It sounds like a typical supersaw. You can easily make a similar sound combining two saws in different octaves, slightly detune one of them, put them in unison (I guess it is possible in the stage, I do not have one), on the amplitude envelope set the attack on a very low level, decay and sustain more than half the way up, short release, a taste of chorus, some reverb, low pass filter open to your taste. I believe it will get the job done.

Here's something to get you started. Try a few different accordions to get what you like - I blended in OSC2 with a sawtooth an octave up. As suggested by alex78, for the second synth I have a Supersaw on OSC1 and sawtooth on OSC2 an octave up with some effects. You could also try a "techno" sample in its place and possibly layer more instruments to fill it out but keep the accordion out front. Take care

Sounds like the basic techno sizzle synth pad + horns + accordion.
