I wasn't sure I would make it this week. After weeks of pushing, and a lot of music in the last couple in particular, I'm tired. I am weary. I honestly thought about just skipping or quitting for the first time this week, but y'all spurred me on, and I've kept it going another week. This started with that arp on the TEO-5, and then I built around it on the M8. It's simple and doesn't necessarily have a lot of variety, but mostly just plays with dynamics. Part of me feels self-conscious or like that's boring (it probably is), but again, I'm tired, and it also fits where I'm at right now.

› The emotional details for for those who care

love me some synthwaves

Great track, great vibes and sound design.

Nice work on the track, major vaporwave vibes from this one.

Using that Teo the way the lord intended! Love that gated snare too. One week at a time heart

Daaaaaamn that TEO5 sounds good. Nice one

love a good shaker. great classic vibe to this, reminds me of early m83, maybe between "dead cities" and "saturdays", iirc

That synth bass/drum combo is soooo good!  Ooooh then that lead flies in and saves the day.  Glad you pushed through, this is a head nodder!

Glad you kept at it! This is a very nice and chill synthwave bop. Very much enjoyed this.

I get the feeling of creative fatigue. You still managed to push

..through. Hopefully you'll look back at this more positive with some time, it's a solid track! heart

Love the sounds man! I am happy you decided not to skip. Yes, another 41 weeks looks daunting and I also know that some periods will be extra challenging (for me at least) as there are these episodes where all routines get scrambled up. We'll just have to take them one week at a time, I guess.

solid vapors! I think the point of this kinda vibe is not too much variation, so I think it hit the spot. like that purple car gif driving into the grid sunset, minor bumps in the road. That said, I saw it in the list, was looking forward to it, and then it played through me coding so I had to come back to it. I guess point made - it does tend to fade into the background rather than catch the ear, at least for me this one time. but that's not necessarily a bad thing smile it's a solid track, and I'm very happy you pushed through the uninspired times! keeping that streak alive hehe

you've done 12 weeks already, that's great! don't want to be adding to any push or pressure if you don't feel like creating for a while but if it helps you as much as it helps me, maybe it's worth finding the time for. lovely work as usual and your leads kills every time.

this is so cool!!! i love the atmosphere on this track so much

Sick track man. I second the M83 vibes. I’m glad you’re sticking with it. I feel the drain too. Keep on keeping on as long as it brings you joy.

Inspiring stuff! The little pad layer rising subtly around 40 secs is like the perfect way to grab me. Then you hit the pitch bends on the lead. heart

Such rich synth patches and lush filter fun!

Beautifully addictive arps in this one! Love the patterns and processing here. 😊

That lead is GORGEOUS. 🤩

you always surprise me with your musical vibe !!! very immersive !! well done

ohhh yessss love the lowfi snare, the pads are GORGEOUS, the plucks sound wonderful
AHAHHH yes this LEAD!!!

I can really really chill out to this.

I think the track's vibe is solid enough to work without too much variation. I actually think that it's good to let good ideas repeat/play out for a longer time. Agreed with others about the gorgeous lead! Nice job :3

I hear the dynamics and it has enough variations for me and before reading your comment i thought: You are creative and productive again :-)..

Beautiful!

heart

love those chords, really hypnotic and pretty

On some real shit, i relate to what you're saying. Very happy to hear you managed to push through and gifted us this banger.

We'll be here whenever you drop. Next week or whenever smile

Love it. Really good mood in this one!
