Annoying synth neighbor
YouTube via electriceyeLLC. There's a small Not Safe for Work moment - tiny screen.
"a short film about having an annoying roommate with a lot of synths."
First Flight

"My first experience on the Arp 2600 semi-modular synthesizer reminded me of the first time I flew an airplane."

Mellotron Mk.II

"Two good friends of ours were getting married, and asked Roger Manning and I (the Moog Cookbook) to play the wedding. It's not something we would normally do, but these would really good friends. We decided to surprise them by doing the show in tuxedos and space helmets, on a Mellotron Mk.II. This Mk.II is one of a few made in black, originally came from Graham Nash of the Hollies.
In order to prepare, I did some demos of the tunes, and have some mp3s of this. As you may have seen the LEFT side of the MkII is all rhythm parts and "fills" (instruments that superimpose over the rhythms.) The RIGHT side keyboard has all the main sounds you know from Mellotrons. I've added a custom set of sounds on the right, but what you hear is mainly stock sounds; basically what a 1964 Mellotron demo performance would be like, but with more modern songs. It's only a 2-track recording (left and right) without editing, just played live, but that does show how cool the Mellotron sound was when played as intended. If people like these, I have more to hear sometime..."
