Merci pour le parental advisory "Warning, contains mandolins!" C'est pas tomber dans l'oreille d'un manchot… Celle-là est simplement fabuleuse! Pour moi, c'est pas tout à fait du East European comme tu le dis, mais plutôt assez proche du folk yemeno-israelien comme le joue si bien le groupe britiche The Burning Bush. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbINHIUEc_AtcVrGA_NFnYUyuKbfGtMku -Anyway, peu importe les étiquettes… Ta forêt de mandolines n'a pas fini de pousser dans mes oreilles ce matin! Et puis ça groove façon derviche tourneur vraiment sérieux! Bravo Samy. Repost+download!

What a seamless cross-cultural sound. Feels and sounds great.

Trop trop bon ce "Quest for Something", Samy ! Que ta muse revienne vite de vacances…

Piece I created with mandolin/guitars + other instruments added electronically. Most of the mandolin parts are recorded twice and superimposed, which might give an impression that there were a lot of people playing. - but that was just me playing at different positions in space-time.

Quest for Something

Playing and creating some music, drawing cartoons and baking bread. That's what I like to do!
I play guitar and mandolin. I used to play sitar and learn Hindustani music - but not anymore - so you might hear some influence in my music, especially the pieces with mandolin. I don't play accordion, despite my profile photo. I wish I could pay it though, and many other instruments.

Some selected reviews written by my cat in the in-house Music & Arts magazine: 

"The equivalent of an acoustic waterboarding!"
"Music? What music?"
"Just noise"
"No place to sleep with all these instruments"
"A daily torture"
"I wish I was deaf"
"Noise arrogantly called music"
"A pleasure... when it stops"
"Can't even unsubscribe to this"

I'm very glad to have stumbled upon very fine artists on Soundcloud and honored to have collaborated with some very talented individuals.
