Always wanted a Mini Moog. Had a Yamaha DX21 and Casio CZ3000 before I gave up being a nerd and discovered bikes 😛
Had a Juno6, FB-01, MT-32,MKS-7. Looking at my D-50 right now.
Always wanted a Juno . . . maybe one day when I've tried enough bikes 😕
Tangerine dream, damn I had forgotten about them! (burps gently and raises half full glass of Cairngorm Wildcat to DS)
*Ching*
From around the same time, mid '70s!!!
Three tracks from one of the best things about the UK, Warp Records 🙂

Thread closed!
Hhmmmm maybe not closed just yet....
This ones a cracker too - GOD I FEEL OLD!!!
Nice one JAG....to both of them 🙂
OMG I can't stop now!
Boards of Canada are one of the best things ever. Warm and comfy, scarey and sinister all at the same time.
Allways loved Yazoo and Howard Jones numbers...
Just spotted this thread, and by a strange and spooky coincidence I'm listening to Tangerine Dream's [i]Ricochet[/i], for the first time in ages. Synchronicity, huh?
Harry - how did we all forget Two Tribes!
I remember staying up until 01:00 to see the first play of the video on The Tube (I think it was).

I videoed that and kept it for years.
Checked thread twice and, top tunes notwithstanding, am amazed to have not seen
More great stuff from Yazoo...
once i ran to you..
and how could we forget...
A little bit of early Vince Clark
Do I win with this offering?
Howard Jones, Stevie Wonder, Herbie Hancock and Thomas Dolby all jamming together
Excellent stuff.....
oh dear, on an 80's roll
everything counts...
Oooh yes, Herbie Hancock 8)
Does anyone know if this was Jean Michelle Jarre before he was famous?
Harry beat me to it with Art of Noise and Yello
But this is ace, long, and the best bit isn't the synth stuff its the piano from 7:40 on
and heres a bit of older Yello
The thread is incomplete without this!
I also feel that the Moog needs some representation here:
Got in there before me Simon, I'm just listening to this...
Bit dark and moody but a classic plinky plonk synth pop tune
No Japan yet?
In that case.
More synths from bands with Futurist inspired names
Goofy girl does driving test in Volvo 240 saloon.
French sex icon's sadly unsuccessful eurovision entry. I forget who it was off here who recommended Sebatien Tellier, but thanks, he's ace! 😀
And one a fair bit newer that not many of you might know...
Absolute F***ing tune!!! I wanna go out party now... 😳
The synthtastic LCD Soundsystem need some representation
Hows about a bit of Sigue Sigue Sputnik
Biggest Synth Driven Dance Tune of all time?
Bit of Spaced Invader anyone?
Bit o' Divine.
Blimey. There's an awful lot of eighties stuff in this thread. There's been some great synth music created since then. I wish BOC would make some more.
Having said that here's a couple of forerunners of the synthesizer.
Adamski and a performing Seal.....
Great thread folks, some of you are really showin your age and quality music choice. Is anyone going to mention Can of even Klaus Nomi? Love early 70's electronic music.
Biggest Synth Driven Dance Tune of all time?
Or is it
Linen suited and espadrille wearing coppers, anyone.....
Just reminded me of this one . . .
Top call MamaD - that's been 'on the tip of my tongue' all night, just could not recall who / tune!! 🙂
The Normal, Warm leatherette.
The mighty Frank Tovey
Love it or hate it, this was MASSIVE!
Awesome tune there too mamadirt... Just the first few beats and now I want to go and watch Beverley Hills Cop again! haha
That Laurent Garnier tune is blinding 🙂
Almost time for bed - Elecrtric Dreams anyone...
Good thread – loving the contributions particularly those relating to Depeche Mode, FGtH & Yazoo.
Headhunter - Front2424
Erasure - The Circus
<Tips hat to JulianWilson>
Since you already got in there with Divine
That Laurent Garnier tune is blinding
Good ain't it! Amazing to think it's more than 14 years old now too!
Here's another from Laurent himself...
The Man With The Red Face... Awesome synths in it, but most famous for being "that Sax track"... Remember hearing this live for the first time, back in 2000 at Summer Sound System, Sasha on the decks at the time. The place erupted!
Great thread folks, some of you are really showin your age and quality music choice.
