Foreigner Waiting For A Girl Like You ~ Vintage Synthesizer Recreation ~ RetroSound


video upload by RetroSound

"(c)2007-24 by RetroSound
supported by UVI: http://bit.ly/retrosound-uvi

❤️ Support #RetroSound​ channel: https://retrosound.creator-spring.com

One of my favorite tracks from the 80s
made by Foreigner from the year 1981.

Used gear: Oberheim OB-Xa, Yamaha Reface CP, Moog Source

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.
Check out the original songs with the original artists here on YouTube.
Thank you.

My favorite song from the Electric Light Orchestra from the Album TIME (1981)
Journey to my childhood. ✨
In the early 1980s, my father was lucky to get an AMIGA license album from ELO. It wasn't easy in the GDR. The album was my first contact with synthesizer sounds. The initial spark, so to speak, long before New Wave music aroused my interest. I kept putting the record on and the songs burned into my brain.

I used here the Oberheim OB-Xa Synthesizer for the pads, string sounds and the main synth riff. The bass is made with the Moog Taurus.
And I used the Roland VP-330 Vocoder Plus for the vocoder voices and string/choir sounds . The piano sound is made with the Yamaha Reface CP"

The Sound of Genesis - MAMA with ARP Quadra, Moog Taurus, Emulator II, Linndrum


video upload by RetroSound

"❤️ Support #RetroSound​ channel: retrosound.creator-spring.com

The second Genesis video of three in the mini series. Mama is one of my favorite Genesis songs.
Yes it`s a cover but not original at all. It`s my interpretation of this great song.

I used The DX7 for the voice main synth sound. In the original song is the sound made with the NED Synclavier II. The triggered chord sound is made with the ARP QUADRA.
The analog pad sound and the deep humming sound is made with the Oberheim OB-Xa. In the original with the Prophet-5/10.
The deep bass in the middle part is the MOOG TAURUS bass pedals.
The thin synthetic sound in the middle part is made with the Emulator II.
The drum beat is the LinnDrum. Additional Percussion is Simmons SDS-8 and Emulator II."

The Oberheim OB-X Analog Synthesizer (1979)
For me one of the best synthesizers ever made. I use the OB-X many years and I had never technical problems. The sound is very different to the later curtis chip based OB--Xa. But I like both.
My OB-X is a eight voice. Enjoy some sounds."
