Yamaha DX7 II-D (Solo mode, custom sound) and Roland JX-8P - sound test only
YouTube via SpacehotelMusic
"Just a sound test of the much maligned DX7 (II-D) in layered mode with a custom sound. FM can sound punchy and sometimes 'almost' analog in nature. Most people think of the DX as a preset machine (with the famous 80s sounds) but these days they are great machines for producing unique textures.
The JX-8P here is for contrast in the video. None of this is a musical statement (nor the music of Spacehotel), it's just a made up on the fly generic funk riff to show the sounds (with mistakes and stuff)... Hopefully will upload more in depth vids of all my synths in time, when I get chance.
Note: Sound quality is vastly compromised by the video compression, the artifacts on the low octaves of the DX7 sound are not present in real life - it also has more bass end. :)
The Top synth is a Roland JX-3P (1983)"
Spacehotel - Working on Album track with Roland JX-8P and Roland JX-3P
"Footage of me working on some ideas for a track on the upcoming SPACEHOTEL DEBUT ALBUM. Sounds quite basic here as it's obviously far from finished and is just in the 'writing' stages."
