Starry starry night (but only half of it)

pix.fairydust · May 4, 2019

So I've worked on polishing this up a bit and adding more flair. I tuned down to FBbDG and played it on my kamaka tenor. Loving the sound of this kamaka.
Annoyingly I had to cut the video to 16mb to send to a friend and then I deleted the original by mistake. Also forgot the TV was on in the background :-/

Hope people don't mind my posting it again, and that there's only half of it!

Lovely. Listened to then I read your post which explained why the video ended mid note. Thank you.

Thank you

yeah I'm so annoyed at myself, but it was the end of a crazy week at work and I just deleted the wrong one! Messenger caps the size of the video you can send.

Excellent finger technique, and that tuning sounds great on that Kamaka. Do the whole thing! ; )

You have a lovely musical touch Pix! I'll look forward to a full length version of this tune sometime soon, well done! 5*

Thank you! I'd like to start recording more, I only did this for a friend who wanted to hear how the "finished" version sounded and then I thought I'd post here too. I didn't even realise the TV was still on till later!

As you can tell I need a better set up for my videos!!

Your finger picking style is very unique.

Haha! That's because I've probably picked up some bad habits from being completely self taught :-/

I tend to do what feels natural.

I love that tune. Very well played first half. I hope you can post the full version when you are ready.
Your Kamaka sounds lush in Bb tuning.

I know, that tuning really suits it! Thanks, haven't got round to recording the whole thing again yet! Wish I hadn't deleted the original! :-/
