This thread was originally inspired by people discussing the famous synth sound used in remixes on Robin S.'s "Show Me Love" and Nightcrawlers' "Push the Feeling On", so here's an example of the same Korg M1 preset sound used on a tune released in 1989:
You can also hear that sound, briefly, on the William Orbit & Mark Moore remix of Prince's "Batdance", also from 1989. Both of these are fairly obscure though, so I think it really is either the MK remix of "Push the Feeling On" or the Stonebridge remix of "Show Me Love" that popularized that sound... But both of those remixes are from 1992, and I can't find any info on which of them was released first. Does anyone know?
