Anthony Phillips "1984" album from 1981, on Passport records (same as the Synergy Audion #vinyl I posted yesterday). This is a particularly important album in the stream of electronic music, as the whole album is anchored by a drum machine. And of course, Phillips being the original lead guitarist for #Genesis, bringing some prominence and a complement of instruments you wouldn't expect from a guitarist #ElectronicMusic #ProgRock #ArtRock #synth #synthesizers @synths
plenty of Synths to be heard (polymoog, arp 2600 etc. as to the drum machine used by Phillips, it is the #Roland #cr78 #drummachine. Interestingly enough, another #Genesis member would use it quite a bit also: Phil Collins
Here is my CR-78, which I used on a few tracks, but quite central and prominent on the track "San Francisco" from Test Tones II EP (1998). #electronicmusic #percussions #drums
“Test Tones II” uses human and robotic voices (a la Speak’n’Spell) and American cities as a theme. It was the first of the Test Tones series EP I recorded in the US. This was recorded early in 1998 in
I own both this album and a synergy album. 1984 is a personal favorite of mine with Phillips keyboard playing being pretty amazing anchoring very melodically interesting compositions. It takes a fair amount to keep my interest over a full albums length of purely instrument music but this more than does it. #progrock #synth #anthonyphillips
