OK. That's a demo, what's possible with a mini size keyboard when the periphery is perfectly arranged, What I don't get is, why the heck to use a mini keyboard? What I also don't get is, why the heck nearly every keyboard today comes *without* aftertouch. E.g. the D-50 in the second half of the 80s: It's a legend that has a lot to do with the built-in aftertouch. It had even a slider to control the aftertouch depth. Btw. congratulations, you have excellent capablities regarding rhythm/metrics.
I've been wanting to learn how to play for a long time. I think I'm finally ready to start, but I have no idea whether I'd be better off getting some sort of MIDI controller like these or a standard, independent keyboard.
Independent keyboard to start. Learning to play is hard enough without the pit falls of trying to figure out a whole software package on top of it. Also there's tons of keyboards that will also output midi so you can have both and learn to use the midi stuff when you're ready.
I knew Axel F was gonna be included in this medley before I even played it 😄 Amazing sound emulation skills… totally took me back to the totally radical 80’s! 🕹📼☎️
It aint 80's without A-ha's Take On Me. You should really do a cover of Take On Me because you've gotton all of the songs you cover near perfect. I have only seen one person get an almost perfect Take On Me cover. DO IT!!!!!!!
@@CaseyQ how about you shut the fuck up and leave him alone? Keep you goddamn comments to yourself if they don’t help or do anything good. Go fuck yourselves 🖕
Your ability to recreate these famous riffs with desktop equipment is truly impressive. You not only have the right notes, but also the tones nailed down.
@@TheUtuber999 A great jam! We didn't really get that single in the US or at least it didn't break into the charts but I agree with you it is an incredibly artistic song with strong lyrics. That dark chorus too! Love it.
49 years young & still listen to these . . . on the vinyl & cassette tapes I bought them on over 30 years ago! The older you get the harder Sweet Dreams hits, Lennox & Stewart were frikin genius level songwriters, just wish I'd listened to them lol
Nah, these songs hit hard no matter the age, young as old, Well Europe's Final Countdown is a bit overrated, maybe cuz I'm Swedish, and that it's a bit overplayed here compared to other synth classics. But yes, Sweet Dreams is good, however, there's a lot of good covers of it that I like more than the Original.
If you are going to listen to a song for 30-40 years, why on earth would you listen to the cassette version? There's that nasty tape hiss... unless you're using Dolby B noise suppression which nearly always attenuates the high end, unless it's on CRO2 or Metal tape, which most production cassettes weren't released on. To each their own, I guess.

I was fucking waiting for Van Halen's Jump, and you didn't disappoint!
Sweet Dreams was just an added bonus!
Synthesis of Synth-pop, Italo Disco and Eurodance
That's a great idea👍🏻
Bravo, Koji !! Intelligent, talented and serious.
I was waiting for the Axel F song and as soon as I heard it, I immediately loved this video.
Same here
Awesome....we all love this songs... Dope in your version Yes💯👌
Cry for You by September was *absolutely* based on Smalltown Boy by Bronski Beat... we just didn't have the lawyers and algorithms we do back then.
I close my eyes and you transport me to the 80s, you have a time machine in your fingers.
Bravo. Das Model and Computer World from Kraftwerk, Vangelis and Jean Michel Jarre very good synth music too. Thanks!
Oh damn. You've unlocked a memory of mine when you played Smalltown Boy.
I haven't that song since I was kid.
Perfection in every way 💪💪🔥🔥
Beautiful...
Great video!

"Te amo" on paper is so cute!
0:25 That sounded like a bo burnham song
Wow the sound is incredible 🤩
This video is bliss!
Cool! Thanks! 😎
Good as always, Sir.Make a cover fpr Blue Monday by New Order plz if you can.
keep up the good work man
This is AH MAzing!!
I'd include Furtwangler by Fagin's Boys. Now there was a riff-tastic tune. Great. Really great.
Finally someone who knows Depeche Mode!
Would be good if you do Master and Servent and Never Let Me Down again by them
I knew 80s music is a real bop
1:17 The best synth riff ever
Wow
Thank you
Sounds great ! 😍👏
So nostalgic man!!😌
What synth plugin did you use? Its awsome!
Bravo!!!!!❤❤❤;Con Gundam che ti guarda,poi!! Top!!!😊😊😊
I don't recognize the second one, I would have been so annoyed if they didn't put "Jump!" in there so I'm so glad they did! 😃😃😃
This is my music! Nice! ❤️
OMG! This is fantastic! Like, subscribe and into this to my favourites 😃
Arturia always has really good sounding shit!
It's a midi keyboard..

This midi controller has aftertouch. Most of these melodies can be played on 37 keys so why not using a mini midi controller?
Why 80s had the best music
Love it 😻
after getting a laugh from the previous video i find this ine very relaxing and nostalgic
Most Iconic? Absolutely! Like burned in the grey mass in teh head :D
You get like time traveling when you hear them ;)
... good times ... kinda ;)
Koji Kobura for sure💪
Love that deadmau5 funko pop
You missed “I like Chopin”, the most iconic one
We want mooooore 😎😎😎😎👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

