RetroSound has some excellent videos on YouTube – got lost there for an hour or so. Thank you for posting – most wonderful!
Retrosound is a great YouTube channel – but I especially like his ambient work on this track.
The falling snow I don’t know about, though.
A JD-800 is great example of a synth with it’s own character- great catch!
Of course the Wavestation SR is also in that number, one of the most unique and enjoyable collectibles in the synth world.
What struck me was the iceberg footage, yes, at one time it would have seemed cliche’ but since we are the last generation to even see icebergs
(“what was the ozone layer Daddy?”) it takes on a whole new meaning.
