Description
An experiment that turned out to be quite listenable. No loops, all acoustic instruments. No click track either (as you can probably tell)

Glad you like...
Thanks for the comments folks, I'm glad the music connected with you. The instrumentation is Djembe, Acoustic Guitar, Hand Claps and Violin, recorded in that order. I was going to add a Tibetan Singing Bowl to the mix, but forgot to before I posted.....

Very nice
and relaxing. It is very well played. From someone who uses samples alot and makes my own samples, your skills are very impressive. Cool track.

Great mix-
of different textures and sounds. A little Irish, Greek, Middle Eastern, African, others, too, I'm sure. This is cool and slightly quirky in a good way! Quite listenable, indeed!

I'm glad you like the collection of influences. I do get a kick out of mixing up the ethnic roots of music. Thanks for commenting

well worth it
Your little experiment did turn into a nice build of sounds. Nice feeling to it. Almost like a jam session of sorts with a few friends, in this case, all you.

Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks
Good ear. Yes it's DADGAD. The best way to freshen up your playing if you feel a bit stale. Thanks for commenting.

Excellent
Another stunning track - for me it's the rhytmic percussion that really makes this stand out

You have my admiration for doing this the hard way - I'm sure there were built in GB loops you could have used in place of the Djembe / hand claps but to do it your way with real instriuments is very impressive
