Pizza

Line-in from my dying DGX-500 Yahama keyboard. Missing notes at the end because I didn't have enough floppy disc space left for the first and second MIDI channels (the melody's on the third). T'was fun to play though I hate hearing my arpeggios without some sort of quantization.


Yay for playing keyboard drums!
Yay for wanting pizza and being unable to afford it!

Yeah! Pizza!
This is awesome. Super jazzy chords, fresh beats, and I think the lack of quantization adds to the character of the piece (also damn nice live recording of those arpeggios). And dang, wish those notes could've come through in the end.
Still, lovin' it. (But not in a fast food sort of way.)

Haha! I really appreciate your words. It lifted my spirits and now I feel cute because of you!

Damn, dude. This is classic Sylvester. Lovin' it.

The lack of quantization is probably my favorite part of this track - it still sounds tight and groovy, but human!

The ending works too, in my opinion! Great work either way!

Aw! Thanks y'all. big_smile Usually when stuff like that happens at the end I try to fill the void using a DAW. It would be easier for me to record directly into a DAW but I actually find it more difficult.
