- As a kid I used to listen to Thriller over and over again I was often fascinated by the funny sounds especially on this song. So as a grown up, why not train my ears and try to recreate some of that magic? But as always, there's an extra challenge: as little synths as possible, and if possible, they should be free plugins. I almost managed to do everything just with the free version of Vital, but the funniest sound of all on the chorus needed a good Jupiter-plugin, so I chose my long time favorite TAL J-8 (paid, but affordable).
The rhodes couldn't be synthesized with a simple synth, so I just used Keyscape.
That quacky lead sound on the left was also a pain, couldn't reproduce it as accurately as most other sounds, the original might have been programmed on a Prophet or any other late-70s early-80s synth with hard sync capability.
The original song was written by Rod Temperton and produced by Quincy Jones.
This is a repost, I omitted the iconic drum fill sample from the beginning for copyright reasons, hopefully now the sounds in the video are audible across the globe :)
