Hey,

Anyone an idea?

thx!

Can't be sure but after listening to several of the presets I found they all seemed  likely to be composed by the same person, specifically to demonstrate the various capabilities of the Kawai instrument. They all sound very generic as well.

I think the thread title describes the music very well.

Dear oh dear, is that supposed to help sell Kawai keyboards? It sounds ghastly - doesn't even seem to be in tune, which is a pretty big fail for an electronic instrument.

As for the piece, it sounds like a noodling improvisation by some jobbing lobby pianist. (No disrespect to lobby pianists but they don't generally play in a style that expects to be preserved for posterity.)
Instrumentalists are all wannabe singers. Discuss.
