Description:
This collaboration was initiated by the exceedingly talented cjhoose (make sure you check out her stuff).
The track began with CJ experimenting on a Mini Mac using GB2 and was then passed over to for me to add some fiddle. This was my first MJ collab and to be honest I found it quite tough - especially as CJ's music seemed quite complete to me already.
For my part - I used my trusty Ted Brewer electric fiddle with ZoomPlayer 1010 effects unit and iMac G5 running GB2.

Nice tune! &mdash 10/11/05 - 03:52:45 AM
Thanks for dropping by IGM - spent a lot of time trying to get the mix right,
glad you picked up on the dynamics. [ Reply to This ]
Love the way &mdash 10/10/05 - 03:50:20 PM
... the fiddle breaks out at the end with those tablas and the bell. It's
like it was leading up to that point... [ Reply to This ]
Love the way &mdash 10/13/05 - 06:12:47 PM
That's exactly how envisioned it - I had a kind of story in mind to shape the
track but I won't let on what it is 'coz it's a bit trite... [ Reply to This ]
Nice one &mdash 10/11/05 - 04:52:29 AM
Dark, atmospheric and original. Nice combination of instruments.
It really comes together in the last minute or so when the fiddle
gets more lively. Great stuff. I'm a jealous pagan and I'd certainly
dance to it. [ Reply to This ]
Nice one &mdash 10/13/05 - 06:09:09 PM
Thanks Rebsie - interesting piece to work on, the underlying structure was CJ's
and basically I exagerated it. It was fun building it up to such a climax [ Reply to This ]

Clever title :)
Really liked the phasing effect on the fiddle. Gave it a mystic feel.
The final bit gave me goose bumps. Excellent fiddlework and great
accompanying percussion.
Nice to be welcomed back home with such great tracks!
Excellent work! [ Reply to This ]

Welcome back Einar! The title was CJ's and actually I'm accompanying her
percussion rather than the other way around! Glad you enjoyed it.

I recognize CJ's drum style right from the start. The fiddle sounds cool
also. It builds and progresses nicely. Some say it sounds eastern, but I
think it sounds Celtic? Especially at the end. Cool title.

You're right there's definitely some Celt in there particularly the fiddle line at the
end which is effectively a Scots style reel - incidentally I'm going to take this
phrase and turn it into a longer tune which I'll post at some point. Can't speak
for CJ but this track was never ever eastern in my mind. [ Reply to This ]

CJ's percussion is excellent - going by my experience it must have taken a bit of
time to get that right. [ Reply to This ]
This is cinematic stuff &mdash 10/13/05 - 08:04:54 PM
The melody creates an energetic and a mysterious atmosphere for me.
The percussion was very interesting and well played.
I'll download this thankyou very much. [ Reply to This ]

See, this is why.... &mdash 10/19/05 - 05:44:29 PM
I didn't do anything with it, CJ - you two did someting much better than I could have added to it with vocals! Well done!! [ Reply to This ]
Would make a great soundtrack! &mdash 10/22/05 - 08:13:22 AM
This is a really nice piece. I like the phased fiddle sound ( reminds a bit
of the violin on 'Out of the Blue' by Roxy Music at the beginning)...this
has a really moody Celtic sound to it...Celtronica?
Nice one guys!

Just listened to 'Out of the Blue' for the first time in about 20 years - never
realised that was a violin but having listened again it so obviously is! Thanks
for reacquainting me with Country Life.
Celtronica - hmmm that's a thought - you may have given a name to a whole
new sub-genre! [ Reply to This ]
cool &mdash 10/26/05 - 04:32:11 AM
this is a cool song, nice fiddling around,
now all you need is a ton of mean distortion
and this puppy is it.
enjoyed listening to this.

Establishes its own atmosphere &mdash 10/31/05 - 12:59:06 PM
Wonderful, creative track. Your collaboration is a total success. Many
well-integrated elements present, each of which contributes to the sound.
Congratulations. [ Reply to This ]

don't know about pagans &mdash 10/29/07 - 08:04:43 AM
Thank you &mdash 11/01/07 - 05:19:13 AM
Your comment about revolution made me listen to this track again (haven't for months) I think I know where you're coming from and also it's made me realise that another collaboration with CJ is long overdue!
