13-The DSI/Oberheim OB-6: Part 13- the Theme... a tribute to Prince


Published on May 2, 2016 AutomaticGainsay

"I wanted to create a theme for the OB-6 series that referenced some famous usage of Oberheim synths. Of course, I immediately thought of Jump... and decided against it. I couldn't decide. I pieced together a beat from loops and then realized that it sounded vaguely Prince-esque. Prince is one of my favorite musicians of all time, and then... like an idiot... I remembered that HE was a huge Oberheim fan in the early 80s. And that's how this theme was born. It's sad that a celebration of Prince has recently become a tribute.

This is dedicated to the memory of Prince.

Don't worry... this isn't the last OB-6 video... there are many more on the way!"
