DX5 playing The Cure "Plainsong"

[@g4br111]

LYRICS [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I think it's dark and it looks like it's rain, you said And the wind is blowing like it's the end of the world, you said And it's so cold, it's like the cold if you were dead And then you smiled for a second [Verse 2] I think I'm old and I'm feeling pain, you said And it's all running out like it's the end of the world, you said And it's so cold, it's like the cold if you were dead And then you smiled for a second [Bridge] Sometimes you make me feel Like I'm living at the edge of the world Like I'm living at the edge of the world It's just the way I smile, you said [Instrumental Outro]

Sorry to hear about your nephew. Our condolences to you &fam. Thanks for the compliments. But Alan and Roger are the masters. I am just a performer. Best regards. DX5

[@luigiperrone8169]

Great! I love when The Cure open with this song at their concerts. Well done!

[@DX5]

Thanks Luigi.

[@steve1751]

Even got the bass guitar part in there… very nice!

[@DX5]

Rudimentary made with the DX7 :)

[@briefcandle]

My favorite song ever.

[@Alteroga]

Truly a genius! What an artist. Excellent job!

[@karolarolfs7317]

Fantastic !

[@kyokootonashi1054]

Wooooww I really adore this! I love The Cure, and you did a great job with this, it is simply perfect, you are a Master! Bravissimo José, grazie per la bella musica che sai suonare!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🖤

[@DX5]

A compliment from a Cure fan is always welcomed. Though there are some missing sounds in the song.

[@DX5]

@@aderueda Thanks for the input, but I am playing the studio version. Roger jumps to a higher octave on the bridge when playing live, as opposite to the studio version. What I am missing is the hold upper C key.

[@aderueda]

That’s true about the studio version. Thanks and good work mate, cheers! 👍

[@DX5]

@@aderueda Liked your playing. 100% Accurate :)

I am lost for words, you are simply the best. Words lose their meaning beyond this point. Keep it going!

Hell of a Hobby!

[@retrosound72]

Wonderful. The good old times. Thank you.👍

[@DX5]

I've read Roger O'Donnel used a JX-8P for that album, according to this: www.matrixsynth.com/2006/08/synths-on-cures-disintigration.html

[@chaelodoul9401]

AMAZING JOB!!! Seriously; BRAVO!!!!!

[@michaelvance4993]

The JX8p is so perfect on the low end! Excellent job!

[@DX5]

Roger O'Donnel used one of those on "Disintegration" album.

Check it first. I can lose skills as I am getting older :) Gracias. Un abrazo hasta Texas.

[@marcelodiana82]

Well done! I love the strings in this song, they are so emotional and kind of melancholic, and you got that!! Greetings from Brazil

Amazing ! Thanks ☺️

[@ethanproctor6695]

I think this taught me what I'm doing wrong

[@DX5]

Don't trust on this performance at 100%. I was missing to hold the upper note along the string riff :)

[@kefmif]

Wow, you are using the D10 again. I was thinking about getting one, but now I am looking for an E70 since I need for some sort of an arranger more.

[@DX5]

Those synthetic strings worth the entire synth.

[@kefmif]

@@DX5 For sure, but I am aware of getting a D-series Roland in the budget I have since it can have some hidden flaws. There must be a reason why some cost D50s cost 350 Euro and other up to twice as much.

[@DX5]

@@kefmif Keyboard pcb traces can break/corrode with age. It is the only con I found on it (as usual on vintage synths). Just reworking them is the cure.

Gracias. España.

[@commentspae]

i challenge you to disintegration's title song

[@DX5]

[@zero-x-music]

Fabulous. How did you do the windchimes at the start and the other tinkly bits of "ear candy"? Care to share the JX-8P and DX5 settings?

[@DX5]

Thanks. I don't recall exactly, I think I used some of the Kurzweil chimes. Sorry, but I don't share/trade with my sounds. It's been always a lot of work for synthesizing the sounds I need.

[@cdwheel]

Había que dejar sostenidas algunas teclas para tener el efecto original 😬

[@DX5]

Así es. La original tiene más capas. También falta un Do contínuo en una octava superior.
