Michael Hopcroft Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 I'm starting work on a YouTube music channel and an album. But the only instruments I will have at my disposal are my voice and whatever I can do with my PC. Which is why I've been listening to New Wave electro-pop recently -- to see what sort of sound I can reasonably expect when I'm doing something lyrical with the technology. I've been listening to Pet Shop Boys, A-Ha and the film music of John Carpenter to get an idea of the possibilities. When i get my MIDI controller, one of the first things I will do is see what sort of sounds I can produce with what is at my disposal.

Take a look at the Australian band Icehouse - very good synth-pop from that period, went a little harder with some of their later albums.

Take a look at the Australian band Icehouse - very good synth-pop from that period, went a little harder with some of their later albums. Although it's partly orchestral (in the opening,(I can't tell where strings end and synth begins -- which goes to show you how good synths could sound at the time), I found this song very inspirational. It doesn't just describe Neil Tennant's life -- it describes mine to alarming degrees. The video is also beautifully done. Tennant is gay, so you could expect him to appreciate the male form. And the particular person in the video (besides the band) is a gymnast who epitomizes the power and grace humans are capable of in an idealized form.

Ternaugh Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 "Pseudo Silk Kimono" from Marillion's excellent Misplaced Childhood album. I found out yesterday that there's an updated version of the album with a few extra discs of material, and a new 5.1 remix by Steven Wilson. It should arrive on my doorstep tomorrow.

Nolgroth Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 My teeth grinding because Fallout 4 CTD'd on me just after I had an epic battle with two different Raider factions and a Sentry Bot, all the while listening to Papa Roach's Leader of the Broken Hearts. Le sigh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
