Back in the eighties in Cheltenham, England, I had a couple of acquaintances, Julian Ilett (has his own KZitem channel - still crazy smart with electronics) and Brett Gossage (he had somehow acquired a Yamaha DX1 - rare then!). Anyway, the pair of them spent a few weeks in a dingy top flat on the London Road developing their own four note polyphonic Fairlight using a Sinclair ZX Spectrum and a memory / A/D/A board of their own design. I think it cost less than £100 and worked brilliantly. I still have a recording of their cover of ‘Drive’ by the Cars which made great use of their ‘Fairlight’ for the backing vocals. Very happy days and great respect for those two crazy guys.

@@Art-zs6sl Electronic music production is extremely complicated and takes years of hard work before you can make anything good. But it's easier now than it was when EDM started blowing up in the late oughts/early 2010s, because back then, we didn't have nearly as many resources, but people were complaining that "that's not real music, you just press play on a computer". In reality, there's composition, which involves knowing all about music theory from voice leading to arrangement; there's mixing and mastering which takes years of practice to do well; there's TASTE which can only be developed individually through years of exposure to different kinds of music; and then there's the "it" factor of having all the technical skills and taste, and also being able to be true and original AND marketable. Electronic music production is not as complex as composing classical for an orchestra, but it's a lot closer to that than just playing an instrument is.
