This is Part Four of a multi-part series of my music from the early to mid-1980s. I found an old cassette tape of mine and digitized it so I can share where my synth journey began. On this particular song from 1984 when I was 20 years old, I recorded my Sequential Circuits Prophet 600, Ensoniq Mirage, and Roland TR-909 directly into a Clarion XD5 4-Track Cassette Recorder. My cheesy vocals were sung through a $20 Radio Shack microphone which was plugged into a Boss Chorus and Reverb pedals. The sound is degraded quite a bit due to bouncing the first three tracks down to the fourth so I can add additional tracks on the first two or three channels... that, and also, this tape has been sitting around for over 40 years!
The full playlist of 19 demos from back then are on my SoundCloud here -
