Good lord this has to be the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard in my entire life

[@TheSoundStone]

wow thanks so much

[@chess_is_a_vibe]

Look up “raising the sail - Truman show ost”

[@Jardinserpent]

@@chess_is_a_vibe the progression is very similar

[@romestado]

This is the kind of song that will save humanity from themselves.

[@WHOKILLEDAVICII]

Leminscate - CRYWOLF

[@marcusdickson209]

This unsurfaced emotions I haven't felt in decades. I am without a doubt that this is the single most beautiful piece of music in existence.

[@TheSoundStone]

What a compliment - thank you so much!

[@Yuri_RL]

Still one of the most beautiful underrated pieces i have ever heard

[@chitsmcgee]

It’s so much like the soundtrack to the Truman Show. I love it!!

[@ElFillDelSele]

Totally.

[@chess_is_a_vibe]

THANK YOU I JUST WATCHED THE WHOLE MOVIE TO FIND THE BOAT SCENE TO HEAR IT AGAIN

[@alexiscorbeil5035]

A little bit like « truman sleep »

[@hollywithers9574]

Can't believe this is no longer available on spotify anymore...

[@switchedon8346]

I readded it! I know I’m posting from my other project account…but if you look up Sound Stone - The Great Unknown it will pop up on Spotify and Apple Music among others

[@pd2447]

Saw this in an ig ad. Has to be the greatest ad ever. Never before inspired by a song in an advert like this. Beautiful work.

[@TheSoundStone]

That's a very great compliment, thank you so much!

[@elijahgray3497]

I feel like im on a road trip into the italian country side for a funeral

[@stephen__izzo]

Make an hour long version please

[@Semiautoautomatic_shaman]

Found it lol, this is an amazing piece you wrote. I know you’ve heard from many others already but this is beautiful music. You shouldn’t stop, you have brought a lot of beauty to people through your music, thank you.

[@ijahachery5565]

yes.

[@briand8949]

I absolutely love when the whistling comes in! Such an incredible piece of music!

[@LonnieJamesMusic]

This song is absolutely beautiful.

[@TheSoundStone]

thanks so much!

[@rambojoe2323]

Just got mine today. It's fun to play along with this track.

[@TheSoundStone]

nice!

[@behr1638]

Sounds wonderful. Haunting and melancholic. Really cool!!

[@TheSoundStone]

thx!

[@dangercat3000]

Just bought one. I’ve been meaning to for well over a year and kept forgetting until I saw this ad in my IG feed. Really looking forward to playing with it

[@TheSoundStone]

please let me know if you need help with anything once you get it, thanks!

[@samuelroth7699]

Beautiful

[@davidcress991]

Outstanding!..

[@danieljohnson1213]

I got one and ended up returning it. I already have an Ebow and the Sound Stone was a slightly less wieldy version of the Ebow with a slightly higher learning curve. However, if you're on a budget, I would totally recommend this in lieu of an Ebow. For me, it was basically redundant. Nice company, great packaging too. Made my return easy.

[@robdisner]

Thanks for this. Been using the same eBow for decades. Didn’t see how this could be much of an improvement.

[@malachaipulido4528]

Ridiculously beautiful. I’m swooning into the void of this melody

[@xenunknown1077]

Very cool

[@pacojsf2284]

need more of this amazing sound !

[@orthodoxkyle89]

Found it love it!

[@Frank-jr1ly]

Dude i love this. Can't wait to hear more!!!

[@justinvallejos7378]

Definitely buying one

[@sevenrhye]

This is a beautiful piece of music 😍

[@TroyDeanMusic]

This is fire man. Wow

[@fred.chapman]

What great music! Thanks for sharing this, and thanks for creating an affordable tool to make music like this.

[@jkhavaran]

Just saw your ad on Instagram. I’m so intrigued by this. I only have an electric right now but once I buy an acoustic I want to get one and learn this. Absolutely beautiful. I’m blown away.

[@LeonardoLima-nk4fv]

Thats great! Found a used one, here in Brazil gonna buy for sure, in acoustic really great

[@GUIDEBOOKstl]

This is out of control, and glorious

[@yaye606]

Good song actually, sounds like it would be on an a24 movie or something like that

[@trentp1993]

Love a24 movies

[@hugorissling8464]

Thanks anon, been looking for this for a long time. Finally found the "sad samurai"

[@bradybarton6520]

Just got mine today!

[@bigfoot2708]

Christmas gift. It’s going to be fun

[@nicepeoplenicepeople]

I'm sold

[@TheSoundStone]

Thanks!

[@UndisputedUFC]

This sounds like it should have been in Red Dead 2

[@fartsneed9464]

God I wish

[@joeyanna1247]

Just came from your tik tok account. Please always continue to do music like this

[@TheSoundStone]

Thanks so much - we will!

[@sendapez]

This song gets me emotional

[@grantreborn]

This sounds like what my heart feels like right now. My fiance just left me two weeks ago and man...this hurts

[@pronounshismajesty3542]

She’s riding bbc now yt boy

[@elliottgibby]

I’m so sorry, I hope you’re doing better now :)

[@frankvazquez5974]

Yeah. More of this.

