The Mills track is quite beautiful. It's very easy to forget that his stuff comes in many different flavours. I wish he'd release more ambient(ish) records actually. I find his kind of ambient refreshing and never boring, unlike that of some producers who make mostly or solely that kind of

I think that I'd classify that as an analog string sound, which I'd try to approximate using pulse width modification of a square wave, then run it into a chorus + reverb. I don't think that Neil was borrowing Jeff's synth. They both used similar sounds and then did similar (but not the same)

well, I still think that the synth patch on these both youtube clips comes from the exact same source. that is, a preset or something, on the stuff they used. and no, its no modular synth. no its not beefy analog. because most of the stuff used were on the cheap side. or gotten cheap. . Im

I could make sounds like that on a Roland Juno 60. Too much is made about how 'cheap' the gear they use in Detroit is, but the fact is it's all gear that was cheap until the early 90s and expensive ever since. And yeah that weird pitch bend at the start of each note is the same on both and is

Hi, all. I'm considering letting go of my collection of Richie Hawtin's Concept 12 records. I have 9 of the 12 records, plus the box. My set is missing numbers 3, 4, and 8. The sleeves and box, unfortunately, are somewhat water-damaged, so they're not in pristine, collector condition. Also, the

A lot of what I've been buying lately is older house, disco, and boogie. It seems like a lot of Chicago DJs are selling large parts of their vinyl collections. As far as new things go, I've been picking up all of the recent Rush Hour Trax reissues (even though I have a lot of the originals).

The sound comes from a Korg rompler, likely an X5d. If you want to do the 90's Mills thing, the formula is: 909, Yamaha QX21, Akai S3000, EMU Carnival, Yamaha DX100, Yamaha TG33, and an early 90's Korg rompler(doesn't matter which one). I have heard that Neil Oliverra did Sountrack313 on an X5d,
