“The American Music Shop featured a different artist each week. Concerts were given in a small, intimate theater and recorded live. In addition to the artists’ own bands, the American Music Shop band accompanied the performers, giving these concerts a unique sound.” (Written by Jason A. Cormier -IMDB Website)

I also whole-heartedly agree with the following author:
“The American Music Shop was one of the greatest music shows ever! Even now, No show has given us the variety and talent that was aired on this program. Heavy’s from Country, Folk, Blues, Bluegrass, Zydeco, would give these amazing performances with as much energy as being at their live shows. The production and sound quality was far superior to any thing CMT could ever do today. I still regularly watch the shows I was lucky enough to have taped. After the show had ended, I asked Jerry Douglas and Mark O’Connor if they missed doing the show, both said “yes”. I wish that the powers that be would sell the shows to syndication. That way, more of the world could enjoy the rich flavor this varied musical flow gave us each week when it aired”. (Written by Pnai -IMDB Website User Comment)

Yes, I too would buy Re-mastered DVDs of all three years of this show if it was available. Please!

This is my entry into the “This Contest Blows” contest held by Smule, the makers of the wonderful Ocarina app for the iPhone (and many other apps too).

This recording was kind of rushed and done last minute, I hope everyone enjoys it!

Thanks to Mudasar for letting me use his iPhone for recording since mine had very bad quality, I think my mic has been busted over the year.

**this tune will be on my next CD – I came up with this jam recently so I don’t have it available yet. thanks for all the emails and interest in it! can’t wait til it’s done (hopefully in December).

just havin some fun with a guitar sound (Hard Ramp AS1&2) on the Motif XS8. Some have asked about the “low notes” that come out when I hit those two keys up top – those are guitar effects built in the patch and for whatever reason, Yamaha put those effects on the high keys.

I made the background beat using FL Studio. I start the beat by hitting the space-bar on my computer keyboard before I play on the synth.

PS. I’ve read some reviews of this vid as if I’m trying to be a “keytar” player (apparently not a desirable thing, but how can you not like Edgar Winter’s “Frankenstein”) and that I should just play a real guitar. LOL @ some of those same people who probably play guitar hero (nothing against it but hopefully you see my point)! The irony! The point is, folks, if you find a fun/inspiring sound to jam with, by all means, you should JAM WITH IT! I don’t care if you find a $3.00 plastic trumpet. Don’t worry about the technicalities and what people say. In the long run it’s about the fun that YOU have making music.

Thanks for watching!!!

The version you can buy from me is close to what I play here. I DID keep a lot of the guitar. So I have a bunch of that in there with cool piano part in the middle where it calms down, then speeds back up into more guitar. Anywho, I hope you like it!

Thanks for the awesome comments.

This was inspired by watching this dude, as you all have probably seen already:

I’m using FL Studio to make the beat and playing on a Korg Triton LE keyboard.

More info about Sampler:
A sampler is an electronic musical instrument closely related to a synthesizer. Instead of generating sounds from scratch, however, a sampler starts with multiple recordings (or “samples”) of different sounds, and then plays each back based on how the instrument is configured. Because these samples are usually stored in RAM, the information can be quickly accessed.
The sampler has become an important instrument in hip hop, electronic music, and avant-garde music.
Unlike traditional digital audio playback, each sample is associated with a set of synthesis parameters, and can thus be modified in many different ways.
Most samplers have polyphonic capabilities – they are able to play more than one note at the same time. Many are also multitimbral: they can play back different sounds at the same time.

Types:
Samplers can be classified as phrase samplers or studio samplers. The latter term is informal, the former appears in the manufacturer’s documentation.
Phrase samplers work with the philosophy of a drum kit. Each keymap spans only a single key and generally has a different sample put under it. For a studio sampler, this would require a large number of zones (61 to fill a regular keyboard), each with its own settings; and each keymap has to be programmed as spanning just one key. This is a lot of work, especially on older menu-driven hardware samplers. Using the phrase sampling approach simplifies this and makes a translation to another interface (such as the 16 pads on the Akai MPC series) easier; the fact that each pad is actually a note is hidden from the user. It also saves computing power as the sampling engine does not have to re-pitch each sample (there is no need for an anti-aliasing algorithm) – it only has to play it back. Since the user interface is simplified in general, it is also a more attractive option for live use.
Studio samplers work as described above with the keymapping system. It is assumed that the user wants to “spread out” a sample over a certain range of keys. This has certain side-effects. These are desirable – such as speeding up or slowing down drum loops, effectively turning a sampler into a digital turntable. In some cases this is not desired; when for instance not enough samples are taken of an instrument, the higher and lower parts of a keymap may sound unnatural, and the transition from one keymap to another may be too noticeable. For mimicking realistic instruments, the art is to make transitions as smooth as possible.
The format differs in obvious ways – studio samplers are available in 19″ rack format, phrase samplers have a groovebox format; lightweight, easy to operate and carry.
