One of the synthesiser pioneers is no longer with us. Someone who was one of my musical heroes, and a great inspiration :cry:

I have to confess I never paid attention to his work.
Anything in particular to recommend?

"Snowflakes are Dancing" especially "The Old Castle"
"Tomita's Planets" set volume to 11 for "Mars" :)

P.S.
Somewhere on youtube there is a short excerpt of him building his classic whistle sound for "When you wish upon a star"


found it :)
