*That's awesome man. Hearing this on a great set of OVER-EAR headphones is just... EPIC!* _PS: I think that even though a lot of folks are familiar w/this old instrumental song, they are surprised to find out that it's actually a Kool & The Gang song!_
Doctor Mix, that was awesome! I've always loved "summer madness" by Kool & the Gang. The bass on that song is also amazing - I think it is a Rickenbacker because of the low twangy buzz. Anyway, love your videos. Cheers!
The voice machine of the R2D2 as well. You need to recreate the sound of alien encounter in "Close Encounter Of The Third Kind", the five note theme. :) Modern day digital cameras or cellphone cameras must be handy to save and or distribute the sound patches. Korg should have put a full size keyboard on the synth.
OOHHH, one of my favorite summer songs and you just teased us with a little part of it. Maybe you could, down the road, do a video of the breakdown of the entire song!! Good luck with you show on Saturday!!!
This is the first song that introduced me to the sound of a Rhodes and a synthesizer. If you asked me what my favorite recording/song of all time, it would probably be Summer Madness.
I think its sacrilegious that with a perfect youtube channel such as "DoctorMix" (which I love and adore dearly) about synths and modulators, that not once in all this time I have watched you, you havent done your own take on doctor who theme tune???!!! ;) ♥ Considering its coming to its 60th anniversary in 2023, and was made with basic synths. It would be a nice touch. Yeah, yeah i know copyright and all that jazz but still *sniff* :) :) :) love ya!
Hey Doctor Mix!!!!!! How are you doing? Holy cow!!!!!! That synth sounds A M A Z I N G!!!! No joke!! Its truly beautiful. That is all I can say to you right now. Sam🐺🐺
I have been hoping you would do this song for a couple of years. One of my all time favorite songs. You are an amazing musician and I’m very much inspired by you!
It would be awesome if you could please make a tutorial on how to make the synth lead sound during the bridge for, ‘Talking Heads - Burning Down The House’. The one that’s kind of like a “bow” sound.
Seconded. I've done some digging on that because it's one of my favorite synth sounds too. As far as I could find, it was a Prophet 5 (oscillator sync "on") through a Boss T Wah pedal, but that's all I know. I've gotten it close with my P6, but would love to see it done on this channel!
I'm going to have to try this on my Hydrasynth later! Btw I had a great time at the gig the other night! That flute player was amazing (among many other amazing musicians)
Wow! You just made me want to get an Arp 2600 M. Even though I have the software versions on the Arturia Collection 7 & 8 as well as on the Korg software bundle. Nothing beats hardware. Sliding your fingers around a touch screen is not the same as hardware. I hope your sponsors appreciate your commercial value. Love to come see your gigs in London alas I am in Melbourne Australia taking care of my mother who has advanced dementia. I have thought about sending you a video of my mother jamming on my Jupiter X. Completely freestyle. I have been using music therapy to slow down her mental decay. She is the master of improv. It is so cute watching her facial expressions as you can see, she is in deep thought trying to understand what she is doing. Even though she has no idea what she is doing. Of course I help her out by having the arpeggiator on. Only two years ago I had no instruments, but thanks to my new role as a carer and severe lockdowns due to covid I now have quite a collection. I have always loved music and now I have started ever so slowly to learn. It is clear from the videos I have seen we have a similar taste in music.
