[@sickomcflippin]

Glad to see Outer-wilds-core is gettin some love

[@dankerthanclanker]

I'd love to hear all of the different tracks in one place, it really works as a concept, the videos are good don't get me wrong, however the repetition of tracks is the thing that holds it back a little bit for me on a personal level. The vibes and atmosphere really are on point though. I go for a similar vibe on my Ozark 6 String. If I may suggest as well, Rusty Cage is currently working on a new album, I really think you should suggest a collab with him, he's an excellent narrative song writer and I think the two of you could have a lot of fun with this concept and making stories with it. I know he certainly would. Additionally, I reckon Queen Prophet's Song could be good in this style. Cheers!

[@SpaceBanjoMusic]

You have a 6 string from Ozark Banjo Company? I've been following him on youtube for several years now. LOVE his play style and the tone from his banjos. I agree. I'm not completely satisfied with the repetition in my videos either, however it seems like there's a decent amount of listeners who don't mind. And I haven't recorded, mixed, and EQ'd enough content yet to fill a full hour while still posting somewhat regularly. - I am in the process of delivering music to streaming platforms (spotify, apple, etc.) so the tracks can be played there without the repetition. So I'm just now learning about Rusty Cage....and I almost fell into a binge watching hole with his videos. 😂 Thank you for sharing, I'll start following him on youtube and spotify and see where it goes!

[@dankerthanclanker]

​@@SpaceBanjoMusic The banjo says Ozark on it, don't know much about it, It's not a bad thing, but I don't know banjos super well, it's got a nice sound to it and it's seriously improved my finger picking too. That's fair, as a musician I reckon it'd work as a sort of hour long of riffing around a central theme and improv, but that's me thinking how I'd do it, not what gets people watching. Certainly not a fault, you're doing good numbers really with what is quite novel concept. Oh, man, Rusty is my favourite songwriter full stop, the narrative of his songs are excellent. Give his album Heretics a listen and his Tom Waits and Bill Withers banjo covers a listen, it'll be up your street!

Hi! I just wanted to let you know that I've stumbled across your videos purely by accident thanks to the algorithm and they've become my favourite things in the world to listen to. Thanks to you and your channel, I'm even currently planning on buying my own banjo and learning how to play it, even though I've never been musically inclined in my entire life. If it's not too much trouble, would you mind letting me know what type of banjo you use to record these tracks? I'd love to be pointed in the right direction. Thank you so much again for your videos and for the immense joy that they give me! 🪕❤

[@SpaceBanjoMusic]

Big smile on my face after reading this :) I've been recording these videos with a 5-string Gibson Mastertone banjo. However, I started out with just a cheap 100 dollar entry level 5 string resonator banjo. - I also play open back banjos, which are great for clawhammer style and sometimes give a smoother mellow tone. Also, Look up Clifton Hicks' channel here on youtube, particularly his older videos that talk about finding a banjo. He's had a lot of influence on my play style, and I love seeing the older antique banjos that he finds. Hope that helps. Glad you're enjoying these videos!

These are a really good concept, but I'd generate more than one track per vid, since the AI tends to repeat the same strings within the song with no variation, and they can tend to be rather gratting if you try to listen for the whole hour

[@SpaceBanjoMusic]

No AI was used in the music. Just me, a banjo, and an sm57 mic. The sounds effects were created manually (also without AI) using my recording software(DAW) Ableton. I do agree with what you're saying though. As I grow and can afford to spend more time building TiMBR ZEAL, I would like more variation in my hour long videos. In the meantime though, it seems like there are still plenty of folks who don't mind the repetition.
