I know they use analog synths but how is that sound even possible?

Magicians never reveal their secrets ...

But with an open mind and some drugs and the right equipment ...

I mean this tour has proved that they still got it and much more ...

Expect more mind fucking sounds toncome through the years ....

Only how the ac can do it ... god fucking bless these good people !

I could kind of see it being a synth that was heavily edited in some software, but the intro to peacebone man, it just sounds so analog but so chaotic and abstract, I gotta know how they did it.

First off, they use fx pedals on their synths, drums etc... sometimes multiple pedals connected at a time..then making samples and tweaking the sounds even more. ... all plays a huge role of the magic of AC's music. .... but even further, I believe it took hours and hours of jamming and playing around with sound and really knowing the full extent of their equipment. I feel like it probably took along time to develop a lot of their songs and probably a lot of recordings and playbacks to listen to. Maybe a chunk of it could be chalked up as chance too! In regards of how recording and using feedbacks to songs..

Panda and avey pressed the demo button at the same time while Deakin and Geologist made the tea.

I always assumed it was Kristin's accordion run thru some fx for some reason. I've brought this up before but nobody else seemed to agree so idk.

Sounds like an arpeggio run through a whammy/pitch shift effect to me.
