Trying to replicate Vangelis' Memories Of Green from the Blade Runner soundtrack.

Live video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqn6AuCiA_s

Vangelis composed (improvised?) Memories Of Green in 1980 for his album See You Later, but it's not as famous as the Blade Runner soundtrack in which the track was included too.

The instrument is a Nord Stage 2, using a sampled Bösendorfer piano with a flanger effect, some synthesizers controlled with an expression pedal, and a generous amount of reverb.

Vangelis plays it on an acoustic piano with beautiful ambient room noise. I tried to replicate the feeling by boosting the pedal noise on my synth, and I added some pads that get pretty dark and intense towards the end.

The instrument is a Nord Stage 2, using a sampled Steinway grand piano and virtual analog synthesizers controlled with an expression pedal, and a generous amount of reverb.

The Woman theme, aka Sherlocked, from the BBC Sherlock TV series, composed by David Arnold and Michael Price in 2012.

The original features a lot of violin and beautiful sounds, I'm trying to do a rawer keyboard version of it.

The instrument is a Nord Stage 2 using a sampled intimidating Yamaha S4 grand piano, some virtual analog synthesizer, echo and a very generous amount of reverb.

La Boum Theme, composed by Vladimir Cosma for the French film La Boum ("The Party", or "Ready for Love") starring Sophie Marceau (the evil Bond girl in The World Is Not Enough - they always pick French actors to play evil characters anyway). Richard Sanderson performed the song "Reality", and the 2011 Korean film Sunny used it too.

The film, cult in France, is about insecure teenagers falling in love so I thought that all my mistakes playing it would fit the narrative.

The instrument is a Clavia Nord Stage 2 using a sampled Yamaha CS-80 electric piano sound from 1976 (synth used a lot by Vangelis but for other sounds) and hints of strings.
