"The Bells"

Detroit legend Jeff Mill's "The Bells", first in its original mix, followed by the Montpelier Philharmonic Orchestra.......what an awesome concept, to play one of the most legendary Detroit Techno anthems by a full-out orchestra, with Jeff Mills programming drums on the TR-909. SICK.

The original.
Not many people know this, but the sound that sound that was made to produce Mill's "Bell" sounds was actually a patch taken from the Yamaha DX7 synthesizer.
