about

Flight of the Bumble Dee (1987)
Roland D10

The Roland D-10 and D-20 had hundreds of built in sounds and could play up to 8 of them at the same time which in 1987 was revolutionary.

I knew Rimsky-Korsakov’s Flight of the Bumblebee from my childhood days listening to classical music with my parents so this was a showcase of as many sounds changing and flying around as possible, all from one machine.

There’s a nod to electronic innovator Jean-Jacques Perry in the humour and rapid panning of sounds in this piece.
