Description : My Dad found his old 8-track recorder. I think he was going to ask me if I was interested, but I was already half way to my room with it and a new song forming in my head.
This track is more of a straight-forward folk song. The opening is completely recorded on the 8-track, so it's a bit more lo-fi. Then the track kind of opens up into a cleaner chorus. I hope you enjoy my little experiment.
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.
Description : Adele's Hello geared towards my folk style
hola amigo, me ha gustado mucho tu cancin, sobremanera la musicalidad de tu voz, es agradable, con enorme calidad.Toda la composicin es especial desde los sonidos del piano hasta la calidez de la guitarra. Tiene ese sonido especial de las grabaciones en vivo. Bien hecho compaero. Buen da. Paz y salud.
Hey, I must say that this is beautiful! I've been into folk longer than almost any other sort of music, and I think you've done excellent work in song writing, performance, and recording! Gives me some reminders of Nick Drake, for example, who is one of my favorites. Enjoyed each instrumental part, and your vocals sounded great! I love magnetic tape very much, and would have a lot of fun with an 8 track! Sold my 4 track many years ago, something which I regret a bit. Happy that I found this song of yours! Thank you for letting us hear it! Fave!
Folk also isn't at all my sort of thing but this has a very authentic and warm acoustic sound. It's a million miles from the sort of stuff I make.
Piano sounds good and kind of triumphant with some of those chords you let ring out.
0:59 nice higher piano notes and walking groove.
Guitar is delicate.
Doesn't sound like it's been played to a click.
Good late night chilling music.
Nicely done, good recording.
I see you found your way out of the catacombes. Is that your tape that was found abandonded in the camera? Had to ditch it and run because of a lasagna shortage huh?! When I first stated playing we used a cassette player to record hahaha Eventually my friend got a 4 track recorder. 8 tracks wow! What are you going to do with all those? Sounds good :D I love folk. Maybe next you can do a duet with Joan Baez? Maybe get Erik on organ.
I lived with Tascam 8 track decks for years & wore out the outside heads I used them so much...it makes an honest musician of the user...nowhere to hide...just the music...I noticed the acoustic was nicely recorded but your vocal is the star T.A...good for you....a big well done to you...enjoyed this one...Ed
Folk isnt really my drug of choice but this was an awesome listen, was perfect to just chill out to at nearly 2am in the morning.
I dont think im really qualified to give any advice on how to improve this due to my lack of knowledge on the genre but all in all its a great listen :)
