Name: One - String Boogie by hanklebury
Duration: 3 min 23 s
Description: I fixed up an old broken baritone uke and didn't have a set of strings. So I started out with a piece of weed whacker line for the 4th string. I liked the sound pretty much with that string by itself and took it into our bathroom, with its lovely natural acoustics, to record a bit.

a good one-reminds me a bit of the African musician Habib Koité

Missed this one Hank...grooving along with the one string :-)

wow....  this is really cool!  great acoustics.  i just love the raw energy of this.

I’m a 2.4mm guy myself this sounds close :) strimmer on this side of the pond ,but  I like the sound of whacked Weeds.

Dammit Hank, you get more out of one string than I can out of six :))

You got the rhythm pouring outta your soul Hank and I can envision this as many creative collabs.

This is magic. I shouldn't be surprised, because you made magic out of some big pipes you found on a bike ride. But still. Did you...put a peg for a fifth string on that uke?

公園

■歌詞
今日は　いつもより　早起きをして　鏡の前で　行ったり　来たり
昨日あわてて買った　シャツを羽織ってみる「これだ」

待ち合わせは　この場所に　12時半　
公園近くのオープンカフェで待つ　

何だか　この胸が　どきどき　苦しいな
少しだけ　涼しい風が　夏の終わりを告げた時
君が僕に手を振った

君はあまりにも軽やかな笑顔　多分　秋の　妖精　なんだろう
冷めたコーヒーを急いで飲み干して　君の魔法にかかりにゆく

少しだけ顔を　赤くして
何気ない会話も楽しいね

何だか　二人で歩く　公園は別世界
歩く音も　葉っぱの色も　匂いも　鮮やかだね
君の顔を木漏れ日が照らす

何だか　この胸が　わくわく　楽しいな
少しだけ　冷たい風が　僕らの間を通り抜けた時
手と手が触れあって　驚いた君の目
君と僕の　時間が　止まる

■ Lyrics (Google Translate)
Today I get up earlier than usual and come and go in front of the mirror
I tried putting on the shirt I bought in a hurry yesterday "This is it"

The meeting is at this place at 12:30
Wait at the open cafe near the park

Somehow, this chest is throbbing and painful
When a little cool breeze signals the end of summer
You waved at me

You're a too light smile, maybe an autumn fairy
Hurry up and drink the cold coffee and go to your magic

Make your face a little red
Casual conversation is also fun

Somehow, walking with two people, the park is a different world
The sound of walking, the color of the leaves, and the smell are vivid.
Sunbeams illuminate your face

Somehow, this chest is exciting and fun
When a little cold wind passes between us
Your eyes were surprised when your hands touched each other
Your and my time stops

■概要
少し涼しくなってきたので、秋をイメージして曲を作ってみました(^^)(2021/9/5)。

■ Overview
It's getting a little cooler, so I made a song with the image of autumn (^^) (2021/9/5).

Music for a fictive art exhibition - a minimal ambient track that would be suitable to surround the viewer while exploring an art exhibition. The music tries to create a certain tension, a kind of 'awareness', that would support the visual process rather than draw the complete attention of the viewer to the music.

Cheap beer and dark bars and banjos that ring...these are a few of my favorite things.

Thanks for listening, and thanks for creating!
