I'll admit that I'm not that well versed in the "Deconstructed falling block aerobics puzzle type beat"-genre, but I would say that you nailed the sound.

Couldn't have said it better lol

Curious to know how you made this track, technically speaking? Daw, tracker etc?

There are so many interesting sounds throughout this. First half gives "a bunch of weird machines chaotically scurrying about in a room" vibes, and the second half feels like they've settled on a goal and are putting something together with funny hammers. Very whimsical and makes me think of Katamari Damacy. +1 from me for being curious about how this was made

Thanks for listening, both! @squelette -- It's done in Ableton @ 85BPM with varispeed fx on the fast parts done in iMovie @ 1.75xspeed (and additional hocketing in ableton @ 64th-notes). Sounds are gameboy advance soundfont w/ fm synth.

Thanks for listening! To add onto my comment directly above, the first half of this was originally written to general-MIDI instruments (incl. automated bending between specific pitches) and then re-synthesized in Synplant's "Genopatch" mode at a rate of one patch-per-16th-note to add homophony and re-accent the 16th-note grid to keep with genre convention.

Short wild puzzle for sure that's fun. Sorry you had some tech difficulties it sounds like. I like the part in the last 20 seconds a lot, may want to sample that

This is wild, all the glides and gurgling; it all sounds so whacky. Very fun and interesting 🙂
