Throwing Fire

YouTube via ronaldjenkees | August 05, 2008

"Throwing Fire is on my 2nd CD, Disorganized Fun: https://www.ronaldjenkees.com/mp3-store/ SUPER FUN TIME WITH THIS JAM!!!! Thanks a lot for watching! Hope you liked it. Kindof a rough cut, but it's always fun. This video is dedicated to the band Papa Roach for letting me check out their studio and giving me a place to stay in LA. Those are some hard-working rockers and good guys. I got cold chills listening to the songs they're working on for their new album. I think it's coming out really soon. My friend Sam gave me the hat I'm wearing in this vid. It's made of 100% recycled material. Can't beat that. Here's their site: http://www.livity.org I'm using FL Studio software to make the beat in the background and a Korg Triton Le keyboard on top, Motif XS8 on bottom."

けいおん！[K-ON!] OP - {HD}

"Opening theme of the anime K-ON! HIGH DEFINITION"

Updates via the comments:

via Babaluma:
"this is a fantastic new anime in japan, it's not just the keyboards but all the instruments which are real. check the les paul, etc.

"keion" means "light music" in japanese, and most high schools have a keion club where the girls meet to play rock, pop and punk music. at my school they are quite a popular club, and in the future i am hoping to help some of the bands get some decent recordings."

via the world of next tuesday:
"Every band member in the anime just happens to have the same last name as a 1980s member of legendary technopop band P-MODEL. No real explanation, obviously someone's in-joke.

Over the years lots of old Korg, Roland System 700, Sequential, EMS, custom stuff, solar powered MS-20 and genuine female fans."

"I received several old issues of Cracked Magazine over the holidays and I couldn’t help noticing how one humor piece, predicting life in the 21st Century, was surprisingly accurate."

TB-303 Reference in Ghost in the Shell

via GlassX

"Here's a screenshot from an episode of Ghost in the Shell - Stand Alone Complex (the anime series, no the movie) with a nod to the legendary TB-303!!!

I find it really cool! There's probaby a synth fan like us on the series production ;D
More info."

Note: also see Iron Man. I created a comics label for these. Yes Ghost in the Shell is manga and anime, but I'm not going to make people click on different labels for these. If anyone remembers any prior posts I put up or other examples, feel free to comment below or send them in.

TR-808 Obliterated by Iron Man - Synth Fans at Marvel Comics

Well, sort of. Watch the video here. It comes in the second episode. They are short so if you have the time watch the first, then scroll down to "Iron Man's Adventure Continues." It's in that one. Direct link here for the archives.
