I See Monkeys - 1984

YouTube via frankothemountain. via wire to the ear where you can find some more info on this one.
"One of my first 4 track songs from 1984 using the Moog 12 modular synth.

I see monkeys on the train
they're goin' to work
they're so well trained
I see monkeys inventing cars
but they're stuck in traffic
I see them crash their cars

I see monkeys
I see monkeys
I see monkeys
we're all monkeys

and I see monkeys standing on line
waiting for things
and wasting time
then I see a mirror in my room
I go to look, and I'm a monkey too

I saw a monkey
they're all monkeys
I see monkeys
we're all monkeys"

Making of a drum synth: Tom Module Concept

"The sound source is a 'true' sine wave oscillator. This means that the sinewave is generates using a 18dB/oct filter made to resonate permanently. On other synth vco's sine wave are sometimes generated by 'bending' a triangle-wave into a sine wave. The difference between a true sinewave oscillator and a 'bent' sine-oscillator is only noticeable in fast frequency modulation. Due to it's nature the sinewave gets asymmetric generating overtones."
