Hello,
I was sent an interresting video about a traditional music and dance used in Italy to heal from epilepsy/possession.
What called my attention me in this dance is that it looks very... Celtic! And the music sounds Celtic too :

And this old documentary explains that this dance has pagan origins, it's a survivance :

The symbolism of the spider bite that disturbs the soul is interresting and much more ideas about how ancient people think can be viewed in this documentary. Of course the documentary is very catholic-oriented but still interresting if one avoid the "superstition" etiquette. It is in Italian with English subtitles.
Hope you enjoy the music :)

Feedback from the musicians from the forum? (I'm just an amateur)... :-[


Edit :

This one is total improvisation (the "voice" and rythm guitar, the second guitar is played on the first listening, thus discovering the "song" :-[ ). Sorry for the quality in both...
 
:lol: :lol: :lol:
I didn't know I was that bad :lol:
I will record others as soon as my recorder is repaired :)
 
Reminded me of Dire Straits from the Brothers in Arms period. Not a bad association at all!
 
I didn't have a listen at first just cause I don't use rapidshare that much. Just listened to your song...Beautiful!!!! I love it!!!! :rockon:
 
I liked these! Just the sort of thing I would probably try to do if I had any musical talent or knowledge! (Which I don't)
Thanks for sharing mkrnhr!
I hope you do more!

Then I copied the mix one to my mp3 player and used it to relax a bit before going to sleep, by the way. ;)
Thanks!
 
Thanks for appreciate it :)
Breton, I'm glad it makes you sleep (it's a joke lol).
"Le Connard" was an idea to write about psychopaths. Ihad the ide to write something that says "I know what you are now, you cannot abuse be anymore" while I was thinking that spoting the psychopaths in our life and the knowledge about it was a great protection. But while playing the theme, I was thinking about a... boss and I used to name him "le connard" :P
My recording device collapsed and I lost the rest of the recording.
Acutally I'm trying to write a song (with text, it's new) and the main theme (sorry it's in french) gives :

"Arrête je t'en prie, tu sais que ça me stresse
De voir autour de moi, la misère la détresse
Tu crois encore, aux rêves et aux bonheurs
mais pour cela il faut être sans cœur.

Arrête je t'en prie, tu sais que ça me stresse
d'entendre les mêmes conneries, les mensonges qui blessent
Je voulais être en vie, mais me voilà pantin
Quand tu dis toujours oui, t'es aussi une putain. (sorry :-[)

Arrête je t'en prie, tu sais que ça me stresse
Il viendra bien le jour, ou il faudra que j'te laisse..."
