Top 10 - Synth Riffs

[Kristy]

I thought "Ghostbusters" was composed by Huey Lewis and the News...

It was. Huey and guitarist Chris Hayes along with their manager filed a lawsuit on behalf of Chrysalis Records. Like in most of these cases, they signed a NDA and settled out of court with Ray Parker Jr and Sony Pictures. No one knows what the actual monetary settlement was. Parker to this day is still credited with writing the song.

A George Harrison "My Sweet Lord' moment, indeed.

Or "Chase" from the soundtrack of Midnight Run, used by Art Bell as his theme for Coast-to-Coast AM...

Daft Punk?"

[FORD]

Here's another contender for the Top 10

[Mushroom]

That video is wayyy tooo slow and half a shit list. What about…

Saga - On the Loose
Any Cars?
Journey
Night Ranger
Styx
Genesis - ABACAB?
Gary Wright
Gary Numan
The Fixx
ATF - Der Kommissr

Looks like I’m on my way to a new Top 10!

Honorable mention: =VH= Jump! Fuck Yeah!

[Nickdfresh]

Depeche Mode def should be top ten:

No NIN? WTF:

Howard Jones should probably make at least a Top 25 synth riff list, if not the Top 10...

[twonabomber]

Saw Howard Jones and Midge Ure a month ago. Plenty of synth riffage.

[Kristy]

Nope. Not even close.

[FORD]

Ministry sucks

They're a lot better than Human League or Orchestral Bowel Movements In The Dark.

[Kristy]

I've watched a lot of the Doctor Mix videos. I was going to start a new thread/game, "Gay, Or European?" and Doctor Mix would be the first cuntestant.



I think he's more into R&B and that Italdisco shit.

That makes sense. The dude seems to be completely clueless. Synth was a popularized early 80's thing to me

[Kristy]

Ministry sucks

[FORD]

I probably would have thrown in some early Ministry too... even though Al Jourgensen claims to hate the record now....

[FORD]

How did Gary Numan not make his list, for that matter? Even Reznor loved that shit...

[twonabomber]

That guy is a dick.

No Thomas Dolby, Human League, New Order, Depeche Mode, or Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark riffs?

I think he's more into R&B and that Italdisco shit.
