This guy can never bore himself.He's his own Juke Box.
That rendition of Clio’s ‘Faces’ gave me goosebumps! Superb.
It's a crime these videos don't have millions of views. Serious business.
I get it, but it also nice to have a secret place full of joy that not many people know about.
well agreed, with equal or greater talent
success is reserved for some
I swear Luke Million makes the absolute most out of these vintage instruments. I can't decide what I like more about his videos, the sounds or the skills!!!
The whole package! Can’t believe I’ve only recently found this
Does anyone not being a ”synth nerd” actually understand how brilliant this is?!!! You and I would probably been friends at school in the 80`s. Playing 8 bit arcade games, doing some code (peek/poke) on the C:64, and the moment after fideling on some synths. Just as today recreating the hits of the 80’s. Impressive collection of vintage gear, and lots of respect to see you know what synth to go for certain original sound. Pure joy to watch and listen to your videos!
Yes! Poke 53280,0-16 and 53281 sys 4096 and 54296,1-15 for the volume. Never forget!
Or jamming out with Ryo Kawasaki's Synth and Rhythm Rocker! What a great collection you have put together here!!!
I'm a bass player. This shit rox!
I had a D50, so no, but i still have the sounds in my head.
I’m a 68 year old semi-retired sax player. I owned a Juno-60, Ensoniq sampler, Roland and Alesis drum machines and few other Roland synths over the years and back in the day. I ran a studio for a few of those years. I just discovered this channel a few days ago. Unbelievable talent and collection here. Much respect and so much fun to listen and watch. PS I still have some the gear if anyone is interested.

You are such a an altruist ! Thank you Fhantom99 👍
Great sound, best studio, love the way you play those hits🎹🎹🎧🎶
Thank you
Thank you!
dude, thanks
I was a d.j. in the early 80's and still have most of these songs on 12" singles. YOU'RE A BAD-ASS!
Thank you.
I truly believe the reason this doesn’t have more likes is because people are totally mesmerized by the sound and just forget to do it.
I just found this video again and before It even played I hit the like button;
Accidentally undo-ing the like I'd given it when I originally found it lol! (I re-liked immediately no worries)
Why the hell can't we make music like this today? Love your work Luke
Well check out synthwave/retrowave. Lots of 80s style synth music
Because the so called artists nowadays are 💩
@@epstone
Nah it lacks something. It'd hard to beat the drums machines being used back them like the Linndrum and 808. DMX
@@fender1000100quite a few artists use these drum machines.
Because the music industry believes all we want is Twerking Music 🥺😭😭😭
Cover of "Situation" is so spot on. Love it
Wow, I know "Come On Closer", "Another Life", "Situation", "Plastic Doll", and "Hey Hey Guy" when I hear them...those synth lines are too classic to forget...awesome job, man...👍🏿😎🎶🎵🎧
Thank you :)
Still ”hey hey guy” is one of the best ❤️
Disco.
Great.
For years I have searched for someone to recreate those sounds.
Bravo, bravo, bravo maestro...!!!
Your live arpeggios are laser precise but your baselines on the moog are layback funky so are your live melodies. This makes your versions more human and funky and live than many of the originals. As all people we sigh a regret when the famous key slide marks the end of each sampled treat of this candybox. Just fantastic 👍👍👍👍👍👍👌
Boah, fühle mich voll in meine Jugend zurückversetzt. Echt klasse. Danke für das Erlebnis
Your finges are gold...
Ahhh, 1:58 brings me back to my college days (Kano - Another Life). Oh wait, so does 3:05 (Ken Laszlo - hey hey guy!) "Let me know what happens here tonight"
4:00 - Doctor's Cat - "You must feel the drive! (Get into the strive!)"
6:02 I never considered Yaz part of this genre, though the era was the same. Awesome tune. (Situation)
8:05 Oh, it's Paul Parker (Right on target)!!
OK, pretty much this whole thing has brought me back to my college days. Here in Southern California, this was not popular music, but my Vietnamese and Chinese friends shared Modern Talking, Gazebo, Fancy, Lian Ross, Joy, Miko Mission, and all the rest with me. Thank goodness!
Nice recreations! Thanks for making these. :)
Quanto emozione a sentire questi memorabili e storici struenti che hanno fatto la meravigliosa musica degli anni 80. Mi viene la pelle d'oca. Un complimento al bravissimo tastierista. ❤️🎹🎻
Me as a Black guy, gives you Soul Man award of ALL TIME!!!!
ARP Odyssey sounds WOW!!!
Amazing fantastic and astonishing performance.
You probably don't know him, but you are forgetting about one of the most fantastic performers of 80s music in Italy, Sandy Marton!
You are one of the most talented dudes on the planet, I love your work!
I was searching for Hey Hey Guy for ages, and finally founf it during the lockdown.
I kept searching songs with phone ringing dial tone in them to no avail.
Then I typed in Hey Hey Guy and Hey Presto!
I forgot the title but longly searched this music...Then what a good surprise to find it here!... I was about 15 years old when it appeared on the radio in France 💜🙏
So damn close to the originals. WOW!
Очень наглядно и аутентично! Приятно увидеть и услышать легендарные синтезаторы в умелых руках мастера! Спасибо, Luke!
