  • Donna Summer's classic "I Feel Love" took Giorgio Moroder/Pete Bellotte production flair to the top of the charts, and we've got our synth captain Will Kurk in the studio, recreating the #SynthSoundsOf this disco classic. So good, so good, so good, so good, sooooo good...

    When David Bowie first heard this song, he loudly proclaimed: "This is the future!" Boy was he right!

    Just in case you didn't know, yes he did use a Moog modular. However, he recorded it onto a tape and did something not repeatable, exactly like you hear on the recording. He took a length of that tape, looped it in a huge loop and ran it through a tape playback machine having several people guiding the loop to keep it from slipping out of the machine! That was recorded against other tracks adding delay and was the foundation to the song... Separate the left from the right and you hear two distinct bass synth tracks that aren't exactly synced throughout the loop but jump back into sync at the beginning of the loop... Not to mention the digital drum tracks! :-) BTW... Soooo much cool gear to play with, there... Reverb!!!

    This guy would be ideal as a teacher in a school, bringing synths to life to school kids. Turning it into a story as he does here would work brilliantly in school I would think.

    As a teenager & aspiring songwriter, I got to meet Donna Summer when her single was being promoted on the US military circuit. I got her autograph on the “ILTLUB” single! I treasure it to this day. Giorgio Moroder a legend in Disco music productions! Like Silver Convention.

    This song changed the.course of music history. The music is incredible and Donns Summer’s vocals don’t compete with the music, but they are married together perfectly. It’s not a cold computer-generated song because her vocals add a warm etherial vibe that truly makes it express the feeling of being enveloped in pure love. It’s a blessing that Giorgio Moroder and Donna Summer found each other and gifted the universe with their talents. Where Donna Summer is now, she sings, and her voice can bend the universe. She certainly made time stand still in her lifetime, and the angels rejoiced.

    "We're dialling up a sound we have made with this modular synth. And for those who may not be familiar with what that is. A modular synthesiser is a synth made of modules."

    I remember hearing this when I was 14 in England in 1977 & my jaw hit the floor. I'd never heard anything like it. It's just a fantastic song & sound.

    Two words Donna Summer!!! While the music is extraordinary be clear that Donna Summer's operatic sultry voice delivers the majic to this simplistic lyric with its climactic utterings. Donna Summer is canonized in this composition!!

    Respect to our storyteller. I was a kid when I heard this invasion float in on a summer breeze in 1977.

    I could listen to this guy talking about synths all day tbh. I don't even make music yet, though I'm trying to learn.
