Amongst other things, I am an amateur folk musician living in Umbria, Italy, with my wife, two dogs and 15 cats. I play guitar, dulcimer guitar, melodeon, mandolin and synth, none especially proficiently, but hey :) As well as folk, I also create electronic music tracks. #Music #Musician #Folk #FolkMusic #FolkMusician #folkies #ImprovisedMusic #AmbientMusic #fedi22

We started our personal Biergarten season tonight with a Helles and a Märzen made by our local brewery Grohe...

@brudibrau oh gosh, I've not had kriek in years.

@brudibrau 😜
I've not seen it in Italy. Lidl sells some great Belgian beers but not Kriek that I've seen.

@brudibrau they do Leute, and a six-pack which includes Bornem, Piraat and Gulden Drak, and in other supermarkets I can get Chimay.

@brudibrau it does sound odd. We also get some good Irish beers from time to time.

I had great fun recording this with two guitars, kazoo, Morris bells and sticks! And what better song to share on my birthday than The Happy Man?

First sighting of a Wankpanzer here in Dallas. It's not doing this otherwise lovely Spanish colonial home any favors junking up the driveway.

Can't believe it's the first one we've seen in town. We see so many Rivian trucks here.

@pabloniusmonk love the name. Suits it perfectly!

Maybe I should get my ukulele out this week. I haven’t played it in about 3 years, I’ve forgotten all that I once knew. I used to play and sing for at least an hour every day when we lived in London

@purplepadma sounds a great idea!

Took a 30 year old MIDI arrangement I made, the sounds were really bad but I’d spent a decent amount of time moving notes around.

Distorted it, distorted it again, reversed it, added a bit of distortion, put delay on it, distorted it, reversed it back, distorted it again, then added just a tiny bit of distortion to round it out a bit, then distorted it.

Actually sounds pretty cool now.

@mxtthxw sounds like fun! Any particular form of distortion?

@mxtthxw 🤣 I find Paulstretch can be fun, too.

I just found a browser extension that hides suggested content and reels on Insta and FB and I think it will dramatically improve my internet life.

@ElectricDryad what's the extension called?

@barnetboy@musicians.today avatar

@ElectricDryad cool, thanks. I use Chrome so I'll check them out. I used to have a FB ad blocker a while back but it seems they stopped developing it. Cheers :)

I have been meaning to record a song for May Day for the past 2 or 3 years, and it never quite happened. This year I made it! Happy Beltane.

I have started transcribing Bach's Brandenburg Concerto N.3 into ABC notation. I must need my bumps feeling! I'm on page 5 of 31!!

At the pub. The lovely landlord has put a happy birthday banner over our reserved table and knew my name. I’m trying not to cry while my bestie’s in the ladies

Anniversary weekend - 12 years, since you ask. Takeaway pizzas for lunch today and a meal out tomorrow. Don't recall when we last went out for a meal - pre-Covid, I guess.

It's so fun to switch btwn my 12 string and my six. It's going to be a long while before that twelve string feels natural, but I love the sound, and it's my only guitar that has a pickup, so it has a specific job to do.

Then coming back to my old friend six string, it's stepping into my favorite pair of shoes. I don't think I notice how well it fits until I've spent time with a different instrument. :acoustic_guitar: 💌

@jvw I love my 12-string.
