Digitone Keys: Out Run - Magical Sound Shower [live cover]

A live performance of one of the OutRun main themes: "Magical Sound Shower" using the Elektron Digitone Keys.

All audio comes directly from the unit, with its four audio tracks. Track 1 and 2 is played live, whereas Track 3 and 4 is controlled by the Digitone Keys built-in sequencer, doing bass and drums.

Out Run was created by SEGA in 1986, at the time a breakthrough in arcade gaming.
The soundtrack was composed by Hiroshi Kawaguchi, and the other songs in the game are "Passing Breeze", "Splash Wave" and "Last Wave".

The best use of this awesome machine live solo I'v seen so far.
Outstanding.

Great performance, that includes driving part which was also absolutely flawless! 😁

Ahh, I remember that game, played it at the arcade, and one of the best things about the game was listening to the music while racing the car, nice cover, Kinda makes me wish they would make a new VR version of Outrun with the same music.

Outstanding performance! This kind of music is perfect for such an instrument. I regularly listen to c64 remixes so I was excited to found someone who actually perform something like this.

NEXT LEVEL!!!! What dude this is unreal!!! So stylish I'm crying.

[teomoustakas]

Amazing! One of the greatest gaming tunes recreated so beautiful! Thank you for bringing back memories

[BigBadBonzo]

I've watched this video multiple times. It's just so dang good.

Zero dislikes. Rare feat for YouTube. This is the best performance yet with this one-of-a-kind but much-maligned fm synth/keyboard/sequencer. I played the hell out of this game at the bowling alley growing up.

The Digitone Keys looks very cool with that stand :D

[Noiretranquility]

Whaa, did you just.. hahaha wow flawless!

[thordy]

This is amazing! Absolutely killed the solo section!

[jakobholm]

Ah, the afternoons at the arcade all come back to me... Thanks!

[seanleeduncan]

Sick! Takes me back to watching the flashing lines on the screen whilst waiting and hoping the game would load on the C64.

[syncworm]

Soo coool! Sounds of my childhood! Nicely done!

[ncapone]

That solo is some Tony Banks stuff! Sounding great!

[BrianFunkMusic]

This is awesome! Great work! The sounds are spot on too!

[robert__]

[ifaber]

Very nice FM sounds and demo with Digitone :-D

[chemsilva]

Great job man! Can I ask you a question? Do you program every instrument in this track, or you used a MIDI file for this purpose? I loved the entire song, the solo you made was great too! Greetings
