Balkan 7/8

[@avstraliskizivot]

I am Macedonian and my heart beats 7/8

[@danieltemelkovski9828]

Hah, good one!

[@DanielMuyshond]

Being able to play this kind of rythm/ melody in on my bucket list. Thanks for sharing !

[@marcusjazz1]

Thanks! Mine too…..😄

Sound of the motherland. Balkan breathes in this rhythm

[@marcusjazz1]

I love this kind of music 😀

[@datsunlambchops4624]

While leaving the kafana and smoking a cigarette at 5am.

[@KurtoGuzic]

Leaving Kafana at 5am followed by a band of Gypsies, exhausted to hallucination after playing all night without a break - no one is complaining, still faithfully working for you. You are slowly walking home, disturbing the snow that fell over night, followed by the men who are always there for you, and will follow you with their music until the end of your days.

[@ThinPicks]

I've been a guitarist for over fifty years and so many times I've "felt" this rhythm and love improvising over it but I could never get any rock band I was in to play it! To me it always sounds "right", maybe it's my ancestry or something?!🤔👍

[@DefOutOfSize]

Mostly the one with a weak self-confidence are needing to point on nationalism. The history of what is now northern Greece is characterized by migration of peoples. Any attempt at appropriation, regardless of who makes it, is nonsense. So let it be our music. Mine and yours. Let it touch our hearts. Let's sing and dance. Let everyone be our friend.

[@laurentbajrami3688]

Dude! This is just like during a wedding in my hometown

[@marcusjazz1]

Yeah 😀

[@nikolamiticdev]

Soul melting. Really nice.

[@marcusjazz1]

Thank you :)

[@sinke_hr2986]

I practice that scale when I was young and I remember that I didn't have metronome, only my right foot. I found that was crucial for my rhythm playing in the future. I developed a perfect chord to solo line transition.

[@marcusjazz1]

Yes, its a good way to practise your time 😊👌🏻

[@priteshugrankar6815]

Subscribed even before 1 minute into this....this is simply out of this world...And I hope that you get 1000 times more subscribers than you have right now. Your playing style and technique is amazing. Respect and adulation from India. God bless you Marcus. And please release an album. I'd love to buy it.

[@marcusjazz1]

Hello and thanks for the kind words :) I'm really glad that you like it, I thinks its a great way to practise your picking. Take care my friend!

[@2bozo69]

[@marko1701]

wow thank you so much for this masterpiece!

[@marcusjazz1]

Ohhh, thanx! 😀

[@nikolailiev569]

Can you provide a bit of info about the chord progression/scales you used

[@TheBanana93]

Mistakes are often what makes a piece like this even better and unique every time it is played! Also the majority of us with western ears will not even notice or know what a mistake sounds like in this song as it is different from what our ears are used to.

[@marcusjazz1]

So true 😊

[@marcusjazz1]

@aaron singer Thanks man 😊

[@marcusjazz1]

@aaron singer 😄 No problem man! 👍🏼

[@df4949]

Guys, especially you Bulgarians, stop bothering everyone else. If you came here to spill "wisdom", you - missed the channel. Probably somewhere on the net there is a ghetto for such, with inferiority complex, where you can cure it with self-deceiving fantasies about your own "glory and greatness". The same applies and for Turks and Kurds as well. If we ignore one small historical omission (which soon can be corrected) - Turkey is NOT the Balkans. Neither the Balkans nor Europe. They're Asian - no more and no less. There are others who can be recognized in this. I apologize to Mr. Marcus Lundgren and the other normal people, but such outbursts of nonsense have to be banished.

[@marcusjazz1]

Thanks 😊

[@isaacmaciel6166]

Nice but where's your hair??? JK

[@marcusjazz1]

I think it's on the flor.... 😄

[@BGSoccerMagic]

What other countries than Bulgaria play 7/8 that you call it Balkan?

[@tonybrasko3082]

Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan and also some part of India and some Kurdish-arab nations....

[@tonybrasko3082]

In Tajikistan we have several versions of 7/8... just search on KZbin tajik national songs...most of them are 7/8 songs...

[@tonybrasko3082]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGnPoqKvg56hkK8 We wrote this one in 2004... with only a korg pa80 keyboard...

[@dariodivkovic8293]

Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia

[@majkadonoid]

MACEDONIA

[@smallemo1]

It is a bit insulting to call it Balkan ;) Though the Balkan Mountain is mainly positioned in Bulgaria, so it is Ok.. ;)

[@marcusjazz1]

:)

[@IMTEDD]

Jesse we need to play zhe guitar

[@marcusjazz1]

😊

[@bokidimi5215]

Good playing. Bu5 if you wanna teach, count for us beginners, and explain the count. You are just showing of, and a lot of Macedonians do this better.
