Vindolanda - a Chapperz original

[chapperz66]

Vindolanda is a Roman fort on Hadrian's wall.  This piece was inspired by a visit there, and gave me an excuse to pretend that I can play the mandolin. 

It's not terribly exciting but I thought I would post it anyway.

I'm digging the proggy folky flavour of this, and the mixture of electronic and mandolin sounds.

It does sound like a suitable piece for some travelogue footage. I can definitely hear some lyrics and vocals taking this one up a gear.

Really nice work.

[Hook]

I dig it also & Greeny hit the nail on the head, this is a perfect score for a travel show or a cultural food type show. Well done brother, sounds great.
Rock On!

[Tangled Wires]

This is extremely good, excellent mix up of instrumentation to give a very full and uplifting sound and some nice variation throughout which keeps the listener hooked.

I too could hear vocals on this, this could really fly and has some seriously good potential in this respect, although I am not volunteering my services.

Superb!

[ODH]

Folky and proggy, presses my buttons alright.

 

[Farrell Jackson]

Paul, I just watched a PBS special on Hadrian's wall. Your music should have been part of that soundtrack...it would have fit perfectly!

[AndyR]

Like it.

Cool tune. Would've fitted in quite nicely in or around Heavy Horses

[Flash Harry]

I too like the mix of the old and new instrumentation, a contemporary feel to an ancient melodic and rhythmic form.

Very nice indeed!

[Blooby]

This has Tull all over it. I love it.

I don't think I've ever written this before, but I'm liking the bass drum and its placement.

I can see James swooping in all over this.

I can here some Jethro Tull vibes, too. Expecting Ian Anderson start to sing . Really fine instrumental with nice folky melodies! I'm on my third listening...
