[keesvangelis]

brilliant great composittion first i thought what happens here but absolute amazing

[Yesornoization]

Great work, guys. Really special in many ways, and I went in with low or no expectations. Everybody of course has their own associations with music and they're all equally bunk, but for me it's the sound of confronting a self-identity grown so big, it's nearly out of control and empty.

Or, it's like, a stellar nursery.

[RJADVids]

Really nicely done, and what a collection of synths in there. Love the blue rope lights too. How many days I could easily lose in that room!

[paulj0557]

Very satisfying to the ears and excellent stereo and depth while my head hovers just above my laptop on the coffee table, eyes shut. Hey, maybe you or someone out there can direct me to a schematic for a mini( micro?)synth- it was the one that had a single LM324 in it and about 8 knobs and a sensitivity adjust on the side. It was in a black metal 'project box' and it clipped to the rim of a drum. I used to know who made it, but forgot. I modified mine and would love to build one for my kid.

[khanada1969]

Sooooo jelous!! ..love the syths! ..great job guys...enjoyed the sounds :)

[sYnerGyZniGmA]

fun blue lights

[karimnn]

Beautiful, enchanting.

[andyk2138]

Put me in that room and you will need 4 man to get me away :p.

Nice to see good old Quadrasynth doing well between all the analog forces.

Sounds good.

[suus14]

and now in blond english?

[andyk2138]

The Quadrasynth was the first Alesis I owned and the forerunner of my Alesis QS7 (the black one in my set up). All my synths and organ are digital. Iow: pianokeys and buttons in stead of "qwerty" but still a computer. Some of the sytnhs you hear on this film are analog, iow: the sounds are coming from transistors.

[suus14]

thank you..

[makarocket]

Truly what analog synths can really do! this is classic! Thanks again Craig and Skip awesome!

[CheckerSiebels]

So long the best synth- demo on You Tube!!Lovely sounds and a good mixture between digital and analog.

Respect !!

(wish i also owned that great Arp 2600 )

greetings from Germany

[Psiplex]

well done- big respect!

[ianoreilly]

It's like Tangerine Dream meets Jarre!

Great stuff

[bloedworstnl]

It's so nice'' Lovely''

[StrobeLightAgency]

... this makes me fly through time and space ... thanx for the beautiful frequencies and feelings .... wonderful ....

[brwest16]

what's the point of the sync thing in the beginning where he bangs on the esq-1?

[synthwiz]

The "sync thing" is like a slate (or "clacker") used in video/film productions that's used to keep the video footage from all three camera in sync with each other in post production. It makes it easy to line the footage up with each other for editing purposes. It's a "sync point". All three cameras will have that sync sound recorded, and therefore the editor will find that sound on all three cameras and line up the footage accordingly.

[thejonlord]

What editing software are you using to do this?

PS. Nice atmoshperic video!

[synthwiz]

I use an Avid Media Composer workstation.

[honkymonky78]

i'm so jalous. you have the paradise in one room. all these synthesizers of legend. and really nice use of them. i had a dreamy trip...

[anonymusum]

hahaha, let the machines play .......

[Syhedghog]

Exelent gob-smacking outstanding music

already ordered the cd

Simon

[synthwiz]

Thanks for the purchase, Syhedghog. We greatly appreciate your support!

[nvanzoeren]

Really nice job lads!! very impressive.

Please, also check out my LIVE SET VIDEO's

[templemu]

Brilliant, superb live performance - much harder than it looks: to keep it all together and prevent mushiness, synthis require precise orchestration, and you've got it: in the style of Moondawn by Klaus Schulze, especially opening bars!

[Thalassa77]

Hello I've posted this video on switchedonsynthesizer . com

[zark212]

Absoluetly brilliant, The sound of pure space and time coupled with the extacy of analouge.

Played through some ribbon speakers and valve power amps and it was magick.

Thanks guys - KEEP GOING.+

[thelostreef]

OFF THE FUCKING HOOK VIDEO.....thank you so much for this...brilliance at work...peace and respect

[whateverman999]

I absolutely adore this. What a great couple of guys...are they Canadian? Where can I find more music like this?? I agree wholeheartedly with Brainstormer below...this would be GREAT on vinyl! Keep it up, fellas...beautiful stuff.

[synthwiz]

We create music in Northern California, 45 minutes south of Mt. Shasta.

[MrSYSTEM20]

@synthwiz He..know where that is at, I'm orginially from So. Cal. But have been through your neck of the woods many times on my way to the Mt. Shasta Lava caves up near the border..I think just south of Kalamath Falls ( Forgive me if spelled wrong ) Great sounds there, love this kind of ambient music...put headphones on, turn the lights out...oh and don't forget to put the space suit on before I leave the airlock...thanks for the sounds.

[acidchild]

Absolutely wonderful!

[dietfried2]

absolutely fantastic sound. but i cannot figure out from which synth is the evolving background-pad-sound beginning at 2:06?

[synthwiz]

That synth pad is from a Roland U-220.

[Brainstormer2302]

Mmmmm, synth porn! *insert homer drool smiley here*

Would be great to get this on vinyl

[schwanzuskurzus]

yes very nice stuff you made

[jam9workz]

[PHAEDRIDER]
