My favorite pinball machine ! I so miss the 80's ! The best decade ever ! Music, arcades, movies, fashion, ambiance and....girls ! 🎶🎤 80's 💖 A great talent woman. Thanx a lot Suzanne Ciani !
I was never a pinball fanatic. But in 1980, during my lunch break as a hospital worker, I frequented a nearby snackbar, which had a Xenon Pinball machine. I quickly found that snackbar's Xenon Pinball machine to be particularly entertaining and fun to play! With the recent releases of popular Sci Fi futuristic movies, the timing of this Xenon Pinball game was perfect! Very unusual is that this Xenon Pinball machine had a sexy female voice, with a bit of an electronic edge to it's sound. That reminded you, the player, that this sexy female Xenon robot host character had enticed you into playing this seemingly futuristic game. As your pinball in play ricocheted off of the game's bumpers, Xenon's female voice would emit these sexy little "oohs" & "aahs"! And sometimes the Xenon voice would throw you a suggestion to enhance your experience, "Try tube shot!". Regardless of whatever final game score you achieved, you always enjoyed yourself, when you played Xenon!
Now I figured it out, she looks or rather a young actress of today's era looks like her, Anna Kendrick... Finally, been bugging me Everytime this would show up in my feed, this video, which I had saved in "watch later"...
Interesting how people’s voices, tones, ways of talking all sound similar in a certain era and change with the times. The fact that these guys are so determined to create a pinball machine… where do people get the energy to do such trivial stuff I can’t even find the energy to do important things lol
Xenon is you, if you're a woman. Just right for you, if you're a woman. Fits where it should, so it feels good. Goes where you go, and it looks good. It's the jean to be seen in, Xenon. Xenon is you.
@@cc-hl9yo Well you'd have to admit that simply putting your finger on the keyboard of many factory presets that come inside the synths these days often creates a whole environment, arpeggiator, muti-layered sequence and all. Any idiot with a few bucks can do it. Back in the old days you often built sounds from scratch, and multi-tracked them -- or cut up tape bits and spliced them together! Don't get me wrong, there are many talented people being quite creative with their machines these days too, but entry into the field is way easier.
I discovered that voice in 80-81 at 13. Drove me wild.
Her voice is like an ASMR artist dream
Her voice Is incredibly soothing.
Oh god!
Sir Peter Ustinov narration as always... charming.
I would have paid good money to hear him read a phone book for an hour.
40 years later, and this episode still gives me chills.
This is so cool, you've got to love her enthusiasm
"In the future women with sound chips in their earrings will listen to Beethoven symphonies"
AirPods! Almost.
Unfortunately, they listen to garbage instead of Beethoven...
@@dreamlandnightmare Who, women?
@@dreamlandnightmare You literally just said every woman listens to trash. How ignorant are you?
@@ZiggyCashmere neither the OP or the guy who you replied to said "*every* woman".
She probably had a mega blast doing the sounds for that pinball. I did play that exact one on an old rural gas station in Venezuela in the 80s.
I am definitely trying the tube shot
....and I "try her again" for sure.
so sexually overt - fallopian tube i guess
"It's never been done before". We need to reconnect with that mindset, as opposed to "Let's stick only with what's been done before."
I think the best way in the modern day is to detether from what has or hasn't been done, and just get into a vacuum and create whatever comes.
the whole thing is amazing. aesthetics of computers, subject, suzanne, everything.
This is awesome, she is amazing
Amazing woman!

A great talent woman. Thanx a lot Suzanne Ciani !
Mrs?
@@hemlo7494 Not at that time. She got married about a decade later; lasted about 8 years.
This is the pinball machine your mom won't let you play, and you won't understand why until your older.
Try a tube shot!
Que bella voz
I see Suzanne Ciani is now in her mid-seventies. Makes me feel so old.
Beautiful woman
WHY didn’t Nintendo hire this woman!? I can’t even imagine how even much more amazing Mega Man would have been with her compositions?
The NES did not have nearly a sophisticated enough sound chip for this.
@@untziggy4SNES Did though
So very effing' cool!
This is amazing and her voice is sooo smooth and sexy it makes me flutter!
2:05 are the sounds in my head when i see Suzanne Ciani
Ha! I remember Xenon. It was dazzingly futuristic when it showed up at the arcade.

Great video. Been reading about Omni lately and it sounds like it was a really interesting magazine. Would love to see the show. Looks fascinating.

This makes me want to find a Xenon pinball machine and check it out.
What a GAWD
Before videogames soundtracks.... :-)
I assume it was bizarrely futuristic for 1981.
Thanks for posting this! Really cool.
wonderful
awesome this is inspiring.
I think I rented this from Premiere Video when I was a kid
......grande Suzane!
You mean 😏 Suzanne---not Suzane---Ciani, right 👉, Nora?
2:08 ciani invented gabber
this is the coolest shit I've ever seen
Love this video. I made my friends watch it the weekend after I got Xenon. @3:07 is the dark haired gentleman Greg Kmiec?
"The chip allows her a total of 5 seconds." DEFEAT THE TYRANNICAL CHIP!!!!
😅
Hello.. hello.. hello.. 1.. 2.. 3.. Welcome.. welcome.. throw more money into this machine..
Drain Monster.
This is where sound effects began!
A time with all possibilities. But you need lots of money for the technical stuff.
WOOOOOOOW!
Is that an early Synclavier?
what was the omni magazine tv show?
Science and innovation
Insert coin for extended play!
Tangerine Dream.
Hello, Peter Ustinov.
welcome to xenon...
Xenon is you, if you're a woman. Just right for you, if you're a woman.
Fits where it should, so it feels good. Goes where you go, and it looks good.
It's the jean to be seen in, Xenon. Xenon is you.
Whats the name of the song at the beginning?
The Third Wave - Love in the Waves
@@lokaytion4137 Good catch. Ciani fan I take it ? Added to my GoogMusic and now I'm checking out IMDB. - thx.

🙄😜😝😘 Chip
She did all this work and The Pinball Wizard was Deaf, Dumb, And blind. 😁
When electronic music actually required skill.
lol absolutely fuck off
Hey, ever tried this yourself?

@@garycitro1674 Yea but who sits down and listens to multilayered keyboard preset songs? Its more accessible to start but listeners keep the bar high
She ain't no squarepusher
