Crack on a beer, Sitting on the sofa, Do not disturb for any reason: The new Adam Vox video is on! 😊 Man, you nailed it! Thank you for the video "on request", I really appreciated. 🙏 I wish I had a Roland Juno and a volca drums, but I'm sure I'll manage to do a cover version of this tune out of my gear. Be prepared...! 😂 You showed once again not only to have a huge knowledge of electronic music and theory, but also to be the great Volca sensei. Great job! This track gives really good vibes, and the vocal part really surprised me! Ps: it's only me thinking that the lead sound you made out of the Keys sounds like the Moog used by Jeanne Michelle Jarre in Oxygene? 🤔

Thanks for the comment!😃 Looking forward to hear if you do a version! 👍There are some similarities in how the volca keys and moog shapes it sounds, so it is not impossible.
Thank you very much, Adam! I will try to recreate your song with my equipment. I don't have a Juno alpha, but I have the Aira J-6, so It Will be an all-micro-synths Synthwave!😅

Cool! 😊
Brilliant! I found my α Juno 1 on the side of a street in Brooklyn, under a heap of leaves and after a heavy rain in the fall. Still works perfectly.

Right! I didn't think of that... The Fmaj to D#maj just felt right for this track. Happy it worked! 😊
Awesome Adam! I love it! Great job on the vocals. It took me back... And, Dude, V was my favorite show in the day! I love that you referenced that. 😀

Nailed it. Thats synthwave,. Almost darkwave, which is even more 80's. I liked you used the volca drum. Not many do. I think it's the most underrated of the volcas. especially for those that like do sound design on the droms. Also the korg electribe is great for synthwave.

Thanks! Yes, a Electribe original is definitely on my want to have list!
Obligatory plug for 2D Cat. They make some excellent synthwave.

Awesome, thank you for another fun lesson and jam! Can you recommend a good budget synth that does strings well?

I'll explore some alternatives in my next video. Probably the roland j-6 is an option, but I haven't tried that one yet.

This is my favorite episode so far. Excellent work! If you're up for more requests, how about mid-to-late 80's synthpop like Camouflage kzread.info/dash/bejne/nWqnk4-cka64pLQ.html

Thanks! Well, I have called this new season "More Music!", since I plan to go a bit outside of my comfort zone of 90s EDM music and explore new expresions. Maybe I will have the courage do to 80s synthpop, as long as I feel I can give the genre justice! 😅
