Some useful gumpf; click on SHOW MORE (just below).
‘A Curious Feeling’ is my favourite Tony Banks album (although I’m really starting to get into his orchestral albums, particularly ‘5’) and this is my favourite track on that album.
Plus, as my last Genesis track was ‘Undertow’… :)
It's scored, surprise surprise, using Sibelius 7.5
The piano part was created in Presonus Studio One using Modartt’s Pianoteq 6 CP-80 Electric Grand piano and processed thru TAL’s TAL-Chorus-LX chorus and FabFilter’s Pro Q2 EQ to tame the piano’s upper ’tizz’, remove the slight lower-mid ‘honkiness’ and boost the bass a bit.
Performance notes in the PDF.
Have fun! :)
Fantastic transcription ! I have dreamed for that for several decades. Thank you. For me too, "A curious feeling" is my favorite Tony Banks album. Nevertheless in "Still" album there is a song that I like very much : "Still it take me by surprise" with a wonderfull piano solo part. If you like it too, maybe you will transcribe it one day?
You mean the fast right-hand, left-hand, right-hand, left-hand etc. bit?
Yeah, I'd forgotten about that track. It's far and away my favourite track on that album - not a big fan of most of the rest of it I'm afraid :(
The whole piece sounds like it'd be fun to play on the piano (never actually tried to though), so I'll add it to my ever-growing list lol! :)
@@ElektrikHob Exactly. I transcribed it myself on cubase long time ago (with an Atari computer !) but I lost it.
By the way, have you included "Me and Sarah Jane" in your list ? Don't you like the dissonant chords of this song ?
Bonne soirée.
@@ECLECTRIX "Me and Sarah Jane" is on the list though a fair way down...
It's one of my favourite songs from their 80's catalogue, probably cos it hearkens back to the days of "...Vine" & "...Rope".
And of course it still has Tony's "you can never have too many chords" approach to writing! :)
If he ever does an autobiography it will HAVE to be called "A Chord Too Far"! lol :)
Edit: Just found out he actually brought out a compilation set of CDs with that very name!!
Guess I probably saw it sometime in the past and it must've lodged itself into my subconsciousness or something... lol :)
@@ElektrikHob I thought that it was just humor !
Is it possible to know what will be your next transcription? Or still it takes me by surprise ? lol
@@ECLECTRIX Not sure yet but it will definitely be a 70's Genesis track :)
So much “Burning Rope” on here. First time I’ve heard this song since one playing of Curious album back in the 80s
Lovely sound. One of Tony's most obscure work, totally love it!!! I'll never stop saying it, the man is a GENIUS.
The originally planned prelude to from the undertow - Thank you!
My favourite solo track by Tony Banks. Thanks for a wonderful transcription.
magic musica
omg yes
I must try this on my CP-70 sim immediately
*GASP*
This is fantastic! Thanks so much for another fine transcription.
I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR THIS FOR YEARS just thank you so much I love that song and it's quite complexe chords and it's really hard to find a sheet music for that thank you!!
YAAAASSS!!!! Thank you!! Great work. You were right when you said I would be happy with the next one. I think I might start working on this one right away. My piano has a physical-modeled CP-80 in it too, which is awesome. I will try and get some of the CS-80 bits in there too eventually. Fun!
These are wonderful - Thank you.
Wonderful
Thank you
hermoso!!!! Gracias!!!
Bravo!
This is excellent!!! Great version & accurate!!! I'd love to see "The Border" written out. That's a tough one to try to learn by ear!! This is amazing though! Bravo to you!!!
The intro to The Border was sequenced, it is quite difficult to nail all the notes in it. :)
@@krissyrose14 Thank you. I figured as much. As much as I've tried it's too difficult to make out all the notes. The Border has to be among Tony's best pieces. You can hear the great interweaving throughout the piece in and around the melody/theme! A masterpiece at that!!!
that dark and like really powerful intro is such an amazing tony banks composition, does anyone know in what key or mode that is it is so hauting !!
