"Remember Me Whenever You" (instrumental) 2 of 7 - Tangled Roots Project This is the second track of the Tangled Roots project. I've always loved the sound and expressiveness of the violin/fiddle in American music, so I tried to incorporate in this tune. It has a little more country/rock/folk influence, where the first one was jazz and latin-influenced. Lead Guitar: 511: Guitar, Electric, Soloist Dire Ev 140 (Darin Favorite) Rhythm Guitar: 543: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Dreamy Ev 120 (Darin Favorite) 12 String Guitar: 1681: Guitar, 12-String Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 120 (Pat McGrath) Organ: 674: Organ, B3, Background Blues Roadhouse Ev 120 (Chris Nole) Violin: 1877: Fiddle, Soloist CountryRob Ev 120 (Rob Hajacos) Cello: 2509: Cello, Background PopEven Ev 120 (Matt Nelson) Horns: 2292: Horn Section, Rhythm Pop Ev 130 (Jim Clark) Electric Bass: 684: Bass, Electric, PopHalfNotesSync Ev 120 (Tobin Frank) Drums: FusionEv8TerryClarke (Terry Clarke) Sampled Organ, Composition & Arrangement: MW Gilbert https://soundcloud.com/mwgilbert/tangled-roots-ep-02-remember-me-whenever-youBackground of the Tangled Roots Project: I grew up listening to all kinds of American music, jazz, blues, rock, folk, bluegrass, R&B. When I started composing my own music, even though these many wonderful influences were shaping my compositions, I never worked directly in these idioms. Since my own music is a coming together of many tangled roots, I wanted to step outside my comfort zone and try to write pieces that went back to this rich pool of musical influences.

Hello, That's quite a pile of RTs  Very nice. The entire sound of this, makes us think of The Dire Straits in their "On Every Street" period. This will have something to do with the use of the Dire RT. Good job. Rob and Anne-Marie

Well put together, but a bit disorienting. Sort of a smooth jazz version of Ives, only instead of two marching bands colliding, it's like moving through the aisles of a large department store, where turn brings you to a different department playing a different song.

Thanks dcuny - I like the Ives reference, although I would like to think that the turns are at least somewhat graceful. It took me a long time back when in school until I 'got' Ives, and that had me thinking about comparing what he did with, say, what Teo Matero did with Miles Davis.
Anyway, thanks for the listen and the feedback!

Thanks RnAM. I really like the Dire RealTracks playing, and one could be tempted to overuse it... It is amazing how that Knopfler style of playing runs so iconically through the DS body of songs.
I appreciate the listen and the feedback!

I really enjoyed listening to this one. I'd like to echo Davis's comments that there is definitely a classical music vein to this although I thought of Debussy for some reason. Anyway, very unique and nicely done. Cool project.

This is a mix that is put together very nicely. An eccentric mixture of RT styles but remained easy on the ears.
Enjoyed my listen.
