Shambolc
Liner Notes
@mdavisto says: This is Week 1 #randomcollaborations. I was paired with @pippa, who sent me a fiddle tune called Imbolc: https://write.fawm.org/songs/304693
I went at it with scissors, and dropped it an octave, and this happened.
Thank you @pippa, this was a lot of fun.

Oh, and, apparently I'm supposed to say #noai.

this is a fun idea - lovely random collab - this is like a cinematic adventure and feels like from viking times or something.

Oh yeah very cinematic! Sort of one of those oldy worlds country films like Scotland or similar! This is really good!

So atmospheric and moody and like a call from the ancestors over the sea. I love the high shimmering violin sound throughout. Felt this in my bones.

this is really cool. love the changed timbre of the fiddle from the octave drop, and the delay/reverb on it. nicely moody. and other sounds in there to lend it spice and detail.

This is so scenic, feels like I'm looking out at a frozen ocean from a snowy cliff, contemplating about what I have done with my life. So much emotion in those strings! As others have said, I love the little shimmery sounds sprinkled throughout, does give it that wintry feel. Great work!

I like the scratchy shimmery sparkles sprinkled throughout - like wind picking up ice crystals on a snowy plain.

Wonderful. I listened to @pippa's original and this. As pippa's is lilting and light and sweet, yours is rich and deep and expansively moody. They both belong in the same movie.

This is incredibly cinematic - I'm seeing Irish cliffs and mountainsides. It also sounds like music that a band walks out on stage to, the crowd is screaming with the lights down - it creates a lot of excitement and anticipation.

This is gorgeous! I'm glad you had such fun with it, I love the shimmers, and how rich the tone!

Lol at me singing along with the 'lyrics' 😀 And I love how the title changed from Imobolc to Shambolc! 😀 Shimmering and beautiful, lovely collabbing guys! I am SO zen right now.