Excellent transcription!! Would be interesting to see "The Border" written out. Very nice, thanks for sharing!!
I agree "The border" is among his best eighties composition that have a difficult motion to discover, of course a typical structure with Chords on his own.
@@Musiquesaecouter There is a way to play it if slowed down from the sequencing. I've seen what Rachel Flowers has done with the end of Keith Emerson's 3rd Impression. That part was sequenced as well. Kudos to Tony & Keith!!
Soundtrack for a blizzard video.
thxs again Elektrik Hob..as usual impeccable. The only thing i would suggest is that you take credit on your PDF's your name is never mentioned.....God save the queen from your Ottawa fan
wowed again!
it sounds like that Tony Banks made up this rift on the spot by experimenting with different chords in the same key!
And why not . . . 😉
This is going to to stretch my pandies to the limit Mr Hob! Ha ha. Love it though
Yn wir! :)
Wonerfully trancription!! Can you transcribe The Lie ?
@ElektrikHob Wonderful transcription! Are there any possibilities to write down the transcriptions for Banks’ tracks like “The Lie”, “After the Lie” or “Forever Morning”?
Not in the very near future, but I may well do some more transcriptions from 'A Curious Feeling' at a later date...
I didn t know this song. Is beautifull! I was searching for the word Undertow ( lm latin, not English) It apparently means "hangover" but l m not sure if Undertow of " Then there were three", means that or it refears to the stream of a river as is mention in " Riding the scree" ( when Rael dives into river to save John) or its meaning is something else
as in 'la resaca'...? An unfortunate translation as undertow in English has nothing to do with a hangover!! :)
It's a term (for example; 'In the Rapids' on 'The Lamb') used to describe a dangerous current of water that flows faster, and underneath, the main current.
It can also be used in an emotional sense, to mean something that is deeper and darker that lies beneath the surface, which could be why it was used as that song title on '... Three'. 'From the Undertow' has, in bars 22-25 & 28-32, the same sort of melodic and rhythmic lines as the choruses of 'Undertow', which I would imagine is where it gets it's name from.
@@ElektrikHob l just uploaded a Cover of Genesis and l leave a special " thanks" to you at the end in the credits because of your transcripción that helped me indeed to finish it. The Genesis musik is helping me in this " quarentene" to have an escape from reality. It is good for my health. I send you the link if you have time to see it. Im percutionist and play a little keyboard. For that reason l used Sibelius 6 for helping me in Tony s solos guitar and bass. I ended the song ( cinema show) as in Seconds Out.

@@ElektrikHob If you listen excuse my inexperence in editing. First time using Filmora 9.
I will be happy if in a futuro perhaps you will be able to transcribe some of my favourites Genesis song ( for playing) like " Down and Out" from THREE " Wot Gorila" WIND. " Los Endos"
Like you l do this just because l like Genesis music and make me to be elevete spiritual myself. I also like classical music.
@@Mahler1817 Thank you for the credit; I'm assuming that's my score in front of you when we see you playing the keyboard :)
Glad you're finding a way to get thru this enforced lockdown that many of us now find ourselves in (I'm in the UK).
I will be doing more videos soon.
@@ElektrikHob Yes, its your score 👍 awesome and complete. I will do one perform more and then l think l will take a little rest for a couple o months because its too much work. I imagine for you it is a lot of time to dedicate for transcriptions. As l see Genesis have complicate harmonies and even the melody sometimes is difficult to capture ( also the metric) But thats because l m not total skillful for that. I do my best but many times l end kicking boxes or chairs when the inspiración doesnt arrive. I think l m old already. If only tecnology and Internet would have arrived when l was younger. Thanks for all!!
PS: l hope Genesis will confirm the perform in England that have announced at the beggining of the year when Covid 19 was not already a dangerous enemy
