Never seen him happier, and he's a naturally jolly fellow. Lovely.
By hearing this sound, my step father comes to mind. He used to play farfisa for The Idols and Demis Roussos. He had a great white Farfisa home, which we unfortunately gave away when he died. Ok, so many memories....For some reason I' m unboxing with you right now, LOL.
Notis Lalaitis? Respect!
Is his name Vangelis P. by any chance?
@@spu77 Yes, that was him. Thank you. He was the man!
@@bertvdlast His name was Notis Lalaitis.
No way!!!
The utter and complete joy in your face, the rekindling of your happy (and angry) time from your childhood... the mellow tones, those terrible-good synthesized instruments, and how you wouldn't trade them for the best new digital synth on the market. I am living vicariously through your unbridled happiness at being reunited with the Bontempi. Please keep your Bontempi as it is, maybe make it work, lubricate the moving parts... but it is the foundation of the musical you. I kept thinking of the incidental/background music from the Napoleon Dynamite movie.
The first "band" I was in (as a "drummer" on wash powder boxes) used a Bontempi keyboard. Our keyboard player was very skilled at that time - now he is a lawyer. This is almost 40 years ago. Good memories :-)
Voilà Bontempi is the best song ! So too much! I remember my child période. See you my dear.
I would keep the old one for spares as well as the Sentimental / Nostalgic value of it. Reminds me of my very first Keyboard which I bought 2nd hand for £5 in 1978. It was a Magnus chord organ. That was enough to get me started and I bought my first Synth in 1984, A Korg Poly 800 which I still have and in working order :)
Keep the old one just for the good times and keep using the new one for new music and Ideas.
That's what I did.
I started playing on a Casio SA-20, 30 years ago, the main amplifier board got fried because someone plugged in a 1.5 amp power supply on to it .
I was able to find a spare one and just changed the board and is back from the dead. I sampled my favorite sounds to my Roland GW-7 and incorporate those to new tunes.
Sometimes, just for the fun of it, I keep playing the SA-20. It's great.
Great video, the excitement is priceless.
That's part of my life too when i Was a kid me too have a Bontempi and it Was wonderfull for a little kid, maybe it falled me in love for the music and the keyboards, synth and any other electronic stuff teatrale make sound. And every time that i listen the Bossa nova rythm of Bontempi it remember me the sound of battery in the last track of the lp "Magnetic Field" by Jean Michel Jarre
You have passion. I tell my kids that passion can take you to places that you would never see otherwise... Stay passionate!
No matter wich instrument , Dr Mix sounds ever good because he loves music :)
The joy from discovering your past is quite charming - I find myself smiling through the video!
This moment...he turn the organ on in the studio. He start to move. This old electric organs are si simple and they are musically and they got GROOVE. ;)
He smile from the moment he turn the organ on and can´t stop, more than words.
Memories of my childhood. Wow!
Bontempi ! = Memories !
My sister got a teeny tiny Bontempi for a Xmas present way back in the early 70s.❤️🙏🏽
Tutti abbiamo avuto una Bontempi, da bambini o da ragazzi ❤
I feel pure love vibes here man!
Old bontempi stuff is so cool!
That lead sound at 13:23 is the sauce!!! 🔥🔥🔥love it
Whew! Thank you for not saying you’d not butcher the intact organ.
Loved seeing you relive your childhood
I haved this organ when I'm 9-10 old. But, after a couple of years, my parents sold this for buy a new type of keyboard. You must know that my old house was near Civitavecchia and I like to think that your organ is my old loved Bontempi! Bye Gianni. Obviously, I love this video too!
I was born in 1972 and got my first bontempi organ in the late 70s as well!
I'm pretty sure it is in my mother's loft lol
I just need to dig it out and get myself a model d :)
Totally understand the feels. I rediscovered my old Casiotone CT-410V that I bought new in 1985 up in the attic. After much mechanical cleaning, canned air, and contact cleaner, I had it back in working order. It sounds 100% 80s and is super fun. I was happy to give it to my 9yo daughter who it enjoying making all manners of joyous noise now. :)
This video teaches us, we adults are nothing but big kids still loving to play our toys haha. I enjoyed watching!
Bontempi e la musica della meravigliosa serie "le avventure di Pinocchio". Che dire? Italia nel cuore ♥️
Nostalgia... I started too with a Bontempi in the 1981, wich was the best to play Popcorn!
My first decent keyboard was also a Bontempi organ; some console-style model. It was my Christmas present in 1979. The lead section and its gate-style envelope sounded terrible but there was a very warm bass /accompaniment sound on the lower brown keys that I really liked and I still remember it to this day. I found the exact same one on Facebook Marketplace and it was free. Had I had enough space, I'd have snapped it up. It preceded my first synth, a Juno-60, in 1985.
