What music are you listening to? #66 No need for a title.

Another bouncy ball from the Cafe de Anatolia playlist: "Tataki" by Argy, a Greek musician (real name Argyris Theofilis). Tataki is a Japanese technique for preparing fish.

Do all of you really listen on youtube or do you search the video for the sake of posting?

The latter.

Do all of you really listen on youtube or do you search the video for the sake of posting?

Sometimes. I've listened to enough on there that there's usually some music on my recommended videos, and if I'm in the mood for music, I'll often click on one and then leave the autoplay on, which has taken me in some interesting directions. I do only bother with my occasional posts in these threads when I've already got a video open. I'm not going to search up a song on youtube just to post here.

Anyway, new Gunship song:

My NaNoWriMo story (based on the computer game King's Heir: Rise to the Throne) includes characters who are musicians, and so last night I did some research on medieval instruments. I got curious as to what a shawm sounds like.

It blew me away. This is wonderful and gave me immediate inspiration for a scene or two in the story (picture people dancing - it's fast, it's wild, and it's mesmerizing and fun). Add drums, and it's perfect.

And it appears that you need very good lungs to play this instrument properly (the shawm is in the first 2 minutes and is not the instrument shown in the thumbnail):

This particular piece of music is much later than the period when my story takes place. But the game developers inserted anachronistic elements like a quote from Richard III, a quote from Grimm, and one character wears 19th-century suspenders. I think I'm allowed to fudge the music by 300 years, since the style is appropriate, if not the actual specific instrument.
