On en profite pour le faire parler de son éducation musicale, qui a commencé par une passion pour les musiques industrielles et deux groupes en particulier : les Allemands de D.A.F. et les Anglais de Nitzer Ebb. Il achète alors le synthé emblématique de ces pionniers de l’electro : le Korg MS20.

Traduction : We take the opportunity to talk about his musical education, which began with a passion for industrial music and two groups in particular: the Germans of D.A.F. and the English by Nitzer Ebb. He then bought the iconic synth of these pioneers of electro: the Korg MS20.

In the official leaked multitrack stems of "Lost in the Fire" by Gesaffelstein and The Weeknd, one of the audio stems is named after the Eventide H3500 Harmonizer, suggesting that it was used in the production of the track, specifically on The Weeknd's vocal stems.

One of the leaked stems is titled "H3500", directly referencing the Eventide H3500 Harmonizer.

While the source of the stems is not an official public release, they have circulated widely within producer communities and are consistent with the finalized mix, indicating authenticity.

In the official leaked stems of the track, some of the drum tracks were labeled DFAM, suggesting a Moog DFAM was used.

While the stems were not released through official channels, they are widely recognized among music production communities and closely match the elements heard in the final mix. The distinct analog drum textures present in the track are also consistent with the Moog DFAM’s signature sound, further supporting its use in the production.
