Casio Island! (Casio MT-400v Keyboard Demo)
When I was 14, back in the 80s, I got my first electronic keyboard- a Casio MT-100. I made lots of rudimentary dual cassette deck overdub recordings with it, little sketches of tunes that usually were never developed. I lent my MT-100 to Cindy Lee Berryhill years ago and never got it back, but recently I bought a Casio MT-400v at a garage sale. It has all the same sounds/functions as the MT-100, plus a much needed analog filter section!
This is a new recording of one of my original Casio tunes called “Casio Island” with my MT-400v. I didn’t use the analog filter here, because I never had it on the MT-100 back in the day, and I wanted this version to be as close to the original as possible, just with better recording technology.
Recently I used this Casio in a live cover version of Yaz’s “Nobody’s Diary” with Marie Haddad singing. We just finished making a proper recording of it, again using only the Casio, though I used the computer to cheat alot! You can hear it at http://www.myspace.com/mariehaddad (5th song down).
You can hear the original version of Casio Island in all its tape-hissy glory here:

Ye Mera Dil – Don (2006) on Yamaha PSR E403 keyboard
It has been long since I posted my last video. Today I was thinking of killing a little time, so came up with this. I have played the song after listening to the newer version of it i.e. in Don 2006. I have done mistakes, but I am satisfied given a very short time in which it was made.
Hope u enjoy.
Please leave your comments, rating and subscribe the video.
I shall be putting more videos soon.
P.S. : I thank my classmate friend Mandar Patil for his help in line-in recording.

What electronic keyboard should I buy?
I am looking to invest in a starter electronic keyboard, because I want to learn how to play piano. I bought a cheapie one, but i hated the sound so much that I ended up just throwing it away. I’m definitely not looking to spend over $500, and would love to spend less. I am willing to watch craigslist and such for deals. What kind should I buy? Which accessories should I get? Are there any good books that teach chords and songs right away?

Casio PT-100 keyboard (NOT circuit-bent!)
Here I give a quick (and quite amateurish — I am not a good keyboard player by any means!) demonstration of my Casio PT-100 keyboard. It is ALL ORIGINAL and NOT modified or “circuit bent” in any way, unlike almost all the other Casio keyboards you’ll find shown on YouTube!
From the late ’80, the PT-100 was one of the last and most advanced Casio keyboards to use exclusively multi-pulse squarewave sounds… *not* FM synthesis or digital samples! It also features Casio Chord with percussion accompaniment, which also makes some very nice retro-style synthesized electronic sounds, especially the “zizz” sound of the hi-hat cymbal.
I just wish they made a bigger keyboard with the same electronics, because I really like its sounds (both keyboard voices and percussion / accomaniment), but especially with Casio Chord enabled, it doesn’t give you very many keys to play the melody on.
p.s. The snippet of melody I keep repeating is from Louise Tucker’s “Dancing By Moonlight”, which itself is based on some classical composer’s melody, the identity of which is unknown to me.
