1990's

There are three well known versions of this track. the original by Cameo, the early 90's hit by Gun and also one by Korn. 

I attributed this to Gun, being the first version that I heard, even though Cameo's original had been released some time before.

Funkinova

Gun - Word Up

Classic 1997 Dance track which started out as a Dance Instrumental and then Alice picked it up and put lyrics to it.

Alice DeeJay - Better Off Alone

The latest 2023 release by Funkinova and his Latin American Steel Band performing Jimmy Nail's 1992 classic hit!

Jimmy Nail - Ain't No Doubt

This was their breakthrough from 1997. It's a great song!!

Smash Mouth - Walking On The Sun

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. 

Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony

Edwyn Collins - A Girl Like You

These tracks were edited using the CVP705 and demonstrate the audio capability of the excellent keyboard.

Lisa Stanfield - All Around The World

21 Channels and still work in progress but Take 1 had a laggy thing going on when I listened on someone else's ipod player.

Will go back to the drawing board for Take 3 but I have proven the technology !!

ADIEMUS Take 2

Enigma - Mea Culpa

After 20+ years in the business they produced their best track in 2005!

Depeche Mode - Precious

Darude - Feel The Beat

Muse - Sunburn

A fun instrumental cover of what was very big in Germany in 1996, but only made #31 in Australia.

Fool's Garden - Lemon Tree

Warren G - Regulate

An instrumental version of this 1992 "best rap song".

DJ Jazzy Jeff - Summertime

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 2,800,000 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 sonwriter and AI music producer. It's been a fun journey!
