Okay, this was a weird one. Time ran tight this week since I started it off being sick for two days and then had a lot of work. So I picked up this wip that I considered about 80% done and then it just never came quite together...? It's more an amalgamation of interesting snippets and ideas that happen in a somewhat logical order but don't necessarily evolve or go anywhere, like it's missing a storyline... but week's coming to an end and I'm not NOT going to submit because I think I've taken this as far as it can go. Fittingly, the title is a result of random name generation.

Again, this was made 100% on the M8. I'm actually quite happy with some of the sound design on this. That weird main clicky-sound is actually a very low note played with the Macrosynth CSAW Oscillator, using it to ping the LP Filter of the M8. Then there's some chaotic, texture-rich resampling, that super tight FM-Bass-Patch coming in on the second half and I think the pad sounds and chords turned out nice. So I'm gonna file this one under learning experience. wink

I enjoyed this alot, especially that clicky sound is so sexy. Overall a very good mix, will definitely fav this 👍

I really like this one. Feels like I'm transported to another dimension and watching the ocean from an underwater observatory in a nightclub.

geez, doesn't sound wip at all! really nice. I LOVE pushing the M8 engines into weird spots! The weird clicky sound came out really cool, love how it evolves and varies throughout the track.

Strong demoscene vibes (ala Necros) in parts & cool use of macrosynth

Loving those minute details!

Cheers! It's fantastic how the tracker layout always has these FX columns looking at you like "...you sure that's it?" Moves me to add more weirdness a lot of the time.

Kinda missed out on all the demoscene stuff, maybe I'll go down that rabbit hole some time.
