This guy has whole 80s in his room.
His room is trapped in an 80s time warp kind of like Hot Tub Time Machine!
the Safety Dance is fantastic
Your Sirius was absolutely breath taking, especially the guitar solo emulation
💯💯💯💯
it's incredible.
Area 51 sampled it to make the track let it move you. One of my favourite oldskool piano tracks
I wasn't expecting that either! Even the Clavinet was so perfect it never occurred to me that's what it was on the original.
2:49
Half of the magic is not just being able to play these analog babies, but knowing/finding the settings
I graduated high school in 1989. Your music makes me want to go to my next class reunion.
That's so cool. What was high school really like in the 80s? Was it similar to what they show in movies and TV?
‘89 graduate here too! Life was so darn cool in the 80’s!!!!!
@@anibng it really was so cool. I’m so thankful I got to live that life! Carefree for the most part and a lot like it’s depicted on TV!😊
Period songs on period gear.. the way they used to sound! SMJ 23
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'
@@pihermoso11 the only way to accurately play the Blue Danube waltz in sampled barf sounds.
The strings in Final Countdown. He's playing a DX7 Mk II.
@@Roundtablist doh, missed it 🙏
Everyone? Sampling keyboards? DX7 Digital FM synthesis?
Playing two synthesizers at the same time. Hard, hard.
As a keyboarder who has always gotten flack for multiple keyboards, this was pure drool 🤤👏👏👏. Can't love this enough!
And I thought 3 was a lot 😂😂
Excellent covers. Well done. You also look like Marv from Home Alone.
😂
excuse me, they're called the wet bandits
@@othertwishart Aka the sticky bandits
I thought Hyde from 70s show
Bob Rods of synth playing
You are so talented, Luke. I could listen to you all day.
Thank you 🙏
My wife said that’s really some groovy music for today. I would have to agree.
Just for today?
These are classic 80's songs. Forever classic
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!
Agreed, a recreation series would be really awesome to see!
Yeaah, recreating sounds would also be helpful to learn better synthesis
+1
I prefer the mystery, although one day you will slip us and reveal you are actually an android with your preternatural timing, syncopation, etc.
+1 ❤
2:49 I FELT THOSE SOUNDS IN THEIR MAXIMUN EXPRESS. AWESOME!!!
Alan Parsons is absolutely brilliant. He's like a perfect mixture of the Beach Boys and Pink floyd. His latest album is damn good.
I love how well the Grandmother fits in with that group of vintage classics.
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.
"Safety Dance" sounds identical than original in extended version! That's amazing! Other songs sounds good too!
The world needs more Icehouse.
This was a delightful waltz down memory lane...and explains why I still love synths and synthwave music today...
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!
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 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!
When you're sitting on ten's of thousands of dollars in classic synths you do what Luke does. You play the S%#T out of them!
Amen to that brother...
That Multimoog is the workhorse throughout. Solid as a rock!
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
That opening of the buggles seriously gave me chills 😁 perfection my dude
You're amazing! Closed my eyes and felt like I was cruising through an 80's roller coaster ride.
The Buggles interpretation is exquisite. I was counting the seconds until the vocoder came in! Loving your work, @luke. 🙏🏻
To bad the oh-a-oh part wasn't there lol! Great job
I was all FUN! when I saw the video pop up
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 spin me right round baby right round like a record baby right round
Found this dude down a CZcams 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
This guy seems to be having a lot of fun with a lot of historic instruments👍🏆😎
All fantastic but your Safety Dance is supreme.
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 so beautiful to see this recreated, especially for the young people today. Thank you Luke Millions!
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! 😁👌
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 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.
You have the Smithsonian collection of synths! And you actually know how to use them! Thanks you made my year!
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.
Слюньки так и текут 🤣💯💫💯💥💯⚡🤭
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!
Man, your sounds are fucking SPOT ON, good job dude.
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.
So basically this is a GTA: Vice City radio's album appreciation post. Neat, I love it.
Loved every second of it! Great to see these old synths working perfectly!
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.
6:48 on behalf of all Aussies; thank you for including Icehouse
Seeing many of the synthesizers that I only read about back then… very cool. "Oh, so that’s what an X was…"
Really enjoyed that! Thank you 😊 long live the 80’s music
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.
