DESCRIPTION:
improvisational recording (through a cheap PC mic) , December 2013
KGB - Ρετρό πουτάνα

organs used were 3 and were connected the oldschool MIDI way
(no computer, minimal programing on ht3000, maximal live and jamming functionality ) :

Casio HT3000, Bontempi AZ7500 and Roland EF-303

ht3000 was the master, ax 7500 was slave to master chord and rhtyhm, as well as EF303 which was the slave 303-like bassline

The only programming that took place for this recording is the drums, bass and chord section of the master MIDI instrument CASIO HT-3000, which drives the other two organs...

MORE ABOUT THE INSTRUMENTS

Casio HT3000 is a real synth and a nice programmable keyboard (that is in real time as storing anything is extremely problematic in this model AKA memory sticks are extremely rare) , thus regarded by some as one of the first home non-pro workstation keyboards , that means that besides the unique synthesizer sounds, the rhythm , bass and chord section of this keyboard are a powerful beast waiting to be unleased , despite the crispy 1987 drum samples sounds.

Bontempi AZ7500 (around 1992) is a decent 90s MIDI keyboard with an intersting and quickly responsive MIDI and rhythm sections and a pseudo-synth complimenting its rather small collection of main tones. drum pads always a plus in my book.

Roland ef303 (from 1999? ~ used as a 303 synth sound module here) is an amazing unknown and underappreciated machine.. Its a ... hmmmm a one of kind multi-effect box with the unique feature that the parameters of the effects can synchronised to either live or DJ play BPMs , ideal for DJing, electronic, rhythmic, noise and experimental music, but also is a small MIDI miracle toolkit: a small sequencer, a small analogue sounding drummachine , and a small synth with impressively massive sound... It would take a full-on article to simply start explaining why roland ef-303 is such an amazing multi machine...
