More from Pacato
When this result was brought about, old Fezziwig, clapping his hands to stop the dance, cried out, “Well done!” and the fiddler plunged his hot face into a pot of porter, especially provided for that purpose. But scorning rest, upon his reappearance, he instantly began again, though there were no dancers yet, as if the other fiddler had been carried home, exhausted, on a shutter, and he were a brand-new man resolved to beat him out of sight, or perish.
A fun holiday set of a pair of slipjigs: the first of which is Sir Roger de Coverly, an English country dance mentioned in Dicken's a Christmas Carol during Fezziwig's big holiday bash. Naturally, Pacato would be up on the podium breaking out his fiddle to keep the party going!
Fun fact, the Dance Sir Roger de Coverley was first mentioned in John Playford’s manual “The Dancing Master” in 1685. This dance is thought to portray the antics of a fox being hunted, dashing in and out of cover.

Oh wow, the instrumentation is so damn clean, absolutely phenomenal job on the mastering/mixing, I can hear every little detail so clearly. Did you use samples for the percussion or record them yourself? They sound so, so damn good!! And, as usual, you're just brilliant on the violin, bud~
The whole package just instantly transported me to a busy tavern, watching Pacato rouse the inn's semi-inebriated customers into song and dance. You did great on this, I really enjoyed it! :3

Thank you so much! :3 I'm glad the mixing turned out as well as it did for a bit of a rush job, I found a very useful EQ program called Gullfoss that does all sorts of real-time mixing magic behind the scenes to bring out clarity in whatever mixing bus I have it set to, and for my violin, my standard recording setup is a pair of good-quality gooseneck microphones that clip onto the body, one on each side to get a good close stereo mix. Then, it's a matter of finding a good reverb to lay over it to get the space effect.
As for the backing tracks, I wish I could say I was good enough to perform all of them but those are thanks to PG Music's Band-in-a-Box, which have sampled recordings of all different styles of music and instruments in just about any time signature. In this case, there's a whole Celtic world music set that includes the piano, bass, guitar, bodhran (frame drum) and the bouzouki playing rhythm. You basically input chords and like a MIDI track, it follows your chord progressions, and muting and volume control for when you want each part to come in. Very handy stuff, especially since the time signature for both those songs is in 9/8, and it's rather tricky to find any other phrase library out there that can do that kind of a rhythm X3
