Well, I make no claim to the authenticity of Ethno 2 samples - though assuming they are top notch is probably a safe bet. I just released a revised version to my private mailing list and here are the instruments:
This piece is a quasi-middle eastern section using the celtic 12, E, and D guitars and the lead Electric Bouzouki plus acoustic bass in Zurna tuning and the percussion includes Timbales, gong, Bendir, Daires, Darbuka, Tamborin, and Sistres.
Loved this. Thanks for the trip. Also thanks for the comment on Call Me Crazy. I've had alot of computer issues the last few weeks and haven't been able to be part of this wonderful music community. Glad to have a moment to enjoy it. You're quite the composer, sir. Would love to collaborate on something sometime, if that would interest you. I don't just do country, by the way.

very pleasant composition, and a great orchestation. although choirs might lack a bit of depth, mostly in the graves, there is really nothing wrong with those you've used..

They are mostly orchestral stuff, and realistic instruments outside synth, but i think there are plenty of synth things on the same site. if i did catch your question correctly hopefully i answered that same question.
Based on Norm Harris' Percussion Solo Moonbathing http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/moonbathing this piece uses bass pictured above after conversion to fretless and uses my fretless Fender Squire through the metallurgy 3 demo effect.
I have a story to tell. Debbie and I went to a Guitar Center across town looking for a cheap used bass for me to convert to fretless like I did my Squire Strat. Well.... I ran into a really nice used Ibanez 5 string bass - with a B below E…
what a wonderful mix of story telling and music,,,,are/were you a lit major??? ,,you have an amazing gift of word... you have a new fan,, recommend this to all( don't worry about the length ))!!!

Matter Of Fate- This song started as a riff I was doing while tuning my guitar. It sounded cool, so I happened to record it on a small dictation recorder I have so I wouldn’t forget it. When I listened to the riff it just screamed Sticky Fingers…

most impressive!!! the sound/tonal/texture qualities are superb!!!! the piano entry, is also superb (im gona need to find some new words so i don't keep repeating myself),, the sound mix between the piano and orch is very tight.... the movement flows,, it has beauty and an interesting depth/development,, the high point/rise about 10:30 ish is on a par with any of the "classical" greats,, interesting,, how it moves on from there... a very rich,,full ,, gorgeous musical work,,, you are an inspiration to me!!! if this is only the 1st mov,, then it's going to be a long concerto no? the closing octaves are superb,,
another,, very creative take on our musical world,, i really enjoy your musical explorations,,, sometimes i feel like someone in the old world in the 1500's listening to tales brought from the new world across the sea.... very interesting
This is a collab tune which was originally written by Tad Rees (aka Solo). He plays the Keyboard.synth, and I did the guitar and drums. The last half blends with his original which can be heard in completion at :

This is a serial improvisational piece (excepting some drum loops) in John O’Sullivan’s Blue JI tuning (which I rather like) – all of the instruments, African log drum, Nigerian log drum, Krin slit drum, Teponaxtli, Toere, Kaekeeke, Kalaau…
I wrote this song after me and my boyfriend who planned on getting married broke up. I was in a very desperate state and I believe God gave me the lyrics to this song. It's amazing how His peace brought me through what I thought I couldn't bear.:)

As for the song icon for Don't Look Down - a friend made it for me and I am not sure what he used. Subway is a good bet.