I had a Juno 106 that I adored but traded it in a moment of stupidity. Wish I still had it 😭
When I bought my first proper sampler in the mid-90s (an Emu ESI-32 w 32MB RAM/Turbo Expansion Kit) I didn't have very much to sample! So the first thing I ever sampled was a bunch of sounds and percussion from a friends Bontempi Minstrel Alpha. I finally bought a Gotek USB floppy emulator last week and dug out all my old floppies, much to my surprise, most of them still worked! Along with the Bontempi I also had a bunch of Casio VL-Tone disks. I really like the cheesy sounds and percussion, I've found that using the ASDR, portamento, modulation, filters & effects you can get some really nice useable sounds off these old Home Keyboards. I just need to sus out how to convert my old floppies to useable USB images. TBH I've not used a hardware sampler in decades, lol. Thank God I've still got the manual.
This (along with Knight Rider Theme Recreated) are the best Dr. Mix has ever done
Wauw Bontempi, brings me back to 1976 when I got one's of the lower models, it had really air in it, you could hear a big fan flowing into the piece. And the controls were floating on air. Not sure where that went, probably to my nephew, who also was busy with music back then.
hated Bontempi when i first started using synths in 1979. now I love them lol
I love the Minimoog with the bontempi. Awesome!
I am from Montreal and I used to work as a service electronic tech for the Canadian importer of anything Italian in the '70s, Bontempi, Farfisa, Solina and some others I forget (I'm old! :) ) This was fun watching! :)
You said you could play for ever, please do so I could listen forever. Your own Bontempi should be restored. It is part of your life and I wasn't writing this if you didn't play it as a kid. So it is (sort of) influencing our lives too.
very well said!!
What a lovely mellow sound.
Take shell off the OG, put it on the one that works.
Infectious giggles. Thank you once again
I had a Bontempi when I was 12 years old, with that keyboard I discovered my skills with music, it was my first serious contact with music. That Bontempi was a huge piece of furniture with 49 keys, with sounds of flute, violin, organ and some more; rhythms of jazz, waltz, tango, rock, slow rock and march. At the age of 14 I had an organ teacher and from then on my musical abilities were re-enhanced.

Ciao Claudio, believe me, this one of the best videos you ever did!!! Keep your smiling!!!! It's so great!!!!
I had one too !! When I was 12-13 YO I spent hours on it ! Grazie Claudio !
I came across my old childhood Yamaha pss-780 at an auction recently and won it for £5. I had leant it to a friend about 20 years ago and had never seen it since. It was like meeting an old friend again.
My husband says to restore it to keep your childhood memory alive. You are a cutie now and were such a cutie then. Thanks for the video. What great memories. Chris and Dave
Fantastico guardarti tornare bimbo con la Bontempi :-D
Molto emozionante! Non sapevo che la tua famiglia fosse di Civitavecchia, io abito a Ladispoli ma ho dei parenti che vivono lì. Anche io avevo un Bontempi, ma era un organo....con la ventola che pompava l'aria per farlo suonare. La parte accompagnamento, composta da bottoni, prevedeva solo gli accordi maggiori😁 Quanti ricordi....e anche la fisarmonica di papà, una Settimio Soprani, che qualche volta mi faceva provare...avevo 8 anni...... aveva paura la facessi cadere😁
Sei un mito!Sei il mio idolo!!!Un grande abbraccio dall’Italia!!!
Fantastically nostalgic video as I too started my keyboard playing journey on a Bontempi, although mine was not as advanced as yours as it was a Bontempi 25 Hit Organ, a reed organ with red and black chord keys on the left and a three octave keyboard. Although the sound of the electric fan was almost as loud as the reeds it was blowing I still loved that thing as a kid and you’ve reminded me that mine is also still in the loft in my Mom’s house. I may have to go and rescue it soon, just to see if it brings the same smile to my face as your old keyboard did to you.
I owned one of those! My parents bought me one when I was... younger (ahem!). I remember playing in my first "concerts" at school playing this beauty. Playing Starless by King Crimson or Letting go by Paul McCartney with this keyboard! Say no more! I even started composing with this one. I even have recordings. I learned to keep tempo thanks to the rhythm built-in thing. O, the remembrances!
Thanks
Oh! Those bontempis... I've had beautiful moments around those synths through all my childhood and teen years . The ones that were air powered are so amazing!
Good man, Claudio, nothing wrong with emotions.
The most productive & entertaining all around great person Dr mix
It's amazing you still had that botempi, and it's even more amazing that you still have recordings of yourself playing it all the way back when you were 6.
This really was a joy to watch.
More Young Claudio! Young Claudio is super cute.
Claudio, you have all that expensive equipment and you get total enjoyment form an old Bontempi organ, wow!
I setup a home recording studio in a spare bedroom, purchased all sorts of fancy modern sequencers, then when I purchased an old 1992 Korg M1, that I wanted back in the day, but never had one, well needless to say, the rest of the equipment stays mostly idol, when I doo get tim I play the M1. Thanks Claudio for the video.
Got Farfisa VIP and some Scandalli organ. Absolutely love them!
This is my favorite of your videos because there’s something really special about us connecting with our younger selves that brings us closer to the world of ideas. It’s a moment that can never really be duplicated but we know deep inside that there’s more truth there. Thats why it’s so much fun.
