I LOVED this tune as a kid! I played this demo on repeat and forgot all about learning to play the keyboard, lol And for anyone else wondering, I just learned that this song is Night Birds by Shakatak
I have used this keyboard for several moments in my younger years, and this song always brings back good memories. For the last year or so I have been using it nearly every day, because music class in school awakened something in me. I'm just a teenager by the way, and my father passed the keyboard down to me.
In the early 90's, My brother would pretend playing this like a madman, with gormless facial expressions and total idiocy. He'd freeze his whole body still during pauses in the tune . A real Victor Borge cross Jim Carrey style act. Good memories.
Omigoah I used to dance around with my throw blankets like a flamenco mantón when I was a little boy! Ugh the fake horns at the end with the clav, then REMIX!
I remember a kid at school doing it in a talent show, myself, the AV and the Music teacher standing beside eachother scratching our heads wondering why everyone was going so crazy 😂 kid got away with it too, we just let him have his 15mins of fame
@DaxtonAnderson 6th grade talent show for me. I played "I Ain't Mad At Cha" by Tupac then "accidentally" hit the demo button. Class broke out into a dance party.
My dad bought me this keyboard in the '80s so I couldn't shirk my piano practice when I was staying with him every other weekend. I remember this song fondly. I still didn't practice all that much, but I loved listening to the demo. My dad passed away in 2018, but this is a souvenir I'll keep.
I was just at my piano trying to figure this out by ear because this was something I haven't heard since I was like 5 and I was feeling extra nostalgic. I got sad because I realized that I was probably never going to hear it again since I remembered it was on a keyboard from the 70s or 80s that my dad probably threw out. I thought there was a 0% chance i'd find this. Thank you!!!
I'm so glad to find this! The memories I have. My grandmother had this exact keyboard and we would play tunes together on it. She's been gone for 12 years as if the first of this month. Thank you!!❤❤😭😭
My youth.... I remember getting this as a Christmas gift in 93. I was 14 years old. Oh man I don't know why this song was on my head, but crazy I found it my first search :-) So saving this.
i still have this keyboard. The part when the sound bank kicks in at 1:10 it's fantastic. I still made mixes of instruments with the keyboard..... it's awesome!
Love it, my dad bought me this keyboard when I was a little girl, I was absolutely addicted to this demo song, ah those were the days I could goof around...life was so simple and fun!!!
Got one of these for Christmas 1990, had two black keys break... played it till I gave it to a friend in 2000. Thinking I gotta get me one of these again-or, better, its big brother, the CT-460...
Thank you, thank you so much for reminding me of this beautiful melody ! it means a lot to me and i was searching for it for nearly 30 years ! Thanks !!
One day I listened to this tune somewhere, I was looking where it was coiming from, until I went to the bathroom and found out it was coming from my neighbour's apartment. The song gave me a weird feeling, like some sort of spirituality mixed with nostalgia, but I didn't get to know the name. I heard it again for some weeks after and I was just as curious, but not really minding it. But then, I came to listen to this woman singing the same melody in a japanese future funk mix on youtube while I was studying, so I just had to stop what I was doing and find the sample. The original song was full of commentaries about the keyboard playing it, and so I solved the mistery. It feels great.
Casio #MT540 was my first musical instrument 30 yeas ago. Last week I have found it again. Thanks to my Grandparents and the Demo song (Shakatak - Night Birds) I became musican. I'm grateful for it!
OH WOW~!!!! HERE IT IS!! IM fucking 40 now, played in 1347738458 bands, toured the country, slayed faces, and groupie girls, had a kid (yes, a direct result), got married, then divorced, now Im all old as shit... and in 1 second Im teleported back to 7 years old in my room with my first instrument.... Damn... 😪🤗 That slap bass solo with the electro drums in the breakdown tho! So smooth...LOL

I didn't know the title of that song. In childhood, I LOVED THIS SONG! I played it repeatedly, and imagined that I can play piano in real life.
@@jerekiiski1602😂 wow me too
i would fake it on the blanked out keys!🎉 amazing to meet my tribe❤
oh my family got sooo sick of me playing this over and over pretending it was me doing it. thank you so much for this.
Welp, I'm tearing up and I'm not even sure why. I literally can't explain how this song makes me feel.

Oh man, haven't heard this since I was like 14. The way it opens with the traffic sounds -- so dope.
Straight nostalgia. I remember this song just being the coolest jam ever when I was younger.
I was cracking up hearing this in the Barbie movie 😭 so nostalgic
Me too!!!!!!!!

