Vangelis is such a iconic person in the synthesizer world so here is a little good news from him:

It seems to have taken a little ISS Bribing (TM) and some out of this world inspiration but its coming soon!

Sample track:

I have to say, I'm a big fan of what he did for Blade Runner of course. I am also really impressed by the way that he seems to work and how he does most of his playing with live takes.

However, it seems that the sample track consists of what seem like orchestral samples-- I think that is interesting in its own way, but for me it's not nearly as interesting as what a bunch of synthesizers, modern and older, might sound like played by him in 2016!
