| Donovan Punch described it as Acoustic Guitar Zeuhl music in a post. Are you the same person/ account as Donovan? Or partner? I'm a bit confused as I thought it was solo -- and only one account should be active at a time. I like it, I might call it Avant Folk and Classical Guitar music with Zheulish qualities. It reminds me a bit of music like Comus too and the Zheulish Gonda Sextet which is jazz for some reason. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcVry4ktU0M" rel="nofollow - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcVry4ktU0M |

| ^ Okay, might want to edit the topic title if it's not your music as that could confuse more people than just me. |

Thanks, Donovan might have already done this, but I would think about all the artists and albums that he can think of as an influence. Pigeonholing is often hard, and good to assign multiple labels and list those influences and similarities and associations to other particular music that he hears. At least that is the approach that I would take for my write-up and to help with assigning genre tags. Some go overboard hoping all those tags and search times will come up in search engines and at sites. Just in the process of writing up a detailed bio, it's amazing how many associations and insights might start popping into the head. Others might not hear it the same, but then everyone hears music differently and will make different associations at some level as we all have unique brains and experiences. Or something like that... |

| This sounds like 1970's Avant-garde/Progressive Folk to me. We are in Comus first album and Jan Dukes De Grey's Second album territory. Also there seems to be almost an indian influence almost trying for one some of the melodies to mimic a sitar. This is great stuff you have done here. |