It all stop when you play Video Kill The radio Star :-) and them you gives Sirus
Honestly fantastic performances on booth videos
you spin me round~~
My face : 😯and 😍... Congratulations to your job !!!
Made me sad as now I’m 62 and so miss those fabulous days. Absolutely phenomenal job… Kate Bush’s rendition was 100%. Thanks.
SO MANY MEMORIES POP INTO MY HEAD HEARING THESE 😂😀🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Safety Dance! The Men Without Hats approves! Thank you for posting a phenomenal video like this……sang along to each one!
да супер круто это моя молодость дискотеки-80-х мне такие нравятся голоса робота
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😎😎
Man, you're the best! I was young again and you did it.😁
WAuv i still love that 80s music 👍 from mi days in discotekerne 😢
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”
Like the safety dance 😎😎
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
Wow Kate Bush too. Dude you are wonderful to watch. Please keep it coming.
Your recreations are so perfect. Congratulations you're are an absolut great musician. I love it so much what you do. 🎹👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🎹
2:50 Anyone else yell: "FROM NORTH CAROLINA!! AT GUARD!! 6' 6''! MICHAEEEEL JOOOORDAAAAN!!!
Good, I'm not the only one
Must be the luckiest man on earth. What a fantastic mix of classic synthesisers. Take me back to the 80:s.
Christ that looping hook from Sirius gets me every time.
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!
So much fond memories, Thank You for playing, shows off how old I am now.... but who cares we only live once
I clearly picked the wrong profession. Looks like the most fun ever! Awesome
brings back some happy memories
Yes part 2!!!
Please, please can you do some covers of songs in full. I love these mini covers, but i just want more!
Keep it coming!!!!❤
CZcams doesn't like that and nor should I imagine the original artists.
I can play Fur Elise, very very badly... Awesome synth compilation, brilliant!
That's too much synth porn for an 80's fan, what an awesome collection!
Regarding the music, not a bad job...
Kidding! Awesome sounds and playing, spot on!!
I LOVE THIS!
you are such an extremely talented synth player!!
You should really consider being in a band.
You are so absolutely amazing, I’m also happy to see that you put electric blue by ICEHOUSE in this video
I was in a band called The Swiss but now primarily produce under Luke Million. You can find my music on Spotify, Apple Music etc 😊
All.I could here when you were playing Sirius was the announcer for the Bulls when Jordan was playing
Sweet synth collection.
I remember, playing many of them at my local music store, when I was a kid.
Fun stuff.
Best wishes for your continued success.
Did the same thing! 💯
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!
😁Electric Blue !!! OMG blow my mind I forgot about that song.
Awesome collection of vintage synths! So jealous... :-)
so much fun watching, listening to you having fun. Total FAN!
Analog lives and breathes sonic energy!
Running up that hill 🔥🔥🔥
...Oh! come and rock me Amadeus!
Such underrated channel! Top covers! Thanks man!
so... much... woodgrain...
... I love it!
OMG Safety Dance sounds soooo good !! All the others as well.
All of them were great but that Safety Dance was so spot on!
Love your SUPER SOUNDS very much 😘♥️😋
Back when music was music 🎶 🎵
The Prophet-5 is so lush. I think it’s my favorite synth of the bunch, maybe only second to the OB-X. I mean, “Jump” is forever my favorite synth line!
Of course, there's nothing to stop you from playing "Jump" on a Prophet-5. It might sound a tiny bit different, but it's still "Jump" and it still sounds good. 🙂
Also, Eddie picked the very first preset on the OB-X. It was literally the first thing he had handy, and he turned that sound into a hit song. If he just happened to have had a Prophet-5 handy that day instead of the OB-X, he could easily have made a hit with that as well.
Phuck yes. I had my teenage years in the 80's. I love this video from the first second to the last. I grooved and sang along... goosebumps. And those old parts you have there will always sound awesome, no matter how much high end tech you got to imitate them, only these will sound like the original. 🙏
Id pay good money to see this guy live
Wow, what a collection of classic synths and you can play them. They must have cost a fortune.
The Buggles!!! Takes me back to the moment I watched MTV come on the air.
The final countdown ItaloDisco mix 😂
Very good job!
