CSS - Alcohol

YouTube via subpoprecords. New vids below. I almost didn't put this up for the lack of identifiable synth content, but then I realized the animation falls under the same category as the synth minatures! So here it is. "Fairlight and ARP Odyssey meets Yamaha CS60, meets KORG MS2000 and an Akai thown in for fun." Definitely a fun song. I'm guessing they actually use little Casio home synths as seen in the video below. If you know what they use feel free to comment. Video description: "Brazil's wonderful party dance explosion CSS have a new video for the song Alcohol off of their debut album Cansei De Ser Sexy. The video was directed by contsest winner/awesome director Jared Eberhardt. Watch some bunnies get drunk ." And for APPLE fans, the tune from the Apple Touch commercial:   CANSEI DE SER SEXY Music is My Hot Hot Sex

  1. Casio looks to be the M-10, the first portable, battery-powered, mini-key Casio (I think...ask Robin Whittle - he designed mods for and actually modded hundreds of them).

    Super simple, has 4 sounds, no accomp, but all materials and construction are very high quality.

    Has very square black keys, so much so that it's hard to fit adult fingers in the spaces between them.

    I wonder if this is a knowing choice, given the intentional lofi style of the video, or did they just find one in their grandmother's closet?

  2. I don't think it's a rare Casio, you can find synths like this everywhere here in Brazil on street fairs and such, and it would be easy to mistake them from vintage models.

    He (the guy) probably used his computer soundcard to produce it tough, which is kinda cool... I don't know him, but we share some common friends from São Paulo.

    And the guitar player's (Ana's) half-brother is a good friend of mine :)
