Ambient music:
As a genre, ambient focuses on creating a mood or atmosphere through synthesizers and timbral qualities. It often lacks the presence of any net composition, beat, or structured melody. Due to its relatively open style, ambient music often takes influences from many other genres, ranging from house, dub, industrial and new age, amongst several others. Since it is a relatively ambiguous term, ambient has no distinct characteristics, and its style can vary a great deal. In essence, it is a term to describe any form of electronic music which puts an emphasis on tone and atmosphere over traditional musical structure or rhythm. Ambient music is often highly conceptual and experimental in style, while it is said to evoke an "atmospheric", "visual" or "unobtrusive" quality.
Space music:
Space music, also called spacemusic, is an umbrella term, synonymous with a segment of New Age Music and Ambient Music. It has also been associated with preceding styles of relaxing music such as lounge music, easy-listening, and elevator music... space music can evoke a "continuum of spatial imagery and emotion,"which can be beneficial for introspection, and for developing, through a practice of deep listening, an awareness of the spatiality of sound phenomenon. This type of psychonautic listening can produce a subtle trance-like state in certain individuals which can in turn lead to sensations of flying, floating, cruising, gliding, or hovering... space music is used by some individuals for both background enhancement and foreground listening, often with headphones, to enable states of relaxation, contemplation, inspiration, and generally peaceful expansive moods; it may promote health through relaxation, atmospherics for bodywork therapies, and effectiveness of meditation. Space music appears in many film soundtracks and is commonly played in planetariums.

Very nice, love your ambient soundscapes. the DW-8000 is a great synthesizer!

[@synth4ever]

Thanks so much! :) Yes, the DW-8000 has fantastic sounds and waveforms. It's a great digital analog hybrid.

[@nolake]

Great soundcrafting that makes me think I’ll have to get one of these for my own ambient music. Infinite creativity, great job.

[@synth4ever]

Thank you Frederic! The DW-8000 still sounds amazing to this day.

[@seanchristophersynthesizer6999]

I came so close to buying one of these in the late 80's and regret not doing so. Great video! :)

[@synth4ever]

Thanks! You can still find them on 2nd hand market for reasonable prices these days. :)

[@themetamorph]

Stunning! I discovered your superb channel when searching for TG33 videos. Lovely work,thanks!

[@synth4ever]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the videos.

[@ifaber68]

Very nice sounds with DW-8000, good :-D

[@synth4ever]

Thanks a lot my friend! :)

[@imaldon1]

I had one of these many years back (winter 1986). I had it until 1990 then purchased a Roland-D70.

[@synth4ever]

Cool, how did you like the DW-8000?

[@imaldon1]

@@synth4ever I liked it a lot. An excellent keyboard to develop new sounds and simple to use compare to newer keyboards that came after. 👍🎹

[@couchcamperTM]

it's so much harder without a good controller^^ but on the inside it's a very powerful machine

[@synth4ever]

Agreed! There is a lot of power under the hood but the controller allows you to unlock it fully. :)

[@Treenote]

Nice ambient performance. This is a nice sounding synth. I really like having the DW waveforms in my Korg R3. They’re very useful!

[@synth4ever]

Thanks! I agree it sounds very lush. That's cool the waveforms are also in the R3!

[@rhythmguild4333]

That's awesome! I never knew that about the R3!

[@Treenote]

@@rhythmguild4333 Yeah, they are tucked away as the last waveform option for OSC 1 on the R3.

[@axs203]

Very distinctive sound that DW......Ulrich sounds

[@synth4ever]

Yes indeed, Ulrich Schnauss is a big fan of this synth to my knowledge... he even had additional sound banks installed! kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqq0qnqqfr-Vic0

[@samsam9923]

Personal favourite synth i've ever owned. If only the keyboard didn't suck so much! I find programming on the panel fine, although would like to play around on a controller like you have !

[@synth4ever]

Thanks for the comment. Yes, it's a very nice sounding synth, but the keyboard clacks a lot! If you can find the BCR-2000 controller it really unlocks its potential.

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

As if I didn’t already regret the lost opportunity I had to purchase the DW-8000 on the floor of my friend’s music and art retail store in January 2007, that regret has only worsened this calendar year (2020). Before this year when I watched a couple of Espen Kraft’s demos of his 8000, I didn’t know that it could be patched from a sold-separately outboard programmer like the Roland JX line. Thought all the patching was done on the front panel.

[@synth4ever]

When the DW-8000 was first released there were no controllers for it... today they are a few such as StereoPing, Retroaktiv, and the Behringer BCR2000. You can usually find DW-8000 for reasonable price on eBay or Reverb if you still want one, or put out an ad on Craigslist! :) They are out there...

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

Cheers!

[@andreylozhkin2086]

Cool! May I ask you how you figure out sysex messages for the parameters. I would like to program a controller for a synth with sysex, trying to learn how it could be done

[@synth4ever]

I didn't, there was already a DW8000 sysex control mapping setup by someone I donwloaded and uploaded to the BCR2000. I got it here: anlage-e.de/bcrpack-dw-8000/

[@Synthfidel]

Mesmerizing! Love the chops start at about 2:00 that slowly fade. Are you using the BCR2000 with Behringer firmware, or with ZAQuencer?

[@synth4ever]

Thank you! I used a DW-8000 Sysex file that mapped the BCR2000 to DW-8000's controls.

[@anonymous_friend]

@@synth4everWhere can I get the sysex file? Great idea!

[@synth4ever]

@@anonymous_friend here anlage-e.de/gear/korg-dw-8000/

[@ezquimal]

I neves understan that keyboard. I think that with that controller are more easy to program.

[@synth4ever]

Yes, the BCR2000 unlocks the DW-8000's potential.

[@ezquimal]

@@synth4ever thanks

[@lanmichaelmix2818]

interesting synth,however this sound is weird
