Vangelis "Spiral" cover

"Juno 6 and 106 hard at work here! Just some background info for this cover version. Because I needed almost every sound to come from the analogue juno 6 which does not have patch memory and impossible to sync the arpeggiator clock to the ESQ sequencer, I had to make the track in 2 stages. First, I recorded the Juno 6 alone in the arp. part the whole way through, manually adjusting the PWM and envelope through the chords. Then played it back through the mixer while adding some percussion and bringing in the 106 for the sequenced bass and try and sync the 2 tracks . This time I was adjusting the juno6's parameters in real time to flick between the slow attack chords and fast attack melodyline. It sounds too heavy in the melodyline I know, I just wish I had 3 or 4 more Junos in my setup to assign each one for the different patches. So as you see some of the music and video sometimes sounds out of sync, it was the only way i could do it. This was one of those times I would love a huge studio with real drums and percussion instruments and just go crazy lol! Also thanks to my 9 year old daughter Hannah who did the video, she's getting pretty handy with the camera!"
