"Documentary about Alfredo Aliaga, he lives in Peru, makes synth pop music and manufactures analog synthesizers."
You might recognize his synths from these previous posts:

Update via psylux:
"There were a couple of words that hard to make out but here is what was said

'Well the complete story is the following:

Before graduating university I wanted a sythesizer, to play, but I was broke. I tried to find money, find work, find a used one, I tried everything but it was too expensive. A MicoKorg was $700, and there were no used ones - well it was a disaster. So I said to hell with it, and built my own.

[I communicated with one person, more than any other] and he couldn't believe they were made in Peru. When he invited me to join his band/group, I started [making synths again] because I'd actually quit. I made the first one, and it didn't sound good so I had quit building.

The "Eclipse". I made it in a day. Sometimes I have an idea, and like an obsession I keep thinking of it and it gets to where I disregard other things so I must finish it to be calm again.

Q: What is that?
A: Its a photo-synthsezier. It has an oscillator but its controlled with a photocell and you can alter the sound by varying the light on the cell.

I made 3 version of the sequencer. The first was the Medusa, of which I sold and its gone. This is the second Medusa thats a bit bigger but its all on one board. And the third one is called "Mochika" and its optimized. Its got ins and outs and can be synced to other gear, other Mochikas or drum machines with analog signals not digitally.

The song we made with [Dante?] was a Mochika connected to a TR-606 Drumatix.

Everything I tell you is a lie. [context?]

I never make plans or drawings, or few. I do it mentally - I think out the structure in blocks in my mind, When its clear what Im going to do I go to the computer and I begin to draw the circuits. Sometimes I just sit there , just like that, like I'm doing nothing, but I'm just thinking.'"

Gary Numan - Are 'Friends' Electric ? (1979)


YouTube via orestes988.
"Gary Numan performs Are Friends Electric from the Replica album. 1979."
Note Billy Currie of Ultravox and Visage on ARP Odyssey. Video also features the MOOG Polymoog and Minimoog and I'm guessing a Yamaha CS80.

BTW, I couldn't find the original video for Are Friends Electric, only the following clip. If anyone can find it, let me know.

OBERHEIM OBXa + JUNO 60 + SH 101 + TR 606 Part 3


YouTube via magevers.
"The fat "jump" Oberheim OBXa, the JUNO 60 and the small but also great sounding SH 101 together. I have used the sequencer of the SH 101 and the arpeggio of the JUNO 60. They were triggered by the TR 606. The OBXa was played in unison(mono) mode. This recording was made with a small pocket camera."
