messin with a guitar sound (will be on my next CD)

**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 . 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 and what people say. In the long run it’s about the fun that YOU have making music.

Thanks for watching!!!

Original Symphonic Garageband Composition 2

This is the 3rd song i have made using . This song is completely original and was made using only a keyboard. no loops or samples were used. i realize this song sounds very similar to the previous one… but i can’t help but write similar music :) hope you enjoy it. let me know what you think.
