  • All credit to the members of The Cure for crafting such a cool and unique song, thank you guys!
    I haven't done a Cure song in awhile, and this was always a fun one to play live (well, they ALL are, but still :-). I remember being really happy when I actually made sounds that sounded like the weird detuned brass and the eerie vibrato whistle -- they're pretty unique sounds that they used and I wasn't sure if I'd be able to get close or not using my Triton.
    Before today I last played this song I think about 10 years ago, in my Cure tribute band's final show, Fascination Street. It was fun to load the floppy up and hear the sounds again.
    If you're playing along at home, you'll notice I had to change the tuning of the pad sound at the bottom of the keyboard; I think it's 4 half steps up. The parts wouldn't all fit on the keyboard otherwise. Sometimes I wish I got the 76 key version, but I usually find a way to make the 61 work :-). Thanks for watching, and keep playing!

    Hi - are you using sounds from a purchased soundbank for all these 80s hits or editing on the Triton yourself - sounding great !

    • @galtem
      @galtem  Рік тому +2

      Thank you! They're all internal sound combinations from the Triton.

      Thank you :-) Sorry, no, we never played that one. I've been wanting to do A Letter to Elise though; the keys were really pretty in that one, and we didn't play it very often. But we knew that one plus High, Edge of the Deep Green Sea, and Friday I'm in Love from that album.

    The main synth riff is deceptively easy (didn't Lol write it?). The piano bit is deceptively hard (I'm guessing Robert?)

    • @galtem
      @galtem  3 роки тому +2

      yeah, I've got no idea who wrote what parts - The Cure's synth parts in general are pretty simple, same with the guitar parts actually -- it's all about the layers and effects. To me that's part of their genius; anybody can write something bizarre, but it's tough to write something new AND simple AND catchy, and they've managed to for decades. :-)

      @@galtem Yeah The Lovecats for example is literally just going up and down the keys. But like you say the songs are so catchy and that's what makes them genius.

    how are you changing programs so seamlessly ?

    • @galtem
      @galtem  3 роки тому +3

      Magic :-) Just kidding -- i split the keyboard up into sections, then program the sounds i want in those sections; so I'm not switching between sounds, they are already there.
