Depeche Mode's "It's Called a Heart" [live cover on PO-33 & 35]

Did a live cover of Depeche Mode's "It's Called a Heart" using two Pocket Operators PO-33 and PO-35. The singing parts are played on the keyboard using the PO-35's vocal synthesis, whereas the PO-33 handles the melodic samples and most of the drums. I tried to stay as close to the original as possible down to each individual drum hit, but it took quite some planning and practicing to fit things into these limited devices...
