Visitors - KOTO cover by Asteroid Killer

Published on Feb 13, 2020 AsteroidKillerMusic

"Tribute Thursday!

This video is a tribute to the legendary italo disco group - KOTO

In this short version of their great hit Visitors, I'm using the Carbon sequencer to sequence the bass. The different melodies was played live except the small counter part after the second main riff witch was sequenced on the Matrix Brute and started manually by trigger a key and stopped with a foot pedal. Everything was recorded live in one go to Ableton. The reverb was added in post.

Bass - Moog Grandmother
Main riff - Roland SH101
Second and third melody - Moog Sub37
Counterpart to the third melody - Arturia Matrix Brute
Bridge to the break - ARP Odyssey
Drums - Roland TR707
Sequencer - Kilpatrick Audio Carbon
Reverb - OTO BAM

Original song was recorded and released by KOTO in 1985."

Asteroid Killer - Pinball King

Published on Apr 5, 2018 AsteroidKillerMusic

"This is a video I did for my latest track, Pinball King. I play the same synthesizers in the video as I do on the original recording with two exceptions. One, I use Linndrum samples in the original recording not the TR-707. Two, I use a Moog Minitaur for the bassline but that did not look fun on the screen so I replaced it with a Sub 37.

Bass - Moog Minitaur
Main arpeggio - Arturia Matrix Brute
Bells and E-piano - Ensonig ESQ1
Lead - ARP Odyssey
Solo - Roland SH101
Noise sweep - Korg MS20
Drums - Linndrum samples
Toms - Clavia Nord drum 3p
Pinball sounds - Mr & Mrs PacMan

This song is also available for download on Bandcamp"
