You can't have 80's synthetic without Max Headroom

Man, those orchestra hits take me back!

...and speaking of...this is a fantastic video examining the history of the orchestra hit and its massive influence on 80's and 90's hip hop.

Glad you enjoyed it. All of those Vox Earworm videos are really great and educational.

here's a fun synthy bop if you've got like 8 minutes to burn
fun fact: like 3 weeks ago i was ironing clothes in the basement listening to this bop and Mrs. FD came halfway down the stairs and was like, "FD? You doing some Silence of the Lambs stuff down here?"

mocat · « **Reply #187 on:** January 20, 2022, 01:51:41 PM »

that's one of my favorite NO songs, fd

I kind of forgot all about the Paul McCartney/Michael Jackson collabs in the early 80's

That was no dream, friend. You actually listened to the 80s bop "Pressure" off the Nylon Curtain.

it is! i also think luda did the echoing/repeating vocal pattern as maybe a nod to Movin' Out (also by billy joel). two billy joel nods in one Ludacris song?! wow!
