Phew, I didn't have much time this week. I only had about 6 hours.
I remembered that I saved a sample of ye olde not-so-smartphone glitching out the speakers and just went with it.

I'm not too dissatisfied with the result, but it could do with better mixing/stereo-fielding/mastering.

I hope you are all having a good time and are in good health!
*hugs*

Whelp, I immediately thought my cell phone was glitching out MY speakers, lol. Great idea, and fantastic execution!

This is anxiety inducing in the first two minutes but once the pads arrive the piece gets a strange Future Sound Of London vibe that I like.

lol know that sound well. Great idea to turn that into a song!

Like what you did with some of the detuning, it is moving all track long but with mixed feelings, well played!

Solid beat for sure, would've been neat if you pitched the glitch sounds to follow the chord progression, just for the heck of it

Damn you got me that phone sound big_smile doublechecked if it was mine hah. Nice deep vibe!

Not too shabby! I dig

love this from 1:45. all the sound design is very engaging and textured beautifully. nice track!

Interesting how you grabbed the cell interference and built this
Nice

I love this sample usage – I’d always thought about making use of this sound in a track too but never actually did it.

You did it really well here, great job making it feel like a cohesive part of the overall texture of the track rather than just a gimmick.

I sometimes miss the times where my small little not-so-smartphone would interact with my speakers, hehe.
Thanks!
