Improvisation #1

By an0va on February 23, 2014 11:48 pm

Feeling kinda meh on this one. I spent all my free time this week trying to fix MSDOS computers and figuring out a stable way of emulating Amiga that I completely forgot about this week. And within the past hour, I just booted up my DX keyboard and improvised two tracks : one being a rhodes piano and the other being a bell lead. Both tracks were done in one take and I'm a novice keyboard player at best so excuse the messups through out - I literally didn't know what chord to go to next each time on the rhodes track and then when I tracked the bell I forgot what the chords were, lol. Started off with some Eastern raga-influenced thing but then some how it turned into a Save Room from Resident Evil, which I am ok with I guess!

Classic DX and the chords make me wish I could play Chronotrigger again smile  Very cool vibe throughout.

Thank you and you know what - I will! I managed to at least get the emulation to be stable but now I'm just fumbling through the OS and shell - I'll reach out to you soon!

Thanks man! It's a DX27. It's super rad and I got it for so cheap, it isn't even fair. wink
