In 1973, Pink Floyd released "The Dark Side of the Moon", one of the most influential albums of all time. The track “On the Run” is famous for its use of the Synthi AKS, a classic London-made analog synthesizer by EMS (Electronic Music Studios).

Today I’d like to show you how to recreate the iconic sequence of that track on an EMS Synthi A, then show how to program it on a Moog Mother-32, and finally how to patch it in a Eurorack system.
