The Sound(s) of Vangelis

"The sound of the first works in Nemo Studio shaped mainly analog synthesizers and keyboards, initially Oberheim 4-Voice, ARP Pro Soloist, Elka Rhapsody 610, Farfisa Synthorchestra, Minimoog, Minikorg 700, Korg Polyphonic Ensemble, Roland SH-3A and the Roland system 100, 1977 and then more and more of the Yamaha CS-80, the Vangelis was now his main instrument. Vangelis was among the first CS-80 users in general, and his first instrument was the legend, even the adventurous way to take the train from across Japan by Russia."
