Berlin School arpeggiated synths always growing... This one is hipnotic, man! Please make it longer smile

Will press play again until you make a remix!

awesome when the chords come in. epic.

Man, that sucks (the food poisoning)!! Get well soon!

But regarding this track: awesome indeed! Sounds so rich and full. Nice blend with the field recording. May i ask what synth makes the bassy arpeggiated sounds? I think i've heard this one on several of your tracks and i like it a lot! 

Great track, but I'm also wishing it would've gone on longer smile

Hope you're feeling better.

Thank you! Food poisoning has come and gone. Now need to think of another excuse for next weekend...oh, I know, 6 Japanese tourists staying in my apartment! (long story)

Erm...anyway, to your question, you mean the stabby synth sound in the beginning? That is the Korg Volca Bass (again), I don't have a lot of analog gear so I tend to really milk the stuff I have...For that sound I think I had the LFO set to max so there was some kind of ring modulation going on which almost made it sound like it had a sub bass playing along with it.

ahhh! Thanks a lot, i should have known that smile I'm starting to get a (late) craving for this little machine.

I'm starting to feel like I should check out these Volcas, even though I'd sworn off hardware the last time I forked out money to upgrade Komplete Ultimate... (and here I've been submitting Korg Gadget tracks a lot lately, leaving my main rig collecting dust) Nice work, and thanks for making me consider hardware again.. haha.
