Prog Rock Keyboardist, Instrumental Rock, Fusion Jazz
This is Bill Rebsamen, keyboardist and songwriter for the Christian prog rock band Young Earth. www.youngearth.net This Soundclick site will host songs mostly from my pre-Young Earth songwriting and from new music solo ventures whenever they arise. I'm always writing original music and I love for anyone to listen and provide feedback. Need a keyboard part? I'd love to collaborate with other prog bands who might need keyboard parts as my schedule allows. To listen to some synth lead samples check out a few of my "Instant Noodles". These are music clips that focus directly on the synth solo. Look for the pic of the keyboard cooking instant noodles! :-) When I say I love progressive rock, I mean as a passion since childhood! When I was 7, the Welk family from England moved into our neighborhood in Fort Smith, Arkansas. The oldest boy, Robert, quickly introduced me to Rick Wakeman's album "Journey to the Center of the Earth" and then patiently taught me how to say the word "synthesizer" (a mouthful for any 7 year old!). As any avid prog rock fan knows, prog music speaks to my heart and deeply affects me as a musician. This is music you can feel!

Story behind the song
Our band was allowed to practice after hours at a local music store. I agreed to help out with keyboard questions and "after the sale" tips and pointers. They carried Korg keyboards so I wrote this demo song for the Korg X3 synth workstation. The only "cheat" I used was my Roland Ax1 controller to do the sax trills using the X3 sax patch (making use of the Ax1's ribbon controler to get a hammer-on effect). If you are struggling trying to emulate a real sax using a keyboard sample I highly recommend using a ribbon controller for life-like trills! And oh yeah... recorded straight to mini-disc from the X3!
