"vintage synth demo by RetroSound
Roland Jupiter-4 Analog Synthesizer (1978);
For me the Jupiter synth with the most interesting sound. Four voices. These are nearly always „out of tune , them are never correct. But makes for one possible so outstanding musical sound."

what key is this in?
ReplyDeletethank heavens he's wearing a wedding ring -- at least he's got a fallback if his music career fails.
ReplyDeleteFunny. I play like that quite a bit myself. The Jupiter-4 does sound massive. The beginning reminded me of early Human League.
ReplyDeleteSomething about playing the black keys only...
ReplyDeleteblack keys only is the key of "B" right?
ReplyDeleteI love the JP-4 as well.
ReplyDeleteI'm all for playing just black notes, but you can still write catchy and interesting things using a pentatonic scale, in fact it's easier.