Love it, my dad bought me this keyboard when I was a little girl, I was absolutely addicted to this demo song, ah those were the days I could goof around...life was so simple and fun!!!
OH MY GOD MY CHILDHOOD!!!!!!!!
I still have this keyboard. Some of the keys broke off but it still works. I LOVE it.
Got one of these for Christmas 1990, had two black keys break... played it till I gave it to a friend in 2000. Thinking I gotta get me one of these again-or, better, its big brother, the CT-460...
B flat is broken but everything works just fine 😁
Minha infância traduzida em um som!
Throwback when i would play this demo and pretend that i was the one actually hitting the keys 🎹😅
This really brings back the memories.
I remember this one...makes me think of Sonic the Hedgehog, which of course was all the rage back then
So glad this lives on on the internet, I was OBSESSED with this as a toddler & there’s nothing else like it out there
OMG ITS SO BEAUTIFUL THE BEAT BRINGS MEMORIES FROM WHEN I WAS YOUNG
Oh god the memories

I'm not kidding this is my favorite song of all time
Seriously!
Wow i can't believe someone has this song. Bring back memories
Omg!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!! 😀😃🤗 I never thought I'd hear this again in my life!!!!
Back again to listen! 🎶 😁
Eu ouvindo esta música de demonstração do MT 540 me fez voltar no tempo a uns 30 anos atrás quando comecei aprender tocar teclado
The best PCM keyboard demo song, hands down.
Casio is the Way To Go
Thank you, thank you so much for reminding me of this beautiful melody ! it means a lot to me and i was searching for it for nearly 30 years ! Thanks !!
Thank you soooooo much!!!! I have been looking for this foreeeeeever!!!

CHILDHOOD! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!
Cool time machine
I had no idea how much this song slaps!
¡Muchísimas gracias! TT__TT
Heard part of this song in the new Barbie movie tonight. The wierd thing is Ken is playing pn a Yamaha keyboard when it plays.
This always reminded me of the beach-driving scene music in the arcade game Outrun :D
this is also on one of Casio's sound modules btw
memories good old times
Replay. Trop de souvenirs cette musique. Jla kiff
Legit the best song ever made.
No waaayyyy! After so many years 😭
OH WOW~!!!! HERE IT IS!! IM fucking 40 now, played in 1347738458 bands, toured the country, slayed faces, and groupie girls, had a kid (yes, a direct result), got married, then divorced, now Im all old as shit... and in 1 second Im teleported back to 7 years old in my room with my first instrument.... Damn... 😪🤗 That slap bass solo with the electro drums in the breakdown tho!
So smooth...LOL
Me 2
The chord progression of the demo song is actually pretty cool. This demo song could sound great as a latin-fusion tune.
It's a real song from 1982 - "Night Birds" by Shakatak.
@@TheBeatfox you are a gentleman and a scholar
or gentlewoman
It's been about 30 years since I have heard this
you are the MAAAN
super earthworm
We used to music torture the heck out my parents with this demo song.....great memories. ...Sorry Mom and Dad 😎
Lol me too
ahaha so true man.
Omg!!!! The memories 80"s
Wow I can’t believe I found this song
The scene in “Barbie” and my childhood brought me here. ❤
really cool!
They gotta play this at a circuit party or a music event. It’ll hit everyone just right.
mi infancia :')
Thanks for sharing 😁👍🏻
I haw this piano!
Memories...!
I pretended that I actually played this music. No one believed me ever though.
😂 sounds of the 80's all we need now is Billy Ocean 🌊 Caribbean Queen
Tuve éste órgano, me acuerdo de esa canción, una parte la pude sacar.
I pooped my pants when I heard this in Barbie
My dad just told me he still has this thing. It's almost as old as I am 😅
sounds like a sonic song =)
Or something straight out of Out-Run's soundtrack!
😢1980s those were the days
The memories man
This is my jam.
OMG I remember this!!!
Damn!!!!! Good old days 1995
“Super, earthworm”
Thank you Joel.
Me gustaría tener un teclado como este, es pequeño pero no suena mal para ser un teclado de los años 80, por eso me gusta
it's still a bop
Memories
The original song is called NIGHT BIRDS by SHAKATAK th-cam.com/video/PoVLt1Gsaew/w-d-xo.html
Good to know! Thanks
