Vangelis - TV Performance at Musical Express (1981)

[tubelib]

I have always loved synthesized music. how does one write the music for synyhesized pieces?

[Sjobeck7]

Lets play name that Synth! I spot a Roland VP-330, a Roland System 100,

a Korg KR-55B and most obviously a Yamaha CS-80... Too bad the picture is so grainy... However the sound is over the top majestic!!! What else was he playing?

Anybody...?

[dmichalczyk]

Wonderful synthesizer music!

[IsKeLeToR]

Genius.

[kz1000ps]

What this guy can do with two hands!.... imagine him with four or five limbs.

[GrandmasDay32]

pure.

[nasplimp]

I know Vangelis will never see this message but I can hope. Here is my message to you. Can we have a 12 CD box set of this kind of stuff? Please?

[studentjohn36]

Actually, I think that Vangelis, at one point in the early 80's had a CS-80, a Jupiter 8, a Prophet 5, a Polymoog and an Oberheim 4-voice.

[vinyljunkie07]

Never saw any one play the CS-80 like him...his music turned me on to electronic music many years ago.

[phane88]

I guess this really is his food and drink

[Jamesrosscooper]

Good Grief - this is absolutely amazing. I've loved Vangelis all my life but to see the guy at work is amazing - he's transported - it's like he's been posessed by a divine or other-worldly force (and I'm an atheist!) GENIUS!!!!!! And I want a CS80 NOW!!!

[magevers]

That was great!

Thanks for posting!

[U5096]

[joncosm]

Yeah, my one and only God : VANGELIS PAPATHANASSIOU

[WakemanFan90]

[retrosound72]

Love the Yamaha CS-80 ringmodulation sounds.

Also used:

Roland System-100 and Sequencer

Roland VP-330 Vocoder Plus

Roland Jupiter-4

[Solaris1992]

creativity, inspiration, spontaneity, feeling through music... in one word, Vangelis.

[HardlineAthiest]

Vangelis is my God. All hail Vangelis, Savoir of humanity, please forgive our sins, Vangelis, oh Vangelis O. Pappathansiou, for you are the Eternal One, you are the God of Man, You are Living Holy Channnel through which All Music emerges from the Chaos of Noise. I hail Thee.

[ondineclaudel]

@HardlineAthiest I will agree with you ...what can God do without  them....???

He needs our awsome genii like Vangelis/Oldfield/JM Jarre/Tangerine Dream if only to glorify human genius

[chestertonnable]

@HardlineAthiest God Is More than the human being because only God Is. The music -wathever it likes you- is a part of the human creature, but it is not a person. Vangelis -like the old greeks- believes the music is like a person. So he´s in deep mistake. Only the persons create up; the outcomes can not creates people.

[CSPlayerDamon]

@chestertonnable We did not create music man..What you said is wrong..Music existed in nature, long before we humans set our feet on earth..

[chestertonnable]

@CSPlayerDamon No. That i said is right. Pantheism is false because The Absolute Personal Be -The Creator of all- Is First.

[fademan]

10000/5 ..... ehhh

i love you vangelis ..

[retrosound72]

[nujazzelectro]

Wow great vid! Vangelis is indeed GOD!

[HardlineAthiest]

You can't make God out of a man, even if you did, a diety cannot be made until the man is dead, besides GOD isnt real, you stupid fucktard.

[theTentative]

absolutely out of this world fantastic. vangelis is my GOD

[kfrausto]

The sequence that starts at about 1:22 is flat out godlike. It makes me think of the future.

[Theotim92]

Vangelis at his best !

Yes it was the best period. Analog synths, warm and cosmic :)

I wish Vangelis could go back to these instruments and make a new geat work.

Digital synths killed the magic of these sounds :(

[CascoProductions]

one of my favourite filmart composers! such a senseful and intelligence as musician and composer, an unique man...with unique and timeless music, fantastic! 5 stars!

[freddy279]

Vangelis è un mostro di bravura e improvvisazione...La sua musica è geniale...Complimenti per il video!

[jaapaap5]

[Solaris1992]

Vangelis es un maestro del sinte Yamaha CS-80. No hay nadie que sepa usarlo tan bien como el.
