Sunday Synth Jam: Synthesist Pasquale Lello (Lo-fi Pask) shared this ambient synth jam, recorded on a Teenage Engineering OP-XY while waiting at the airport:
Here’s what shared about the technical details:
“It’s incredible how easily ideas take shape with Teenage Engineering OP-XY. Last night, while working on another project, this ‘ambient’ experiment was born. I used all factory presets, except for the airport background noise. It was recorded with the Teenage Engineering TX-6, which added extra reverb and some other effects.
The Electro-Classic Orchestra shared the video for Beethoven Five!, their take on Walter Murphy’s 1976 classic, A Fifth Of Beethoven.
Some might think that Murphy’s A Fifth Of Beethoven epitomizes everything cheesy about the ’70s – including disco, pop covers of classical music and late-stage Moogsploitation.
The members of the Electro-Classic Orchestra only know better, though, and their version of A Fifth Of Beethoven might just make you see the disco hit in a new light:
The Electro-Classic Orchestra version has it all – ‘Moogsploitation’ style synth sounds, propulsive drums, a great arrangement, and even awesome staches.
If you like what you hear, make sure you check out their album Bach ReWired on Amazon, a new collection of ‘switched on’ synth arrangements.
