After The Fire - Starflight (KN6000) [Multi-Angle Version] скачать видео бесплатно

"Starflight" by "After The Fire" played on a Technics KN6000 keyboard by Stephen Macdonald.

Yes, another ATF song, but it's another wonderful song to play on the keyboard. This is based on the best live version of Starflight I've heard, which was broadcast on BBC Radio 1 just before Christmas 1980. I first tried playing this around 1981 as a teenager but I never finished it off until now since this is the first keyboard I've used that is anywhere near up to the job of playing this properly. 27 years late, but got there in the end. Having said that, if anyone wants to sell me a second-hand Moog... ;-)

I decided to slightly simplify the overlapping of the main and background vocals so the whole thing could be played live rather than resorting to using the sequencer. Like "Joy", this is just such a great song to play completely live.

The top keyboard is a Technics KN6000. The bottom keyboard, used to play the vocal parts, is a Yamaha PSR220 acting as a controller to the KN - so all the sounds are coming from the KN. There's also a footswitch controlling both the sustain of the synth voice and the holding of the lower-pitched phaser-effect strings during the intro. I managed to break the modulation wheel during filming of this so had to open up the KN and solder it back in place!

This version is the multi-angle edit created by filming several performances at different angles with a single camcorder and using AviSynth & VirtualDub on the PC to create a single video with transitions and graphics etc. There's also two other versions of this on my profile which show the full performance at two of the individual camera angles.
