Cloudburst

You had a great evening with friends making some stick bread over the flames of a small campfire. You hear the crickets chirping, the cool air blowing through your hair and you take the last sip of beer left in your bottle and then head to bed.

After a great sleep you wake up surrounded by cats and prepare breakfast with your friends and you all have a great time and then suddenly the sky turns dark, strong gusts of wind surprise you and you quickly bring all the stuff back inside to not make it get swept away and only seconds after you are back inside you hear the first thunder and then the rain hits.

Glad all went well. Now you sit on the couch with a open window and quietly watch the rain fall down and the sound of thunder in the background while having a great time talking to each other.

Well that was exactly Saturday to Sunday for me and on classic apticx fashion i obviously did not finish my weeklybeat yet so being inspired by that calm mood i wrote this little thing where i tried to recreate the sound of wind rain and thunder on my m8 with just the wavsynth while creating the lush and warm pads to resemble the calm of sitting there at the window and looking out into the rain.

Not much happened this week besides that so im very happy i felt inspired in the end because besides working not much else happened.

Hope you all had a great week too!
