Classic/Cheesy '80s Keytar Riffs (Played on the Roland AX-Edge)

Sam takes a trip down memory lane with some classic (and quite possibly very cheesy) synth lines from the 1980's (well, mostly from the '80s)...played on the new Roland AX-Edge Keytar!

This video sent me over the damn edge into “purchase this now”

[@Nathriel]

Me too :)

[@mateush.s.o.4094]

like mamma:NOW...

[@iann8733]

@Scadster's World Have you heard of this? kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZW5fYSXr5KMbMk

[@strafzettel6470]

Im fucking Close... But i will never use it. But it is so fucking cool

[@tkx7]

elevate your status from average keyboard player to living rock god with the purchase of a Roland Edge Keytar

[@PMTVUK]

It's like an instant power up!

[@TheNefastor]

Pretty much 😁

[@chefmoviestudios4550]

I’m a hardcore metalhead that plays nothing but thrash metal and death metal on guitar but I fucking LOVE keytars I always thought they were super cool. I really wanna learn how to play one

[@awildfilingcabinet6239]

I mean, it combines the 2 best things from the 70s and 80s. Sick guitars and funky synths

[@michaelthayer8577]

Hard rock / borderline metal fan here saying go for it brother ! Nothing wrong with learning to play different styles and instruments

[@1k_Synth]

Update? It’s been 2 years, have you learned yet?

[@simonriley7750]

Never knew i would want something like this so badly.

[@simatin19]

I can't play any instruments and probably never will but this still makes me want to buy one.

[@amirkareem8562]

[@triphophoney2981]

[@interplanetarygelatin33]

not to discourage you but piano keyboard and keytar are one of the most difficult to learn

[@koristevens4110]

I dropped almost $1300 total for one of these just to play ONE song in our band…😅 WORTH IT!!!!

[@papachernobog922]

its like an 80s Tony Stark look

[@PandemoniumVice]

Welp. I officially require more keytar music in my life.

[@huseet491]

Just ordered myself a keytar, looks kind of stupid and super cool at the same time! Can't wait for it to arrive

[@Ashes2Ashes_Blush2Blush]

[@sosonulli9]

[@mothball-8324]

I must be a cheesy person because this speaks to my soul lmaoooooo

Proud to say that as of 24/01/20 I'm now the owner of a Roland AX-Edge Keytar purchased from PMT Leeds. Thank you so much Sam for inspiring me!

[@TrueMeHow]

true. and oxy wasn't even close to original groundbreaking composition but I had fun and I hope you too :)

[@Nathriel]

This and another video are what pushed me off the edge into the realm of keytars... because I bought this exact model. I grew up with an old Casio FM synth in the 90's and have had many since then. For me personally though, no synth have I enjoyed playing as much as this one. This was my first keytar and will always treasure it... it's just so damn fun to play and sounds great~!

[@EricLaermans]

1:25 R.I.P. Eddie... nice tribute!

[@cgl0698]

This was truly an amazing job done from start to finish. I was astonished by your performance 👏 hats off, mate.

[@julesmusicproduction]

Walk of life is an all time classic.

[@dixiegirlzrule959]

That beginning riff was stuck in my head. 80s keytar brought me here.

[@jgrossma]

The keyboard tie really brings the look together.

[@clipz1]

dude went back to work after this video and never made eye contact with a member of staff ever again

[@Luckmann]

I need full versions of these covers, because this is awesome.

[@peasantlettuce8278]

LOL. I want a Keytar! I put one on my Amazon Wishlist. I LOVE 80's Synth!

[@damiencorrow2872]

I’m not from the 80s but this is awesome

[@danterosales6985]

Something i did not know i needed but did

[@tonyryan6688]

Brilliant! Love it. My old hero the late George Duke used to play the keytar. 😀😀😀

[@ninjamda9883]

This video deserves more views

[@eddiebabinski407]

[@Skijumptoes]

Fantastic, loved this - loved the tie and trainers too! Awesome :) Oh, and no-one does 80s cheese better than Roland in my opinion!!

[@DelphineDofain]

Two years later, this video made me buy an AX-Edge for my birthday

[@TheNefastor]

You just know that no matter when we invent time travel, everyone will be going back to the eighties. That's not even a debate 😅

[@evilblade666]

Damn it! Now I can't wait even more for my Alesis Vortex to arrive!

