Asha - video

Asha

I've always liked the mystical sound of Indian music so here's another attempt to sound like a sitar.

I used midjourney to create the still images in the video. If you don't know,  midjourney
is an AI site where you type in some text and it returns an image. Not bad except for the occasional results of people with 3 arms and weird fingers.

Thats very cool?

[KSband]

You certainly got the Indian vibe going on, sounds good.

Old Joad and KS  Thank you!

[Kevin Walsh]

I just closed my eyes and drifted down the Ganges.  Sounds are great and yes you got the Indian vibe but have blended it well with a stong Western sensibility. Love this.

[Makke]

Good job! Video and music go well together. The pleasant soundscape with indian vibe. ?

Hi Bjorn, nice one, certainly captures an indian mood, lovely sounds.

 Bjorn , Very Cool .  Loved the tabla drums. They were Very convincing. I also enjoyed the video. I've tried a few of those AI sites and you can really lose track of time playing with them.   I once traded a double necked guitar for a sitar. I honestly can't remember what I did with it. Sure wish I still had it ..  Enjoyed that ..   mark

Well up to your high standard Bjorn, only nit that I thought the Sitar was just a bit to high in the mix but it's a very small nit.

Excellent!  The images work and the music is perfectly matched.  You not only captured the sounds of India but you also brought back a wee bit of the sound of the "60's (for those of us that are old enough to remember.

Very good trance feel to this- loved it.  Thanks for the heads up on midjourney  - I tried to do it with just chatgpt without success - gonna give this a try.

Big space! You have captured the sitar in my opinion.  But even so, there is much to be said about the percussions too. Cool video, but I think the girl in the lotus position was facing the wrong way. 

As always, fine work!

Really cool

Video: interesting, well done journey

Music: Really shines, slowly unraveling, you made excellent choices introducing new elements as the music moves forward. I might bring the vox down a bit as it enters the picture. Production and mix sound great ???? 

[Lynn Wilson]

Terrific, Bjorn!  You make it seem so easy, but I know how much work goes into something like this.  Very cool!

Like Ravi Shankar with 3 fingers at about the 1:20 mark?

Very cool overall, video and music.

Thanks for the comments and suggestions. Always appreciated!
tom - I was wondering if anyone would notice Ravi Shankar's missing finger!

Only because you mentioned the occasional “weird” results I think.
