Thank you for the kind words lindwood. I found your score very interesting, do you have the chance to get this kind of stuff with live musicans? Woulde be an amazing project. You don't get to hear a string section play that kind of stuff to often :-) RedLeo: nice song !

This is a song I been working on lately: http://www.hovistuten.no/Farvel.aspx About this song: "This song was first wrtiten as a last goodbye. The lyrics was added later. The page is at the moment unfortunately just in norwegian. The music in this band is based on originals and old traditional folk music, but in modern arrangements.

Hi, just got a myspace site up for my cover band "Soul Inspiration" A few weeks ago we took a night and recorded three songs to make a demo to get some gigs, you can take listen on the myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/soulinspirationmusic Nothing to fancy but it gives an impression on how we sound live :-) Yes, I know it is not perfect but.... anyway. Enjoy!

I been hanging around here for some time now, and since this is MY day (today it is 29 years since I was born!!! ) let me introduce myself: I live in the middle of Norway where I live with my girlfriend. (She is into music to so that makes it easier to have this interest I think... in fact she is the vocalist in my band .) My main education is in the computer science field (bad times these days...) But I also have education in music & teaching. At the moment I am working with sales of musical instruments in a local shop. Speaking of music I have played piano/ synthesizers for 17 years now. Musically I tend to like lots of different music, but my heart lies in pop music. To name a few of my favorite artists I would have to mention: Sting, Michael McDonald, Toto, George Duke, Quincy Joines, Seal, Stevie Wonder, Steely Dan, Jamiroquai, Mezzoforte, Bel Canto, Peter Gabriel, Brand new heavies,..... I play synthesizer in my own pop/fusion cover band. I play in a gospel choir. I also do a little playing on musical projects and other projects I been asked to join. Over the years I have also played in a Big Band. I am doing a big band project this autumn, looking forward to that In my home studio I try to do some writing and recording. (You can see a picture of my studio by following the link.) You can see some of my gear at the pictures, the Motif8 is beeing replaced by the Motif8ES in 3 weekes time On the instrument side I must say I just love synthesizers. And for some of my knowhow asout music & music technology I have to thank my complete 14 years colection of Keyboard magazine. Nice to have that by my side, and nowdays of curse this forum, nice freindly people here Thanks. Well that's a part of me !!!

David Paich & Steve Porcaro from TOTO was heavy into the DX-7 in the eighties. (They also played alot of session stuff.) So the Toto "IV" had lots of FM, probably the GS-1. And their later "Isolation" album & "Fahrenheit" album has DX-7 all over.....
