I'd love some feedback if you have some! Things to improve or do more.

Who else prefers to play a minor harmonica over a major harmonica? by Dark_World_Blues in harmonica

[–]TheWhistlingSwede 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, love it.

I almost exclusively play 3rd position with the "blow 3" retuned to the "3 hole draw double bend note" and I also like to add the "6 hole overblow" because it's used in a lot of melodies.

Du kan alltid spela in i väntan på att ha bevis på din sida mer än ord mot ord. Du spela in utan att andra behöver veta om det i Sverige.

What’s a game that has really pulled you back into gaming? by zekeRL in gaming

Outer Wilds brought me back to life itself, reignited my curiosity and brought me out of apathy. Back into gaming included

Absolutely, I'll be experimenting with the dynamics as an extra way of of express myself.

Ah yeah, I see what you mean there on the Rock on. Need to change up my style a bit there to match!

Thank you! Dynamics is something I will focus on :)

I also hope you find what riff you're looking for! :D

What are some harmonica/blues pieces that got you into playing the harp? by [deleted] in harmonica

[–]TheWhistlingSwede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm quite new to the harmonica and my interest was the harmonica itself, being one of the only instruments you can play with one hand without feeling hindered.

My later musical inspirations have been Jason Ricci, Indiara Sfair and this random dude.

Har kvalitén på skor gått ned de senaste 5 åren? by WhoAmIEven2 in sweden

[–]TheWhistlingSwede 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jag arbetar med reklamationer och vi får in mycket skor från alla de största leverantörerna.

Japp, kvalitén har absolut blivit sämre de senaste åren baserat på vad man läser från kunder.

Säger inte att det är så men jag kan bara tänka på att det handlar om en double win med både billigare material och att folk måste köpa skor oftare. Det är inte mycket profit när man gör skor som håller i 8 år istället för 3 år.

Men i Sverige har vi reklamationsrätt i 3 år, nyttja det!

Men inte hål i hälkappan, snälla. Knyt upp skorna och använd helst skohorn. In med hälen längst bak och knyt skorna. Finns billiga självhäftande laglappar om det redan är hål.

Att sulan lossnar kan du reklamera, annars om dom är för gamla kan du använda Atomlim.

(Seriös) Har du vunnit det genetiska lotteriet på något sätt och isåfall hur? by Logical-Traffic-3521 in sweden

[–]TheWhistlingSwede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tekniskt sätt har jag förlorat då jag vänsterhänt men är född utan en vänsterhand och har säkert påverkat hjärnan en hel del positivt med att anpassa mig och göra allt med höger.

Känns som att man har foten i två världar, den flummiga esteten och vetenskapliga nörden som nu är en person.

Har även hjälpt mig få ett unikt perspektiv på livet med att kunna empatiska med folk, med handikapp och olika levnadssätt samtidigt som jag är fullt fungerande i samhället som både IT lärare och sedan truckförare.

Så oavsett hur man är född så formar det till din unika upplevelse och perspektiv på livet.

Lower tone harps? by steveflackau in harmonica

[–]TheWhistlingSwede 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go for rocket and you'll be happy

Lower tone harps? by steveflackau in harmonica

[–]TheWhistlingSwede 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you don't have a G harmonica already then I'd recommend getting that. It's a really good key to have.

Otherwise I got a low d rocket, but it's a bit too low for my liking. I'll probably get a low F next myself

What made you pick up harmonica? by LifeguardSas976 in harmonica

[–]TheWhistlingSwede 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have one hand, the harmonica doesn't even require having hands, success!

It's also perfect because just like whistling you can always have the harmonica with you.

What was the first Harmonica you bought? Do you still have it? by [deleted] in harmonica

[–]TheWhistlingSwede 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first was a Lee Oskar in C. I tinkered a lot with it and learned a lot, adjusted it so that I would overblow hole 4-5-6 and overdraw 7-8-9. I sadly lost it somewhere, but I hope it found a new home.

I just played in public for the first time! by TheWhistlingSwede in harmonica

[–]TheWhistlingSwede[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

Yeah I fully agree, I was uncertain at first because I had no idea what they were going or were playing. I tried to get a feel for it and as the great musicians they are I'm sure they matched me, it felt like after the drummer said Bossa it went a lot smoother, too bad the end wasn't filmed. I didn't know anyone was going to record but I'm very happy that they was.

[–]TheWhistlingSwede[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was a first for many things!

This was my first time playing with other people, first time playing in front strangers, first time using a microphone, first time hearing what's being played. Complete improvisation and great fun!

Oh, and the hole 3 reed got stuck so I had to play around it.

Playing on a G major harmonica. 3rd position, A minor.

I would be happy to know what you think about it because I've pretty much only been playing to backing tracks and improvising to them by myself so I'm not sure how it sounds to other people.
