Nice! That is a tricky little tune. (AKA “Who’s Been Here Since I’ve Been Gone?” as the soldier returns to his pregnant wife)

I recorded with my iMac Quicktime app. Don’t know why I didn’t think of it before, it was much easier than fiddling with a camera or device. Not much new, just a bit faster. I played 3x through, trying to build up stamina. When I play for reals with other people, the tune may last a long time, not just a few times through.

And I look like I’m reading the music, but I’m not. Just focused on the music in my head.

Trying my best to do about one a day! Thankfully I remembered to have them give my Covid shot in the left arm, since it doesn’t have to move as much as the right arm!
Frustrating to have to match up the videos on iMovie, since I can’t find any really fine controls. But good enough for this purpose.

I fired up my Raagini drone in D Major this afternoon, and it goes great with four Scottish/Irish laments on this rainy April day in Covid Times, reminding me of bagpipes. It’s either depressing or uplifting, depending on your point of view.
I hoped to add some interest by using some photos from Ireland/Scotland trips we took in the past few…[Read more]

You can see that I don’t try to “fix the video up.” If I messed around trying to make it look nice, then I would never get it up there. Since I have my regular YouTube channel I share a lot of stuff on, I don’t particularly want these practice blurbs thrown in the mix, so I use another account to post them.

Can anyone tell me where the link is to the student hang out? Iโve looked throughout the community tab and canโt find it. Also I joined the beginner group and tried to respond to a comment but that Page doesnโt seem to be working.

This is Day 8 and so far the only video I dare to share! I started at 80bpm and this has increased to 108bpm (for some reason my metronome increases by 4bpm!) I’ve been slowing the different segments of the tune in order to be able to play them faster when put back together as Jason suggests.

Still sounding good Carolyn!

No banjo this time, only a quick practice today. Up to 160bpm.

Last weekend I finished a recording session with my old friend Joe Rut. Overall, it went well. We did six tunes in about two and a half days. Three of these are long form “fiddle raga” pieces, while the other […]

Jason, I love the sound of the new tune “To You….” very hypnotic it reminds me a bit of Sigur Ros.

Thanks @joanneiles
I’m a big fan of Sigur Ros.

The clip of your song is quite nice. Thank goodness you moved through or around the roadblocks to its creation and completion.

Very, very pretty song ” To You (and everyone else wandering in the world.)”

thanks Owen ๐

Hi Jason, what a lovely relaxed vibe. It’s unmistakably you; light fiddle and drone/indian music drone box thingy. It’s a hit!
