shade. You may find quiet beauty that does not seek the all - day limelight of the sun.

Shade

Fingerstyle playing has been a passion for me for over 45 years, having fallen in love with it when I first heard a college friend play with his fingers instead of a pick.  It was mesmerizing and I determined then and there I must learn how.  This song is the first I wrote using fingerstyle and has followed me around now for over 40 years evolving as I learned more playing technique.  I think it is still evolving, but this is where it is now; shades of light and shadow, good times, difficult times, hopefully full of the Grace of God. It is a musical portrait of me.  Performance note:  only one guitar used, the Taylor JKSM, standard tuning, no overdubbing--strictly solo fingerstyle.

A Memory Fades

A memory Fades

Jim Perkins - A Memory Fades

"The pianist Bruno Sanfilippo invites us on an intimate and nostalgic journey through his new single, 'Buenos Aires 1969,' another advance of his upcoming album 'Pianette 2,' set to be released on March 14th. The piece captures the very essence of his childhood in Buenos Aires during the evocative '60s. His ability to convey emotions through the piano reveals the richness of his experiences during his youth in Argentina. 'Buenos Aires 1969' is accompanied by an emotional video that incorporates authentic images from his childhood, revealing intimate family moments that inspired the creation of the piece." ad21

La mélodie délicate de "ROMANCE" évoque les sentiments les plus profonds de l'âme. Parfait pour vous perdre dans une atmosphère envoûtante, et vous transporter dans un monde où chaque note raconte une histoire !

"Romance"

This is the 5th track and a sad but gentle piano solo song included in '24 Piano Sketches' that is a new solo album from Yuki Murata, the Tokyo-based pianist/composer and member of the cinematic instrumental music band, Anoice, and its side projects, RiLF and Films, who fascinates music fans in the world by her lovely melodies and piano sounds.

As the name suggests, '24 Piano Sketches' includes 24 piano songs which Yuki Murata plays improvisations on her own grand and upright pianos. This long project is going to add 2 songs every month and ultimately 24 songs in one year, allowing the listeners to feel the changing of the season in real-time via the beautiful, warm, and sometimes melancholic piano sounds.

This time, she purposely selected a cassette tape recorder, a MiniDisc player, and an early generation of iPhone as the recording equipments for each song, unlike studio albums from her own bands such as Anoice. These retro and simplistic recording devices were able to capture not only a creaking noise coming from the piano and the environmental sounds outside the window, but also a noise occurred by cheap microphones, which make this album so impressive. Its nostalgic soundscape may remind her listeners of her first solo album 'Films' and second solo album 'Home'.

You should feel the changing of the seasons with the beautiful piano melodies.

WOVEN SONG | OLAFUR ARNALDS(COVER)

There is something deeply moving and profound in Icelandic composer Ólafur Arnald's music. Music of serenity and melancholy. I made this cover of one of his latest pieces on his new album that is really just released. I find something in this song that conjures up deep emotions for me. In the original Ólafur has used a recording of a Rainforest tribe singing what seems to be a lullaby...

In his words:
“Woven Song” features a piano alongside Amazonian tribal chanting, which has a connection to me as I have friends who are from the same tribe. I always want my instruments to be very soft and quiet, as I feel more comfortable and free to explore them musically. When it’s so quiet, you have to put the microphone close and then you start hearing the mechanical action and creaking–even from the piano stool. It’s a wonderful side effect. When I’d finished this track, I knew exactly what this album needed to be.

– Ólafur Arnalds

I hope you'll enjoy this little and humble cover of this beautiful music, please check Ólafur's music out, it's wonderful.  As always I really enjoy your comments, likes and share. Thank you!

Woven Song

Woven Song | Ólafur Arnalds (Cover)| Dan van den Berg

“There is nothing permanent except change.” – Heraclitus.

The music industry (like many things) has changed greatly since I bought my first 45 record (Green Eyed Lady) at my hometown record shop in 1970. It would be very easy to lament over these changes (and I have.) However, with change comes new opportunities, and thanks to websites/apps like Soundcloud we musicians and composers have the opportunity to to be heard as never before. So thank you Soundcloud and thank you for visiting my page. - Jim Combs

New Album out now! https://danielvandenberg.bandcamp.com/album/short-tales-for-three-guitars

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.
