This is one of my favourites, I've probably listened to this one over 20 times. Damn, this is such a f**ing good song! I can't imagine how this song would sound with vocals...
@Sjobeck7 Thank you - I've loved Valerie Dore since hearing "The Night" and "Get Closer" when they came out. She was big in Italy back then her songs could be heard everywhere
LOVELY GREAT YAMAHA DX-7 TUBULAR BELLS BUT JUPITER 8 AND OBERHEIM OBX-A ARE TRULY MAGNIFICENT.LONG LIVE ITALO DISCO STYLE.NEW ROLAND JUPITER 80 CANT COMPETE WITH THIS ROLAND JUPITER 8 EVEN IN THE WILDEST DREAMS.LONG LIVE TRUE ANALOG KING ROLAND JUPITER 8
@FrankNFurter1000 Thank you it's probably the lead sound with portamento on the Jupiter-8 giving that effect that reminds you of Howard Jones, "New Song" has a similar portamento sound
That Oberheim sound! Just watched several of your videos. So tempted to go drag all my analogues out of storage where they have languished for the past 10 years. Great stuff. Love it.
this is fantastic because you're all 3 for the roles that they are good at. fat leads and bass on the jupiter, lush chords on the oberheim and glassy bells on the dx. I would love to hear this on spotify if it is not already
Alloha.. well thats an amazing dreamset of the great analog sysnths.. My Obi is also powerfull..one of the best things of my life..never sell that amazing gear... great trac..greetings andy
i've always liked synths and electronic stuff, but just now i'm getting into it. i just can say that this is far the best youtube channel i've ever seen, greetings from chile
@marcusjknight Thank you - yes, the previous owner had painted them black and also drilled some holes for a keyboard stand. It was not possible to bring the original wood color back so I had them professionally filled in and painted black over.
Awesome! Also question. Can you recommend me a drum machine thats not going to kill me on price. I would like some thing less than 200 bucks because after that I might as well just get a korgmicrosampler.
howard still tours with his jupiter8...it's pretty much his 80's rig with a couple moog prodigy's next to each other, and a couple other vintage synths....i haven't seen what the setup looks like in awhile, but i'm pretty sure he still has the jupiter 8 in there somewhere!
Either the Roland TR-808 or the LinnDrum of course, it depends on the genre you would like to make. I have the 808 myself, and the various sounds of it that can be edited for the greater part, makes it one seriously versatile machine. Be prepared to (have it) service it, as it is 35 years old by now. I replaced all electrolytic caps on mine, as well swapped one broken pot and desoldered all slide switches from the PCB, took them apart and cleaned all small parts in them. I also switched the transformer tap from 220V to 240V. Now, it works great! That recognizable powerful analog sound... now I know why these prices have gone so dramatically up from machines like this!
@ZwamTek Eventually I plan to re-record all these songs properly with a good mixing console and effects, and release an album... my problem is time right now.
I love this track. It feels like one of my favorite songs from the 80s but I've never heard this before. this is the first time that I've heard it.
This music was the bases for everyhing early eighties in Brooklyn, NY. I loved it.
What a beautiful sounds - space romantics-) Italo, Space, and Discofunk is the Best music styles on earth!-)
This is one of my favourites, I've probably listened to this one over 20 times. Damn, this is such a f**ing good song!
I can't imagine how this song would sound with vocals...
Please put out an album on itunes I will buy it.
Very nice! What a dream come true to be able to do this on these wonderful machines. Can't be mimiced good enough!
The dx bells sound amazing the jupiter lead heavenly the oberheim strings beautiful
I discovered your fabulous Italo tunes about two weeks ago and I keep coming back to watch them. They're heavily addictive man!!!!
I've got to tell you: These improvisations/originals in & of Italo-Disco style sound like space-age swing-dance music... And quite beautiful at that.
That was awesome i love your style, the Jupiter 8 and the Oberheim sound amazing.
3-4 minutes is pure pop awesomeness, but 9 minutes is pure heavenly synth bliss, i dug every minute of it!!
Good music to refresh the mind and the soul. Grazie bambino ¡¡¡
Classic 80's sounds!
Great!!! Awesome!!!
У вас очень атмосферный канал. Красиво играете. Успехов вам
Fantastic 80's synth sounds
I see perms, hairspray, cherry red suits and DeLoreans.
I miss the 80s!
Sounds great!
That Jupiter 8 lead sound is epic
+no google plus As well as incredible DX7's bells and chic soft OB-Xa's sound.
Great 80s performance! BR from Austria!
@Sjobeck7 Thank you - I've loved Valerie Dore since hearing "The Night" and "Get Closer" when they came out. She was big in Italy back then her songs could be heard everywhere
fantastica voce di questi vecchi sintetizzatori, mi piace molto il suono della loro
Che meraviglia di suoni... Bello il motivo 80's
OB-x melts hearts and minds! When its working!
Paolo. Your videos are addictive. Seem a back leap when italodisco reigned in the airplays
Thank you, Pomombo
You should release this on CD! Great!
I love that chord progression. Great tune!!!
A one man orchestra ffffing amazing !!
I have a DX and Xa, Jupiter: You'll be mine when I have a spare 10k. haha
Hehehe thank you - I'm getting a classic mixing console from 1984 in a couple of days, then I'll definitely get started on recording the album ;-)
@Disasteradio Hehehe...thank you -. I remember P Lion well :)

@rydeentokio yes, the delay is from the Eventide H3000-D/SE, the reverb is from the Roland M-10DX
You play so fine. You are a Master.
