folk

My name is Mark! Silver (and yes, the exclamation point is part of the name). I'm an independent musician from the lovely united state of Wiscodisco (Wisconsin). I've been doing music-related things throughout my life, and have made music of more genres and styles than I can keep track (though "indie-rock" isn't a bad descriptor). In February of 2016, I first tried Ubuntu, & I switched to Linux full-time around April of that same year.

Harney-Barrow is a multimedia project run by web alias Alejandro Ramos Ferrer out of an isolated rural town in the United States.

Music has influences ranging from 70s Soft Rock/Pop Rock to more modern or contemporary musicians like Oneohtrix Point Never and the former Kimberly Kubus.

I am born in 1977. I got interested in MIDI while I was a college student. Then I went to learn Pipa for understanding Asian folk tradiition. After graduating from school, I  changed to study Jazz harmony with my teacher and how to improvise by an ukulele.

My root is blues and Jazz and some asian folkmusic. I make music on a KXstudio Linux. I almost only use FOSS, mainly Ardour and Rosegarden.

I make cover videos and record original songs, mainly on my YouTube channel. Sometimes I do massively multi-track productions, other times I do live versions, sometimes you'll find me dueting with myself and occasionally you'll even find me conducting experiments like covering Taylor Swift using just my laptop's built in hardware, my voice and whatever I can find to bash around the house! I do all stages of production myself, including the recording, mixing, mastering, filming, editing and making the cover art, and all with open source.