Sir, You just blown my ears and put me in a trance, Bringing a lot of my childhood memories pulling my tears out. Totally awesome!!! If you play in Mexico City at Patrick Miller place. You will have alot of guys begging for more of your music, that for sure. We call it High Energy Music instead of Italo Music. I just was looking for a Kano tutorial and you pop it out on my screen make me spend two hours last nigth and a soon I wake up this morning I put your chanel again. I wish to play like you, but sadly I just bougth my keybord last week at my 47 years old.!!!!!!!! You are a great MUSICIAN!!!
Dude your Faces cover ripped my face clean off!
Excellent work.....Hey Hey Guy is so cool!!
fantastic covers of Right on Target y Don't Stop from Patrick Cowley. Congratulation Luke!
all of these sound even better and fatter than the originals
got me goosebumps
just amazing...real music created until 80s. after that all destroyed.....
OMG!!!! I Love IT!!!!! I grew up with all these Italo tracks. My favorite Ken Lazlo Hey Hey Guy and Dr Cat feel the drive tracks! Excellent recreations!
That whole genre has been for the most part mocked and underestimated for too long. Absolute gems found throughout the years and let’s never forget that Dirty Talk by Klein & MBO might be one of the major inspirations to what will become house music. Thank you Luke for this really cool video. I’ve been playing many of your productions in my gigs. 🙌🏻🙏🏻
why you don't have millions of subs ... escapes me!! love this. MORE ITALO!
Two lost and found treasures... Another life and Plasic doll. I did not know their titles so it's been 35 years without hearing them! Thanks x1000. Very good interpretation btw.
Love your Kano - Another Life and Doctor's Cat - Feel the drive versions. Wow! We want more italo, yeah!! 👍👏
Never knew of Italo Disco, but one of your shorts caught my ears and here we are. I know what the vibe for today is now, thank you 🕺🕺
Strictly speaking several of these are not Italo but every one is a classic! Ashamed to say I'd never heard of Kano but have now and boy did they influence some later major artists!!
Hi Luke,
Superb performance, your analog synths shows their real potential how classic Italo Disco should sound.
I love Italo Disco from my school days. Thank you so much for showing how it was created. You are Great......
such a talent. incredible perfomance.
This is beyond talent those sounds are awesome the bass in that song at 5:12 is unreal so cool
Wow, you are exceptionally talented to be able to recreate all of this music by ear. I'm simply left speechless by your raw, unadulterated talent sir. Thank you for sharing your work with this mere mortal listener! Fred
This is so exceptionally good. Such utterly magnificent recreation of the electronic music I love. Thank you, THANK you.
This is amazing! I too love Italo! Try these; I Need Love-Capricorn, Visitors-Koto, Spacer Woman-Charlie, Passion or Calling All Boys-The Flirts, I'm So Hot For You-Bobby O, Remember-Gino Soccio, Colour My Love or Happy Station-Fun Fun, Angel Eyes-Lime, Do What You Wanna Do-The Cage.
I have to say MY Godddd ... You soooooo gooddddd...
Great Synths, great Sounds and wonderful Italo Hits ! Give me more, more from the golden 80's Era.
Very Impressive Demo Of Synthesizers and Covers of Past Italo Disco Songs/Music
i would love to hear italo discos cousin, 80s latin freestyle remade like this! this is AMAZING! so glad i found your channel!
Absolut brilliant!bravo!👏👌😍goosebump everywhere!👌🎩many thx from germany!
Stunning!
Brilliant!
Absolute incredible talent!
Wonderful, absolutely
From all your videos I always get the same feeling, besides the enjoyment and admiration, which it is: What a great bass synth the Multimoog it is!!!! Could you do some day a tiny tutorial how you get one or two different sounds for your basses?
Thank you!!
Yes yes yes, Please, would you be so kind to show us how you get those lovely bass sounds from the MultiMoog, they're just perfect. No matter how deep into the night we are, your videos are always bright and uplifting, Thank You
Luke, you are living the synth fantasy for the rest of us! Thank you so much for sharing!
Brilliant comment
.most of us cannot even afford two of the synths he has here. I have to make all.my electro on a Yamaha reface and Korg microsampler.
Wow Dude... You rule so much! Incredibly amazing sounds... Showing the world what the right synths in the right hands can do
Wow all these vintage hardware's, love it. 😎
Very nicely done. 👍👍
I hope you want to play this song on the next part.
Lime - unexpected lovers. 🙂
I like this song very much.
Top. Reborn of italodisco. Che Musica!!! Abbiamo creato la colonna sonora degli 80
It started with Italo Disco and ventured into HiNRG towards the end but not complaining! Except that the video was too short!
Amazing music from an amazing time, I grew up with this in the club's and on the radio in Melbourne and I have never seemed to get sick of it or let it go. Today my young adult children also listen to it and love it too.
It's 2023 now and there's a lot of Nu Italo Disco coming out, making a comeback and there's already some tracks that I believe are an instant classic in the making....
I would highly recommend investing in an Italian made synth, you will soon realise as soon as you get your hands on one why Italo disco is Italo disco... Dr Mix demonstrated one that he called the Italo Disco Machine and rightfully so LoL....
But when you started on Hey Hey Guy, man! I love that track, I would love to see someone break that track down, I could really use the samples to make an extended remix... Some songs just need to be longer...
Fantastic, great job!
It was a flight thrue my teenage years ❤️
Most of all i like Kano-another Life, Thank you so much, i love it.🙏
Please do more of this 🫶🏼 👋🏻
Blown away by the memories you triggered with your skill and sounds!

Another Life is my favorite song of the 80's by far, I've always wanted to see a different rendition of it.
