Oh man, the bass chops and video computer sounds in the middle and end are awesome. Sounds like SEGA up to no good.  Great melodies and lovely sounds too!

Really beautiful FM sounds, and got damn @ that bass growl. Though I think the star of the show are those metallic percussion elements. Great use of melody in a rhythmically-driven track too!

Dubstep really ain't my thing, and this piece hasn't changed my mind, but the other parts are awesome.

I am such a sucker for FM, and you've nailed this! That bassss and the bells following afterward. Great stuff!

Ayy thanks!

Glad you like it! I mostly started out with a chord progression on FL Studio, and it began to come together by trying to view genesis instruments as substitutes for EDM elements like bass, chords, arps and so on. Being limited to 6 voices on the FM chip and 4 on the PSG meant that the challenge was more about condensing things down to the limitations of the console. The mixing itself wasn't particularly complex, just a few frequency tweaks here and there and a lil' bit of panning. I found it much easier to tackle this by figuring out the structure early on in terms of intro, builds and drops. Hope this helps!

Hope you managed to clean off all of the d i r t

Thank you!

Glad you like it!

Thank you! I spent quite a bit of time tinkering with the FM to make weird-ass sounds lmao

I hope I can change your mind one day

Cheers antler, that means a lot!
