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.

@puggawompy 2 года назад

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.

@OliverBusse 2 года назад

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 :-)

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

@astrogerard 2 года назад

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.

@Th3rdFloor 2 года назад

very well said!!

@markstevens5442 2 года назад

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 :)

@Pulsonar 2 года назад

@charbokh 2 года назад

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.

@xorpheous 2 года назад

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. :)

@gcoudert 2 года назад

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 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!

@giancarlo11071976 2 года назад

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.

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.

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.

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.🙏

Imaginte telling the kid Doctor Mix that one day he would carry his bontempi into a studio filled with just about the latest and greates synths ever, and that he would even spend money on getting a SECOND bontempi, to play his bontempi and not all the other great keyboards in the studio.

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.

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

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.
