Claude Debussy - Clair De Lune (RAC Analog Synthesizer Version)

Hear the entire RAC discography by subscribing to this Spotify playlist: http://found.ee/RACdiscog

This is one of the finest pieces of music ever written. It's very cinematic and I was kinda bored on a friday night, so I decided to just make my own version of it.
It's featuring the Minimoog model D, which has some trouble staying in tune, especially on the high notes. The Juno-60 on the chords. I ran the last half of it through this old tape deck, so you kinda get this rough tape hiss and distortion. 
I was kinda inspired by this arrangement of another song.

I've always been a big fan of the Tomita version as well.

2015 Edit: It goes without saying, Wendy Carlos was also largely influential. Check out "Switched on Bach", or "A Well Tempered Synthesizer" to hear where all of this started. 

Hope you like it.

Liebesträume (German for Dreams of Love) is a set of three solo piano works by Franz Liszt, published in 1850. 

Originally the three Liebesträume were conceived as lieder after poems by Ludwig Uhland and Ferdinand Freiligrath. In 1850, two versions appeared simultaneously as a set of songs for high voice and piano, and as transcriptions for piano two-hands.

Steinway artist, Chad Lawson, decided Chopin needed a new introduction.  Along with violinist Judy Kang (Lady Gaga, Ryuichi Sakamoto) and cellist Rubin Kodheli (Kanye West, Norah Jones), Lawson has arranged ten Chopin works into a minimalist landscape.

It's a risk editing the "poet of the piano" but one that Chopin would be proud of.  

Taking 10 Chopin works, Lawson decided to scale the works down to a minimalist setting.  "I knew even if bare-bones, Chopin's works could still be as spellbinding as the original compositions we are so familiar with." says the pianist.  

Produced by Chad Lawson & Alejandro Clavijo. Mixed by Stephen Lee Price.  Mastered by Michael Graves of Osiris Studios (Atlanta, GA).

The Master is a short song based on a text by Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) form within a set of works entitled “Poems in Prose”. The text depicts the day of Christ’s crucifixion in Jerusalem where Joseph of Arimathea (the man who donated his family tomb for Jesus’ burial) encounters another wounded and naked, and weeping man who claims he has also performed the same miracles as christ and deserves the same fate. This man is devastated that Jesus received all the attention and that the crowd seemingly forgot to crucify him as well. Wilde is most likely commenting on the naivety of romanticizing  martyrdom, which is exemplified by the young man in the poem. 

The music is intended to reflect the bizarreness and peculiarities of the young man’s grievances through chromaticism and a clear rapid modulating passages incapable of settling in a single key.
