Hoping the Carb community is diverse enough to help me out with my peculiar musical tastes.
Basically I'm an instrumental purist, I love tracks that are instrumental only unpolluted by anyone's voice no matter how angelic or otherwise it may be. So I'm hoping to find groups/performers or even just albums where by and large the performance is about finger dexterity and not vocal range or the supposedly deep deep meanings behind someone shouting at the top of their lungs.
Specifically I'm a fan of fast-paced fun upbeat music, the kind of stuff you want to tap your feet or or clap your hands to rather than headbang, or those majestic tracks some movies have that make you feel so small. They kind
So I was googeling riverdance earlier and guitar music but without much luck because every other track of the big name bands and performers according to Google had some lady working her vocal cords on it, and every 3rd track was something slower again. So I'm hoping I'll find some suggestions here.
To be very specific I was looking for riverdance or guitar music but since that's like to specific to get any sort of response I'm willing to even accept metal suggestions for instance, as long as it's just instruments doing the talking and nothing else , it all goes.
Let's see stuff I like to perhaps let you get a better understanding of what I'm after:
BIG fan of Rodrigo Y Gabriela, I own most of their stuff in live and studio versions. I absolutely love that percussion on the guitar thing like one also sees in the August Rush movie (kind of a modern instrumental Oliver twist type movie), I'd love another suggestion like that.
Actually I seem to like Mexican music in general
I like boere-musiek, but I've had my fill of it, looking for the same kind of thing but from up north somewhere (besides Germany as I'm also super familiar with that). So like rish riverdance/bluegrass/banjo/gypsey/hoedown type music.
I've been wanting to get into Jazz or Blues but again I can't seem to find anyone who consistently offers fast paced things and doesn't often degrade to slower stuff one might play in a bedroom if one was cheesy.
And then for majestic this likely doesn't help at all but I like stuff like the James Bond theme, Pirates of the Caribbean theme and the Battlefield 1944 theme so that's probably all once off stuff but if you know anyone that does stuff similar consistently that'd be be pretty cool (I know about Miracle of Sound already).
Piano Guys have some ok stuff.
Basically anything you can think of where you have serious concerns about the string instrument/s catching fire after the performance is over I'll probably want to know about it.
But as I said that may to be too specific so I'd just live to hear any pure instrumental (or at least 75% so) suggestions even if it doesn't fit with something I've said I'd like.
