Welcome to OrientalVibe! Before I explain myself, I would like to tell you that if you want to donate something, it will go straight to a good cause. I have a full-time job so I don't need the money. I also regularly donate to charities and if you do that too, that's great because there are plenty of people and animals who desperately need it, all over the world. Thank you!
I play Oriental, Ethnic and Mediterranean songs. Most of them are self improvised songs but I also make cover songs. A variety of Cultural, Traditional, Folk and Modern music.
My physical instrument collection is: Yamaha PSR A350 keyboard, Cherrystone Bb clarinet, Turkish Ney and Armenian Duduk.
However, I only use Yamaha PSR A350 keyboard and Cherrystone Bb clarinet because I find Turkish Ney and Armenian Duduk too hard to play.
I use the following Virtual Instruments/software: Reaper, Oriental Soloist 2, Oriental Soloist, Breath of Anatolia, Virtual Bouzouki

Let us pray: Lord God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, one God amen. We pray for peace to the Middle East and the rest of the World. You already reveal Yourself through life and love and through nature on planet Earth. It is Your creation. We are Your creation. Now it is the time for all humankind to choose for You. For You are good and the only one who implement life and love to all Your creation. Not death, destruction or sinful nature, which is from the ugly satan.

R.I.P. Pantelis Pantelidis. Great artist with great Greek songs. Only 33 years young. Klámata (Κλάματα) - Tears (instrumental cover). Recorded on my old keyboard.
This is my cover of 'As You Will' from Nessi Gomes - A prayer of faith and hope for these challenging times. Music & Lyrics by Shye Ben Tzur. Translation from Hebrew:"Here I am completely yours, Do as you will with me. I've come empty I surrender, My heart is at your mercy. Even if everything is taken away from me, Within me I will hear your voice. From the pain, it will resurrect me and fill me with inspiration"Let us surrender to God, who created us and heaven and earth. And let's pray for Israel and world peace. In Jesus name amen.
Yes I really love the Bouzouki! And the Greek spirit! Yia mas (Cheers)! By the way, that's not me in the photo. It's AI generated!
Hi there my friends! Enjoy the Greek spirit with this joyful instrumental covered song from Glykeria and Giannis Miliokas, accompanied with a shot of ouzo if you like hehe 😜This style/rythm is from the city of Kalamata in Greece. Personally I like this style a lot because it is just uplifting and different from other music. It is noted at 7/8. Normally, songs are 4/4 of 3/4. Zeibekiko is also my favorite style which is 9/8 (if I am correct) but anyway, enjoy and thanks for listening! If you like it, please give it a like!
Don't you like Bachata? I love it! This is my instrumental cover of Volar - Belen Moreno but in Bachata style.
Instrumental cover of a Greek pop song De Mas Sychoro / Δε μας συγχωρώ / I Don't Forgive Us - Eleni Tsaligopoulou. https://lyricstranslate.com/en/de-mas-sygxoro-i-dont-forgive-us.html. Thank you for listening! If you like it, follow me to get updated when new songs are uploaded! :D
I've upgraded my arranger from Yamaha PSR A350 to Korg PA700 Oriental and recorded my first song on OrientalVibe using my new arranger! It is a next level, next step arranger with higher quality styles and instruments and more functionality which I needed. This is a cover song of Themis Adamantidis - Ma Pou Na Pao (Where To Go), actually my favorite song. The Bouzouki sounds realistic and the instrument is made by Keyart and the style is Zeibekiko. Both are downloaded online and transfered to my Korg arranger. Thanks for listening, my Greek fans! Image of the Greek bouzouki is generated by Electra AI within MakuluLinux Discord.

Zeibekiko (Greek: Ζεϊμπέκικο) is a Greek folk dance. The dance became popular in many songs of Laiko music. The Zeibeikiko, as an old dance, is strictly for males. Due to the movements of the dancer, it is sometimes known as the "eagle dance". It is one of my favorite music styles. The rythm is 9/8.

Many different cultures live(d) together and it contains of a lot of villages.
