I tried to do a Halloween-ish thing but it doesn't sound a whole lot different to my normal stuff (A/B/A/end). Oh well. This is kind of an exercise in manipulating cutoff values to create transitions. Pulled a Paisleyfrog and pitched down a vocal sample from an old movie smile

Awesome. I think Carnival of Souls has been in my sample fodder folder for years and I haven’t used it yet. As per normal, great samples and clipping.

Really like the percussiveness of this one - all lays against the pads well, and gives a great backdrop for the clips to play against. Speaking of which, the middle slow section is really effective.

I am very amused that this week you “pulled a paisleyfrog”. This week I pulled a MRDRCAT and created a sampler instrument so I could rhythmically play my sample big_smile

Great use of those samples (underrated film that) and I think you pulled off a Halloween feel for sure, albeit a more modernised one. I mean the opening synths have pretty strong Carpenter vibes, it doesn't get more Halloween than that.  Nice work
