The original is really slow and melancholic, and as my student colleagues wanted to do a cover track (to the original tempo), I thought it would be fun to produce a Dance version. It actually turned out much better than I thought it would!  :-)

Radiohead - Exit For a Film (Instrumental Dance Mix!)

Just a gentle groove for a historic song!

In The Summertime

The Garden Of Earthly Delights by Arzachel is a wonderful song.  This band had a unique and psychedelic sound before anyone ever heard of Pink Floyd.

The Garden of Earthly Delights is also a triptych painted by the early Netherlandish master Hieronymus Bosch (c. 1450–1516), housed in the Museo del Prado in Madrid since 1939. Dating from between 1490 and 1510, when Bosch was about 40 or 50 years old, it is his best-known and most ambitious work.  It reveals the artist at the height of his powers; in no other painting does he achieve such complexity of meaning or such vivid imagery.

Therefore this song, with its epic imagery and spacey melodies could be a refereance to this classic painting.

Comprised of what was then the band URIEL, ARZACHEL was the earliest formation of Steve HILLAGE and Dave STEWART. ARZACHEL had two things which helped transition it to be CD era: the music is a head above most other psych rarities, and the four musicians later achieved marginal success within the '70s progressive rock "Canterbury scene". 

The record itself featured some of the most explosive psychedelia by an English group. The sound of sustained keyboard and guitar passages are full blown drawn-out psychedelia of the highest order, think EGG, GONG, NATIONAL HEALTH, CARAVAN etc. Collectors of rare psychedelia recognize ARZACHEL's sole LP as being one of the most desired (and pricey) relics from the late '60s

Garden of Earthly Delights
written by BASIL DOWLING, NJEROGI GATEGAKA and SAM LEE-UFF
performed by Arzachel

and once you see my ladys face
it is a cloudy garden place
where nuts of beauty have such grace
and all this work and no more space

there is a sweet delicious morn'
where days breed and never born
it is a meadow yet unchorn
which thousands flowers do adore

it is the heavens bright reflects
we guise to dazzle and to vex
it is the idea of her sex
whose memory the world the best 

there is a sweet delicious morn'
where days breed and never born
it is a meadow yet unchorn
which thousands flowers do adore

it is the outward face of you
it is the thing that is most truth
the spring that winter hearts renew
and this is that my soul pursues

(guitar solo)

AWOLNATION - Sail

Original Track : Gershon Kingsley - Pop Corn(1969)

Gershon Kingsley - Pop Corn(Remix by Alfakraft)

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.

Santana - 20 Black Magic Woman (Original Edit)

Remixed Midi's on the Yamaha Clavinova CVP705. I do not play them but produce the audio remixes using this great keyboard !

Led Zeppelin Dazed & Confused

Led Zeppelin - Whole Lotta Love

1970 469 - Rattles - The Witch - (45) (2.27)

Santana - Europa

Check out the guitar voice. What would Grandpa have said if he knew you could get these sounds out of his beloved Clavinova ? :-)

Gary Moore - Still Got The Blues

John Murphy - The Surface Of The Sun (Sunshine)

"Blinding Lights" is a song by Canadian singer the Weeknd. It peaked at number one in thirty-four countries, including the United States and Canada, where it became the Weeknd's fifth number one single on the Billboard Hot 100 and the Canadian Hot 100 for four and seven weeks, respectively. It also became his first number one single in Germany for ten weeks, the United Kingdom for eight weeks, and Australia for eleven weeks, thus making it his most successful single worldwide to date

The Weeknd - Blinding Lights

I always thought the words in the rap were a bit silly! This version keeps the good bits!   :-)

Blondie - Rapture

So I discovered this Finnish metal cello and drums quartet called Apocalypta and took something approximating their classical arrangement of this Metallica song (for three cellos and a drummer) and combined it with what, I thought, a rock band would do if they were also on stage.

It turned out quite well!

Funkinova's World Album

Apocalypta - Nothing Else Matters

Instrumental version of the great love song from 1980 at the height of Dire Straits' creative period.

Dire Straits - Romeo And Juliet

The song was by the Swiss duo Double released in 1985. The song is a ballad about a woman who stops waiting for her absent lover to return. The single was an international success, reaching No. 8 on the UK Singles Chart and No. 16 on the Billboard Hot 100, making Double the first Swiss act to reach the top 40 on the latter chart.

Double - Captain Of Her Heart

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!
