walking clouds in the land

So there i am, waiting for my cake to cool, when my buzzer goes... it was Simon, open mic was cancelled and he'd come round to show me some new songs and share some posh coffee.

Having misplaced my capo, i quickly decided that trying to play guitar would be utterly futile and turned to the often-misused Casio MT-65 keyboard.



(a free-range MT-65)

In the past this piece of synth history has served two purposes; demo-ing unrealistic-sounding cello and trumpet parts, and producing "hilarious" chintzy covers of my own songs. Now that we're going all moody, Casiotone certainly has a place and the combination of fingerpicked acoustic guitar and 'Electric Piano' was certainly a winner.

After Simon left i iced my cake and converted my upbeat, guitar-led pop song into a slow, atmospheric dirge. Bardo Pond would be so proud of me.
