Thing is, I simply could not recreate the original vibe with anything other than those two Korg M1 sounds. When I decided to rework this song in Pro Tools 10 recently, I ported only the MIDI tracks over from my PC and started choosing all new virtual instruments to play the parts. Later on, these sounds are joined by some lead synthesizer and clavinet. Anyway, two distinctive M1 sounds are what started out this track at the time, followed by some hard-driving synth bass and slamming drums, and a bit of raw B3 organ. The first M1 sound you will here in this recording is still in use today as the theme song to the radio program 'Marketplace' from American Public Radio. I had just purchased a used Korg M1 at the time, and though it's 128 factory sounds had already been used on thousands of pop recordings, I was oblivious to this since I was going through a period of time in my life where I listened to absolutely no popular music (if I could help it). The title of this track comes from combining the name of recording artist Gino Vannelli, whose keyboard sounds and grooves definitely influenced this composition, and the film The Empire Strikes Back, which was playing on cable TV the afternoon I decided to finish this track instead of watching TV. Compared to my studio today, these were the dark ages!īut I managed to create some memorable tracks. I had recently left my old 4-track behind, in favor of sequencing everything in Cakewalk for Windows, on Windows 3.0, running on a Intel 386-based computer. My studio consisted of a bunch of hardware synthesizers, an audio mixer, a few outboard effects such as reverb and a DAT machine to mix down things too.
