I remembered the effect

"... that the view of the tremendous and ever-moving glacier had produced upon my mind when I first saw it."

Vocal snippet of me reading that line from "Frankenstein" run through Blooper, chopped up and made jittery
Poorly played kalimba from a poorly assembled kalimba kit run through Drolo Strands
Had to learn how to program NRPNs in order to get the quasi-sidechained sound used for the synth bass on my Prophet 6
Drum sounds from Prophet and PSS-470 programmed on Digitakt (alongside said NRPNs)
"Melody" chords on ESQ-1 with bandpass emphasis via DBA Rooms (and because that was not enough, BitQuest! afterwards)
Drone pad from Alpha Juno, an old patch that I enjoy the very long filter sweep on

Originally there was going to be a part on Bass VI but, while I liked parts of it, it was getting in the way of advancing the song. Maybe the ideas shall be used in the future, or maybe forgotten forever!
I was going to try to do some arrangement in some old music software that I bought through Steam years ago, but my computer is also very old and Steam has decided that it no longer wants to open, so the past is locked away forever or until I get a new computer (probably forever).

Love it still dancey but in a different way. Slow dancey.  There's all these Tron like beeps and boops that I adore too.

Pristine vibes here. Nighttime bus through the city vibes.

Thanks! That is probably the poorly played kalimba!
