https://soundcloud.com/andyshearer-1/wonderland-revisitedHi there, Here is a cheery folk-dance version of a tune that I previously released in 2013 in a very different form. (ie. https://andyshearer.bandcamp.com/track/wonderland). This new version combines a funky bass guitar and Synth drums backing (from BIAB 2024) with my own electric guitar, Irish bouzouki, 12-string guitar & slide guitar playing. The forest flute melody is played on an Ensoniq SQ1 Plus keyboard synth, and the cello chops and pizzicato strings (near the end) are from a Roland GR-20 guitar synth connected to my Fender Stratocaster Plus. Hope it gets you moving. Cheers, Andy Shearer

I really like the way this instrumental picks up as it goes along. The instrumentation and arrangement are excellent.
Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#58: Bring consciousness to it.
#63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

Andy, cool song, joyfully played. Sounds like you're having a lot of fun with your many instruments! Especially like your guitar synth, since that's a guilty pleasure of mine. Thanks for posting!

Hi, Andy. A pleasant tune that chugs along - very enjoyable although I thought the end was a bit abrupt. Nice work!

Andy, you are a master of many instruments.
Excellent chops.
Super mix.
A very happy folk dance tune that belongs in a fantasy movie.

Hi Andyman,
That was a very pleasurable listen. Cheerful and foot-tapping. Nice instrumentation and mix, although a rather abrupt ending.

So well packed with the perfect backing instruments so well played, Andy. Thoroughly enjoyed. Man, I miss my ESQ-1. You make it sound so good. The bouzouki was another excellent choice and played so well.

Thanks Marty. I'm glad that I kept my ESQ1. I don't use it that often these days, but it does have some really nice tones that I haven't been able to find on more modern synths. The forest flute is one that I'll definitely use again on future songs.
