One of my favorite songs from the 80s.
Radio Ga Ga by Queen from the album The Works (1984)
Written by Roger Taylor

featured the Oberheim OB-Xa, the Oberheim Matrix-1000, the Oberheim Xk, the Yamaha Reface CP and the PPG wave 2.2 (in the original song is the bassline made with the Roland Jupiter-8 arpeggiator)

This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks.
My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers."

Access Virus TI soundscape - Some days just happen

video upload by MIDERA

"Some days just happen.

I’ve been really frustrated by the lack of communication at a company I was buying something from. So I mention my frustrations on a forum and people just have apparently have no means of sympathizing and have to be all terse about it. I don’t know why this kind of thing ruins my day - but it does. So now I’m frustrated by this company - and by people on forums. I just want to cancel my order and say screw it.

Then - a huge storm came through today and broke a huge branch off of a tree. That fell and smashed into our deck, damaging it. It also smashed into an apricot tree - now we need to cut down that tree too.

I’m thankful my kids were safe through all of this of course.

Oh yeah, and our basement flooded and a bunch of games got ruined.

Just - sometimes - It just seems like nothing can go right.

Well, that’s why I go play music. It just takes me away from all of that.

No external fx used."

Update: I was curious what a "Compton church organ" might be. A quick search brought up the following via Wikipedia:

"John Compton (1876–1957) was a pipe organ builder, born in Newton Burgoland, Leicestershire, England.[1] His business based in Nottingham and London flourished between 1902 and 1965.[2]"

And:

"Compton cinema organs, built by the John Compton Organ Company of Acton, were the most prevalent of theatre organs in the UK. 261 were installed in cinemas and theatres in the British Isles. Comptons made many fine church and concert organs as well. The company's cinema organs employed the latest technology and engineering and many are still in existence. One of the most notable is the large 5 manual example at the Odeon Cinema Leicester Square in central London."

Gotharman's Zaturn VCF5 Preset Bank

video upload by gotharman

"The preset bank made for the new VCF5. Some brand new presets, but also some of the 'old' ones, tweaked to fit VCF5. VCF5 is based on the best selling filter board VCF2, with added 24db LPF and BPF modes, and self-oscillating resonance . It also has the cool and brutal analog distortion :)