[@1SYNTHSTAR4]

OMg ! You Popped Off man Now THAT Was aBlast Too THE PPPAAASSSSTTTT! Seemed like that was so much fun loved the beginning transition phew that was a clean unique funny that's what makes a video great 😊

[@rexjolles]

[@THENUKE589]

Is it as good as it seems?

[@brandonstover4732]

Love the keytar what an awesome instrument!

[@ryanrichard8000]

I'll tell you the keytar is the most coolest instrument on the planet

[@Harbinger28567]

This video is so awesomely cheesy. Love it!

[@willfomes406]

Oxygene 4 By Jean Michel Jarre it wasn't released in the 80s it was released in 1976 and fun fact the instruments used for it were: Arp 2600 modular Keyboard Eminent Organ Minimoog Putney VCS 3 sound mixer Moog Liberation Portable keyboard Moog one Keyboard Theremin

[@magicalcat9963]

Thank you for now making me want a keytar more

[@atillafiliz6591]

I've been trying to teach myself for a while. Are there sheets of those legendary riffs?

[@isaackirbyfishing]

Try musescore

[@Yeldarb92]

So I drunkenly search for keytar and came across this gem. SUBBED FOR LYFE MATE

[@donvandamnjohnsonlongfella1239]

I will buy one of these some day. This is a must to get that 80s sound.

[@stephenweigel]

I love the accidental split third at 0:48

[@Silverstone_Myth]

I always wanted to play the keytar man one day I will

[@carlaislandia1634]

Ótima performance de palco 👏👏👏👏

Dressed more american than a brit in the 80s, should have been a real lad in tracksuit

[@thewaydownmachine]

My apartment complex isn't ready for this

[@CleaverCrusader1987]

Someone should reinforce it so it can be used as a weapon. Crush your enemies may your melody be theme of their funeral.

[@elpidapavlitsevits463]

Omg this video is for me, I just got the Ax edge!

[@samjohns5622]

Awesome video man!

[@thebloody_.e]

Muse is the one not from the 80’s. That particular song released in 2006

[@Jack10158]

It's my life goal to have a keytar and be able the play the first song you played exactly the same way. If I don't accomplish that goal I'll die unhappy💀

[@rexjolles]

Ive always wanted one but they're so damn expensive

[@jet3296]

I need a keytar. And I need this to be my life.

[@TranceCore3]

I almost bought one of these, but I seriously don't need a keytar, they sound dope though

[@Kids_Scissors]

this here is why I want a keytar lol

[@granbord7474]

my new fav instrument

[@wildwestvirginian4849]

What were those shoes someone please tell me

[@nerdydaddyo]

One, you forgot Ghostbusters theme 🤣. Two, amazing Muse cover, even if only for a minute.🤟

[@enderloser1]

I made the choice of buying the Yamaha shs-300 as a first keytar, which is great but I think I need something a bit bigger mainly because the amount that I can play is crippled by the small amount of keys the shs-300 has. Point is, I desperately want a AX edge

[@janellegardiner2486]

I have to buy one now!

[@ZapataMusicPR]

Cool. I got the same keytar but in black. My videos are mosty metal and video game covers. Never thought using the Roland AX Edge for 80's synth stuff 🤔

[@garyk8285]

OMG this is the best! love it!

[@nintenjoe2702]

Oxygene pt4, my favourite!

[@elmeromero6559]

great video but just one doubt ..do I need passive speakers or active speakers to conect and play my Roland?? I'll appreciate someone reply me .. t-you =)

[@CleaverCrusader1987]

*Sniffle* "It's-It's beautiful"

[@memphys316]

oxygene by Jean Michelle Jarre was 1976, so not an 80's riff. This is one of those albums that even if you haven't heard it, you have. And it was the inspiration for everything that came after it. well worth the listen after all these years. muse - knights of cydonia is 2006.

[@Jinogazino]

Abraham Cottrill description say mostly 80s so he’s well aware

[@mauriciobayuelo]

Que Zipote de video! Gracias por educarnos :)

Hey bro this video was really cool can you do 2 segundo part of in with hip hop and R&B too thank you

2:02 Sounds like something I'd hear in a DOS Dungeon Crawler.

[@Mr.Plant1994]

It never occurred to me that the final countdown would of been played on a keytar

[@homerdalors2361]

Knights of Cydonia was released in 2006.
