Lexicon PCM70 | Best bang for the buck reverb you could get in the 80s
video upload by Espen Kraft
"The Lexicon PCM70 was released in 1985. The same year as the more expensive 224X. The PCM70 was a budget alternative for expensive sounding lush reverbs and effects, even if it did cost over $2000 in the 80s. It also had MIDI and they made it respond to CC messages so you could control it in real time. This was very impressive. What set a good expensive reverb apart from more cheap ones was how the expensive reverbs effortlessly wrapped around the sound source in a majestic and expansive way, where the cheap ones wrapped itself around the source as wet snow or stink on stink.
Today, there are plugins that will destroy the PCM70 in many ways, but sometimes the oldies are goldies for a reason.
A big thanks to Anders Jensen for letting me have one of his PCM70s for this video. I've sold all my Lexicons now as I use Valhalla VintageVerb for easier and faster access to the Lexicon reverb sound in the DAW.

How to make 80s thriller/slasher/giallo music | Tutorial and breakdown
video upload by Espen Kraft
"How to make a thriller/slasher track with both old and new synths, samplers and drum machines. Put together and mixed as it would have sounded coming out an 80s movie.
I've always been a huge fan of the "giallo" thriller/slasher movie subgenre championed by Italian directors like Dario Argento, Mario Bava, Sergie Martino and more.
These movies often had absolutely mind-blowing violence topped with fantastic music.
One of these composers, Claudio Simonetti did many awesome tracks for Dario Argento, and among them the themes from 'Tenebre' (Tenebrae) a thriller in the giallo style, from 1982.
Another composer I draw a lot from is Fabio Frizzi. His work with Lucio Fulci has always been a great source of inspiration to me.
Midnight Drive 5 is my go at making a similar styled track. I've gone overboard with the intro which is supposed to be from a film, but these are all sound effects I've put together for this.
Find the track here:
00:00 Intro
01:25 Bass (Prophet VS)
03:00 Strings (Juno-106)
05:24 Synthbrass in the intro of the song (Prophet X)
07:16 Main Synth Theme
08:26 Counterpoint to the synth theme
09:23 Intro synth part to signal violence
10:22 Putting it all together and adding on
15:13 Making it sound like movie violence (sound effects)
18:12 The importance of reverb or NOT reverb
21:14 Drums
22:40 Bass
23:00 Strings
24:14 Vocal effects (chopped up)
26:07 Vocal choir
27:37 Counterpoint brass (Fabio Frizzi tribute)
28:37 Ending
29:59 Closing thoughs"

BOARDS OF CANADA - Beware the Friendly Stranger (Prophet REV2 Cover)
video upload by nicola neeco
"I love BOC’s short tracks & interludes: they’re little gems, always full of details just like the complete tracks.
I made this cover slower than the original and without the crackling background noise so you can fully appreciate this beautiful melody.
This track is also featured in Salad Fingers, the British animated web series created by @davidfirth in 2004 (a series with a very good foley and sound design, in my opinion)
(I made this patch from scratch)
gear used:
Sequential Prophet REV2 (8 voices)

Beware the Friendly Stranger, from Geogaddi (Warp Records, 2002)"

Sequential Prophet 5 Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer Signed by John Carpenter?
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this listing, also on Reverb
"The triumphant return of Sequential Circuit's Prophet 10, signed by the Horror Master himself, Mr. John Carpenter.
[The Story] I purchased this synthsizer direct from Sequential in 2020, shorly after it's initial release and have owned it ever since. Being a massive John Carpenter fan, and noting he created a lot of his famous score work on the original Prophet 5, I sought out to have him personally sign this keyboard. This autograph was aquired on August 12th, 2022 at the Monroeville Convention Center's Steel City Con via a brief VIP meet and greet with Mr. Carpenter. It was autographed along with one other item I brought along, a model of the Christine movie car.
[The Details] I am the original owner of this synthesizer and it has never left my climate controlled studio. I would rate this unit in mint condition. No visible blemishes, scuffs, dents or scratches. Functions as expected. Please see photos.
Unit comes with power supply, framed comemorative poster, and full sized soft road case. No original manual or box included.
Unfortunately, I am unable to provide any sort of certificate of authenticity verifying the signature on this item."

10 Minutes of Sleep Music with Rev2 and Hologram Microcosm | Ambient Music
video upload by Le Code
"The Prophet Rev2 is an incredible synth when it comes to putting you to sleep. The Rev2's subtle notes are passed through Hologram's Microcosm pedal, then processed by Strymon's Big Sky.
Enjoy 10 minutes of pure relaxation without ads, gentle music to soothe, sleep, rest, let go and enjoy the moment."
