Rush Subdivisions ~ Vintage Synthesizer Recreation ~ RetroSound

(c)2007-24 by RetroSound

One of my favorite tracks from the 80s.
Subdivisions by the canadian prog rock group Rush, released as the second single from their 1982 album Signals. Written and produced by Rush.

featured: Moog Minimoog, the Oberheim OB-X and the Moog Taurus bass pedals

This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks.
My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers.
Check out the original songs with the original artists here on YouTube.
Thank you.

The first Rush song i ever heard. Absolutely amazing 42 years later.

[Shred_The_Weapon]

My favorite Rush composition. It came out when I was 2 years old, and I didn’t first hear it until I was 23, but I otherwise feel like Neil (May he Rest In Peace) was writing my life story.

Takes me back to September 1982 when I was 15 and hearing this for the first time.
Having this without guitar means I can use it as a backing track for my practice 😊😊 thank you ❤

As you are playing I can hear Geddy Lee singing the lyrics in my head. Being Canadian Rush in one of my favorite bands. They inspired me to get the Taurus pedals a long time ago and I still have them! I can remember seeing them in Toronto. We had side stage seats. We could not see Geddy or Alex very well but we had a great view of Neil Peart playing the drums. We really enjoyed watching him play. Thank you for the memories and well done!

Love a bit of the OBX. Great sounding synth. Just sounds so fresh and different to other synths. Can see why bands like Japan, Thompson Twins, etc used it. Another great demo by a talented man. Thanks for this and the wonderful tunes you did for us each week. Nice moog too your playing there.

Rush "Subdivisions", get in. You made my day.

[Hour.Of.The.Night.]

I admire your work in this direction. It always pleases me and gives me a good mood. Thanks!🎼🎶🎹🔥

Listening on quality headphones, this was unparalleled analog goodness, sweetness, and fatness in every way…outstanding performance too!

[Sharebear-yl]

Love love this work. Moog in action is super cool.

[cjtopher]

So very good. This one made my day. Thanks for sharing!

[Foxonian]

Glad you re-uploaded this again. Great work!

[VideoNOLA]

Lovely! As the Rush kids love to say, "Now try playing all the parts at once while singing and strapped to a bass guitar!"

[LowerWestSideStudio]

I'm so old I consider this newer Rush : )

Great job! Very well done. Thank you for sharing.

Diesmal wirklich seeehr nah am Original. Top! Woher bekommt man eigentlich all die nötigen song-spezifischen Hinweise zur Programmierung? Gibt es dazu irgendwo passende Patch Sheets? Oder ist das alles eher ein zeitintensives "trial and error"-Verfahren?

[darrinhowse]

Wow, sooo good, great job!! I don’t suppose you have any videos or pictures with the settings shown? I’m the guy that was bugging you last week for the Tom Sawyer solo settings. They were great and that’s what we’re going to use in our Rush tribute band. 🍻

Oh yes. Ami-Synthpower-Sound Made in Canada 😎. Geniale Band und für mich einer der besten Songs von Rush. Dazu ein erstklassiges Cover von Marko „Geddy“ Ettlich. 😊👍🏻👍🏻

[robbiehawkins]

that sounds really good. i would like to that those patch settings to see if i can get that same sound out of my obx8.

[naturesrecovery]

Very nice my friend, but 1 question, where those drums come from haha, great job. I was going to do this cover too, but I have to use the VST OB-X version haha. You have the actual physical keyboard :)

[marsupialmicron]

One of the best rock synth anthems. Did you program the drums? great job, that was harder than the synth parts I assume
