      HAHA!! I think you meant, INVALUABLE, not unvaluable! The "un" in a case like this means not - not valuable!

    So beautiful! Love your channel! Used to own a Juno-60 back in the 80s. Your music literally moves me back to when I was 16- something.

    I've listened to this about four times. and I'll be honest this is better than the classic italo and modern italo disco
    what i hear by you, Paolo, is spot on perfect. I hope to purchase an italo album by you soon.

    I was never a fan of Italo Disco but Paolo's skill at playing anything is amazing!

  • @cameronleggett
    @cameronleggett Před 7 lety +4

    I hope you're ready for your channel going bio-hazardously viral... Your channel really is one of the best synth channels of all time. I like that you talk about your sets, but only in a bare facts quick intro fashion... your humility and humanity is what sells you... well that and your musicianship. Don't take it as a insult, as it's not what I intend... but there's also a certain Lawrence Welk or Ed Sullivan like quality that seems completely unintentional but really works when you're presenting information.
    It's like a dream variety show where the synths are the stars.

  • @PAvnH
    @PAvnH Před 2 lety

    Your compositions take me back to those good old days Paolo. CZcams is truly a blessing, allowing people like you to share their creativity with the public. These particular sounds and chords can really put you in a timemachine. In my case remembering the radiostations in my town which gave Italo music a lot of airplay, and besides that the summer holidays I spent in Italy. That was end 70's up to 1983, 84. Great times!

  • @PorchBass

    • @devicefactor2290
      @devicefactor2290 Před 7 lety +2

      Gonzalo Gallardo hes spot on isn't he. but he was a teen-ager in Italy listening to italo disco around that period so it's engraved within him.

    I do retro 80's also with very similar synths. ( I have 16 ancient and newer Roland synths and samplers )And i have 2 old lexicons and roland R-880 reverb which is a monster. Always sound great. Nice job!

    @Ishkur23 Před 7 lety +1

    So here's what you need to do: Get a time machine, go to the 80s, find Baby's Gang and bring them back to do vocals. Bonafide retro gold! This is the stuff time machines were meant for.

    Awesome as always for someone who grew up with Italo disco! Now a question: How do you get the time to play with your awesome collection of 80's toys and make videos virtually every day? And juggle a family on top of that? That skill is probably more interesting than your musical skills! :)

  • @davidevans1420
    @davidevans1420 Před 3 lety

    One of my all time favorite effects units. As a digital delay the PCM 41 and PCM 42 units are undefeated. There is a reason why when you would buy A copy of Mix magazine that it was always one of the pieces found on the front cover in just about every studio. I had a sax player friend that owned and used one in the mid 80's live. Ridiculous sounding and that's why they are currently so expensive. The closest thing I own is the Delta Lab ADM 1024 and ADM 512. Still even the emulation versions of the PCM 41/42 don't compare to the original rack. Thanks for sharing...

    It's so cool watching a piece of equipment from a band I love in use. The band I'm referring to is Moev from Nettwerk Records in the 80s, I know many other bands used this but just off the top of my head that's what I think of

    I never knew the name of this genre until recently, despite growing up as a teenager through this era. Over the past few weeks I have listened to many of your videos and especially LOVE the Italo Disco style. It has a cheekyness about it.
    Side note, I really appreciate your videos, that are gold. Thanks for all that you do.
    My favorite song from this era is Mr Roboto by Styx. How would you categorize that song?
