2024 Remix and Remaster version to bring it up to the standard of the later album tracks for full album release in 2025.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This Cinematic-style Celtic Fantasy is loosely based around an ancient Celtic gathering on Lindisfarne and had me researching the Common Brittonic language to get some interesting 'Foley' sounds. It was spoken in Britain and Brittany and eventually developed into Old Welsh, Cumbric, Cornish, and Breton. It also features my long suffering wife who over time has become a quasi- Foley artist and harmony part singer for me.

The Metheglin of the title is the oil that makes the celebration happen and is a type of spiced mead, so basically fermented honey with spices added. It also obliquely connects to Lindisfarne mead and also the bees featured in 'By Castle Walls'.

I wanted to get a sort of cinematic feel to be dropped into a Celtic Festival or feast day and I hoped the language and children's laughter would aid in the immersion. Finally in this project I get to do a fair bit of bouzouki playing which was a plus.

So hopefully you will enjoy the feast .... "búwa slanos ac swos"

This track is now part of "The Pilgrims Way Project" exploring the history and natural world of Lindisfarne.

Instrumentation

A Taste of Metheglin features low and high whistles, harp, strings, violin, alto-flute, a choir backing and bouzouki. Percussion consists of bodhrán, clapping, various taps and knocks, shaker and even tapping on my acoustic guitar.

Vocal FX is a combination of Brittonic vocalisations and a backing line from the Soundiron 'Voices of Gaia' collection featuring the vocal talents of Linda Strawberry.

Some of the percussion sounds come from the excellent playable VST instrument set "Flying Hands Percussion" by HandHeld Sound

A sea waves sound FX and children laughing FX that are classed as Public Domain are used to add colour to the track from www.freesound.org

Background

This track is a combination of VST-based instrumentation and real-playing of instruments with additional clapping, tapping and knocking, all overlaid with original Foley sounds.

I wanted to try and get a well developed rhythmic feel and maybe the feel of circular dancing that hopefully comes out from the track.

My page for re-posting great Souncloud music...whatever the genre. Listen to Pelegrim at https://www.soundcloud.com/belial-pelegrim

Dude from the hills. Thankyou for taking the time to listen and supporting my works, it is very much appreciated.

My new EP, 'maisey moore' under CRSY is out now. Check it out via the links below :-) if you'd like a free code for the Bandcamp release then just give us a shout
Still CRSY, just fancied a name change 😁

I’m a song-writer who enjoys creating music of any genre.

My son recently introduced me to A.I. and taught me how to do covers of my previously released non-A.I. music. Since I've never considered myself a performer (except playing with worship bands at church or solo-piano at a rehab center) using A.I. is right up my alley.

Since I've  exhausted using my previously released music for A.I. covers, I now compose music in a DAW, rip to a wave file, and make an A.I. cover of this wave file. I then write lyrics to the A.I. music. It takes around 100 A.I. iterations to complete the lyrics and get a style I'm happy with.  

Brief Bio: Lived more than a quarter of my life overseas (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan). Each country gave me an appreciation for different types of music plus probably why I get bored easily in sticking with one genre or another.

FREEDOM OF OPINION - FREEDOM OF THOUGHT - FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION

Some say I don't mince words. I sometimes say terrible things, as well as sweet and superfluous ones. I can love and hate, but I always maintain respect for those who love me or provoke me.

Currently, the world is changing dangerously. Those responsible are not always who we think. And those who deserve punishment are undoubtedly those who cause it, but even more so those who instigate it.

I like Americans and I like Russians. What I appreciate much less is the politics of these countries, their leaders, their underlings, and their administrations... In France, it must be admitted that things have been a real mess for the past few years, and there's nothing we can do about it. We joined the European Union, which now imposes its directives, which dark and idiotic "governors" implement without a word, since their countries are no longer sovereign.

We knew the USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics)... and now we are 27 countries in the UESR (Union of European Socialist Republics).

This UESR is a monumental mistake, not the very beginning, but the one it has become, an entity that relentlessly pursues its devastating expansionism, which also allows NATO bases in the countries of the union, and which the Russians consider a direct threat. Well, I understand them!

Remember the Cuban Missile Crisis from October 14 to 27, 1962, a diplomatic and military confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union was "too close" and represented a direct threat! It was almost the beginning of World War III, so the Soviet Union withdrew its missiles. Let the United States do the same now by withdrawing its NATO nuclear missiles, which it has deployed throughout the European Union.

The European Union promised us peace—which is, after all, why it was created—but now it wants war. It must be said that what the European Union has lacked (from the very beginning!) is a common defense, which was not the case for the former Soviet Union or even for the United States today.

The United States of Europe is like the frog that wanted to be bigger than the ox. Without a common defense, it is headed for certain doom, or it relies on NATO for its defense, but the game is no longer the same and would be much more dangerous for the entire world. This is where forced expansionism leads.

Peace on Earth to people of goodwill - ❤️🕊️🙏

Just a Cosmic Pilgrim wandering around Life, the Universe, and Everything,  So far, 42 makes about as much sense as anything else ;)

Forced to learn the Piano at age 6.  I Hated it.  Became inspired by music as a Chorister.  Became a serious musician as a teenager, studied to Diploma standard and enjoyed itinerancy for a while.  Yes it was fun!

Real life had other ideas for some decades, but now retired, the Muse once again beckons.  Only this time I can go wherever the Muse takes me.  Often I have no idea where it will be.  And that is fun.

Here on Soundcloud you will find a mix of style and genres, maybe even a morphing with my own.  My comfort zone is Classical but then it gets a bit less distinct.

Prog Rock is a big influence no question, but I like to wander if the Muse moves, so don't be surprised if the style changes during a piece.  I'm sorry if it doesn't work for you.  Do make a comment if so.

Once upon a time I had to go through the rigorous trials of examinations and testing as a scholar and performing Classical musician, where every detail is critical and the technical focus is intense.

Now I have no judgement other than like or dislike.  Enjoy or not.  There is no 'good' or 'bad' music.  That now sounds pretentious to me.  I do what I like and enjoy.  I listen to what I like and enjoy.  

I spend no time putting down other music, and I have endless admiration for anyone who tries to play or create music no matter their ability.  They should always be encouraged not disparaged.

My partner used to ask me how I could put up with the sound of 6 year olds starting to learn the violin when I was teaching, as if this was a torment.  It obviously was for her.

But for me it was a privilege.  Every inch of progress was a shared conquest towards something special.  The screeching and scratching was music to my ears not a torment.  I suppose that is the difference?

Thank you for stopping by.  Hope you enjoy something.

Welcome to my SoundCloud page.  It serves as a jar of sorts, to catch the musical ideas flying around in my head!  My hope is that you find something to listen to that offers encouragement and refreshes your soul.

All music is original with a few exceptions (such as new arrangements of old Christmas songs, etc.).  All music has been composed and performed with absolutely no AI-assistance.  I primarily perform and record on the Yamaha MODX8, with an occasional recording on my older Yamaha Clavinova.  You will also find collaborative works on my page, featuring some other amazing musicians on SoundCloud.

It is a joy to share my music with you, and I hope you enjoy listening!
