BEST SYNTH PRESET EVER USED | ROLAND D-50 | "Soundtrack" Chord Progression | #1991 #Seal #Violet

video upload by Microflat

"Watch the central synth chord progression of Seal's 'Violet'. One of the most lush and beautiful songs ever produced, from his 1991 debut album "Seal". The song features the perfect use of the strangely complex and otherworldly eminent 'I-37 Soundtrack' preset of the Roland D-50. I added a) the 'I-47 Spacious Sweep' preset to enhance the flow of the song's key synthesizer intro elements as well as b) a bit of (my own) pitched vocal to emphasize the importance of the unique melody.
