38 seconds in: Pianos



Can't get enough of that rave piano.

Whatever sampler/rompler they were using that crushes the decay and makes them sound all chunky is effing brilliant.

Nice video, too, if you're into castro hats, break dancing without doing cool tricks, and 2004 era ipod commercials.

  1. i'm pretty sure the korg m1 is where the classic house piano sound comes from

  2. yeah, alex, you're right. i dl'd a vst of the m1 and that piano is there along with about 400 other easily recognizable sounds. it's amazing how so much music was produced using its unaltered presets! i'm willing to bet that a lot of songs were made solely within the m1 because people were pumped to have a workstation with a "world of sound." i'd like to add it to my setup, but i am unwilling to learn how to program the damn thing, and i don't wanna spend all day fucking with envelopes buried in menus. maybe i'll just use the presets.
