Circle Of Life

Postby MichaelW » 18 Feb 2024 15:36

Hello everyone,

After I recorded my first title from The Lion King with the Tyros 5 in 2015 with a self-made audio background choir multipad (see 2nd link), now follows the second title "Circle Of Life" after barely 9 years, again with foot-controlled background audio snippets. Somehow it appeals to me to make a little use of the existing technology. And since I don't play in public, I no longer have to be compatible with the masses.

I use a style, a multipad, three choir audio snippets and nothing else. The "screaming" at the beginning is a special voice that is integrated into the style intro.



Can You Feel The Love Tonight? (1 style, 1 multipad and 2 choir audio snippets; the "screaming" at the beginning and at the end is a special voice)

Recording on the Genos2 will be available soon.

P.S. I love the music of Sir Elton John very much and hope I play it appropriately.
Best regards - Michael

I'm playing on a Yamaha Genos2 with a Viscount Legend (Hammond) Expander and on a Roland V-Accordion.

Hi Michael. Enjoyed the Elton John. Wrote some great music. I remember him on Michael Parkinson. Some brought in some lyrics and he set it to music and had a fabulous result. I think he said if he doesn’t get inspired in a half an hour he gives up. However loved watching your videos. John

Hi there I have played from the age of 13 and all my music is played in a sort of dance tempo style. Have worked in nearly all the North East clubs over the years. That gave me a good grounding. Cheers.

Hello Michael,

Wow! I’m blown away at these two splendid performances. Great to hear Circle of life played on Genos 2. Love the voices used, especially the vocals.

But my favourite has to be Can you feel the love, performed on Tyros. Love your graphics. Your playing is truly outstanding. Very enjoyable. Thank you for sharing.

Regards

James.
