    8-bit / chiptune · Rob Hubbard / Martin Galway · 1985

    140bpm 16th-note pentatonic lead through the C64 SID chip. fast, repetitive, in-your-face — Rob Hubbard / Martin Galway video-game-soundtrack DNA. no FX by default — the SID's own character is the texture.

  2. 02
    berlin school / cosmic · Klaus Schulze / Tangerine Dream · 1975

    100bpm 8th-note hypnotic sequence through the modular pulse-pad program in C minor. Klaus Schulze / Tangerine Dream / late-70s Berlin school DNA. delay + plate on by default — the FX are half the genre.

  3. 03
    italo / proto-house · Giorgio Moroder / Donna Summer / mid-80s synth-pop · 1979

    112bpm 16th-note arpeggio in A minor over a 909 four-on-the-floor. The arp walks A → C → E → G → A → E → G → C across the bar. tape on for cohesion. swap moog→hookeclav or hookelead via the override panel to hear the actual grandmother play it.

  4. 04
    detroit techno · Model 500 / Juan Atkins · 1985

    909 4×4 at 130 with a moog string-stab figure walking i-VI-III-VII in C minor. juan atkins / model 500 / underground resistance dna. plate on for the warehouse.
