Dance of the Eleven Fairies

I originally thought of the flower Trientalis europaea for the title of this song, but I feel this title will generate more clicks smile.

Nordic folk music and Nordic progressive rock as my main influences. One listener thought he heard some medieval influences in my music, so I thought I'd show them, haha!

Acoustic guitars
Mandolin
Electric guitar
Ukrainian whistle (Recorder style flute)
Precision bass
Casio DM-100 (for the obligatory harpsicord in this style of music)
Korg 01R/W
Yamaha SY99 has a tuning setting for intonating to the overtone series, which is something I do with the fiddle when appropriate. It's usually a bit too spicy and doesn't appeal to the casual listener whose ears are accustomed to equal temperament.
Drum samples/Alesis D4
Violin, or as folk musicians say: Fiddle.

Happy Midsummer!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so much lovely detail, i especially love how the structure breaks at times, and the bass guitar adds an extra playfulness to it all, nice work!

Wow! This is super cool!

I love almost everything about this, except the very discordant bells in the intro, like even later down it fits really well with all the everything. I want more of this though, it's making sweet love to my ears.
