Man, first of all... I had that illustration in some UFO book when I was a kid... AND I LOVED IT. Do you know the author, by any chance?
Second, my track from this week it was an attemp to emulate some of your chippy stuff... and my MilkyTRacker setup went terribly wrong 
. Big respect anyway
Lastly, I'm really loving all that funkyness you're bringing this year. Man, it really feels challenging to get that swing with such a sparse samples. I'll definetely have to give Klistrack a go, and I hope it doesn't get messy with the Jack daemon like MilkyTracker.
Downloaded and faved, of course

Cheers man! Glad you liking teh phunk.
The artist is Chris Foss btw
Digging the spacy synths. I hope Colonel Tardigrade survives and is able to strike back at those nefarious Mirrorpedes!

Thank you mate! You made my day
About a third of the way in when the beat drops out... HOT. Sick track, sick title.
Dig the track, although would like to see a proper ending on it!
Are you writing on a netbook, or can Klystrack run on handhelds?
Man klystrack is so dope.... but I could never get it not to crash on my PC =/
c00l alien vibes!
Lovin' the arpy lead and chunk-laden funk backing - the abrupt EoS works for me - faivritted!
If only Chris Foss had been able to have his designs used in the doomed Jodorowsky Dune!

Yeah endings are what gets rushed when I'm tight on time I usually keep tracks loopable until the very end.

Running it on a tiny netbook (that is also a tablet w detachable keyboard), don't think trackers can work too well on keyboard-less devices :\

Oh man sad to hear! When does it crash? Did you try the latest stable version? Or latest beta?

Thanks! Yeah that's the bit that justified making the track

Buy the next issue to find out!

Cheers, I'm pretty happy with that wah-guitarp. Otherwise my sound design is super crude here - Klystrack can do very nice stuff but I just made crunchy noise by habit
I haven't tried it in years now, maybe I should try again
Go for it man! There's some awesome tutes here:

His Klystrack stuff is stupidly good!

Lsdj & lgpt users would disagree with you on that one!
I think nitrotracker also works well on the nds, but it does have a virtual keyboard which helps.

Doh, I was thinking touchscreens not gamepads, my bad!
Definitely wanna make some piggy tracks this year again! (Otoh didn't really find nitro very usable myself)
Title sucked me in and those arps kept me there. Love the bass + percussion so much
That lead synth is so effing cool! How do you model something like that?
It is great fun to listen to all that sounds.
I must find out how you did this.

Here's the workfile in case you guys want to take a peek.

You are most likely to be disappointed tho
I was mostly just selecting multiple waveforms at once (it does a logical AND operation between them) until something sounds interesting, and then maybe a bit of filtering on top. Klystrack actually does a lot of nifty things like say FM synthesis, but my grasp of it is still pretty poor.
P.S.
That dropbox link ain't gonna live forever but might include it in the examples folder come next Klystrack release.
You had me at "tardigrade." But the track itself is great--low res funkiness, great swirly lead, sounds like tardigrade vocals in there, too! Awesome stuff, and tardigrade-approved!

I admit I was relying on tardigrade charm to carry me to fame and stardom. Ain't no biz as dirty as showbiz!
filtered synth that enters shortly after the beginning is fucking great!
Ahhhh filters once again.... !!! Nice one pickle. What platform is this for?
