High school students cover Michael Jackson’s thriller using 11 vintage and modern synths

Students at Jessheim high school in Norway just had a blast covering Michael Jackson’s THRILLER.

What’s most remarkable is the amount and quality of the gear on show here – everything from vintage synths such as Roland’s Juno-60 and Jupiter-6 to modern machines including ASM’s HydraSynth and the Arturia MicroBrute. Look out for an Ensoniq SQ-1, Casio CZ-1000, Yamaha SY99 and Korg X50 on the stage, too.

Dressed in suitably spooky attire, the nine students involved do a great job behind the keys, drums and congas, with Michael Jackson’s vocal being the only part of the original track to be used.
