A little song on my octave mandolin - Nick drake - Place to be

[magic-marmelade]

Far from what Nick was playing, but well...
A song i recorder to celebrate a set of good strings...
i had always chosen the cheapest and i gave a try to Tomastik flat wound...
It is like i have a new instrument!
I believe it will be difficult to go back to the first price strings now!
damn!

Hi Magic!

That looks like finger-style playing you are doing there, I've not seen that on an octave before (as far as I am aware), but I like it! and I particularly like the way it gives the song a nice percussive feel.

Cheers

Sounds great! I also like to finger pick my OM.

Very nice playing, and great recording clarity of both the instrument and vocals.

thanks! well when it comes to sound recording, i feel even more newbie than on a mandolin, but trying my best... this reverb i put on the voice is really not so appealing... but well music is a process!
