DX5 Playing RAF "Self Control" (Laura Branigan vers).

video upload by DX5

"An excellent Italo dance anthem, composed by Raffaele Riefoli (RAF), Giancarlo Bigazzi and Steve Piccolo, covered here with the arrangements featured on Laura Branigan's version (which includes a lot of DX7 on it). The electric guitar doesn't fit much as on the original song; sounds a bit dimmed on the intro. I should have post produced it a bit more, but just did this on a hurry :)

Gear used:
Roland JP8000 (Slow attack filtered intro chords).
Kurzweil PC1x (Sampled guitar, fill chords, fast attack distorted sound)
Roland JX8P (filtered pad).
Emu Emax 1 (Programmed bell type sound, directly sampled from my DX7, including a second layer for the extra verse).

Backtrack previously recorded, track by track, on Pro Tools. Including Roland TR808 (intro drums with some random miliseconds delay) and a Yamaha DX7 for the bassline.
Peformed here by DX5 Jose Maria Bara."

Demo in the listing previously posted here.

"The brainchild of Ray Kurzweil with consultation from Bob Moog, Stevie Wonder, and Alan R. Pearlman, the K250 is repleet with sequencers, oscilators, and incredible samples of acoustic instruments highlighted by the majestic Grand Piano 1. This instrument was worlds ahead of its time, and stands tall today featuring sampling that is unmatched in today’s keyboard jungle. Of course it was priced at over 20K, rendering it unattainable for 99% of keyboardists at the time."

DX5 playing Alphaville "Forever Young" cover.

video upload by DX5

"'Forever Young' Instrumental cover. I tweaked the JX-8P filter live for the song intro which sounded quite accurate (I guess it was originally done on a Jupiter 8 but the JX-8P did the job well).
The vocoder style effect in the intro was my own voice thru the Access Virus TI snow vocoder, sampled into the Emax (doesn't sound much as the original though :).

Gear used (L to R):
Roland JP8000,
Kurzweil PC1x,
Roland JX-8P,
Emu Emax.

Backtrack recorded on its entirely, track by track, by me using Pro Tools. No original audio was involved.

Original song composed by Marian Gold, Bernard Lloyd, Frank Mertens.

Performed here by DX5 Jose Maria Bara"
