Michael Jackson | Dirty Diana | 1988 | "The opening sound character for "Dirty Diana," for example, was created by Denny Jaeger, a Synclavier expert and designer from the Bay Area. When Jackson heard about Jaeger and his library of new sound characters and soundscapes, he reached out and enlisted him for Bad. Jaeger's sounds ultimately appeared on both "Dirty Diana" and "Smooth Criminal." | The Atlantic | YouTube |
Giorgio Morooder | Cat People (Original Soundtrack)(album) | 1982 | Synthesizers: Synclavier II, Minimoog, Polymoog, Prophet 5, Roland Jupiter 8, Linn Drum Machine, Wurlitzer Electric | Discogs | YouTube |
Hazel O'Connor (Martin Rushent Producer) | Don't Touch Me | 1984 | "When endorsing Korg’s PSS-50 Programmable Super Section for a magazine advert, Rushent was enthusing about a record which “apart from voice” was “all written and performed on one synth” – that album was HAZEL O’CONNOR’s ‘Smile’. From it, the moody single ‘Don’t Touch Me’ was very art school Weimar Cabaret with some very passionate vocals from O’Connor, constructed around a Synclavier with its distinct period bass and brass sounds." | Electricity Club | YouTube |
Soft Cell | Tainted Love | 1981 | 'Ball credits Mike Thorne for his role in producing [Tainted Love]..."He put a Synclavier on Tainted Love when no one had heard of a digital synth before". | Electronic Sound issue 86 - March 2022 | YouTube |
