60s Classics - Part 1

1960's and before

These tracks were edited using the CVP705 and demonstrate the audio capability of the excellent keyboard. I am hoping that Yamaha will address the major weakness of having very limited free available memory after which I would give the keyboard 10/10. 

Monkeys - Daydream Believer

Motown - The Very Best Of The 60'S

Mason Williams - Classical Gas

Glenn Miller - In The Mood

Back to the 60's, Vol. 1

Dizzy (Rerecorded)

So it is never quite clear why one cover track might get a few thousand plays and others just a few. So I thought I would put this that I produced around three years ago back in the spotlight to see if it can get some more plays this second time around.

As one of my earlier tracks it is one of the first where I gave it a treatment that didn't try and be too close to the original.

David Bowie - Space Oddity (Instrumental)

Chuck Berry - Johnny Be Good

Very happy with this original track based on a beat by LJandpad. Have used Ableton to my fullest extent so far and have included words in English, Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, Russian, German and Italian in that order. Please pass on to your friends who speak those languages. Having used a number of translators and text to speech functions, I expect that the results will be very funny, but also my first international hit!

One World, One Club, One Beat!

An instrumental version of an old rocker.

Funkinova

Ram Jam - Black Betty

A cool instrumental version of this classic 80's track

Chris Isaak - Wicked Game

David McWilliams - Days Of Pearly Spencer

Dave Berry had a few hits, particularly in Europe, but this is the best one!

Hi all, so from 2016 to 2024 I assembled and produced a large collection of covers of many of my favorite tunes as my own hobby (and many during COVID lock-downs!) and I have accumulated over 2,900,000 plays across the world which is awesome!

I am much more of a producer that a musician. These first 8 years of my music was mostly based on midi cover tracks often downloaded from the Internet but heavily reproduced and re-imagined variously on my two Yamaha keyboards (Clavinova and PSR 975), but also using PC midi editing & DAW software.

Towards the end of that period, I added some of my more original electronic music which I produced over the past two decades under the name of Funkleberry in order to consolidate my Soundcloud accounts. 

But in 2024 I got into AI music generation and I am now  a freelance songwriter and AI music producer. It's been a fun journey!
