This guy has whole 80s in his room.

the Safety Dance is fantastic

Half of the magic is not just being able to play these analog babies, but knowing/finding the settings

Your Sirius was absolutely breath taking, especially the guitar solo emulation

10 minutes of iconic 80’s synth arrangements without a single DX7 or any FM digital sounds. Who would guess it was possible?

Yeah the DX7 and Roland D50 basically shaped the 80s keyboard sound, everybody used the DX7 and Enya used the D50 quite extensively.. I'm impressed by the EMU Emulator II, when it came out it was as expensive as a car, but that keyboard just produces a full luscious sound even modern gear will have a hard time replicating, floppy disks FTW, that keyboard was also featured in the movie 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off'

I was all FUN! when I saw the video pop up

This is always relevant music, to which more than one generation will dance. As long as electronic music is alive, styles from the 80s will keep pace with electronic music.

I love how well the Grandmother fits in with that group of vintage classics.

I was in synth heaven listening to this, and appreciating all the music that was created with these fabulous instruments. 100% ear candy! The one that resonated most - Kate Bush’s Running up the hill. A stellar piece of work, on an album that still blows me away all these years later. Great job on this video!

your sounds are just spot on. I hope you will consider making a video or series on how you are either finding the settings or working through each synth settings to recreate them. it's incredible!

Something about the synthwave era i enjoy alot. Gives a sense of nostalgic calming feel, even though i was born on 1990 still feel connected to this type of music

I always wonder how people feel when they watch my covers. I sincerely hope it’s at least half as good as I feel right now. Great work Luke. Thanks. 😎

This was a delightful waltz down memory lane...and explains why I still love synths and synthwave music today...

Found this dude down a KZread rabbit hole. He is just amazing! So are his many machines! He makes them sing!

Just love this ❤ I could sit in the corner and listen you play all night

You are phenomenal, I wish I could play like you. Have thought for years about learning to play the piano so I could get a keyboard and start learning to play all the songs I love from the 80's, to which as far as i'm concerned was the best era for music. Watching your video's gave me the inspiration to go for it and have since started lessons. Thank you Luke for being the inspiration to get me started on my journey.

That opening of the buggles seriously gave me chills 😁 perfection my dude

So basically this is a GTA: Vice City radio's album appreciation post. Neat, I love it.

Alan Parsons is absolutely brilliant. He's like a perfect mixture of the Beach Boys and Pink floyd. His latest album is damn good.

My wife said that’s really some groovy music for today. I would have to agree.

This guy seems to be having a lot of fun with a lot of historic instruments👍🏆😎

Really enjoyed that! Thank you 😊 long live the 80’s music

It all stop when you play Video Kill The radio Star :-) and them you gives Sirus Honestly fantastic performances on booth videos

"Safety Dance" sounds identical than original in extended version! That's amazing! Other songs sounds good too!

This was so beautiful to see this recreated, especially for the young people today. Thank you Luke Millions!

As a keyboarder who has always gotten flack for multiple keyboards, this was pure drool 🤤👏👏👏. Can't love this enough!

Amen to that brother...

I had a nightly radio program in mid-80's in Aarhus, Denmark, and we used "Sirius" as a count-in for the welcome speak: "Velkommen til Dødsredaktionen"... Ah, nostalgia!

I love Safety Dance 🤗 but that just makes me want me to hear 'Big in Japan' 💋

Great stuff - enjoyed all of those. The Kate Bush one was fascinating. Seeing it as a backing track it becomes apparent, once the intro is over, how much of that song's charm and power comes from Kate herself - it's very minimal, instrumentally speaking, on the verses.

Analog lives and breathes sonic energy!

