Merci beaucoup Mickaël. Nous sommes en Irlande prêt de Belfast. Trente minutes de Belfast. Nous allons la fête Irlandaise en Poitiers chaque année. C'est magnifique pour musique irlandaise. Merci
Irlande éternelle
Poor recording, playing, and singing. 😦
American?
Thanks for your feedback. No it's Irish. I disagree with your statement. Have a nice day
Aye. I know it's Irish. I sing it sean nòs, myself. I meant you lot are American. Anyway.
Try to relax your timing a bit. It sounds like you're playing in a ceilidh hall. And that's grand if you want to waltz. But you're trying to sing. They're two completely different things. You cant sing Mantle So Green to a metronome.
You can keep.your metre, but the rhythm has to flow within the metre. Think of how a hornpipe is a reel with a twist. Mantle as a song isn't a waltz.
I'd suggest working on the mix a bit. Right now, it sounds like an Alanis Morrisette album with the vocals at +6db. And if I can be ao bold, be a little easy on the salt when singing. If you try to ornament every note, it just becomes a vocal exercise.
Your box could definitely come up in the mix. It looks like your unfamiliar with how to mic it. There are some good tutorials on the internet to help with that.
The best way to learn mixing is to hire a mix engineer and quietly look over their shoulder. You'll see how you can make a track sound like group instead a five inputs put together.
Have a listen.

Can you see how they keep their metre but let the rhythm of the melody run like water down the stairs.
But Maggie does it nicely.if you'd like to know what real trad. sounds like.

But first, get the timing. Irish music is all about timing.
That said, it's nice to see some Americans still playing Irish music.
Good on ya!
You're way off with your analysis. It's called artistic choices. Theres also no point micing the box on the bass side if it's not being used. There is no click on the recording, as you can see there are no monitors or iem. It's based closer on the Sinead O'Connor version anyway. Her vocals is what everyone wants, and that's how she's able to be a professional musician. I think you are too stuck in your ways as a Sean nos singer and unable to adapt to modern approaches. There is also no xy mic pattern on the room. It was 5 inputs for stage and a condenser room mic. I appreciate your feedback and thanks for listening but at the same time you cant change how an artist approaches a song. You can't always have it like it was traditionally done. I do agree with one thing that the room is not right for recording. Her vocals are closer to a country singer as well and trying to change her technique to a traditional style would be a pointless. But thanks again
@@rouxrecordings3631 You're fekkin' right about me on most accounts.
I'd love to see some trad continue to live. As it should. I suppose, for the most part, recordings are what we have, now.
I'm not really stuck in sean nòs. I play as well, and I know it has to fit the pub or venue, too. That's why I offered Ye Vagabonds. It's a "family" group, not a 'singer'. And so it should be.
Of course, the singer can sing as she likes. I'll leave that alone.
I wrote my response assuming it was a recording by a family in their house.
You clearly know what you're talking about with recording. I did test you a bit, there.😉
For a box, do you have a good, cordless, lav mic? You could try putting a piece of pipe insulation under the mic and tape it to the accordion in the bright spot. It works wonders.
I'm an old engineer, myself. I'm still recording, even.
As far as strings, try putting a mic on the sound hole and twelfth fret. You'd be surprised how you can mix, then.
But you can't make a good sound recording in that setting. You can't "polish a turd" in engineering parlance.
I get, now, how you were hobbled with what the client wanted, and I hope you'll accept my apologies.
You know as well as I do, the room makes the recording. You were making a live music video. You can't make a good recording like that. I understand that, now.
I apologise.
Oh! And you can fekkin write and think like a champ!
