One of my favorite tracks from the early 80s.
Africa by TOTO from the album Toto IV (1982)
Written by David Paich and Jeff Porcaro


Featured the YAMAHA DX7 and the Oberheim OB-Xa
In the original Yamaha GS1 and CS80

This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks.
My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers.
Check out the original songs with the original artists here on YouTube.
Thank you.

"I picked up this beauty a couple years ago thinking I'd be the next Industrial Noise Super Star, but turns out Blush Response has the job covered. I installed antelope's 30 voice upgrade module and also replaced the old LED with another I got from the Isle of Mann on eBay that looks wonderful! (It's not OLED, but something else). Sounds great, knobs are faded, but everything seems to be working great. A fabric dust cover has been on it since owning and. There is a third party power supply included that wouldn't be my first choice, but it works just fine. It's a 30 year old synth and has some road scars, and one of the rack ears is a bit bent. The Nextel paint will still abrade your skin if you get too drunk and fall face first onto it. You want minty? This ain't it."