LOVE starting my days off listening to his work! How you not smile and have a great day after listening to this? Keep it up! Incredible! 😁👌

Seeing many of the synthesizers that I only read about back then… very cool. "Oh, so that’s what an X was…"

Excellent covers. Well done. You also look like Marv from Home Alone.

they are totally underrated, compared to a mini multi has a more modern edgy charachter, more modulation possibilites but can deliver same bass duty as the mini, also you can get them for a 1/3 of the price of the mini

Love that Emulator. Those were so expensive back in the mid 80's...

The drum machine used in You Spin Me Round (Like A Record) was a Linn LM-1 Drum Computer. It was also used in Safety Dance, Thriller, and Relax.

Christ that looping hook from Sirius gets me every time.

Loved every second of it! Great to see these old synths working perfectly!

Слюньки так и текут 🤣💯💫💯💥💯⚡🤭

So much fond memories, Thank You for playing, shows off how old I am now.... but who cares we only live once

да супер круто это моя молодость дискотеки-80-х мне такие нравятся голоса робота

Aww yeah. Was jamming along to all of these. Great work 👏 Falco was of course my favourite 😍 The compulsion to immediately listen to Alan Parsons Project music is strong!

You have the Smithsonian collection of synths! And you actually know how to use them! Thanks you made my year!

All of them were great but that Safety Dance was so spot on!

Made me sad as now I’m 62 and so miss those fabulous days. Absolutely phenomenal job… Kate Bush’s rendition was 100%. Thanks.

This is the kind of sound I aspire to. Thank you SO much for bringing these classics to life with such classic instruments. It makes the music much more exiting!

Wow Kate Bush too. Dude you are wonderful to watch. Please keep it coming.

Man, your sounds are fucking SPOT ON, good job dude.

Must be the luckiest man on earth. What a fantastic mix of classic synthesisers. Take me back to the 80:s.

One more comment - love the guitar solo emulation on the Alan Parsons “Sirius” ! I just flipped over to listen to the “real thing” on Spotify - nice “Jan Hammer” type work on that solo with the use of the bend and mod wheels!

Man, you're the best! I was young again and you did it.😁

Loved every minute, I wish I could have a few beers and listen to you play live You have immense talent my friend from a massive uk 80s fan

I could listen to this all day! So talented 💙

Safety Dance! The Men Without Hats approves! Thank you for posting a phenomenal video like this……sang along to each one!

All those years of watching Micheal Jordan and all the NBA games and I never knew the song they would play all the time is “ Sirius”

I once had a friends Moog Micro in my primarily digital recording studio for a "repair". It took me 6 weeks to "repair" it as it was a particularly difficult (really quick and easy 😉 ) fix, It did however end up on several tracks we were working on at the time 😁 Obviously I did not charge for the repairs😎😎

I've watched this video several times. I love how you took "Final Countdown " and approached it from a "New Wave" stanpoint. I like your version much better!

All.I could here when you were playing Sirius was the announcer for the Bulls when Jordan was playing

Great job. Sirius is especially perfect!

so much fun watching, listening to you having fun. Total FAN!

The final countdown ItaloDisco mix 😂 Very good job!

Your recreations are so perfect. Congratulations you're are an absolut great musician. I love it so much what you do. 🎹👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🎹

Love your SUPER SOUNDS very much 😘♥️😋

The Buggles!!! Takes me back to the moment I watched MTV come on the air.

Awesome collection of vintage synths! So jealous... :-)

Anyone with this amount of passion must be blessed... you are a lucky man in many ways. And i have subscribed because you are the " The dogs Bo-lok- "

So good to see how these tracks are layered, it's quite great to see that insight. Highlight of youtube at the moment for me when your videos drop.

Music is an art form

😁Electric Blue !!! OMG blow my mind I forgot about that song.

What an amazing collection of keyboards. And even more amazing - the talent to get the best out of them collectively in some amazing recreations. So well done.

When you play Sirius I can’t help but hear in my head And now the starting line up for your Chicago bulls… from North Carolina, Michael Jordan

Falco, Icehouse and Kate Bush. Pretty cool stuff!
