Aah... The "Roland Jupiter 8"... The king of all analog synthesizers!!! What a lovely list of classic synts. However I thought that the Prohpet 5 was used on Forever young.

But, nowadays you can get like all sounds without any synths...
Just today I got a musicprogram that my friend in Daily Planet now uses (he is selling out all his synths) and there you find everything you need!
It´s charming with synths, yes, but maybe the synthezises´ time has past...

I agree with Avil... It's kind of funny to hear the old synth-guys speak devoutly about their analogue synths. I really can't understand their point...It's like using horses instead of cars!

That´s very true. I love synthezises, but some day people have to see the fact that rget belong to the past. The future is not in 1000 years...it´s the next moment you breath.

But...let's not get negative here! Comparing the horse-car thing to this... well, think about it; using horses instead of cars wouldn't be that bad at all, actually it would be friendlier towards the environment :)... synths are just so brilliant I think, they are my tools, if I work with music, I work with synths (or guitars)... you just can't escape the fact that synths provide brilliant and wonderful sounds...just love 'em...:)...

RETRO RETRO RETRO. SYNTHS SYNTHS SYNTHS.... <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> 80'S 80'S 80'S.....

I just have to say: The sound of "SLAM" on the 1984 Forever Young is PHANTASTIC BEAUTIFUL!!!
Even if the 1992 remix on FH by dear Mr Lloyd is maybe more "upbeat" you can´t even compare it with the old 80:th synthesizer sound. It is just something about it I can´t explain.
It's more... pure. And it is, in my oppinion the best they have ever done.
And when I´m on the subject "SLAM", hey the FP version. I F***ING LOOOOVE IT!!!!!!


Never stop Dreaming.
Oh My...
