My passion for the banjo was cultivated over a decade, and I've had the privilege of attending countless old time and bluegrass jam sessions, festivals, and music lessons, immersing myself in the time-honored tradition of roots music. Every strum and pluck is a nod to the giants who came before - from the intricate styles of Tommy Jarrell, Dock Boggs, Charlie Poole, and Roscoe Holcomb to the groundbreaking sounds of Doc Watson, Elizabeth Cotton, Lead Belly, and modern day players such as Bruce Molsky.
Experience a unique fusion of the familiar and the unknown. While our feet tap to the rhythms of our planet's musical past, let our souls soar through the galaxies. Dive into 'Galactic Banjo Ambience' - where the age-old sounds of Earth meet the infinite universe.

Day 142 in the dark reaches of this astroid belt and the Galactic Federation alliance is making us stay another four cycles digging the graphite.... They did raise our units from 32 to 75.4 so thats a plus for all the overtime...... Ravagers stole one of the com-links last evening and has been attacking the cruisers as the leave with freight so we had to mount sonic plasma blasters on them from the Colonial Union Defence Federation on them........i tell you brother i miss it back in New Appalachia.

Banjo is Appalachian.

[@LincolnTheNerd]

ok so, have you heard of the album "High noon over Camelot"?

[@zachsmith8916]

The funny thing is that the banjo playing in this is super authentic pre bluegrass Appalachian style banjo. I love it. Awesome rendition of John Henry.

[@SpaceBanjoMusic]

I started out playing Earl Scruggs 3 finger style and had a ton of fun with it till I really understood Old Time as a genre. It's not obvious if you're unfamiliar with it. Dock Boggs, Frank Proffitt, Tommy Jarrell, Roscoe Holcomb, Stanley Hicks, and Fred Cockerham (to name a few), changed the way I play and even think about music. Most of these musicians carry a unique quality that can't be imitated or copied. You pretty much have to be born in that time with their culture to sound like that. - Thanks for the thoughtful comment!

Gotta love the artwork. Here's a guy wearing a space suit; camping next to a forested lake and camp fire. I wonder where the banjo player gets oxygen. Don't pick the strings to long before the sun goes super nova =] I like outer wilds also.

funny. i was just looking for some ambient space banjo and noticed a distinct lack. here this is two days later. learning the banjo myself, maybe i should try my hand in this incredibly niche genre

No matter how thin the atmosphere, we can still make it wiggle by plucking some strings. Though playing through the suitgloves is an acquired talent. We made our robot hum to itself for it's birthday, it may have only been once, but it happened. We should always bring music with us.

[@charleshicks1025]

Growing up in SE Kentucky hearing bluegrass music most of my life with family members playing and recording some albums. This by far is the most soothing music I’ve listened to in my nearly 50 years of life.

[@SpaceBanjoMusic]

I greatly appreciate you saying that. 🙏Thank you

[@halfwayfarmsandoutdoors3550]

I’m also from eastern Ky and can picture sitting on to of a hill in the winter listening to this when it starts snowing and everything is deafening silent except for this banjo playing gently!!!

[@derekschrodt2801]

I been out here awhile. Its quiet. Not like back home quiet. Back home the wind whispered through the leaves on the trees, and the wheat in the fields. Here...there aint nothin. Somethin' bout the atmosphere...i dunno. Im keepin' focused most the time, but the quiet gets to me and i dream of home. I see the amber waves and the farmers harvestin. I feel the cool breeze and i feel the warm sun melt over me like butter on mammas pancakes. God i miss you mama. Only a few more rotations and we can go out again like we used to before daddy passed. Like a family.

[@Darkwolf1382]

Honestly came across this completely by accident and I'm going to throw these onto a playlist on Spotify for when I'm just tooling around in Starfield or Shipbreaker. Love how relaxing this is.

As someone who has been thinking about it for a while and got another boost of inpiration from you videos (thank you) with what kind of Banjo is this created? Open or closed back? I am totally inexperienced with instruments and I get many would tell me to elarnt he guitar first. But I know myself and know that it is best to just go all in with something I really want. So which should I go for to come closest to this sound? :)

[@SpaceBanjoMusic]

I've been recording these videos with a closed back banjo, without the finger picks. I also play open back too. If you know banjo is right for you, go straight to it! Banjo creates a feeling no other instrument can imitate.
