    Hi,
    I try to reproduce this sound and this melody without success, the instrument used is surely from a Korg (PA series or Pa3X), I did not find a very close vst sound.

    I also did not find the scale and especially the tuning (microtuning) used.

    Any idea ?

    A beautiful playback :no::no::no::no:
    Try to use the pitch modwheel & automate this.

    Of course it is a playback, a recording of this quality cannot be done in such a room :)
    For the modwheel, I tried but it sounds wrong, the tuning is not western in my opinion and I did not find the scale

    What is the vibe? Is that a funny song? Dramatic? a love theme? It is difficult to understand just hearing the sound. I'd be interested in a translation of lyrics

    The vibe is sad (even depressive). it's about drinking alcohol to fight a life without a goal. I attended a few Macedonian parties here in Germany and when they (Macedonians) listen to it, they dance, drink (a lot) and cry (even more).

    This is a rough and summarized translation :

    "...How our heads are under this stone
    Sometimes bitter, and sometimes like sherbet,
    When the weekend comes
    We go to the bolero and we do everything.
    Drinking Whiskey with Coca Colla
    We go work only to work
    When the time comes to go home,
    We come with new problems in our heads..."
