Cicada

By impbox on February 18, 2022 4:16 am

Burrowed deep underground for years, we finally dig towards the surface.
Shelled we slowly climb into position.
Cracking and unfolding we extract ourselves from our old self.
Leaping into the air, take flight, wings beating furiously against the air.

M8 one track only, fmsynth only, no presets.
(though the I've now made them presets on Matey)

This was a lot of fun, keen to do more.

sounds amazing, really love the minimalist groove and how it evolves. Great entry in the 1-track genre big_smile.

Also, I once ate some chocolate-covered cicadas. They were okay

this is so good - very sparse and chill using the smallest details to keep things interesting

So deep n funky - loving those chords

as if it gets jiggy with glitter, so tasty

One of the most inspiring things I've heard in a while, flawless (sincerely, congrats!) heart

Relaxing little chirping.

so minimalistic, yet so groovy

I love your instruments on this! It's so simple sound and still it paints so colorful picture smile

Really impressive use of the limitations. Groovy smile
