Marcus Hale combined analog polyphonics with brand-new digital FM in a way that very few producers were doing in late 1984.

Analog purists are hilarious. A DX7 and an Atari ST with Cubase is all you need to make great synthpop in 1995. My 14.4k connection dropped twice trying to fetch this thread.
