holy shit this has richer harmonies than anything I have heard on the radio in the last couple of months

there are types of musical notation and descriptions from ancient civilizations-- for example roman, egyptian, etc all have accounts of music but for the most part it is uninterperetable how it really sounded. there are ancient music musicians who study these musics and learn to play ancient instruments how they may have been played but it is largely speculative.
any ancient folk tradition has inevitably been distorted through time as well
Justin Gomez
that's really amazing, it actually sounds a lot like the stuff john fahey was doing in the 90's. Anyone know any more of this kind of thing?
Daniel Sullivan
keep in mind its largely speculative. no one knows exactly how it sounded or would have been performed
Joshua Lewis
there are a number of people who study ancient musics today. that recording was made by michael levy who has several albums that feature interperetations of ancient musics from various civilizations...
Adrian Walker

Brayden Gray
It's just a basic scale, and any harmony is 3rds, 4ths or 5ths.
Carter Peterson
Haha yeah white people acting black is the worst
Nicholas Scott
what is it based off? some sort of ancient music notation? or by using found old instruments in archeological sites and investigating into its structure?

I've never once uttered this word seriously before, but that's gonna be a YIKES from me.

in some cases there are forms of written notation that exists. rome had written musical scores-- just no one fully understands them. other cases there are written accounts of what it sounded like or how the events proceeded with the music etc... and of course pictoral depictions and capabilities of the instruments themselves.
