In this series I break down the synth lead in the chorus of one of my favorite songs “Blinding Lights“ by The Weeknd. I Decided to use my Roland Jupiter 8 for this demonstration but feel free to try making the patch on your Juno 60, or your favorite VSTs Anthony’s musical touch as both composer and performer is connected with some of the most influential creative minds over the last 40 years. He’s composed and conducted original orchestral scores for over 80 feature films including Young Guns, Internal Affairs, The Man From Elysian Fields, 15 Minutes and Planes, Trains & Automobiles, been commissioned by the Los Angeles Philharmonic for his symphonic work “In the Family Way“, written over one thousand TV commercials in a myriad of musical styles, co-founded Levels Audio Post (LA’s premiere post production facility) and performed and arranged on big-box-office films and influential hit records such as Michael Jackson’s Thriller. His extensive work as a young arranger, orchestrator and performer for Quincy Jones, Jack Nitzsche, Lamont Dozier, Arthur Rubenstein and Giorgio Moroder was vital in launching his own career. His early years pioneering modular analog synthesizers along with his wide-ranging music scholarship positioned Anthony at the center of the music technology revolution.
