Cric by Future Sound Systems (This synth is bonkers)
video upload by Sarah Belle Reid
"An in-depth walkthrough and demo of Cric, made by Future Sound Systems. Cric is a self-contained synthesizer with fully modular signal routing. It uses a pin matrix for patching between modules, leading to some unusual and exciting workflows and sounds.
In this video we’ll take a look at everything that’s inside of Cric and how it all works, and I’ll share some of my favorite approaches to using Cric as a performance instrument and sound design tool. And of course, I’ll also share lots of sounds and patches along the way."

One of my favorite movie themes from the early 80s.
Captain Future Suite by Christian Bruhn (1980)
Featured the Moog Minimoog and the Oberheim OB-Xa Synthesizer
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."

The instrument is oriented for live performances, creating film soundtracks, theatre soundtracks, atmospheric sounds, microtonal and background music.

1980 Yamaha SY-22 "Vector Synthesis" Ad
via Retro Synth Ads, where you'll find the full write-up.
"Yamaha SY-22 "Vector Synthesis" advertisement from page 39 in the September 1990 issue of Keyboard Magazine.
In a crowded world of 90s synths, the SY-22 vector synthesizer dared to be different. With FM, sample playback and joy-stick driven sound design, its still loved by a small group of fanatics. I've never owned one... and I still consider myself one of those fanatics."
