Saturday Love - Cherrelle (keyboard cover)

Just a brief jam... a classic song written and produced by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis that is 36 years old and counting. It features a duet with Alexander O'Neal. This song is always a lot of fun to hear or play. It's also fun to sing as long as you don't run out of breath (good luck).
I do not own rights to this composition.

From the drums to the chords, to all the nuanced in between, this is incredible

What's so wonderful about cover is you truly defined the melody in between the chords. Jam and Lewis' magic - they always have the perfect groove, and phrasing in the vocal over beautiful melody. Of course, the funk (that bass, Terry Lewis is always the funk where Jam brings the jazz influence. I think the original bass synth was played on an OB-8 because oscillator sounds different in the track. It doesn't moan or whine like Minimoog would. Thank you for this. Well Done!

Just came upon your channel. Your piano covers are awesome and give me positive vibes. Most accurate keyboard covers around. Putting a smile on my face.

[@TheOfficialRobbyIce]

Thank you!

[@astroscoop3801]

This is masterful! Jam/Lewis magic sound! Wow. I'm just starting out. You deserve way many subs! Look forward to more! Be well.

[@TheOfficialRobbyIce]

Thank you!

[@margix1172]

You are able to recapture the magic of Jam/Lewis (the Lennon/McCartney of synth funk), Jackie Graham from UK had a sort of this airy dreamy sounds in his great solo record.

[@PrincessSakuno]

Amazing

[@danceablesolutions]

This is awesome thanks. Only been learning theory for year and I want to do a jungle version of this perfect tune and thanks to this video and my Jupiter Xm which does all the sounds I can. Thank you!!!!

[@missparsley3202]

Wow sounds great! 👍🕺💃🤩🎉

[@ZippoHebs]

Thank you so much

Einer meiner Lieblingslieder in völlig neuem Glanz! Genial!

[@truretro2950]

most authentic one ive seen

[@MoonLanta]

Unreal!!!!! SUBBED!!! Getting a dr550 sounding like an Oberheim DX is no small feat! Not to mention all your other spot on jam and lewis kit recreations!!!! I'm blown away

[@TheOfficialRobbyIce]

Thank you! A revealed secret: the snare sound isn't from the DR-660; it is actually an external sample triggered by the DR-660. All the other sounds (cymbals, hi-hat, clap, kick drum) do come from the DR-660 with some EQ used. Yes, some of these chords are identical to "The Finest." The prechorus chords are similar as well. If you know one, you could easily fake your way through the other. 😉

[@trapmaniabrazil]

Very vry nice.

[@jethro80an]

We waiting for another video from you..

[@CleanMusicLover229]

Could you do Boyz II Men - End of the Road and Alexander O'neal - Sunshine?

[@danceablesolutions]

Now do Ednah Holt serious Space Party or All Night Long by Mary a Jane Girls

[@DjIceCnS]

I just realized that the finest and saturday love are very similar. Am I right?

[@TheOfficialRobbyIce]

Yes, you are correct!

[@chrisssbrooks]

Sounds amazing can you share the chords?

[@TheOfficialRobbyIce]

Intro/Prechorus: E♭m7, B♭m7, A♭m7, E maj 9 Verse/Chorus: E♭m9, A♭/B♭ (repeat) Prechorus: E♭m9, B maj 9

[@joseph395]

What synthesizer is that? Great video

[@TheOfficialRobbyIce]

Thank you! The 88-key is the General Music Promega 3. The small synthesizer is the Yamaha Reface DX.

[@joseph395]

@@TheOfficialRobbyIce that patch on the GEM is awesome I think it sounds better than the original 💪🏼

[@TheOfficialRobbyIce]

An onboard chorus/exciter effect is used for the CP Grand voicing, and that's probably what you hear. The exciter brings out a certain brilliance. The Hybrid 2 voicing is used as another layer (shifted up one octave, the mod wheel tweaked slightly for vibrato) and the chorus/exciter effect is applied to that as well. Onboard plate reverb is used for both voicings. The GEM was always so easy and fun to work with.

[@joseph395]

@@TheOfficialRobbyIce thanks man. Yeah I have a bunch of digital synths motif es6, Yamaha s90, couple of ensoniq and just got a Oberheim ob-x8 (my only analog) and I’ve been trying to find a good patch like that. I’m going to try to layer a Wurlitzer/rhodes patch and tweak with it a little with some of the settings like u said 👍 that GEM does look like a awesome well built synth!
