  • This is the first take, first time I played it on its entirely after practising section by section only, hence some variations can be found. Gear used:
    Left: Kurzweil PC1x
    Right: Roland JX8P, Emu Emax
    Backtrack previously recorded by me on Pro Tools. All sounds were synthesized and sampled from my own synths, including a Yamaha DX7 II FD for the bell sound (which seems they used for the original track) and a Simmons SDS8 for extra drums.
    Original song composed by Marian Gold, Bernhard Lloyd, Ricky Echolette.
    Performed here by DX5 Jose Maria Bara.

    Absolutely brilliant! This is exactly the kind of music synths were designed for!

      Thanks RetroSound. They influenced me into synths in a huge way since I've heard "Big in Japan" on the radio in 1984

    I only discovered this track early last year on a 1980s retrospective internet radio show called Retro Reflect.
    That persuaded me to request the extended 8-minute mix several times on a UK radio show called The Eighties Time Machine.
    It was broadcast live only four weeks ago, and everyone listening really loved it.
    Great to hear DX5 lending your own version now too.

      The 8 min extended mix is great for realizing some sound design details. I started from that one :)

    Reminds me so much of my 14-15 y.o. ... strange feeling that this song hits me in the guts each time. Very emotional for me. But, if I prefer a less accelerated version than this one, as the original version. No harm intended, you did a brilliant cover anyway.

    • @DX5
      @DX5  Před rokem +2

      Thanks, Gretschgirl, but If I recall correct, tempo matches the original, which has some variations in time. Mine is even a bit slower than it. I will check this more in depth later, though.

      Ellos usaron mucho el Jupiter 8 y Oberheim (Creo que OB-X u 8, no recuerdo bien). El JX-8P tiene una sonoridad parecida en algunos aspectos al 8. El lead no suena 100% igual (faltan unos matices), para así poder usarlo también en los acordes.

      ​@@stoiandaniel0 They indeed used one at least, for the bell sequence in the background (noticeable in the extended version). The lead sound is not a DX7 at all. How do you state they didn't use the JP8 they already got in their gearlist since "Forever Young" period?.
