Bronski Beat - Smalltown Boy (1984) Instrumental Cover
video upload by KOSmusic
"This is my version of an unforgettable great classic from the mid 80s: Smalltown Boy by Bronski Beat (of 1984).
I've always loved how this song starts with those pads and the DX7's signature harp... it always gave me goosebumps!! Furthermore, Sommerville's voice is truly fantastic with his unmistakable timbre.
I recreated the track by making some changes to the sounds and in particular to the management of the instruments, creating more stereo effect. I used the CS1x for brass, strings and synthesized trumpet. For the harp, I used the VST Dexed and the VST Jupiter-8 for the bass.
For the graphics of the video, I was inspired by the artwork of their first album 'The Age Of Consent'.
I hope you like the work I did on this track :)"
