Sooo... here's an old earworm, that I just couldn't resist. Many of you remember the classic "Are you keeping up with the Commodore" commercial, and I had several requests over the last year if I could do a number on this. I tried to keep as much as possible from the original, but upgrading it, beefing it up and make it a little more snappy.

Since there are no multitracks available with the original vocal recordings, I just used www.vocalremovers.org since it's free, and it did a decent job of separating the voices from the backing track. Some phasing and flanging occurs, but I hope the delay and reverb plus the blending in the mix covers most of that anyway.

The song is in 163 BPM, so there's little time to relax, but it also gives a good drive. Using a lot of everything here, Roland MKS modules, Yamaha TX and Motifs, Kurzweil 1000PX, Alesis QSR, Ensoniq SD-1, TS-10, Sequential TOM and various other hardware synths. Some ReFX Nexus2 with various expansion packs here and there, and some SID/Chiptunes thrown in for good measure. It's after all... about the Commodore, right?

Tried to find the original composers and songwriters, but couldn't find any. If you happen to know who made this song, please let me know in the comments.

Thanks to The Obsolete Geek for using his parody. Check out his video on the SX-64 here: https://youtu.be/zmMasWCbefA

Also thanks to Kristian Tjessem for letting me use the picture of his C64 and monitor.

And last, but not least, thanks to my patreons and you fans out there.
