Your Mix 5

❤️❤️❤️ Thank You all so much for over 2000 plays of this collab track! ❤️❤️❤️

On may 2024 (so it's passed 6 months...) @belial-pelegrim presented to the world Taffeta 189 which can be found here >> https://soundcloud.com/belial-pelegrim/taffeta-189. A masterfully crafted piece from his unfinished story-driven musical series.
From the very beginning, this track fascinated me to such an extent that a melody immediately appeared in my head. In a burst of self-confidence, I asked the Master for the file of this song so that I could put my melodic ideas into it, just like I did with Donak RV's song https://soundcloud.com/r-u-r-pl/duo-melodica-rur-nylon-guitar-remix. And the strangest thing is, he willingly agreed to my idea!
So I tried it and here we are. It's been a while since then, but I think I've finally finished it. I sincerely hope that you will like the effect of this cooperation.

If you are intrigued by this song and you haven't heard the music of @belial-pelegrim yet, and you would like to listen to more (I assure you, it's really worth it!), please visit his profile for more!

To add my two cents to this track, I used the following plugins:
Free Spitfire LABS - Electric Piano - Chorus
Free Spitfire BBC SO Discover - Trumpets, Flutes and Oboes
Free Native Instruments Kontakt 8 Player
Free Heavyocity Foundations - Staccato Strings
Replika XT effect
Free iZotope Ozone 11 EQ
ujam UFX Reverb - which I got for free during the promotion after the publication of this plugin
and also received for free from Novation for their 30th anniversary - iZotope Ozone 9 Elements

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
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

creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.

A little waltz whose title has been shamelessly stolen from Chopin.

Vals Brillante En Mi Bemol - Eb Brilliant Waltz

Christmas With You

Original
These lyrics suddenly showed up in my strange head, I just had to get it out :)
Music made in garageband



Lyrics:

I am like a boat on a foggy stormy sea
Drifting away, feeling lost but free
Don't hold me back
I have to sail for myself
Maybe I can find a safe cliff out there..

But see me
Can you see me
I am waving to you
Hear me
Can you hear me
When I'm calling for you..

Searching for the answers
To the questions I have
The fog will disappear
I will see land again

But see me, can you see me
I am waving to you..
Hear me
Can you hear me
When I'm calling for you..

Don't hold me back
I have to sail for myself
The fog will disappear
I will see land again...

See Me  (Original)

Where Are You Now...

The wacky adventures of Inspector Looso - Traffic Agent Looso

soundcloud.com/user-461764443/sets/the-wacky-adventures-of

Inspector Looso just had a so called lateral promotion. This is the politically correct way used by the Human Resources to bump someone out of his chair. In fact he was demoted down the food chain since he goofed so many times and missed finding the criminals he was supposedly chasing. Luc Looso is now Traffic Agent in Paris at the corner of Rue des Deux Boules and Rue Bertin Poirée where he should be of no harm for anybody but guess what. He fucked-up again. 

The End

“This story is a work of fiction. Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events, is purely coincidental. The corner of Rue des Deux Boules and Rue Bertin Poirée do exist and you can see it on Google Street. Perfect spot for Looso.

Music by: Syrel

 
Musical Notes: You may recognize the inspiration from An American in Paris by George Gershwin, the Candide overture by Leonard Bernstein, a bit of The Pink Panther soundtrack by Henry Mancini as well as many other great composers when they writes funny music such as Tchaikovsky in the Nuts Crackers and Sergey Prokofiev  in Peter and the Wolf.

I'm immensely thankful to David for the deeply emotional and achingly beautiful flavour that he has added to my original piano piece.

Please listen to David’s majestic compositions here: @user-92820487

Thank you very much for your listening and support of this music. We always greatly appreciate it.

Tout Casse (Ft. David De Michele)

This is a song originally written and performed by Soundcloud artist 'A Girl From Wonder' (@user-712848711), whose music I've admired for a while. I've loved this one since the first time I heard it, and aways wanted to try some sort of collaboration, but it's hard to mess with the stark simple beauty of the original. But here's my attempt to add some dashes of colour to her voice and guitar strumming, adding instruments like upright bass, organ, banjo, cello, and percussion. The banjo parts are mainly a bunch of sound samples I found and cut up and arranged to fit in with the melody I wanted to play (wish I could just play banjo instead!). I tried to keep her evocative voice the main focal point, and we're both pretty happy with how this turned out. 

Thanks again Brittany for letting me work with your song, it's pretty special. 

Here's the original, and I encourage folks to check it out as well as other great tunes on her page. Thanks for listening!

Dans la vie, il y a des événements pour lesquels il n'est pas toujours possible d'anticiper ou de maîtriser et pour lesquels, il est légitime d’être plus préoccupé, plus stressé que d’habitude. De ce fait, la musique aide souvent à passer ce cape, de ce moment du quotidien très perturbé.
Ici, cela pourrait être l'image aux résonances expressives de cet épisode si particulier ….

****************************************************************************************************

In life, there are events for which it is not always possible to anticipate or master and for which, it is legitimate to be more concerned, more stressed than usual. As a result, music often helps to pass this cape, from this very disturbed daily moment. 
Here, it could be the image with expressive resonances of this very particular episode ....

Beyond The Light ....

Please enjoy my latest offering to you all. It is another seagoing inspired track. Over the years I have seen many deep ocean whales in their natural setting but only once have I seen a pod and it was awesome. There must of been at least twenty of them spread across the bow at distance. I immediately reported my sightings to the captain who immediately stopped engines.  He went on to explain that in this situation you have two choices you can go hard to starboard or port depending on our postion relative to the whales course or simply stop the engines and take in the view explaining the chances of seeing another pod this large is very remote. this all happened long before smartphones came along so we had no way of recording the event. This took place when I was nineteen and I am now 71 and it is a memory that has stayed with me all these years. So I say to all our fantastic young people .... You are at the stage in your life were you are creating your memories .... .don't waste a minute. Thank you all for the great support you give me.... love and peace..
