"State of the art" - on Elka X-30
Published on Mar 17, 2014 organfairy·414 videos
Interesting formant type sound at :59. Similar vibe to Gyote's Somebody That I Used to Know.
"'State of the Art' is a song by Australian singer-songwriter (I hate that expression - what's wrong with 'composer') Gotye. It is actually a homage to the Lowrey Cotillion D575 organ - though I don't really understand why they put a number after the name as I understand that this was the only Cotillion.
Anyway.
In the 1970's it was common that whenever there was a song on the charts then it was a matter of time before there was also an organ version of it. Therefore I have sort of completed the circle by making an organ version of a song about an organ. I don't have a Cotillion so I used my Elka X-30 which is from the same era and many of the presets sounds quite similar.
And if mr De Backer doesn't like my version he can consider it as revenge for 'Somebody that I used to know'!"
