Hi everyone

All synths on this track are either Roland JP-08, Roland JU-06 or Roland JX-8P.

Drums from Jiggery Pokery's Kings Of Kong (The Refill I use the most often!)



The JX-8P is my alltime favourite synth. It would have been made in 1984 or 1985. The JP-08 and JU-06 are really nice. There are plenty of folks slamming these synths saying they don't sound like the real Jupiter 8 / Juno 106, they're too small etc and they may be right, but I find them inspiring to use (but just like all hardware synths, the workflow is much slower and more tedious than using Rack Extension synths)

Edit: here is the arrangement:
Orange Tracks are JP-08.
Red Tracks are JU-06.
Grey Tracks are JX-8P.

Thanks Jan!

I do like Blocks (I would even more if you could stack 'em). But even when I don't use them properly (by putting sequences in them), I use them as a visual aid for overall arrangement.

Must go and check out your new track......

Love it!
Makes me want to put on a head band and slap my walkman cassette player and go for a jog.

That's awesome! thanks!

You don't need to go for a jog, you could just go to the gym.....