Awesome video, doctor. 😎I’m a huge korg fan and this synth sounds phenomenal. I own a korg volca fm and it sounds killer. Especially since you can easily get sega genesis/megadrive type sounds. It’s a keeper.
Sounds very close to the sound Junie Morrison used on his Arp Pro Soloist for Ohio Players' Funky Worm. One of the most famous sounds in funk and hip hop.
Cool to see. I have a Behringer 2600 Blue Marvin, and this is easier on that version because it already has a portamento switch and slider built-in. (sorry Korg XD)
You are 🔥🔥 with this, as always Dr. Mix! The comments seem to suggest you are taking requests for recreating other classic synth sounds😅 Please recreate that classic synth used in Raydio’s “ Jack and Jill” intro! That would be 🔥🔥🔥😉
Thanks for the tutorial! I knew they used an ARP 2600. (Look at UA-cam and dial in Kool & The Gang on Soul Train doing Summer Madness and you’ll see a arp 2600 on stage) Now let’s see if I can do it on the Arturia 2600.😕🎹🎶👍🏾
Very simple sound that any analog or VA synth can do, and simply and clearly explained. Can't go wrong with that. 👍
I was there when summer madness was a big hit, we thought it was from outer space. Thank you for showing in a understandable way how it was done.
I never get tired of that sound :)
And you nailed it!
Oooh, goosebumps on the intro, nice! If anybody had any question as to the sound...it actually sounds better, here in the future. Great work!
I love that you got into all the details, and got it completely right - in a 5 minute video. Dannnng.
All he needs are the Baaars...
Kool & The Gang ROCKS!
Cheers,and enjoy the gig
This ARP was WAAAAY too much fun👍Tony Banks would be impressed....
I'm 20 years old and Summer Madness is one of my favorite tracks. I often get looks from my parents and friends when I play it haha
Happy birthday Dr Mix!!!! Awesome gig!
OMG you clever boy. One of my fave tunes. Well done. Really really cool Doctor.
*That's awesome man. Hearing this on a great set of OVER-EAR headphones is just... EPIC!*
_PS: I think that even though a lot of folks are familiar w/this old instrumental song, they are surprised to find out that it's actually a Kool & The Gang song!_
Not me.
Not me.
Yeah with my headphones on my eardrums were dancing! awesome feeling.
We have a saying in the hood when this jam drops: "Aw sh*t!"
We also have a saying when Doctor Mix drops his knowledge: "AWW SH****T!!!!" 👍🏾👍🏾💯
Love , love, love, this song! Thank you Dr. Mix!
Amazing as usual !!! Thanks for your technique and your communicative joy !!!
Doctor Mix, that was awesome! I've always loved "summer madness" by Kool & the Gang. The bass on that song is also amazing - I think it is a Rickenbacker because of the low twangy buzz. Anyway, love your videos. Cheers!
There's a superb synth solo towards the end of Leon Russell's "Little Hideaway."
The voice machine of the R2D2 as well. You need to recreate the sound of alien encounter in "Close Encounter Of The Third Kind", the five note theme. :) Modern day digital cameras or cellphone cameras must be handy to save and or distribute the sound patches.

