Ladies and mostly gentlemen,

Proudly I present to you, exclusively to the Zone... my first recorded published song! It's a rendition (I think that's the right word?) of Dido with White Flag. I played it at 4 AM local time here, so the keys are not being hit that hard..
Played by heart.

I would really like to hear your critism and other comments...

Very nice,

My wife sang along with it right away. She said it sounds great.
We're doing our own little version of that song, so it was refreshing to hear yours.

Well balanced sounds. Well done.

Eric

Good job! More, more!

Sander,
I did not know this song, but I really liked it. Congratulations for the sound quality and also your keyboard skills. My only question is: does the original song also ends so abruptly? If the answer is "yes", then everything it's fine, otherwise maybe a most gradual ending could be better.
I definitely join Don Mason in his request of new songs!

Sander, great to not only see you posting here again, but treating us to a 'new song' as well. Very Nice! I assume you recorded your rendition of White Flag on the Roland VA7, right?

For those newer (but probably older) members here, Sander lives in the Netherlands & one of our senior (albeit possibly youngest (in age) member's here, joining our group (1/2001) only a year after myself. Welcome back Sander.

Scott


Btw, you still into raising tropical fish?

Great Job...I really enjoyed it!
The VA7 really shines through......

Thanx For Sharing

Thanks for all your kind replies...

This forum is really an inspiration for me to get me playing.

Eric: Someone singing along sounds great, can you record that?

Don: More is coming now.. I guess..!

Andrea: You're right! The original song indeeds end a LITTLE more gradual.. But I'm glad with it.. In my opinion the song requires a silence after it has been played.. That's because why I let it end this way..

Scott: Thank you for re-introducing me. This will surely make me stay this time. I've had my reasons to 'quit' posting on this board for some time, but I think I will stay now. The fish have been burried and eaten by the ground-monsters I think by now.. So no more tropical-fish-raising..!

Donny: I can't agree more with you; the VA-7 shines really through.. I must confess that the sound demo's of the Tyros also interest me, but I think the next one will still be the G70

So far the song has been downloaded 68 times already..!

Sander, great Job!!!

I love the sound of that keyboard. Real nice.

What did you use to record it?

Al

I loved your song , Sander .
Tks for sharing and Brasilian regards.

69 times! Great job Sander!!

I agree that the VA-7's Acoustic Grand Piano sounds very good. There is a mellowness to it which is appealing, especially I would think for Jazz and Piano Lounge type music.

Thanks for sharing your song with us and welcome back to the ZONE!
