Those old synths with patch leads everywhare are great aren't they? At the risk of being called a Luddite I have to say I prefer the old analogue sound. My old favourite Todd Rundgren produced his last album entirely on an Apple laptop an it sounds horrible.
Do you think it was it like those old fashioned Christmas tree light sets when it didn't work in that you had to go through every connection in turn to find the one that had 'blown'?
Davy, the processors weren't wired in series and so weren't like the old yule strands. The challenge was in (1) being able to afford the processors in the first place and (2) figuring out how to set and combine them to make listenable sound. Swearing was definitely involved regardless of the language.
Simon, so true. Maybe that is the point. Moog changed the world in 1980 BC with the synthesizer (BC = before computers). The music of the 80's happened as a result of the synth and the subsequent backlash against it.
All tracks are for sampling purposes only and are available for a limited amount of time. If you like the music, please support the artist by purchasing their music. If you are representing an artist and want a track removed, contact me and it will be done.

Crikey, that room is his synth. You can fit that much power into your average laptop and have about thirty of them playing at the same time now.

Bet that occasioned some Italian swearing.
Nice track!
