Members Malik 0 Posted December 23, 2005 Members Share Posted December 23, 2005 Any ideas? I was listening to his Acropolis album the other day while I was moofing the lady, and began to wonder what exactly he uses. The rear of the album says only, "Keyboards. " Hmm...sounds like a lot of reverb. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Members Cydonia 1 Posted December 23, 2005 Members Share Posted December 23, 2005 I don't think that Yanni is able to use any keyboard. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Members Artur Meinild 0 Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 Yanni may look like a joke and be full of himself (and I agree that pitchbending piano is lame), but that doesn't change that he's a good keyboard player and an even better composer. His songs are very well composed no matter if you like the genre or not, and I think he deserves some credit for that. Regarding gear, I only know he uses some Korg keyboards...

Members ShakaCthulu 0 Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 Probably everything. He makes music for rich yuppies with beach houses, he can certainly afford it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Members jchas 0 Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 For what it's worth - I would venture to say Yanni could out-play most if not all posters on this thread. I'm not a fan mind you. But when he played for the local rock group Chameleon in the late 70's he and his band were some of the elite players around. And though his current dreamcapes/textures/ style doesn't do much for me - it can get an entire arena of women to orgasm simultaneously - I wish I could do that...

Members dan88z 9 Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 Originally posted by Crawling Wind Some guys will do anything to prolong the moof. Sorta like thinking about baseball! "Hmmm, I wonder what keyboards Yanni is using these days" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Members CO622 0 Posted December 24, 2005 Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 I saw his show a couple years ago in Nashville I counted about 10 Tritons between him and 2 other keyboard players. 1 keyboard I did not know what it was. Joke or not we enjoyed the show. Plenty of eye candy in the audience. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, but more importantly, could he out-moof us? We may never know for sure......... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

By the way Billy - the CD's in the mail - should be there soon. Merry Christmas, jchas Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had heard of the Chameleon connection, too. I lived and played the circuit in Minneapolis at the time. My memory was that the keyboard player sat and had dark hair. Same group?

Members Malik 0 Posted December 24, 2005 Author Members Share Posted December 24, 2005 The band that inspired Herbie Hancock? ;> Yup...I got the Yawner's CD back in high school 8 years ago. I went to an all-boy's school and didn't know much...hell, I thought Ace of Base was industrial because of the video for that "love so true" song. Still, I knew enough to keep the Greek surprise on the quiet track around my much-hipper girlfriend. The music is definitely for rich yuppies, and that tiny piece of a rich yuppy in me appreciates it only during the most blue collar of times- like moofing the gf after work. I have kept hair somewhat akin to the Yaya's...only mine is really black. The ladies definitely prefer it longer...makes 'em jealous. I tell them I don't use any "product." That gets'em in the moofer. Yanni can have his wind-blown moonlit nights...poser. The Greeks perfected it, but the Indians- we invented it. -M:D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
