Synthesist Pontus Hagberg, aka Firechild, shared his take on the theme from Das Boot, arranged for Moog Model 15 modular synthesizer.
Here’s what he has to say about the details:
This track is using the Moog Model 15 modular re-issue for all sounds. Main theme is an interpretation of the Das Boot theme by Klaus Doldinger (1981). Additional composition and production by www.firechild.se.
The track is called The Boat Interpretation and can be found on the Firechild album Reborn (2019).
Hey, he’s playing it with a CME Xkey!! We really need more poly pressure keyboards!!
(Though I wish I had the OB-6 which he is also using as a controller apparently.)
Firechild seems to get a lot of flak on synthtopia, but I always enjoy his music. Like many of his demo tracks, this one is nice since it uses a single instrument.
Nice work!
