"Ableton Live sending random notes to Atari 2600 with SynthCart and Highly Liquid MIDI interface, patched through analogue filters"

YouTube via starerik
"This was my first complete song using KORG DS-10. The software is pretty limited. You can only use 2 synths at a time, so it sounds very "empty". But still. I hope you like it. :)

It's "The Gremlin Rag" from the movie classic "Gremlins". Music composed by Jerry Goldsmith."

Heavens Basoon

YouTube via SynthFrode
"Heavens Basoon is one of my first melodies made with the Roland Juno 106 Synthesizer. I bought it in 1985 and it is still working and makes great sounds. The only additional "instrument" in this melody is the drum-machine from Korg "Super Drums DDM-110". This melody is made late in the year 2006."

Roland TR-707: Going Back In Time With Bill Holland

YouTube via gearwire
"Digging up a relic of yester-score, Bill Holland takes a look at the Roland TR-707, which is finally stepping out of the shadow of the Roland TR-909 for throwback eight and six bit drum samples, which are all the rage these days.

See the TR-707 at its campiest, complete with more cowbell and even more tambo. It'll be like that time Ben Stiller seized all my candy when I was a kid.

See more on Gearwire.com."

Alesis Andromeda A6 Demo

"Reinklang - Circulator. I believe the drums are from the D4...IIRC. The A6 is shipping again as of 10/2008, yay! Hands down the best polysynth ever. If you don't have one or sold one or several (like me) do yourself a favor and get it. It does creamy smooth analog really really good."
