This is fantastic. Is the lower, long note (sounding slightly similar to a very muffled sitar note) aswell coming from the Morsing?

I like very much the way you played jew's harp here. It shows very rich possibilities of this instrument ! Especially towards real great spirituality. There's a plenty such a spirit in these seconds. Maybe something with sarod or other beautiful instrument(s) too ?

[utubevellorears]

Thanks so much ... robuhoo..Happy listening and regards.

@EhStrawLogy The muffled sound you talk about is something called a "Shruti Petti" (in Tamil). Its a set of bellows which blow air against a diaphragm to create that background hum Its a characteristic of classical south indian music

@EhStrawLogy nah, thats the thambura/drone, which in this case is emulated by a small bit of tech.

[PawlOwl]

Thats some nifty mustache playing right there!