Incredible ... The Bontempi organs were musical cots for many of us Italians of the 70s / 80s. So many good memories for me too ... and nice that you dug it up from the past!!!
Love watching relive your old memories! My first synth was a CZ-1000 and an Atari 520ST. So fun times to relive! God bless, and keep making the videos!
So important to keep your stuff. dr mix is 10 years younger now
You couldn't get the meloldy right? BONTEMPI !!! Thank you so much for this Video, Its my childhood...
You are gorgeous! It‘s just a joy watching you doing what you are doing! Just inspiring!
Wonderful video! Thanks for sharing your memories. I still have the first keyboard I bought, a Casio 1000P, in 1982. It still works fine! I say keep the old Bontempi...memories are important.
Simply so heartwarming!
That’s a super sick instrument to have as a little kid
Nice!!! My first was the LOWERY ORGAN It had a Bell and Howell cassette tape and the Rythm machine Circa 1965-66
Grande Dottor Mix. Ricordiamo i miti di sempre!
That thing is awesome! Love the sounds!
Numero uno! Grandissimo!
Date a Claudio una tastiera qualsiasi e lui crea subito qualcosa di magico... storia emozionante, i ricordi d'infanzia e l'inizio di una grande carriera! Mitico! ;-)
Ho iniziato a suonare costantemente con un HitOrgan Bontempi elettrico da 22 tasti. Verdolino. A ventola. Il Bontempi Hi-Fuga (e l'EKO Tiger Duo, che mi paicerebbe vder recensito nella rubrica) erano i miei sogni proibiti. Poi, per i 14 anni, mio padre mi regalò un organo GEM Galanti a due tastiere, da studio e con un arrangiatore elettronico... e a quel punto, l'Hi-Fuga era solo un ricordo.
Un BEL ricordo. Appena potevo, andavo nel negizio di giocattoli dell'EUR e mi mettevo a suonare (per la gioia dei proprietari).
Grazie per aver condviso con noi la tua esperienza...
It's an amazing video! I really liked your memories with your old organ. Thanks so much for your videos. Greetins from México
quello strumento descrive perfettamente tutta la strada che hai fatto. sono fiero di te, Claudio!
Love these videos thank you
Wonderful and in occasions very emotional to keep it up with your old Bontempi ! Siempreee !
It's incredible seeing you having so much effortless fun with such a simple instrument. I'm so jealous, I never learnt to play anything haha
Thank you so much for sharing Claudio,i totaly loved the video!!❤
That little Bontempi Organ played a major part in your life,
it helped shape you into the very person that you are to this day and during the duration of the video i could see the emotion in your face
as the memories came flooding back by hearing those wonderful sounds of your childhood.
...that little Bontempi Organ started you on a musical journey in which you should be very, very proud of!
I think you should definitely restore it and have it put in a nice glass display cabinet and have it mounted on the wall inside your studio alongside
the tapes you created and some pictures of you as a child.
I think it would be very fitting indeed and a focal point for visitors to your studio in which will attract much
attention and conversation and you can relive those memories time and time again when you speak about it.
Thanks for sharing your memories with us all.🙏
Back in the day I was OBSESSED with the Yamaha C55 organ. I never got one and at 8 years old clearly didnt realise the expense it would have been on my parents. I love discoveries like this!
You could probably modify the old one, switch out the power supply, put in a better amplifier circuit, and possibly a MIDI controller without much hassle.
Thank you for this. Much needed!
Awesome Claudio, the organ sounds so nice
My first ever keyboard was a plastic Bontempi organ, absolutely loved it and taught myself every song in the book that came with it. After that my parents got me Yamaha until I got my first synth at 16. Always got love for Bontempi! 👊💜👌
so happy for you. I love the part you play it. beautiful smile :). I always tell everyone if you know harmony you only need a toy piano and nothing more. cheers
Ultimate Variete Circus organ! 👍
we love you !
I wish I still had my Yamaha PSR-260
Loved this one!
Excelente maestro
I started out on a Bontempi keyboard too. Watching this really brings back memories!
Man i love your vids. They crack me up! Thank you
...at 14:28 min. i can see that you are happy....and the first thought in my mind was .....he was happy when he was a child and he remembers....and suddenly...YOU SAY IT, MAN...so i started to cry immediately....this is life, this is love, this is joy and happines 4EVER...i feel with you, brother : - ))
Awww ❤️
It reminds me to my first BONTEMPI organ... I was like you a kid, learning to play and now I´m on synthesizers. Great!
Love you DrMiX
Love this man
Little Claudio would find todays Claudio pretty kick ass! And so do we!
that was so cool, thanks for sharing that part of your life
Like from Odessa, Ukraine!
I loved this video. The look on your face when you fired it up and heard that sound for the first time..priceless. My first synth was a Roland JX3P. It was the very first thing I ever bought with my own money. Yes, I still have it, still play it, and yes, I still gig with it! It’s always been my baby.
Yeah, really enjoyed just listening to him riff. Really talented guy..
thank you for the inspiration
Will be another amazing synth video.
Very emotional video. Thanks
This is sooo cool :) ...love these machines
