To me, the entire premise of the song is a very I, for one, found the ending to be absolutelyīrilliant. Overall, the pure emotion present within the nay is what drives Variety to keep the piece from getting too boring. The occasional accompanying instruments add just enough Needed, as the nay provides all the dynamic/emotional aspects of The beat itself is extremely simple, repeating the same 4 Unexpected twists to keep one interested. Other instruments joined in, but got a nice example of what toĮxpect from the rest of the piece: minimalistic, with just a few I was expecting another round of the intro before any Piano makes a minimalist appearance (a whole 7 spine chilling There were quite a bit of times where I just wasn't prepared for Though there's some hiss on the recording and the ending stops a little abruptly, there's phrases here that are stunning, and I do think Tamimi's done an excellent job in rendering the original theme in a new fashion, with a unique instrument that I'd not previously heard of but have quickly grown to appreciate. Synth pads and a great synth harp join into a gorgeous extended passage without the clear lead of the intro, which makes a return at 2'47". This concludes your world music educational lesson for the night :) Built on crystalline electric piano and bell, you can hear the nay immediately - it wavers with an intimate uncertainty that makes it quite ideal for a lead part in this sort of piece. Its poetical timbre makes it especially suitable for melancholy effects expressing both joy and yearning." Fine, mellow tones are brought forth by blowing gently over the orifice of the tube while manipulating the fingers and thumbs by blowing with more or less force, sounds are produced an octave higher or lower, and tunes in different scales can be played by utilizing nays of various lengths.Īlthough very simple, the nay is extraordinarily versatile. Nay is the generic Arabic name for simple open-ended reed instruments which usually have 6 holes in the front for the fingers to play and 1 hole underneath for the thumb. "The word nay from Persian is used to describe a single reed pipe of the simplest design whose origins go back to the Sumerian civilization. Tamimi also used an Arabic instrument called a "nay", which he plays, extensively - it's quite beautiful and lends a very important human, emotional element to this piece. Anyway, his mix from the original Silent Hill is quite good and, unlike many mixes of this game, favors melodic content over nightmarish ambient effects. One of my better friends is Afghan, so hopefully that clears things up a bit for him (sent an email tonight but no response yet).

Rest assured, this is not the case - we may be slow, true, but not racist. Not sure why, but for some reason he attributed the delay between him submitting his ReMix and it getting posted to OC ReMix being "racist" and anti-Arab.
