  • ** Updated cover: • DX5 playing Bronski Be... **
    Thanks for your music and inspiration, Steve Bronski (RIP). 1960-2021
    Played on my own way with intro. This is the first take. Backtrack recorded in Pro Tools.
    Note some problem when I try to change the voice on the mid DX7 II (It was on edit mode, so I had to exit, then change voice).
    Upper: Yamaha DX7 Mk1 (Original Cartridge's Harp preset)
    Mid: Yamaha DX7 II FD
    Lower: Kurzweil PC1x
    Composed by Bronski/Cole/Somerville

      @@MRS2291132 That's DX5 in the video playing, The original keyboard player died, or one of them died in 2017, the founder of the band also died back in of 2021 sadly. Only jimmy left now out of the three sadly.
