Private Lessons

So I’ve modified my usual synth patch to not reset the attack envelope on keychances and added a little bit of portamento to give a rather nice sliding effect. Here’s a little tune to demonstrate what I’m talking about. The chord progression is based on a song called Private Lessons by Kevin O’Neill, Peter Ward and the Late Great Mark Donaldson.

As it’s Sunday afternoon and I’ve not much else to do, I’ve recorded the whole song. In memory of Mark Donaldson.
