This song was originally composed for the HSM Synth Challenge 2 (The Hard, The Soft and The Modular group on Facebook) in January 2015. This was a two days competition where the theme was Winter and every contestant had to compose and film their performances within those 48 hours and to prevent cheating showing a keyword only issued at the start of the competition.

Hopefully a decent result, although it came in second in the final voting. Got extra points for elaborate video production. ;)

Video 1 pretty much shows all the sounds and instruments used.

After searching the internet for songs written entirely for and with the famous Roland MT-32/CM-32L/CM-64 modules (except those from games made by Sierra, Lucasarts etc), and not finding any - I thought for myself: is it possible to put something together, that won't sound bad even with the default patches and amount of reverb?

I also chose to use only default patches, but allowed myself to dry the sounds, re-record them separately into MOTUs Digital Performer 7.2 and mix them as one would with every other pop song (only compressors, EQs, delays and reverbs not to modify the sounds away from their original intent).

So this is what you get - polished MT-32 sounds that aren't half bad when processed and EQed into place ;)

Tempo: 160 BPM
Key: Em, modulating to Gm
Instrument/patches used:
Part 2: #069 - Slap Bass 1
Part 3: #049 - Str Sect 1
Part 4: #029 - SynBass 1
Part 5: #048 - Square Wave
Part 6: #045 - DoctorSolo
Part 7: #004 - ElecPiano 1
Part 8: #105 - Marimba 
Part 9: #031 - SynBass 3
Part 10: Drums

A little happy pop tune using only Roland MT-32, CM-32L and CM-32P/CM-64 modules.

Autumn Dancing

Electronic musician from Norway. I started playing piano/keyboards in the mid 80s. After a few years at the municipal music school, I quickly grew tired of the simple piano-only education and got to move on to classes with keyboards and synths. From the early beginning with Technics K-200 rhythm keyboard from 1983 via some Casios/Hohner keyboards, I evolved with the later Technics KN-1000 and KN-2000 before moving on to Roland XP-50. As the computer revolution made DAWs affordable, 1999 made sequencing using Cubase easy and the studio grew ever larger with more outboard gear. Today the studio has become a sizeable and functional MIDI/arranging studio with over 40 synths/modules and more centered around a MacPro with MOTU’s Digital Performer, and numerous more or less famous productions.

I have always had a musical approach towards sound engineering and composing, rooted mainly in vivid harmonic structures and saturated compositions. Inspiration has always been the likes of Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis, Eric Serra to name a few giants in the electronic scene, but also a heart towards well produced pop music from the 70s and 80s as well as epic film scores from John Williams, Alan Silvestri and Hans Zimmer. The baby era of computer music from the late 80s and early 90s was also a heavy influence.
