Wow
Now thats hand independence.
Incredible
Fantastic! I wish I had half that skill!
Over to you Jorden Rudess ;-))
BTW Dawg let’s hear some Goldie style Drum N Bass !
Ps needs more cowbell
VERY impressive.
I don’t often play melody and percussion at once, but when I do, I use a sequencer.
Love the chord progression and cool rhythms in #1 Unwinder, a short ditty but fun packed.
#4 Pteradactyl is pretty fun. A nice lil 6/4 groove.
#5 False Familiarity is amazing! At first, I thought it wasn’t in 4, but then it became clear how the rhythm goes. Very clever and wonderful little piece!!
#8 Leon’s Dream is lovely. Such beautiful chords. #9 Chopanic is just dang impressive.
It’s official. Gil’s a monster.
The tones are all spectacular, except for the drums. Perhaps Gil could find some more interesting and dynamic drum sounds to go along with all his other lovely synth tones.
Alien ?
Really appreciate the post, Synthtopia! Honored to see my video on my favorite website.
Big thanks to everyone who wrote feedback and shared, too!
wow! impressive! Love the track on Soundcloud too!
Thanks for checking it out! 🙂
Nice tone on the Therevox, fits in with the other synths but is definitely unique. Would like to hear it used for bass too, I’ve heard the square waves are sick at ultra low frequencies.
Totally cool.
