This was my first ever real synth, hearing this brings so much nostalgia!

Ahh, The memories !!

[@Skumberg74]

They can play this tune at my funeral while launching my coffin onto a roller-coaster track :)

[@maxuk4894]

Thanks for posting . It rolled back the years .My all time favourite keyboard demo tune. It has a great beat and a real "outrun" flavour to it. And sounds even better through speakers.

[@LittleRichard1988]

Just ordered one today. All I have to do is wait til it arrives in the post. Yes I bought a Yamaha PSS-680 in 2021!

[@jamdonut7692]

Dude, could you possibly sample all the drum sounds? happy to pay.

[@LittleRichard1988]

Sorry I don't do online business but the PSS-680's drums are the same samples used in the likes of the Yamaha RX-11 drum machine. If you want Yamaha RX drums to sound like the PSS-680 you could put them through an 8 bit bit crusher. DSK Mini Drumz is a freeware VST drum machine rompler that includes samples from a Yamaha RX series drum machine. Or you might be able to find Yamaha RX drum samples online.

[@CalebRazzleberry]

@@jamdonut7692 Hey, you still looking for the drum samples? I’ve got mine and it would be easy to just put them through Ableton. :)

[@zariisofficial]

I'd love some recordings of the drum sounds!

[@LittleRichard1988]

@@zariisofficial DR-84 is a free 80s drum rompler VST which includes 16 samples from the Yamaha RX-11 which to be honest sound similar to the drums used in all Yamaha Porta Sound keyboards and are probably the same samples.

[@rg6779]

One of the best demos ever. I had it.

[@itstimeforham]

Thank you for uploading it. The nostalgia is overwhelming

[@romulinprince]

My 2nd keyboard that got me into producing music along with a fostex X-18 4 track machine. Made some killer originals after smoking a "J" in the early am hours .Kept me out of a lot of trouble at the time. Thx for posting this!👊

[@oldsarge52]

Loved this keyboard so much!

[@detective_l2413]

Ahhh memories... I remember my grandpa had this chungus since I was a kid lmao

[@moxiecoxie444]

omg i love this song

[@inphanta]

I somehow remember this tune note for note from pissing around with this keyboard in the shop back in the day. The music would not sound at all out of place in an 80s arcade game, many of which used very similar sound hardware. :)

[@OldsXCool]

Yep. This song holds up still more than ever thanks to the love of retro music.

[@paulcassidy5183]

A true classic.... never goes out of style

[@lozD83]

This and the 780 take me back... still got my dad's 780 in my loft

[@spig021]

John Shuttleworth’s intro oooof.

[@citizenhal]

I knew I recognised it from somewhere!!

[@LittleRichard1988]

Yes John Shuttleworth used this keyboard back in the early 90s which was part of the reason I bought a Yamaha PSS-680.

[@spig021]

@@LittleRichard1988 He still does use it now! I have the same model also.

[@antipianist8652]

I played it on piano now after 25 years, ( I remember it almost identical as original!!)and then I got an idea to search for it on you tube! And voila!

[@enchantress7940]

Still have and use it 👍🏻

[@DreamBig48]

Thanks for this. I learned to play using this keys. I won't forget this demo song.

[@neilsheppard6673]

Brilliant. I've always loved this tune.

[@TayWoode]

I still use mine, the synth section is actually really good if you fiddle about enough and the drums are nice and crunchy, synth toms are superb, this demo always reminds me of arcade video games from the 89s

[@tomkrawec]

Cherished childhood memories.

[@capnkat88]

Omg I haven't heard this song in nearly 20 years

[@doubletriangle22]

Banger of a tune think I’m going to cover it

Gracias!!!! Viajé en el tiempo

[@Soodoo76]

Oh my goodness. I really troubled my dad into getting this for my 13th birthday in 1989. Me and my cousin even wrote a "song" to the demo 🤣

[@what4515]

HELL YEAH!

[@jamdonut7692]

man back in the late 80s i always wanted one of these and this demo brings back so many memories

[@LittleRichard1988]

Why don't you buy one, you can get them for next to nothing on EBay. There's no real reason not to.

[@jamdonut7692]

@@LittleRichard1988 i just need the drum samples, besides i literally dont have room in my studio for more synths haha!

[@LittleRichard1988]

@@jamdonut7692 If you want a VST with selected Yamaha samples you should check out DR-84, it has 16 drum samples from the Yamaha RX-11 which sounds similar to some of these drums.

[@spacegirl2820]

Oh wow I still have mine 😊

[@genivos]

Just got one without adaptor and one loose key. For 30Euro. Lol. Adaptors I have plenty and the key is already fixed 😂 Great nostalgic mini synth, I always wanted to have one but never got it. Now I do.

[@ingridyerick333]

Sounds like 80's japanese pop

[@Cloud_Owl]

Does anybody know if there is a midi file for this anywhere, or if the song could be output from the device as midi?

[@YaFunklord]

I wonder if it could be the same author as F-Zero for SNES?

[@JamesLacombe]

Would you know what style to sélect to reproduce ?
