Hello SynthZoners.

Well, next Saturday is Halloween, so I thought I might subject you all to a little Halloween sonic torture (yeah, that means I'm gonna sing again). The first tune is a Buck Owens song called (It's A) Monster's Holiday. Everything was done on my PSR3000 except for three sound effects, and the quasi-maniacal laughter was done with the VH using a tweaked version of Speedy Mouse (and a lot of reverb). The song was also multi-tracked on my Ferd Flinstone era PC.

This next song you may have heard, but I thought I'd throw it in (up?) anyway. I did this one in 2007, again using the 3000 along with it's VH, and all of the sound effects were also done using the 3000. The Monster Mash

Happy Halloween,
Dan



P.S. There's nothing musically special about either of these tunes. I just thought that some may want to torment their kids, Grandkids or neighbours during Halloween.

Cute. Very cute. well played and well recorded. You know, listening to the first tune, I would say that with the excellent pitch, intonation, timing, inflections, and voice quality, you could do some seriously good vocals on a serious song (right song in the right genre' - probably country, but not necessarily). You should post more often. I think with the right material, you could put up some really good stuff.

Chas, you can hear lots of Dan's songs on the Yamaha PSR Tutorial site. And it is well worth it. He's great.
Dan, you make the Yammy vocalizer sound better than anyone else in the world. I wish it would sound like that "out of the box".

Two more excellent pieces. But, man, you have got to eat some Monster Mashed potatoes and put some weight on. You're not even SKIN and bones. Just bones.

Great Job, Dan

Thanks Don, I'm always impressed with the guys that clearly have 'the goods'. Genre' is unimportant, good is good and .......
