DX5 playing Imagination "Just an Illusion" cover
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 сен 2024
- Instrumental (as always) cover song. Recorded at the first take (thus some timing offsets).
Gear used:
Roland JP8000: Reso lead sound.
Kurzweil PC1x: Rhodes and piano sounds
Backtrack previously recorded, track by track, by me, including Roland Promars MRS-2 (bassline) and Roland JX-8P (extra synth layers and pads).
Original song composed by Ashley Ingram, Leee John, Steve Jolley & Tony Swain.
Performed here by DX5 Jose Maria Bará.
Llusion, illusion
Illusion, illusion
Searching for a destiny that's mine
There's another place, another time
Touching many hearts along the way, yeah
Hoping that I'll never have to say
It's just an illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)
Illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)
Illusion
Follow your emotions anywhere
Is it building magic in the air?
Never let your feelings get you down
Open up your eyes and look around
It's just an illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)
Illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)
Illusion
Could it be that... it's just an illusion?
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that. it's just an illusion, now?
Could it be that... it's just an illusion?
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that. it's just an illusion, now?
Could it be a picture in my mind?
Never sure exactly what I'll find
Only in my dreams I turn you on
Here for just a moment then you're gone
It's just an illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)
Illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)
Illusion
Illusion
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah) Illusion
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah) Illusion
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah) Illusion
Could it be that... it's just an illusion?
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that. it's just an illusion, now?
Could it be that... it's just an illusion?
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that... it's just an illusion, now?
Could it be that?
Putting me back
Could it be that?
Now, Could it be that... it's just an illusion?
Putting me back in all this confusion
Could it be that... it's just an illusion, now?
Could it be that (ooh yeah) it's just an illusion?
Putting me back (ow) in all this confusion?
Could it be that (yeah) it's just an illusion, now?
Could it be that... it's just an illusion?
Could it be that (yeah, yeah, yeah) in all this confusion
Could it be that... it's just an illusion, now?
Always interesting to hear these great covers without vocals, so much more focus on the synth and epic bass line :)
Having this groove since 1982 ,, 😮😮😮
Nailed that classic bassline. Nice one Jose! 👍

Una masa José!!
You nailed the Bass Tone. Well you pretty much nailed the entire song. 👌
Thanks. In my cover, bassline merit goes to the Roland Promars MRS-2.
You should do a tutorial video of the entire Bass line creation. Anyways, you are an amazing musician and much Kudos to you.
Old memory
Gustoume moito este novo cover (e mailo cambio de estilo)!!!
Grazas Jose!
Boop, boop, boop, boop- wha-OH
Try doing" don't disturb this groove by the system thnx
Can you cover "Dont tell me" or "Blind Vision" by Blancmange? That would be very cool!! Best wishes
You should show how you recorded the bass😀
It was the Roland Promars with occasional portamento on :)
This would be nice for karaoke
The original has a lovely pitch bend in the intro, shame to leave that out.
I ran out of arms :)
Amazing. I can hear Leee John singing in my head.
Gosh...I love ILLUSION both verbal and instrumental...I have a kinds of version...fast / slowed down etc...BUT YOU NAILED IT ON THIS ONE...BRAVO...Loved it...❤thank you for making this 😊😊🎉
Quality cover, very well done :-) They don’t make them like this anymore ;-)
Excellent performance, sir. Please, could you cover: One of our submarines - Thomas Dolby?
Excellente José !!! You nailed it !!! Btw, no more lives ? I received a notice the other day, but nothing then... Bye !👋
Hats off
Epic!!!!!!!❤
Thanks Jason. It was fun recording this. This song has a hypnotic groove.
4-1-24 I give this man a 💯 😎 🎹 🎹 🎶 🔥
Wow!!! Lol
Fantastic 👍👍
Love this song. Wonderful covered too. 🙌🎹
Thanks RetroSound. Well, some timing offsets here and there ;D (There is some flam in the claps, and that is distracting :D )
@@DX5 that is human feeling 😉👍
It was just wow
Super
Oh my god, i love this song and band ..Brilliant, thanks for shareing this superb cover! 2:09 🥰 In my element here, hope your well and have a great night! Sonique 🎹🎹👌🎶🤗
Hey Sonique, thanks. It was shot at the first time when practising the whole song. Some timing offsets though. This was one of my fav tunes ever. Have a great week! DX
Genial bro
Well done José you nailed it. I thought the JP 8000 did not sound Correct so went away and listened to original track. You were spot on 👍
All you have to do now is wear the gold Spandex suit .
The deep bass line funk sound was their signature sound ,-very talented guys-
Hope to hear more of your great live streams best regards dx5
Thanks Brian, but was made on a hurry really, Some timing issues at playing :D. The JP is not 100% as the original, but got quite close, have to say (edit: original sound is constantly filtered on and off, or kind of phaser, but I went for the easy way :) ). Cheers DX.
some of this looks quite difficult,well done
This is remarkably faithful to the original, including the character of the waveforms.
❤❤❤
Brilliant @DX5 👌👌👌
One those epic 80s grooves. Great job and thanks for sharing.
Love it. You nailed it. I was saying online that once you know to design sounds it's not hard to create the sounds from classic synth songs from the eighties. All it takes is the patience. You have reinforced my belief in that so thank you
It's when I listen to your covers my mind's ears always add the voice tracks
Thanks Synthfluencer :)
Pas mal du tout bravo l'ami
Merci
Great
🤩🎶
oh man, I love you. that was awesome !
UNIQUE AMAZING!
Excellent!!!!!!!!!!! 👍✌👌
Vraiment bien
Bravo.
Amazing cover. ❤❤
Beautiful ❤
