Description : This is our tribute to John Martyn may he rest in peace. No copyright infringement is intended, this has been made not for profit, just as a small thank you to an awesome talent. A big thanx to 12string, who went to great lengths to make sure the guitar work was as close as possible to the original.
Description : Update Nov 11.: Mastered
Many might be surprised to hear music here that lies somewhere between chanson and folk.
We wanted to write a song that wasn't dominated by synth or electric sounds. The text was written by Claudia Boekels, the music largely by Angelica Schwanitz and to a lesser extent by Manuela Boekels.
We were especially looking forward to the wonderful collaboration with Tanja Wirtz, who has great talent on the accordion, and Danior, who can make his violin cry.
Description : What happens when a short but hypnotic celtic intro turns into something completely different? The most noteworthy collaborator on this track (yeah you guessed, it's Tumbleweed) answered correctly to this question! A newly patented musical genre is what happens...yes..."SlovenianCelticCowboyMusic" is born. Sometimes we just have to cut off from being too serious...The version presented here has been carefully chosen from 4856 or so mixes...
As always all thanks to my dear friend Ed who makes such wonders possible to happen.....

Description : I was told to do a better description this time. Blast you, Dr. Evil! You know descriptions are my one weakness!
I just couldn't get this one to sound right but Micky added accompaniment that sounds great. All music is by him. This song is the 1st modernized song I know of using Mohegan language.
Translations are in the lyrics.
Please do let us know what you think about it, and if you are now afraid of zombie children in meadows.
Description : I had a lot of fun recording my last folk song, so I thought I'd take a stab at recording another one. This time I limited myself to 2 for all my vocals and instruments (guitar, piano, ukulele and organ). Enjoy the song and leave a comment letting me know your thoughts :)
Description : This is a country/folk track in a genre I don't do much, so I thought I'd give it a go. It also has some instruments I don't use much, namely the banjo, mandolin and fiddle. I got the title from a movie I saw a few months ago. Hope you enjoy, Scott.
Description : Kindofa '60s work song. Another song from my collab with Sunny War. This is the first song on our album HELP which we should get done this month. This song started with looperman-l-0498019-0072501-tumbleweed-90-g-slow-train-rhythm, a great rhythm guitar riff; the song just emerged out of it without effort. Props to Tumbleweed and his great guitar loops which I have often used. Then there were three other loops, drum, piano and lead guitar. Sunny replaced the guitar loops with her acoustic picking, using Tumbleweed's loop as the inspiration. The drum and piano loops remain: looperman-l-1703213-0101854-deathsquadktown-1994-inspired-hip-hop-drum-beat 90, looperman-l-0592478-0101770-designedimpression-piano-loop-will-power-94 g. Thank you, loopers! Feedback please!
Description : Start the new year off with a folk song about a train, a song about taking the long way home. This one is for Stobe the Hobo, RIP.
Description : I wanted to do something different like i do normaly. And I think that I was successful.
A -drum n chill folk song-. A kind of hippie music in colorful garb of the modern era.
At the end of the track there is a bonus.
Something in the way of bonfire music.

Description : Totally different story here as I wondered if I manage to capture the real feel of the genuine folk music which I love as much as the electronic one. I also added some classical twist like oboe or short cellos arpeggio. Very basic arrangement though, still feel more confident with pure electronic sounds.

Description : A short folk instrumental number with drums, bass, acoustic guitar, mandolin, cello and harmonica. I would say this is more an interlude than a song, something to put between songs.

Very nicely done, acoustic sounds great, voice is perfect as well. Thanks for sharing you did this justice.
Kyle
I'm so sorry it took me so long to get over here and listen to this! It's two fabulous performances that join together to be very powerful! Fantastic work! Faved for sure!
Simple and wonderful: I love the sound of the guitar (thanks to 12Strings for sharing the details of his setup with us) and the vocal part is very "well done".
Nothing to say: very controlled singing and clear tone.
I don't know the original, so I cannot say anything on that point, but I can say that like what I hear!
Good job!
Ciao, Domenico
Hi Kenny...a big well done to you and 12String...you might not know it, but in spite of the fact that I make some cluttered tracks & lots of noises, I would just as soon listen to a good song with an acoustic guitar for accompaniment...so suffice to say...I really enjoyed this one a lot....Ed
Awesome Job guys :D
I agree with crucethus on this because I Definetely heard a similarity to lightfoot on this song! Anyway, great guitar playing and great voice !
I cant hate on this.This really nice.good work
Beautiful work here!
/Anders
I love this!!.
Beautiful voice and great guitar work.
The vocals, guitar and combined emotion and tone on this are really very good. I'm guessing any further analysis won't be appreciated so I'll just leave it at that.
Great job guys, awesome guitar playing and sound. Kenny, you have an awesome voice, you should sing more. I watched the video you did as well. I'll have to give John's music some more airtime around here, he seems to be a great singer songwriter. Well done, it sounds great!
Wayne
Beautiful song. I loved your voice on this. Reminds me if you combined Jos Feliciano and Gordon Lightfoot. Faved for sure!
Steve
@RichieWinn I used a Tanglewood Heritage TW 55 HB through a Titan SE Mic. I Used Ableton Live 9 to record it dry. Then sent it to Kenny to sing over. Thanks for asking.
Don't know this artist either but I'm under the spell of this song, Kenny . That's a gorgeous tribute, so full of emotion and purity . Moved me a lot . I love 12string's guitar and your voice is wonderful . Last track of the day for me and I'm very lucky it's this one .
Thanks a lot for this blissful moment,
Bises to you both :)
This sounds dope my friend! Very relaxing piece of music! Well done!
I stand and applaud you! It's so refreshing to hear a voice and an instrument so nicely put together and "naked". What mic? reverb? guitar? did you use please?
Richie
Hey Kenny!
Though I don't know this song and this artist, your interpretation is awesome...your voice got some "salt and pepper", I mean it's so unique...
Beautiful!!!
Thanx for letting me know this man!
Danke
Alors l je dit bravo!
La voix et la guitare sont superbes, le son est excellent et l'interprtation magnifique.
J'coute rarement du folk, mais l a fait vraiment du bien!
