blue sands of mars

Happy with how this one turned out, inspired by the blue sands of mars, if you haven't seen them its worth a google search.  First time using the vocoder on the microkorg, used minimally but it was fun.

Wow... Nice one... This beat is really pushing... This snake like hihats amazing and give a bit of desert feel.
With this nice sysnths in background it has to be the blue dunes of mars big_smile

whoa, just looked at the image

it's a crazy world/universe we are living.  incredible.

great track!!  very ethereal and outworldly.  fits the topic/image perfectly.  loving the reversed drums and +1 on those snake rattle hihats.  some crazy space snake slithering in the blue sand.

Excellent vibe and lovely IDM type drums. A great song here...

The built-in degradation in the delay is absolutely fantastic. Plus the theme and discovering those marvellous martian pictures... You made my day, Sir!

Wow, that’s a marathon session of listening, thanks so much for all your comments and feedback, greatly appreciated!  I hope you have more time now to work on your own music, I’m always excited to hear what you have for us

Catchy Rhythm. Super mod retro feel. Got vocoder... must use it! came out really well.

Otherworldly. Vocoder vocals add an almost-percusive element.
