You Can Make the Pathway Bright

Post by milo »

Last fall I made some intro/outro music for a podcast, but it didn't end up getting used. (Creative differences with the podcast host.) So I have been sitting on these recordings for about a year, and decided to just post them to the world in hopes that they will be useful to someone. They can be shared and reused freely using the Creative Commons Attribution license (CC-BY).

The tune is an old hymn called "You Can Make the Pathway Bright," which I arranged for piano, guitar, and mandolin. The piano is Salamander played through sfizz, and the other two instruments were played live by me. The recordings were done in Ardour 6.9 on Minux Mint 20.2 [Edit: that should read Linux Mint]. Plugins include Dragonfly Hall Reverb, x-42 compressors and EQ, sfizz, ... and I think that was it. Pretty simple.

Here they are: https://sanderson.band/2021/10/28/you-c ... ay-bright/

Enjoy!

Didn't know Minux had a Mint version: https://sourceforge.net/projects/minux/

I was joking of course. ;) That mandolin makes me think of Italy, I don't know why.

Hi @milo , good to read you againand hear from you. These two little pieces are well araanged. I hope you take it as the compliment I mean it to be, when I say: I can so hear this for a programme on our older citezon's radio. Perhaps a programme with nice anecdotes and a good moral.
The mandolin is a nice addition to the sound.

If I had a pod, I would've been happy to use these!

Very nice arrangements, with an uplifting mood.

Yeah, that mandolin (?) is great.

Thanks, everyone!

@jeanette_c: The recordings were intended for exactly the sort of podcast you describe. It is a series of interviews with artists, musicians, authors, and other media producers who are all members of my church. The purpose is to highlight their work and to talk to them about how they integrate their faith into their art. So, yeah -- lots of nice anecdotes and good morals. You nailed it.

Last year I was assistant producer for this podcast, but at the end of last season they brought on a new podcast host who wanted to take the podcast in a direction I didn't much care for. And she didn't like these recordings I made. There wasn't much else to do, so I resigned.
