really nice instruments :) captures the mood perfectly

Getting ready for the ski season, smack down in the middle of synthwave and some genuine '80s library synth-pop (not really, though - I haven't skied in decades.)

Here I am revisiting my very first synth - the Korg Wavestation. Most of the sounds come from a bank I've been putting together in the course of the past couple of days - probably my first real programming session with this synth since the '90s! 

Works great for this kind of stuff as well, even though it's best known for slowly evolving ambient pads, and probably those cheesy wave-sequencing percussion loops.

One chOrd shOrt Of a LooP

For this track I used 17 instances of Subtractor which was the first and only synthesizer in Reason 1.0 back in 2001. 

For reverb and delay I used Reason's DDL-1 and RV7000. For creamy long reverbs I used a free plugin by Airwindows named Galactic 64. On the masterbus I used Channev by Analog Obsession which is a free mastering plugin.

Taron - Synfully Romantic

Home of Synthophones that ran out of luck. Or are about too. Life is hard, getting chased around by voracious phonovores. But whenever possible, it´s always good to get together and hoot a bit. Well...over there, it´s called music.
