If you have time take a listen and give theHumps some feedback.
Took a folk search in the tracks and first one was this. Not surprisingly, I am in on this piece, the flute is the icing of the cake, we abuse all kind of them. The voice is somewhat fragile, and detained, tho it is there. In the lows it goes whisper-like sometimes, but it adds to the mood to me. It makes it sensitive and emotional. Good work. Maybe needless to say, but such music feels more like home to me than much modern stuff. But I am a mummy, so to each, his own. xD
The search you took was prob set for most recently uploaded so naturally mine was at the top. Also there were no flutes used or abused in the track. The sound you are hearing is a Moog Theremini theremin. The preset I used sounds like a flute, granted, but I never touched the instrument while playing it, unlike a flute. I'm not much of a singer, just do it cuz I can and it adds to my tracks to have singing on them.
Awesome! Vocals pair nicely with the instrumentation. I think you have elevated the genre a bit! That ending is pure sweetness. And, now for a bit of a critique (If I may)... there are parts where you vocal races ahead of the music. If you were to re-record your vocal and get it in the pocket, you'd have a flawless song! Well done, Wayne.
It's interesting you mentioned the timing of the singing, good feedback.
I actually did that on purpose. I've listened to countless live performances on youtube and watched so many performers do the same thing. Whether it's done on purpose to break up the monotony of singing the song the same way every time or just the breaking up of everything coming in on the beat, it is commonly done. To sing a song and break up the phrasing so that it isn't always perfect and on time is perfectly acceptable. It just makes the ears work a little harder to hear something that is expected but isn't necessarily wrong either. It's just how I chose to sing it and I re sang it twice to get it right, he. Just my interpretation in the moment. But thanks for inquiring about that.
If you listen even closer, every thing is moving in the song, delays and phasers were put on everything but the drums and automated to some extent.
Thanks Mykael! Hope my explanation helped you see into why I did that.
I remember finding my first gold neckless while i was metal detecting, I was so excited. It was half an ounce of 18 carat gold worth about $1,200. I got the fever then!
well i hadda go and google whidmey isle — still out of power from the storm, it’s been out for over a century.
you are a natural with that theremin thang! go west, young man!
Whidbey Island is just north of Seattle. I chose that and Portland as landing places to and from the Klondike, sounds reasonable enough to me.
I am going through another tropical storm as I type, windy and rainy now, worse to come today and tomorrow. Hope my temporary roof from the last hurricane holds up.
The theremin is like the harmonica, all the right notes are there, it's just finding them with the right hand then, with about 20 seconds of practice you can hone in on where the good notes are. Over 20 scales to chose from which is handy. Gonna be fun seeing how i can utilize this in my music.
Too cool - nice tune, great vocal performance, love the instrumentation
The theremini is 650 bucks in Australia! I had better do some of that backlog of invoicing ; )
Oh wow, that's a lot. It was $100 cheaper a year ago, now $400 in America. Totally fun to play, I actually played the notes in the scale I chose. It's versatile in being able to choose the root note and scale and displays the note you are playing, which is very helpful.

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 : Another simple track... Wonder if my genre selection fits for the tune. :)
Electric guitars by me, every other samples are from the site only. Applied loops :
Description : One of my oceanics. It is a Greek song, short but full of my sentiments about the sea and our land. I am glad to share it with the listeners of LM and of course my friends, co-workers of music.

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 : A folk rock ballad done in 3/4 time.
I am performing all guitars, vocals, bass, shaker and tambourine. Drums and French horns written in MIDI. 2 Apple percussion loops used.
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.

Hey guys, I decided to try to make a track using a LM loop as the foundation! I made this "RnB" loop into something a little more "folk" i guess you could say. I added some filtered strings and tropical precussion behind it, and also gave it the structure of a tropical track as well. I actually have a youtuber who is going to provide vocals for the track so that is why some parts are bare.(so as to leave room for the vocalist to be creative with their writing) I really had lots of fun making this track and look forward to it getting finished off with some quality vocals. I haven't really mixed it well, and the bass during the drop is definitely going to be changed in the final product. If you guys have any critiques/reviews on things that need to be fixed or changed, please feel free to comment!
Description : Wrote it on a relaxing Sunday morning. Acoustic guitar rhythm with an acoustic lead, bass and guiro. Updated: removed some percussion, remixed and mastered.
Description : I had the idea that this lyric could be rapped over my track but not having the skills to do that repurposed Joni's masterful voice - It seems a little jarring at first but I kind of like how it fits as it goes along - My multitracked classical guitar and my constructed beat from various vst kits and 'you know who ' sampled vocal (cut up just a little). Not sure about genre
Feedback welcome

I am very happy with the overall sound and feel of the song. The theremin adds quite a bit of that feeling I think.
Take care!
