Hi oudies :wavey:,
yesterday my house was crowded with christmas-cookies-baking-girls, so I had to hide for a few hours and spend the free time recording a clip.:D
I used a ambience loop for the background,my turkish oud,a irish metal flute in the middle and my arabic oud at the end.

The soundquality is a bit rough, only first takes and to close to the mic.
I really do apollogize for this!!

The pictures are some impressions of a trip to Istanbul.

Hope you enjoy it.

Hey Marcus, very nice, you'll have to invite the baking girls over more often! ;) Encore! Encore!

It's got a great "loopy gait", the instruments go well together, I like it a lot. Is this in a specific maqam, or minor key noodlin' or a folk motif, or you own theme?

Who am I to talk, but being proactively apologetic is not a good way to present material. There's nothing wrong with this piece, only a professional can even sort out what is what.

Hi Fernand, its "my own theme",but I did not thought about it, just pushed record and played.

Marcus, if we can talk "shop", what's the ambience loop, how long is it, what track are midi?


Marcus - 11-24-2009 at 06:03 AM

Hi Fernand :wavey:

its a pretty short wav.loop, as far as I remember, maybe mp3 .I extend it by copy/paste in audacity.

If you want it, U2U me your emailadress and I`ll send it .

Cheers
