I am posting this because I wanted to learn this song (Bana Sec-Ado) from keyboard players from Congo and other related countries, but strangely every of them misinterpreted the famous keyboard theme. So in the end I had to figure it out myself. Fortunately, with AI around, I could extract the keyboard from this song. Having the keyboard only, one can load it into a spectral editor (like Spectralayers Pro) and the secret will reveal.

I decided to share these here if anyone would be interested and willing to learn it. Fortunately a quite clear recording survived on tapes, so it was an easy job for the AI. Here is the (1) version without the keyboard and (2) with the keyboard only. They are in sync, so if you load them in the spectral editor as layers, you can switch either on or off and analyze the song.

Here is a screenshot of the famous theme from the spectral editor, you can observe key by key what the musician was playing (the green patches):






And here is the song itself:
