Rhodes

This is a nice demo of the classic sound of a Fender Rhodes Mark II.

I think the Rhodes sounds sweet with the small stone phaser.

Here I use the Rhodes with some jazzballad chords. The amplifier isRoland JC-160.

I hope you like it!

This video demonstrates what a Clavia Nord Electro 2 sounds like when you’re wasted.

Good night!(actually it’s funny, that it’s daylight, wenn you guys over sea read this here, while it’s the middle of the night here in Germany ^^ )

Synthtopia regular Torley has been really busy lately, exploring his massive array of software synths and sharing his thoughts on them in his YouTube videos.

Torley’s videos often baffle a few Synthtopia readers, because he doesn’t do formal reviews, but instead tends to open up his virtual instruments and see how the sounds inspire him. Go along for the ride, though, and you’ll find that he makes interesting ideomatic use of the instruments and their sounds.

In this case, he demonstrates not just the bow chicka wow power of Native Instruments’ Elektrik Piano, but also riffs on what Philip Glass might do on a Wurly.

The Sweeps do Found No Way, live.

Massive vintage synthesizer use, lots of Moog leads and Fender Rhodes presence in this live clip from German-based THE SWEEPS.
