Some Music for Your Ears
In my spare time, I like to make music on my piano keyboard. It’s a pretty high-end board called a Yamaha Motif XS. I have another one which is an older version called a Yamaha Motif ES. They both are really cool and fun to play around with. The possibilities of making music are endless on these things. Since the keyboard does not speak to me as my computer does, I have to remember all of the buttons and maneuver around the screens by memory. It’s tough trying to keep all of the information in your head but as you continue to work on the keyboard, you get used to working in certain modes and everything becomes natural. You can do everything on these work station keyboards including recording voacls and recording music from external instruments/devices.
I play the keyboard and made this instrumental that I would like for you to hear. Take a listen and tell me what you think about it.

Love your talk today at GMS! and love your music! It really relaxed me after a very stressful day. Did you compose it?

Hey, what about the tune the Dawgs played for Taiwan in Beepball last weekend?

Yes, I composed the entire song on my own.
