Is it a song? Sounds like the intro Pavao's Ka Manu, plus something else. I don't know... |

The tuning is called G Wahine aka Double Slack aka Auntie Alice tuning It's basically taropatch tuning with your G string tuned down 1/2 step to F#. (D-G-D-F#-B-D) Your "resolve" is the 1st fret of the 3rd string.One string tuned down 1/2 step makes a world of difference. |

Posted - 06/05/2019 : 3:29:36 PM Sir Duke nailed it, I heard it on Pandora on the way in to work. What tuning is it in? If its Open G taro patch, shame on me, das all I know! |

Posted - 06/02/2019 : 08:23:39 AM There is another source for for this - Rsy KAne's signature track on his Dancing Cat Album Wa'ahila. (Track 7) Though the timing is a little different and he does not go up the neck very far. This track always gets me. |

Hey Sebastian,
Here's Ledward playing that same intro to "Wheeha Swing" He simply calls it "Kiho'alu" If I'm not mistaken it was on his "Led Live" CD

Man, that's nice! Thanks, Duke! |

Posted - 03/08/2019 : 06:18:39 AM Sonny probably called it "Malasadas" because of the Portuguese influence on Hawaiian music - the ukulele and Iberian style harmonies - the "himeni" were Protestant hymns sung in the "Shape-note" style of harmony. Iberian style harmonies introduced parallel 3rds and 6ths. |

Sounds like Sonny Chillingworth's "Malasadas"

But then again these songs all use a common riff "Ka Manu" "Punahele" "Auntie Alice's 14 Measures"
Most of the songs in G Wahine tuning have that commonality |
