Wuhu! Freitag wird das 'Edelsteinsommer'-Tape von Kalle Wyrsch released. Durfte schon reinhören. Liebs! Es ist wahrlich ein "document of a strange, uncanny trip to the city of gemstone cutters. The only equipment was a Stylophone and a Casio VL-1 tone Synthesizer." Little proud. Mad the artwork […]
Proof of Concept:
Can the legendary Casio VL-1 sound be recreated on a MOS Technology 8580 SID?
I gave it a try using “Da Da Da” by Trio as the test case. 🎹
That iconic VL-1 preset meets 3 SID channels.
No samples. No emulation. Just pure synthesis.

Eine der hervorragendsten Sternstunden der Deutschen Musikgeschichte, ähne wie Stefan Raabs Wadde hadde dudde da?
Die Texte waren aber gar nicht so doof und mitsingbar find ich, z.B. "Vogel der Nacht"
Zu beachten das Hand-Keyboard Casio VL-1
Trio - Da Da Da ich lieb dich nicht du liebst mich […]
Synth side of things has cleaned up nicely again.

Here's a short compilation of clips taken from my Casio VL-1 video "The Little Synth That Could", where my VL-1 plays some iconic synth lines alongside the original Synth-pop classics!

My Casio VL-1 and MT-65 going through a Casio AS-20 keyboard amp, playing a couple of rounds of Space's 1977 synth disco classic, "Magic Fly"!

CCT impulse buys, repairs, refurbs and reviews a vintage 1985 Casio AS-20 keyboard amplifier, and then tests it with a CZ101, MT-65 and VL-1. It's a surprisingly good little amp!

#mothmemories because nostalgia is one of my core emotions, welcome to this series of flashback posts & archival sentiments. Rewind to 2013/04/09 and head to Cafe Koi’s open mic for an early live performance of my rarely heard song, Tiny Tears: youtu.be/i4rAqf0TUgQ

Work-in-progress. Solo: Stylophone Theremin & the trusty old VL-1. (I played the theremin using the antenna, but pitch-corrected a few notes.)✌️🙂🎹🎶✨

The Chris Cross (Ultravox) auction completed, and his Casio VL-1 sold for GBP 120! I don't think it was used on any Ultravox recordings, but still!

The late & much lamented Chris Cross from synthpop pioneers, Ultravox, had a couple of Casios in his collection! These are up for auction along with many, many other #Ultravox memorabilia items.
