valiha

Valiha melody. Pronounced vahlee. A harplike instrument from Madagascar, strung on a large piece of bamboo. A few variations on a melodic theme I played and recorded in my living room. Recorded directly into a MOTU 828 with some small contact mics I found at a garage sale. (actually it was a stoop sale in Brooklyn). The sound is lofi and crunchy.
