In this episode, I recreate 20 of the greatest keyboard and synth parts from Michael Jackson songs, performed on original vintage synthesizers and keyboards associated with those classic recordings.

From the analogue warmth of the Minimoog, Yamaha CS-80 and Roland Jupiter-8, to the digital sounds of the Yamaha DX7, Roland D-50 and Korg M1, this episode follows the evolution of Michael Jackson’s iconic keyboard production across Off The Wall, Thriller, Bad and Dangerous.

Featured tracks include Billie Jean, Thriller, Human Nature, Beat It, Rock With You, Don’t Stop ’Til You Get Enough, Remember The Time, Dirty Diana, Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’, P.Y.T., Man in the Mirror and more.

All parts were recreated and performed using original hardware synthesizers and keyboards from my studio collection.

Featured synthesizers and keyboards include the Yamaha CS-80, Minimoog Model D, Roland Jupiter-4, Roland Jupiter-8, Yamaha DX7, Roland D-50, Korg M1, Oberheim Xpander, Rhodes piano, Steinway Model O grand piano and more.
