Synth = Formula 1 Racecar: Vintage Yamaha DX100 Commercial

I miss the days when we were this excited about synthesizers:

I use this synth regularly and it’s a lot like that. Whenever you want a screaming racecar sounds, fire up your DX10 and let it rip.

I remember this commmercial from when I was a kid.
man this brings me back!

We almost NEVER see adverts for musical instruments these days.
Did Roland EVER advertise anything?

Very awesome, very 80’s, I only wish we had cool commercials like this out today, what a flashback that is.

Here’s another advertisement with a very 80’s style, this time a print ad of a synth I own, the Roland Super JX-10: http://www.flickr.com/photos/andrewswihart/388609901/

I miss my DX100, but I don’t think I ever put my helmet on to play it. :D
