Simmons Electronic Drum - Dennis Boal - The Lab Fx

[@mikemike7345]

Electronic drum in the 1980s were more fun than today's

[@TheLabFx]

I think you right, maybe because it was so new back then.

[@mikemike7345]

I love it the 80s are back. Thanks for the video

[@TheLabFx]

Yeah, thank you. I just got the band Re-Flex, hope I spelled that right."The politics of dancing". Cool to hear those 80's dance songs again.

It was a long time ago.

The first part of the video shows a Simmons, but the sounds are clearly not those of a Simmons. What drum machine produces those sounds? An Oberheim DX? Thanks

[@TheLabFx]

Thanks for the comment. Good question it was so long ago, not really sure I remember. I know that first and third song had the Simmons V5 samples, and most likely that the other samples was from the E-mu products. The second song had acoustic and electronic samples, again, whatever the technology was of that year, circa 1980 ish. Keep the beat.

[@hindsighter]

Simmons V5? Perhaps you meant SDSV or SDS5.

[@TheLabFx]

Thanks.
