Nice... Great to use those unusual repetitive patterns, changing subtly all the time. Fun... sort of half-old, half-new. Check out my latest song called Had We But World Enough

Where is everybody? I keep coming back to this. For some reason, it really grabs me. I'd download, fav and vote again if I could... Hope you do some more pieces with the mbira sound, maybe combined with other instruments, timbres, lines, percussion...it's not like we've worn out the guitar in all these years...this sound could be played with in a lot of ways...

How'd I miss this? Thanks, Ejh, for the forum post about this wondrous piece. Perfect combination of rhythms and subtle shifting. Nice build and fade and 1/4 tone raises at the end, like a warbly tape. Maybe it is? very excellent, Bubowski. (inexplicably low score so far. I'll raise it a bit for you.) 9-9-10-9 Check out my latest song called Keep Looking for Jesus (MJRF)

Under the radar alright! Thanks Ejh for the pointer - great ambient stuff here - have raised the votes further. How did I miss this? Beautifully rhythmic and melodic, and so different. Thanks Bubowski Check out my latest song called Lost In Translation (w Mike Watkins)

Super I also like the detuned effect at the end. Love the old Ensoniq's from the 80's. They had such nice, crisp sounds. Totally cool piece. Check out my latest song called La Valse Final Waltz

Excellent This is great stuff. Quite a nice ethnic sound. Very mellow and primal. Flowing polyphony. Wonderful percussion patterns. |

Hey I also had an esq-1 and one of the crystal sound cartridges. Brings back memories. The melody and rhythm are outstanding. Maybe you could arrange this for string quartet sounds, might be fun and sound great. Check out my latest song called freeash aire ( remix-me )

Thanks for the comment Never thought about a string quartet...what a great idea! I think I have a midi version (not ESQ-1 Sysex) around somewhere so I'll have to mess with it. Thanks for the idea! Check out my latest song called Galaxy Band 8

very nice I had to follow the flames on your page. Now I see why this smokin'. World music rocks my socks. I like when it gets really intense midway through the song. Couldn't you see this playing on Survivor? ohhhh I could. Check out my latest song called Hopes and Dreams

Song of Mbira If you ever do more of this type of delightful music, could you make it at least twice as long please? Very nice. Check out my latest song called Dancing on the Head of a Pin

I have a friend who, along with being a monster bass
player, has some real African mbiras, including some big
ones that he puts in gourds for resonance...He would love
this, and I'm going to make sure he hears it...
Man, first vote and everything...
It's so melodic/harmonic at the beginning, and there's the
nice break to the chant sort of thing...Ear candy...always
engaging the interest...
Real nice.