OMG Yazoo... I was waiting to see if you would have it in here there is one more I am waiting Oh you forgot "I Ran" By A Flock of Seaguls
Ohayo gozaimasu Kobura san, could you please tell us which plug-in ans patch you were using for each song? Arigato gozaimasu 🙏
Zarpado 🙌🙌🙌🙌
Super 👌
fantástico 👏👏👏👏
Finally
Can we appreciate the HG Grandpa?
Search OA Buddies in youtube...😁
I like Alice Cooper synthesizer sound
No Subdivisions! Huge oversight.
Vol. 2? 😁
I see a G502 in there!
you should definitely do a cover on the synth part of gimme gimme gimme by abba
I legit thought that Don't Go was the Cyber world song from deltarune for a sec
I had a Arturia Keystep 25 since 2019 but I'm to dumb to know what to do with it. So it just sits there on top of my side table and laughs at me.
What's the first sample preset?
Missed Take on Me!
I want to watch Beverly Hills cop now
Eu quero aprender a Tocar teclado...uhuhuhu!
id love a remix with all of these ... but youtube sucks so i doubt it would ever exist.

Millenials weren't around back then so we took the Axel F motive and added "bing bing".
What Synth is that lie what's that type of synth called?

I don't think you said Take on Me enough times
@@HabitatSk8er7198 would also love to see a good one on take on me 👍🏻🎹I will have a look at the one you said👍🏻
That transition between Jump and Sweet Dreams was sooo smooth
there was 0 transition. it abruptly changed (on time) from one to the next. a transition is a blend when both tracks are playing some of the sounds

@@michaelamuchyova the man said nothing wrong
Crazy that three of them are played by the same guy in three diferent bands
Who?
The only person that comes into my mind is Vince Clarke in Depeche Mode and Yazoo. I don’t think he played in any other song in this video.
@@rabomarc you are right. I confused bronski beat whit erasure (that should be in this video in my oppinion)
Vince Clark 🤩
Your ability to recreate these famous riffs with desktop equipment is truly impressive. You not only have the right notes, but also the tones nailed down.
Bronski Beat is seriously underrated.
I wasn't a big fan of their catalog, but that particular song always got me in the feels.
Small town boy was covered sampled like 10 times and every time it was hit
eeeehhhhh i dont think so
Probably the coolest riff on the list!
How can that be “underrated” if these are the most iconic synth riffs?
All of these are before my time, but I knew all of em thanks to my father, and to be honest, they are amazing songs and made me learn the keyboard
Your sense of rhythm and accuracy is astounding 😁😁👍👍.
You should do a cover of a depeche mode song, they have so many iconic songs
I love Depeche Mode
there's literally a cover of "just can't get enough" in the video you're commenting on?
@@soupalex I meant like a full cover
This is impressive!! Axel F and Sweet Dreams are 2 of my favorite songs!
Not a fan of Sweet Dreams but that one impressed me the most.
Depeche Mode is more than music. It’s life.
You could almost say it's new life...? :I
Who? Never heard of them.
@@BenMJay so funny.
Agreed
Actually it's shit
As an 80s kid, I recognized every single one of those. :D
I also recognized them too. As a fellow 80s kid, these riffs are lodged in my brain lol
Every kid born from 80's up to like 2016 recognizes these fellas.
I'm 20 years old and thanks to my mom I can happily say i knew all this classic songs 😌 i really love 80's synth music! 🎵
You are a person of culture :thumbs up:
Is your mom single?
Your mother would be even prouder if you had written "these" instead of "this"
Well thank you for this. Now I'm gonna sit 3 nights figuring out all of the sounds and trying to replicate all of this.

Trop de talents !!!
Cool à écouter mais ça m’énerve à côté on est ridicule ^^
Some proper classic tunes in there. Great one. Now all we need is plugins and settings you used haha 😄
They are all great but Sweet Dreams by the Eurythmics is so alien and unique. Dave Stewart is a another level genius.
My Eurythmics pick would be Who's That Girl?

Anyway what song that synth line came from?I forgot the title of that song I wanna listen
@@gemboyibale9021jump- van halen
👎🏼
I was disappointed that you didn’t play “Flock of seagulls” I ran.It’s such an iconic 80’s track.
To be fair, there are a shit load of iconic 80’s tracks, I’m sure it’s hard to pick which ones to put in the vid
@@edwardhumphries5566 it’s got quite a good synth line as well played by mike although paul’s guitar playing does cancel it out slightly
I remember listening to it in regular show
I never heard of it and I only knew less than half of these
There are only so many songs that can fit in a 2:24 video.

Tbh 80s pop & rock songs were the best
At least i think
That was absolutely spectacular! Keep it up. 👌👏
I can't listen to The Final Countdown without thinking of G.O.B. from Arrested Development.
PLEASE DO BLUE MONDAY BY NEW ORDER PLS
What about Talking Heads' 'This Must Be the Place'?
1:17 listen to "Riton x Oliver Heldens - Turn Me On ft. Vula" it has the same riff, so I think it was sampled, but it's a good song
'Double You' also sampled "Don't Go" in the song "Run to Me", from 1994
Me lembrou Double You
off course its sample
Have to love those iconic synth riffs, underrated piece of equipment! So many sounds from one instrument is a masterpiece.
Sounds are recreated using software: Ableton Live and Serum. 😉
You realize the KeyStep is just a MIDI controller right?
Brings back lots of memories, awesome work 👍
Probably the closest sound to the 80s you will get. The Aturia looks amazing
The sounds are not created on the Arturia though.
Amazing! Which instrument plug-ins did you use to recreate these sounds?
When it's Koji Kobura's video, most of us hit like even before watching the whole video!
