Video uploaded when i was 17, found it when i was 19 when i was a talkbox fanboy and now i'm 30 over being a talkbox fanboy but find myself coming back to listen to this every now and again. This track is such a great de-stressor

I hope you play them endlessly. open.spotify.com/album/7KACrZrFqlrn8E3n8lAlbF Also please feel free to download and own on Apple Music: music.apple.com/us/album/music-is-your-first-language/1473269342?ign-mpt=uo%3D4 I am working intensely on an entire new album, and a bunch of new stuff for youtube. Most of all I look forward to more live videos of keyboard and drums. Thank you for your support; I work really hard for it. Take care. -Tristan

Might I add that there is a level greatness of music, and that you are above that level. I wish to be as good as you are one day, though I'm sure that your talents grow more and more with every song. I don't know how to play piano, but I am going to learn soon in addition to trumpet and french horn. I was going to wait to learn piano a little longer, but seeing this made me want to learn a lot sooner. Keep up the good work.

Hey, kaufmann. Thanks so much for the kind words, and thank you to all below. Yes, my friend i arranged the Bacharache song, composed the intro and played all the parts myself. Drums are the exception; i programmed those. I'm a drummer but sometimes choose to program rather than play a part. I spend a lot of time putting the groove together. I'm looking forward though, to when i am set up to just play my parts. Thanks again.

@danceryyxc Thank you! Sure, I used a Korg Triton LE for the talkbox part, with a Rocktron Banshee talkbox. For the synth solo in the beginning and in the end I quickly turned on and off a Roland SH-32 virtual analog synth. I had the Korg patch tweaked to give a lot more filter resonance during the bridge, and set so I could switch it. That's why it's more skwawky there. The background track I arranged and played by hand. Thank you for your kind words. ; ) -T
