My camera was held in position by other keyboards and selotape.

I learnt this from the item fanfare in Metroid 2, however the item fanfare tune is pretty similar accross all the metroid games. 


Before recording this I had been playing my sythesizers for hours, experimenting with controlling the Teisco 60f synth with the Roland SH09 but my teisco synth is a bit broken, the external control inputs don't work properly, the KCV does sort of but it's still a bit iffy. In fact the whole synth is a bit iffy! Some switches need to be jiggled just right and some keys retrigger and don't sound sometimes. It gives it character but I wish it worked like new sometimes. 
However, combined, my synthesizers are twice as powerful, twice as deadly!!!
