I used to listen to this two tracks a lot when i discovered it some years ago. I'm starting to talk a lot more nowadays and i'll say it, the music this guy made, it's one of the best raw things you can found out there and start liking raw sounding songs too. Once you start listening you can't stop. It's just really impressive

its more likely that the first track is an actual piano due to how it sounds and how it was recorded (you can hear stuff moving in the background so he probably placed a mic in front of an actual piano) and the second track has a guitar@@ccyberr_4920
