Here’s a long overdue something, a tribute to a silly yet truly awesome musical instrument. My first instrument ever was a funky 128-voice Casio, my fifth birthday present. The keyboard was the last of its kind in the store, the display version — so there was no manual or box for me to learn from.

At my art camp job, there are some sweet aged Casio keyboards for people to play. They are even older than mine: the type with only 16 real voices and the option to play two voices in unison. This is an expanded version of a very random jam on Wednesday.

Sequenced using Rosegarden4 with fluidsynth and Xsynth as DSSI plugins. All soundfonts used are free. Enjoy!
