I LOVE the more dronal elements in this one! It gives the music a free-wheeling yet primitive sound. Your rhythms are always inspiring and in a great groove, and this one is no exception. Keep it coming!
@jcrdulci Thanks a lot! Yes, I love the drones too, and think of them in a similar fashion -- there's something primitive about them! Keep an eye for the new Twang Darkly album we're working on; I believe a studio recording of this one may be on there!
@matthiax D-bass G-middle -C melody. I don't actually use double strings on the melody course, so my dulcimer has only 3 strings. It's pretty much the convention to write out tunings in bass-middle-melody order, and that's always the way I write them.
DGC is essentially a drop tuning from the more common DAD.

Was the dulcimer tuned DGCC or DDGC? As in, which one was the double strings (the ones one often plays a melody on)
