Made on the M8! All sounds are from built-in synth engines. Presets from the community listed below!

From Avrilcadabra's SID presets pack:
  VOCAL-OH
  VOCAL-AH
  VOCAL-EH
  VOCAL-WHY
    These all use the macrosynth on shape 16 "vowel" if you're curious!

From Avrilcadabra's Modern pack:
  BASS PREDATR

From Trash80's DX7 FM patches:
  TUB BELLS

From the factory patches:
  /SYNTH/STRUM
 
All remaining percussion is from Trash80's awesome FM drum pack! Wouldn't be taking a stab at Weekly Beats without ya, Tim! For many obvious reasons, haha.

This evolves in kind of surprising ways but none of them are jarring, the bell really ties it all together for sure

Love the vocal sounds! M8?

Thanks everyone, really appreciate the comments!

Yup, M8 and all M8 synths! All the patches were from the community (I think I sliiightly modified some, on top of FX commands, but don't remember which). I updated the track description with patch credits

All these ingredients really come together in what you've whipped up

Wow, I had no idea what an M8 was before today, seeing you all post your tracks made on it -- hard core! impressive work.

Ahh FM, I can't help but love it! Really awesome sounds smile

Verrry cool. Loving the grittiness of those SID presets. Need to try them out for myself.

Thanks everyone!

Really recommend them! You can snag them, and some of Avril's other rad presets, here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tt22qvn6o4vsub7/AvrilC-%20presets.zip?e=1&dl=0
