The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Today my son played me some stuff from a group which has mixed
synth-oriented techno (sorta trancy) with Speed metal. Assuming they are
German: "Ramstein."... Brilliant

Subject: [AN1x-list] rock and roll synthesizer


It's easy to make cool, new sounds with the AN1X. What I find hard is
using the sounds in a musical way. Obviously there are some genres-
dance, techno, and progressive rock that are more suited to
synthesizers than others. Still, synthesizers have been used
successfully in classic guitar rock-like Edgar Winter and Pete
Townsend. Bob Marley has some killer synth sounds bubling in his
music. Certainly funk and soul have always had cool electronic
sounds. Some of the experimental classical music-Switched on Bach,
etc., was cool. I can fit the obvious stuff in, the square wave lead
etc. I want to put those cool metallic clanging evolving sounds the
AN1X does so well and stick it into something cool.

What kind of music are you playing?
