Stranger Things 'Kids' Synth Cover using Prophet-6 and T-16 (based on ARP 2600)

video upload by Nitecaller.

"#StrangerThings has given me so much life and inspiration over the last decade, but maybe more importantly it gave us one of greatest soundtracks ever, composed by Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein.

I’ve been learning the parts and playing this theme for years now and it never gets old. Feels good to finally put together a proper cover of it. Using only two synths; the Prophet-6 (which the composers use heavily) and the T-16; my custom-built synth also inspired by the gear of the composers (ARP 2600). [see the Nitecaller label for more]

Prophet-6: Lead parts and SFX
T-16: Bass and outro arpeggio

Ambient Things | OP-XY Stranger Things theme Cover

video upload by Lo-fi Pask

"An ambient reinterpretation of the iconic Stranger Things theme, created entirely on the Teenage Engineering OP-XY.

To celebrate the release of Stranger Things 5, I started working on a traditional cover using the OP-XY and the fantastic Danger Strings sound pack. But while searching through my library, I stumbled upon a pad that inspired a completely different direction.

From that sound came the sketch of an atmospheric, dreamy ambient track. Almost as a joke, I layered the classic Stranger Things arpeggio on top, and surprisingly, it just worked. That accidental blend gave life to this ambient-style Stranger Things cover, something a bit different from the usual reinterpretations.

It wasn’t an easy process: I changed notes, key, textures, and more than once I felt like abandoning the idea. But eventually, everything clicked into place.

🔥 If you’re into ambient music, synth textures, Teenage Engineering gears, or Stranger Things' iconic sound design, this track is for you.

Hope you enjoy it!

🎧 For the full immersive experience — subtle textures, evolving pads, spatial details, and low-end nuances — listening with headphones is highly recommended."

Harmonium VST FREE With Crow Hill VAULTS

video upload by CROW HILL

"With Theo off on hols this week Christian opens the lid on one of his favourite instruments, The Harmonium. Think Penguin Cafe Orchestra, think Jon Brion, think a leading (albeit inanimate) character in Punch Drunk Love."

Press release follows:

The Crow Hill Company announces availability of VAULTS - HARMONIUM, bringing bellows to DAWs as latest free VI abiding by its Make Music, Your Music motto

EDINBURGH, UK: The Crow Hill Company is proud to announce availability of VAULTS - HARMONIUM — bringing bellows to DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations) as its latest free VI (Virtual Instrument) monthly drop, allowing anyone to experience the timbral complexities and harmonic layers of its gorgeous and, some might say, quaint instrument namesake for the rest of their lives, abiding, as always, by the Edinburgh-based enterprise creators’ collective Make Music, Your Music motto — as of October 24…

Its iconic appearance in Director/Writer Paul Thomas Anderson’s 2002-released dark romantic comedy Punch: Drunk Love — look it up! — may make many think of the harmonium in a certain way. What is certain, though, is that the small free-reed organ was patented way before, back in 1842 by Frenchman Alexandre Debain. By being smaller and less expensive than traditional pipe organs, it quickly became popular through Europe, India, Africa, and the southern United States. Travelling through the north of the UK, harmoniums can still be found tucked away in the corners of many recording studios. Saying that, those that are there are not just set dressing; after all, the harmonium captured the hearts of artists such as The Beatles, Supertramp, Penguin Cafe Orchestra, and Tori Amos, all of whom featured it in their music.

Making music with a harmonium is easier said than done, however, since the instrument in question generates sound by pumping air — using two foot-operated pedals joined to a mechanism that operates a bellows or by pushing and pulling a handle joined to the bellows back and forth with one hand — past a thin piece of metal in a frame and making it vibrate. Vibrations then resonate through the harmonium’s wooden body, thereby producing the distinctive, church-like sound. Thankfully, The Crow Hill Company has succeeded in capturing this sound to produce VAULTS - HARMONIUM, making it much easier for many more appreciative sound-seekers to experience its musical magic.

Composer Christian Henson — original founder of The Crow Hill Company — freely admits to being a big fan: “It’s got to be one of my favourite instruments. It can bring a simplicity to music — dare I say it, a quaintness, but because of its timbral complexities, it’s also massively expressive.”

Play Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush on Stylophone

video upload by Stylophone

"ON THIS DAY: KATE BUSH ‘RUNNING UP THAT HILL (A DEAL WITH GOD)’

Released on this day, 40 years ago on August 5th 1985, Kate Bush’s ‘Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God) was more than a lead single - it was a seismic moment in art-pop history.

The track opened her Hounds of Love album, blending analog synths with raw emotion and poetic intensity. It’s now hailed as a masterpiece of experimental pop and has found a new generation of fans thanks to Stranger Things.

Critics praised Bush’s boundary-pushing production and storytelling, with Hounds of Love now considered one of the greatest albums of the 1980s.

Lost in Teenage Engineering OP-XY - Stranger Things' inspired jam

video upload by Lo-fi Pask

"Exploring deep basslines and cinematic textures with the Teenage Engineering OP-XY – a dark synth journey inspired by Stranger Things.

There are moments like this when I feel lost.

Every time, I tell myself that I need to move on, change things up a bit, make a jam with another synth; but the Teenage Engineering OP-XY is a vortex that pulls you in once you find the right sounds, the rest just flows naturally. This happened with the Danger Things sound pack by Metropolis Border, inspired by the dark atmospheres of Stranger Things: as soon as I started listening to it, something clicked, and just dropping in a deep bass was enough to kick everything off.
In the track, I also used some of OP-XY’s default presets, and I realized that with just a touch of sound design, you can bring out some really great things. At the bottom, you’ll find links to all the packs I used.

As usual, the beginning is very ambient, but the track quickly evolves, taking darker and more mysterious turns, until it reaches the rhythmic part, which is definitely more intense than usual. I only prepared the song’s scenes, but I preferred to perform it live. During the performance, I let myself go, especially towards the end, really getting into it: OP-XY’s punch-in effects are as simple to use as they are effective.

Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy it.

In the last Daft Punk clip, the Juno-106 pitch bend spring wasn’t working properly—it didn’t return to the center, so I had to return it manually. So it was a bit challenging 😁"
