Another M8 track. This started out (starts out) in one place and ended up somewhere rather different through some iterative resampling and a couple of hours "working" on the track in bed on Sunday morning. Time well spent. Both parts are here so maybe the start is a bit of a fake-out.

Nice!! The "blowing bubbles under water" sounding synth at 1:05 is such a great sound! Fits really well with the name you chose haha.  I think I like the first part a bit more than the last part (though the last part is also fun).  The first part is weird-good in a way that really scratches my brain.

Second the bubble synth - great patch! The whole track is bright and energetic. Great percussion and fun glitches!

Love the jazzy way that the melody moves around those parallel chords.
The bubble synth is great, but lets not forget the super fun slidey lead that comes just before it.
Also love the switchup to that darker more relaxed second part. Some very nice bubbles in there too.

loving all the bendy notes!

Really digging how this opens up; love that switch up in the middle.

Then when things really quiet down and that dark morphic groove sets in, it's invigorating. (Love the subs and drones + harmonies there)
