The Korg M1 piano and organ presets behind house

MAR 14 2017

A demonstration of the two Korg M1 presets, the organ bass and the piano, that are audible on an implausible number of house records from 1989 onward, played against the originals they appear on. It shows how much of a genre's sound can come down to a factory preset on one workstation keyboard, released in 1988 and sitting in nearly every studio.
