Dadrian Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) This Jan Hammer song was not in Miami Vice, but it easily could have been--maybe even should have been: The Fairlight Series III piano, the pulsing bass, the Rockman distortion rhythm guitar, analog/FM pads, and industrial drum machine sounds are a great blend of Season 2 and 3 textures in this flawless composition/recording.

It veers off towards "Chariots of Fire" in places, but not in a bad way... And now for something completely different... One of Boney M's last songs before they disbanded. Actually a Tony Esposito cover. I suspect some Fairlight stuff going on on that track as well... especiall in the section from 3:35 mins... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I hear some Fairlight, too, along with some DX7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daytona74 Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 Possibly Vince Clarke's most awesome creation outside of Depeche Mode and Erasure I actually had to google that synthesizer, never heard of a "Sequential Circuits Pro One" before. Was that a big name in 80s synths? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daytona74 Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 (edited) Seems like a pretty awesome piece of kit, going by what you see on Youtube... Some more 80s greatess: Alphaville were the hottest ticket in German synth pop between 1984 and 1986. The violins on that track are just divine if you ask me. Alphaville was one of the first bands that I was ever a fan of... along with Depeche Mode. I was collecting both Alphaville and Depeche Mode singles by age ten...

Daytona74 Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 If you go to an Alice Cooper concert, there is a high probability that you will count it as your greatest concert ever. I saw him live in 1998. Nothing else comes close to it. I saw bands like Van Halen, Bon Jovi and Red Hot Chili Peppers in their prime, back in the day. None of their shows were as cool as what Alice Cooper does on stage. This is one of my all time favorite songs by him. I just love his offbeat, mentally unstable persona.

Marc Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 On the subject of synths. This guy has an interesting YouTube channel with a couple of uploads. Impressive camera work and studio space even if the wall is just decoration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 I don' think I've ever posted this before. It was edited together in 1983 and I remember finding it in the early days of YouTube in 2008. Two classic songs, Pete Shelly and Simple Minds cut to some awesome helicopter chases.
