All I Can See From Above is Sadness

By rdomain on February 4, 2024 3:06 am

Main part was created on a modular synth and once recorded, I added various orchestral elements (Augmented Orchestra) with guitars (Fender Stratocaster/Guitar Rig) being the final touch.

This one is quite a journey so I hope you have time to enjoy the full immersive listen.



Here is a small video of the modular synth patch in action.  Give it a like/follow etc if you're IG inclined.  smile

That was indeed a journey! Ended up in a surprisingly tender place.

I took a peek at your IG - nice rig. I've heard good things about uLFO. Also I have a big soft spot for Three Sisters - my track this week was basically just that getting pinged with some pulses smile

Gave me visions of a close encounters-esque spaceship hovering above with it's pulsing lights in time with that buzzing/gurgling sound.  Ooooh the augmented orchestra adds such a nice pleasing element to it.  The guitars at the end give it a triumphant feel overcoming the sadness.  Dang those strings sound so good *swoon*

Starting with Stange sounds from a different galaxy, you warped me into a peaceful dreamworld. But no sadness.

Beautiful. I was especially taken by the rich, diverse landscape of textures you created, really well sculpted and dynamic. I know that sounds dry but I appreciate the attention to detail there lol

Love the modular patch (wow, what a rack you've put together!) and the end section with distorted guitar and strings blends really really well. Great arrangement!

Thanks for the lovely words and taking the time to listen.  I'll get round to doing some listening and commenting over the coming week.  I've just been super busy with work as it's the start school term here.  So much prep.  :-/
