lumpenprol Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Anyone else notice that some of the Old Tunes Vol 1 tracks have a very unique synth sound? It sounds massive, distorted and raw, as if it was recorded in a cathedral or some other wide open space. Is this the sound of BoC's "secret weapon" synth? I don't remember hearing it as pronounced on any of their other albums. For reference, see: Track 8, side a Track 13, side a Track 16, side b It's such a fantastic sound, reminds me of that vintage synth that guy refurbished that somebody linked to a few months ago. I think I could listen to a whole album of this stuff - enveloping, vibrating, sinister synth with drums underneath. Lovely.

FUCK That's the worst thing i've ever eaten. The flesh simply doesn't cleave to the bones. Battery ferming. And then, foie gras is banned from NY state, because it's considered as ill-treat. IT'S NOT. KFC is tourist ill-treat. YOU POISONERS! Two hours after being to KFC, i stopped in a amsih little town barf all that KFC shit out. Nice work! So i hope this woman is not like kfc chicken, otherwise she'll be pulled to pieces. -organized confused project Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/8682-that-old-tunes-vol-1-synth-sound/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest i.boc'd.ur.mom Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 Speaking of old tunes synths... here's my lame remake of the synth from side b track 1. *applause* 'Tis fun to play with. Seriously, the synth from that song.. I could listen to it for hours. HOURS. How the fuck could I like a song so much I don't know, but if there was a gun pointed at my head i would be smiling with that song playing. And yes, the synth you're talking about is great too. All of the old tunes are so fucking great, I don't know what's keeping them from releasing them.

The source synth could be anything (or just the usual SH101) but the effect is overdrive/distortion.
