For Julia Jacklin, a crappy old Casio keyboard changed everything

  Not sure why this is really HN worthy. "Musician buys keyboard"

    I liked it. It's not a deep article, but the idea of trying out something new is a creative strategy that is applicable to hacking as well as music (not that music is or should be off-limits to HN).

    Yeah, it's pretty poor. Here's her song featuring the Casio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D6buHQYhUI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D6buHQYhUI I guess it could be a Casio VL-1, run through some filtering.

      I came here for information from this comment - thanks. I guess judgemental tone will earn you some downvotes.

      What is this accent she has in the song?

        Australian

          That is different from any Aussie accent I've heard. I do hear this specific accent (affectation?) in a lot of music recently, and was hoping to find a name for it.

  I wonder if it's the Casio VL-1 as used by Trio for "Da Da Da"? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Da_Da_Da https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Da_Da_Da Seen here: https://youtu.be/xqTBlft8gQA?t=82 https://youtu.be/xqTBlft8gQA?t=82

    At the time, I remember I got annoyed with disbelief that this song was even made, let alone played everywhere.

  Her song “Body” from an earlier album is fantastic.
