Fancy Your Heart

Written in 1990 / Recorded in 1990 and 2012
This tune was written a bit hastily at the end of 1990. In those days, I was obsessed with exploring what’s available on my new digital synthesizer, especially in terms of trying out each built-in tones, and this tiny tune was written as a result of countless hours I spent on learning the new equipment. The basic idea for the initial demo recording was to write a typical stuff for a four-piece band and play it exclusively by the synthesizer. This initial attempt, needless to say, didn’t go quite well.

In the meantime, I thought the tune was handy for filling time for a forthcoming live show for a provisional band and I played it by a trio consists of a percussionist, a contrabass player and me on the electric piano.


When I discovered the master tape of the original demo, I could not resist re-recording the tune in a bit more proper way. The attached video above was the result, which also features intro from the original demo and outro from the said live version.