Very nice sounds
Cool vid, great to see classic synths still going strong! Always wanted a Jupiter 8.
Me 2
Three Great Synthesisers beautiful
@ProjektU9 Thank you, Andy - yes, the OB-series is fantastic. I'd love to get an OB-X at some point
I love that piano
This is amazing!!! Has a touch of Howard Jones about it :P xxx
Same Synth mania have done it again 80s / 70s feel spooky brilliant encore
@FrankNFurter1000 Thank you it's probably the lead sound with portamento on the Jupiter-8 giving that effect that reminds you of Howard Jones, "New Song" has a similar portamento sound
@muzixco Thank you for watching it
Beautiful strings! Bellissimo!
Grazie!
Exelente demostración! Felicitaciones! Tipo melodías ochenteras!
Very acute observation
Great video, great gear.
And the OB-Xa with the black wooden ends looks so sweet and elegant, IMHO even better than the original.
Dream setup man, cool music, thanks for sharing.
GREAT music!
I love this sound! Very cool
Love this melodies! If You'll have this recorded somewhere, I would like to have it!!! An Old Italo sound!!!! GREAT!
this sound remember me "the Creatures" famous italo-dance-group and Kano . Great work! from Italy!
damn, i am seriously loving this.....gonna pull out all my 80's italo/hi-nrg classics when i get home!!
@Accordeons6000 thank you
Holy hell you really nailed the mid-80s call-and-response with an FM synth thing that italo artists would do
that realy sounds 80's! love it!
Excellent. Awesome. Love it.
@ZorroZ350 actually, it is set at UNISON - huge sound
That Oberheim sound!
Just watched several of your videos. So tempted to go drag all my analogues out of storage where they have languished for the past 10 years.
Great stuff. Love it.
+Billy Rhomboid Bill, thank you!
Agree. The Oberheim here sounds marvellous. Or should I say the sound of the Oberheim is marvellous?
The key is the detuning
love song 80s
Great stuff!!
Wow... no words!
Excellent
Nice Oberheim sounds!
Yeah!!!! Italo/Disco of the '80s!!
this is fantastic because you're all 3 for the roles that they are good at. fat leads and bass on the jupiter, lush chords on the oberheim and glassy bells on the dx. I would love to hear this on spotify if it is not already
I could imagine you as a italo disco producer star in the 80's.
nice machines and sound on your channel!!!
Alloha..
well thats an amazing dreamset of the great analog sysnths..
My Obi is also powerfull..one of the best things of my life..never sell that amazing gear...
great trac..greetings andy
ΤΗESE ARE REAL SYNTHESIZERS!!!
Γιώργος Γεωργίου yes
Wow I love this very 80s sounds like the depeche mode
i've always liked synths and electronic stuff, but just now i'm getting into it. i just can say that this is far the best youtube channel i've ever seen, greetings from chile
just damn awesome, wish i also had these nice machines...
keep it up :)
Nice song!
that sounds great!!
If you gave Valerie Dore a microphone here, I'd be listening to this all day long!
That OB-Xa sounds so immaculate too....:)
pura poesía de los ´80 !!!!
Awesome sound !!
That keyboard stand must be very strong to hold all that weight !!
@marcusjknight Thank you - yes, the previous owner had painted them black and also drilled some holes for a keyboard stand. It was not possible to bring the original wood color back so I had them professionally filled in and painted black over.
Right in my youth - BAM!
Awesome! Also question. Can you recommend me a drum machine thats not going to kill me on price. I would like some thing less than 200 bucks because after that I might as well just get a korgmicrosampler.
Listened to the entire composition
OH YEAH! so rad reminds me of P-Lion
Tubular Bells
@ZwamTek Hehee - the mythical Koto!
The Jupiter is big but how phat does the OB-XA sound. I should never have sold mine!
listening to the bass carefully, it seems to me it might be the bass sound to Atlantis is Calling by Modern Talking, anyone got any thoughts.
Amazing bro
howard still tours with his jupiter8...it's pretty much his 80's rig with a couple moog prodigy's next to each other, and a couple other vintage synths....i haven't seen what the setup looks like in awhile, but i'm pretty sure he still has the jupiter 8 in there somewhere!
Love this sound Forever
Cool sounds mate! Love what you do on the bass line below. And off course the DX :)
i would buy an album of just everything you do.
Today there is the great Spacesynth style, a derived from Italo !
that's a great strings patch on the oberheim!
Thank you, yes, I love that type of OB patch - that's the OB sawtooth in full flight IIRC
Sweet. I have that jupiter and obxa in my studio right now. I have no good drum machines right now. Only a stupid digital one at the moment. Any recs?
Either the Roland TR-808 or the LinnDrum of course, it depends on the genre you would like to make. I have the 808 myself, and the various sounds of it that can be edited for the greater part, makes it one seriously versatile machine.

@ZwamTek Eventually I plan to re-record all these songs properly with a good mixing console and effects, and release an album... my problem is time right now.
That combination of Oberheim sound of DX7 bells is totally fantastic! Are there some sheets/MIDI of this song to buy them?
Outstanding!!! - Where were you thirty years ago, when this was big?!?
I LOVE ITALO-DISCO
even on my laptop...i can hear the warmness
Hey, this is fun !!!