I absolutely love this channel. You've got a great energy and passion for synthesizers that's contagious.
Dude, i was literaly looking for a video yo get that synth sound. Thank you so much, great video!
Hearing this in GTA Vice City was so cool.
This is the first song that introduced me to the sound of a Rhodes and a synthesizer. If you asked me what my favorite recording/song of all time, it would probably be Summer Madness.
Ohhhhh i love this sound
Love that song. So relaxing
I think its sacrilegious that with a perfect youtube channel such as "DoctorMix" (which I love and adore dearly) about synths and modulators, that not once in all this time I have watched you, you havent done your own take on doctor who theme tune???!!! ;) ♥ Considering its coming to its 60th anniversary in 2023, and was made with basic synths.

shut up omg
Arghhh, that panning. Was too much in headphones 😵💫
I need one of those 2600's.
Such a sweet machine. 😍
i love the smooth beat, its super mellow.
Good luck with the gig tonight, o revered Dr! Sorry I can’t make it.
Hey Doctor Mix!!!!!!
How are you doing?
Holy cow!!!!!! That synth sounds A M A Z I N G!!!! No joke!!
Its truly beautiful.
That is all I can say to you right now.
Sam🐺🐺
I have been hoping you would do this song for a couple of years. One of my all time favorite songs. You are an amazing musician and I’m very much inspired by you!
Lovely sound. I can think of few 70's detective series that use same kind or similar. Just love classic synth sounds. ❤️
Which ones
@@ocnus1.61 ironside, starsky n hutch.......
One of my favorite tunes of all time... its in Rocky when he goes back to his apartment. Envokes such a cool 1970s urban vibe.
Thank you this is the episode I've been waiting for.
Kool and the Gang does rock!
Thank you for this tutorial. I’ve loved that song since I was a child.
That hardware sound instantly blew me away, so thick...
Love a bit of Summer Madness!
Those oscillators sound so nicely... It seems a wonderful Korg job. I must check with my software emulations...
Summer ! Summer ! Summer Time ! Dj Jazzy Jeff And The Fresh Prince ! Didn't even know this was sampled !
Dr. Mix could operate and fly a spce ship! ;)
That part was originally played by Ronald "Khalis Bayyan" Bell (R.I.P.) of Kool & The Gang, Kool's brother....
Nice tutorial, Dr. Mix!
Thanks for for covering the great, but overlooked "Summer Madness". Great content!
thanks for your smile and hapiness you share !!
Beautiful. Thank You. I have to try and emulate it.
Love that sound. Need to get an analog synth to play with.
You the Man!!!!
Wonderful!! Thank you!🙂
Always cool and funky videos. Thank you Doctor Mix !👍👏🎹
Your the man!!!! much love & respect.
Normally you are not allowed to touch the kings of funk, but exceptionally the Kool & the Gang allow you to, peace.
And what a gig it was, people, you really missed out if you wasn't there!
I really enjoyed this video. Very educational
Thank you Doctor Mix this just made my day Im definitely subscribing
That "kill the noise" drill sound
Rocky!
You made my night with this tutorial! I am now a subscriber.
Was waiting for the bass to come in!
Going to try it on my Minilogue now
...Sorted lol. The hi pass cutoff is white-noisy though
This guy is so cool, i love every video.
Yessssir! Great job!
I have the Arturia Arp-2600, software I will follow your instructions to try to recreate this classic sound.
Thank you for your time, and expertise.
I don't use my Arturia software, but thanks to your tutorial, I will try to figure it out.
What a great sound 🤩✨👏🏻
Summer madness is my dogs favourite tune.
Really nice! Keep it funky!
For your videos it works this way: first, I hit like, then I watch them.
you are going to have a lot of fun on that gig, Claudio^^
Break a leg on your gig! I wish I could make it. I'm sure you will give an epic performance.
Brilliant , thank you that was great ... any chance of some more Korg M1 vid's .. specially on programming & sequencing ...
Fun Fact: 'Summer Madness' was featured in the first Rocky film and was a major influence on Bill Conti's epic anthem, 'Gonna Fly Now' ...
OMGGG just what i needed hahahah love that song

Bro I’ve already liked this and I thought this was my first time hearing you play it lol
Eargasm! Awesome video!

The Arp 2600
Korg 💪 At 2:49 your example sounds like main sound from “PPK - Resurection”… Excellent 👍😎
Bazillion likes in the first 30 seconds!!!
thats FIRE

nice job. always thought it was a mini moog
Claudio i love the Sound… Signor Rossi.🥰 Music By Franco Godi
You are amazing!
memories of gta Vice City!!!
I love this song by Kool & the Gang!!! Some Djs like DJ Quik and Dr. Dre used this synth sound. I hear it in Ice Cube’s old songs too.
THIS IS HOW WE DO IT so many others
You are 🔥🔥 with this, as always Dr. Mix! The comments seem to suggest you are taking requests for recreating other classic synth sounds😅 Please recreate that classic synth used in Raydio’s “ Jack and Jill” intro! That would be 🔥🔥🔥😉
Dj Jazzy J. & the Fresh Prince -Summer Time.
Summer summer time.. ❤️
Hope you upload your gig for those who can't travel all the way to the UK?
good work
Damn Doc, why you gotta flex so hard?
This and others owe their existence to the Moog (pronounced moag) Synthesizer developed by the American engineer Robert Moog, who debuted it in 1964.
When I see this patches I want to put my shoes on and go to the factory 😄😄😄😄 Inspirational horror show right here, haha
Nothing like the 2600! Except maybe Moog System 55 modular.
I wish that Korg would send one of those synthesizers to Putin, so that he would have something better to do…
First let NATO exchange its rockets to Korg synths.
Thanks for the tutorial! I knew they used an ARP 2600. (Look at UA-cam and dial in Kool & The Gang on Soul Train doing Summer Madness and you’ll see a arp 2600 on stage) Now let’s see if I can do it on the Arturia 2600.😕🎹🎶👍🏾
I was today years old when I finally learned what this song was called