[@deathisabusinessman]

I came here to cry

[@ethancooley6659]

Feel like I just started a new story mode in Zelda

[@TheSoundStone]

We do love Zelda!

[@yashavision]

I'm buying it

[@hunterfrederick2731]

It’s super gorgeous. I heard someone use this device without being really good and I was like. Oh…expectations reset. 😂

[@maze9761]

Finally

[@johncolletta1131]

This is unbelievably pretty. Are there tabs for this? I'd love to learn it.

[@karvn1148]

please upload to soundcloud

[@clintmoran6616]

Reminds me of some tracks in Loki. This is much better tho. iTunes ???

[@G00N1E]

Please tell me there is music on Apple Music with this beautiful style

[@kipster]

I'm already sold on this, but have a question: does the placement of the soundstone along the string produce different harmonics like moving a pick does?

[@yourmommmmmm1481]

idk if u have one yet but the answer is yes if you move it close to the bridge it’s the same as when you do it on a pick

[@JustinDaining]

TAKE MY MONEY

[@stuartstovall2849]

This belongs on a movie. I get indie movie vibes

[@BENBASIL]

This has some post-2015 Sufjan vibes. Is the sound stone making all of the sounds? Or just the theremin-esque part?

[@brody.b8745]

Spotify: open.spotify.com/track/5Umbt49xBuEEeeQ2H5Q3jb?si=fzi83OB7TRGC5UcmYZ88GQ

[@patricklyons8023]

What are the chords for the rhythym? Been trying to figure them out. Amazing!

[@thomasviollagis3263]

Patrick Lyons I believe he is tuned to open G.....this is actually easy....

[@jricher23]

Sounds like something that belongs in the soundtrack for the movie "the secret life of Walter Mitty ". Towards the end of the movie.

[@flintsteel2466]

Silly question... is your guitar mic'd up or just playing acoustically??

[@TheSoundStone]

This is just mic’d up with a condenser mic off camera

[@alexanderwesley]

how do you receive a bonus kontakt instrument? i just purchased mine!

[@TheSoundStone]

Hi Alexander, not sure how I missed this, but could you email us. The official Kontakt instrument is out now and we can send you a serial code.

[@colbycran4472]

What are the backing instruments? The sound is so familiar in the backing track

[@Merlincat007]

Sounds like a couple of mandolins (most likely), a guitar, and a piano.

[@jspendleton3898]

Does this work with regular old phosphor bronze strings, or do you need to use nickel strings?

[@Will-ob5ok]

Any metal/ferrous strings will work!

[@austinnuckols7607]

Chords? How do i make sense of the theory happening here? Intro to the Comos....

[@sryburn641]

You don’t. Heart and feeling. All you ever truly need.

[@Farosado]

How hard are you pressing down with the slider?

[@TheSoundStone]

Just slightly pushing down, so that its not pressing down on the frets...

[@eiffel9861]

can we get a tutorial on how to do this?

[@TheSoundStone]

I’ll try to make one in the near future

[@jamesamendola1122]

What is this tool called anyone have a link?

[@TheSoundStone]

yep its the Sound Stone sustainer - www.soundstone.co

[@nicepeoplenicepeople]

Sounds fucking great

[@fernmoreno8001]

What’s that on your finger?

[@garrettpelland8691]

Howard Stambler it appears to be a guitar slide of some kind, maybe metal.

[@Nestorrosales]

What is name the song?

[@TheSoundStone]

This is just an original composition by us, we will release a full album using the Sound Stone sometime in the future...

[@leizorkei]

The Sound Stone yes please

[@elhristo4257]

Is the guitar plugged in?

[@TheSoundStone]

Nope we just have a condenser mic right off camera - it sounds just about the same if you plug an acoustic though

[@wrathsinful6389]

@@TheSoundStone That is impressive, gonna need to give that a go!

[@NoEffortFatLoss]

It sounds like this song would be great with the dead south in it, an amazing folk band I recommend, or even Lord Huron.

[@ivylove2002]

this is beautiful but it doesn’t sound like this once you get it

[@TheSoundStone]

Hey there! Curious if you’d elaborate on this? There’s definitely a learning curve, but this is an unedited single take on a standard acoustic, so there’s not much we could be hiding. There is a tinge if reverb though. If yours sounds substantially different, email us at [e-mail] so we can figure out if your unit is defective or not - in which case we are happy to replace or send a refund if you aren’t happy with it.

[@chaidle]

The original theremin is awful comparing to this. My god you caught me up

[@TheSoundStone]

Theremin is definitely harder to use 😬

[@andycohen3365]

Silly question but would this device work on electric guitars, just not plugged in?

[@TheSoundStone]

Yep it would, but it will definitely be pretty quiet since electrics don’t have much amplification by themselves

[@Eric_Smith2662]

Geez why didn't you just tell me to come here instead of Spotify? You have to pay to hear specific songs on Spotify

[@TheSoundStone]

Ah good point sorry about that!

[@Eric_Smith2662]

@@TheSoundStone what's good? Your Instagram ad just popped up on my feed again which was really surprising, but I'm glad cause this sounds amazing

[@jackmcgreal7950]

What is he using on his finger?

[@mitchellevink]

It's a steel slide, usually used for blues guitar

[@stephen__izzo]

What is the metal thing on your finger?
