Casio CZ 101

[@brunobailly7013]

Reminds me of early Depeche Mode, especially A Broken Frame... Except with a greater variety of sounds. Nice demo.

[@SyntheticMachines]

@maisonvague the CR 8000 is not modified, only played with the CR 8000 Kadi Kit from Kenton. The Snare sound is overdubbed with a noise shot from the Casio CZ. The bassdrum is from the CZ, too.

[@fmsynths83]

I love the Casio CZ series, however the work that you made with it is absolutely fantastic, the song is really cool!

[@MrDuncl]

At the start I thought you were about to do a cover of "Save a Prayer".Great song and demo of the Casio though.

[@WoodyPianoShack]

amazing, never thought this little fella could sound this good. used to own one too.

[@ChasD]

You should sell these patches - a testament as to how good the CZ's can sound! Now, if only Casio had put sounds like these as presets on the CZ's instead of the generic, weak sounding rubbish just think how much more successful they could have been. 23 years after getting my first CZ101 I am STILL finding new sounds that surprise the hell out of me. A great little synth!

[@decoderltd]

Has a early Depeche Mode/Yazoo feel to it, really nice. Would love to know how to coax these types of sounds from my CZ-101

[@synthesizerhome2041]

was used extensively on early Erasure tracks in the mid-eighties

[@pepinillosazucarados6743]

IM IN LOVE WITH THE ARTURIA EMULATION ITS SO PRETTY !!!

[@D1rtyraver]

The BEST demo for a synth I have heard on KZbin. I'd rather listen to this than watch some disembodied pair of hands play random chords badly and noodly solos complete with bum notes and then not bother to edit it but just stick it up on youtube and call it a demo. YOUR DEMO ROCKS. Now I want a CZ101!

[@Audiorial]

absolutly beautiful, thank you!

[@maninblack9000]

Absolutely great CZ101 Demo!!!

[@BenedictRoffMarsh]

Great sounding and enjoyable piece. I loved my CZs (1000 & 3000) but I wouldn't pick this as CZ. Proves how versatile they can be if well programmed.

[@cresshead]

excellent demo...puts the CZ101 onto my list!

[@LFOVCF]

I never warmed to Casio PD, but damn it, you made some great sounding patches here, and a great tune.

[@Landosonic]

This track proves the point that - to use an analogy - a talented gardener doesn't need a platinum spade, he can do well with one of mere steel to create a fine landscape... I will want to learn from your excellent composing and arranging skills.

[@theRealIonian]

Ha! Sounds great! The CZ 101 is a killer machine...I haven't heard one in years and years - most likely since it was popular! But you make it sound better then even I remember! Good stuff!

[@analogsystem8015]

Very good sound ! Casio is a great synthé, very 80 !

[@invisibletenants]

Nice! Reminds me of mid 80's an early 90's electronic funk.

[@irndemon]

I found a cz 101 at work recently, i took it home and tested it & it works perfectly.Two white keys are cracked, probably happend when it fell out of the skip but im going to replace them. Why would anyone throw one of these away? Lovely little synth. Nice demo ^^

[@jeansebtremblay]

Again an amazing demo ! Thanks.

[@ElliotFlowers]

This guy could make a pooh sound good.

[@peterkadarmusic9728]

Absolutely killer!

[@sauermusicDE]

Very nice track. The intro reminds me a little bit of "Save a prayer" from Duran Duran (with a slightly different melody).

[@erdavis7]

2:51 Great sound!

[@BrontoScorpioMusic]

Wow. Really nice again! Cheers Dennis

[@djugel]

great as usual.. you the man.

[@radioblogtirana]

great music :D

[@TheSynthFreq]

Excellent!! Classic CZ sound! :)

[@xylic]

Great demo!

[@carltaylor43]

This is wicked :)

[@ChasD]

Interestingly, Vince Clark from Depeche Mode/ Yazoo used the CZ101 a lot on the early Erasure albums!

[@notgonnatakeit1]

I didnt know until lately Vince was so into the CZ. Listening to Erasure it's real obvious now.

[@Droidbot_electro]

Just PERFECT!!...

[@bbbbub]

Stellar!

[@thedeadsettleinband]

Excellent!

well done!!!

[@crnkmnky]

😽 *So Fresh.*

[@juno6]

Love it!

[@gus6183]

Chacho,te marcaste un temazo de dos pares de cojones

[@d_vibe-swe]

Amazing sounds! Are there any drum sounds from the Cz 101? thanks for sharing!

[@cutlasstracks]

This is great. How did you accomplish the arp/sequencing?

[@Fellinen]

Wow! You really master the Casio CZ 101 and for sure maximize its potential more then I could ever imagine was possible. What fx are used?

[@modeingliany]

excellent !

[@Lamont2086]

I have a cz 101 and some of those song are not on my cz 101, or did you make them up in the banks. anyway sounds great

[@bloodyhell302]

Now do something with a smoke alarm, I dare you.

[@Casious_Productions]

These presets i would like to achieve :-p !!!! Any chance to share..buy??

[@invisibletenants]

As a matter of opinion - between CZ 1,1000,3000,5000 and VZ1/10m/8m, which would you prefer over the CZ101/1000? Do you think that all the CZ's sound the same or are there some improvements in the sound other than the extra waveforms in the higher CS synths? Does the CZ101 really sound fatter than the rest, as many claim?

[@maisonvague]

Who would have guessed the CZ 101 could ever sound this good? Just goes to show you what a truly talented artist can do! BTW has your CR-8000 been modified? That snare sounds 10x better than mine.

[@JaroAtry]

It looks like a toy, but it sounds surprisingly good.

[@d_vibe-swe]

Btw! I like your song aswell! :)

[@fvazquez64]

Excelent!, it sounds very ala Kraftwerk...

[@MrBoneses]

i bought one at a yard sale for 5 bucks. works perfect.

[@cresshead]

are you putting out a album soon ? also do you have a website?

[@Cosmicprog2012]

JUST ONE PERSON BEATS(BITS) HALF OF THE SYNTH WAVERS!

[@Casious_Productions]

Patches please????

[@psysword]

Awed

[@vicachcoup]

A-ha!

[@djugel]

two thumbs down... seriously?

[@dronespace]

Love it!
