Duration: 2 min 52 s
Description: An instrumental only cover of the Yes song from "Tormato"

Great stuff Graham! Excellent cover mate!

We remember when we first bought Tormato - I didn't like it and put it back in the rack for months - then pulled it out and gave it a good listen. It became one of my favourite albums - so good to hear it again.

The Countdown WITH OTHER STUFF

This is a collaboration with a Soundcloud member, Roberto Ricco, who is based in Italy. I supplied the basic 12 string guitar part and Roberto built upon it doing all the bass, drums, keyboards, and electric guitars. His lead playing is phenomenal.

All in vain - instrumental EP edit

Some rework on my 2011 track Floating - this year seems to be my rediscovery of the good ole piano;The instrument that introduced me to songwriting. As I write my songs mostly on guitar nowadays it suprises me how much I actually love playing keys again. As for Floating it was quite inspiring as it brought a lot of new ideas to the original track, as well as changing the vocals somewhat - I hope I still managed to keep that sense of Floating in this rework.

Performances and recordings are of the highest quality, and the CDs are accompanied by a beautiful 40-page booklet.

We also see the band maturing into their own identity, as this, their second album, finds them penning fresh original tunes as well.The Samurai are joined by a bevy of guest artists, making 'Secrets of Disguise' a rich and textured feast for the ears.

The Samurai of Prog - Time And A Word by YES (feat. Jon Davison on vocals)

Started putting together my home studio in the 70's when I was in my teens (back when there was only analog and the smallest computers filled a warehouse). As a keyboard player (started off on piano), my biggest influences were people/bands like Rick Wakeman/ Yes, Elton John, Keith Emerson, Jethro Tull, Kansas, etc - in fact any of the "super" groups of the 70's that had a keyboard player! 
Have had a succession of keyboards and synths over the years, including my first - the original Roland EP10 electric piano, Roland SH5 synth, Moog Satellite, Korg Mono/Poly, and the Roland MKB1000 MIDI controller and piano module. 
I just play and compose for my own enjoyment, and my preparedness to spend money on my hobby greatly exceeds my ability, but it keeps me happy and off the streets. 
Over the years I have had several hiatuses from the hobby as university, work and family have intervened at different points! In 2008 I jumped in to the computer music arena and that has reinvigorated my interest. Finding this web site is helping me feel part of a larger musical community. 
My home studio includes a Roland RD800 Piano, Cakewalk by Bandlab as my DAW (long user of Cakewalk and Sonar), Roland MIDI/ Audio interface; Behringer X-Touch Controller, and many VSTs - including the Arturia V Collection and modular synths from Cherry Audio.
