Casio CSM-1 audio demos
Let’s listen to the well-programmed DEMO SONG – “Night Birds”, by the British group Shakatak (thank you Vincent de Mulder for the tip 
) – showcasing the best sounds of this module. Melodically, I really like this song, especially from 1:06 to 1:20 and similar, where the classic “Autumn Leaves” harmonic progression is employed to great effect. The piano is realistic enough – for a module of this era. And the crowd really liked the performers!
