Synth Medley Of 80's Hits Played By 90's Youths
By bohus
Looks like someone raided their dad's record collection. This video features "Envelope Generator"; three gents who bob and weave between several keyboards while playing a game of 80's synth musical chairs. It's good to see the youth of today finally come to the same understanding that I have - that the 80's are the last decade when music really mattered. Yes, I'm smirking as I type that.
If you're a connoisseur of keyboards, you'll enjoy the occasional shots of their rig. I'm ecstatic simply at their rocking not one but two vocoders. Also cool is that the medley is not a mega-sequenced nightmare, but mostly a real live performance. Seriously, I admire the alacrity of these guys and I've always said that nothing says lovin' like a vaguely related medley of songs spanning a decade.
Some petty types may point at a few small flubs in the performance, but instead I'd like to embrace the exuberance of youth - both theirs and what I remember of mine (it also reminds me how much I regret selling off my Yamaha SHS-10 that I bought back in high school). Congratulations on a job well done, boys! Thanks to YouTube we don't need to wait until the school talent show at the end of the year for these guys to have a place to show off their chops.
Don't forget that once the video starts playing, an HQ button appears in the lower right so you can enjoy better visual and audio quality.
