Audiorealism ReDominator – Gearjunkies review
Today we are going back into time to the beginning of the 90s. One sound changed a whole part of the dance music scene.

But that one sound got very famous with the release of Human Resource’s Dominator. This sound was later dubbed a Hoover since it sounded a little like a vacuumcleaner. This massive sound came from a small synth called the Roland Alpha Juno 2. Audiorealism took on the big task of recreating this old love of many of us into ReDominator.
