I really really like that deep vocal patch. What are you using for that? Also, the almost mechanical build about a third through gave me chills.
Soooo deep and moody at the start, that's sweet in itself, but then the nebula build-ups and releases just knock me off my feet each time! Glorious stuff, as always mate 
WOW! The build-up, instrumentation and variety is soooo excellent! And the melodies have a great emotional impact, too. In my humble opinion, this is your most elaborated track so far!

thanks for all the nice comments and loving this week's submissions by you all!
As far as the "deep vocal patch", I'm guessing you mean the opening sound and the sound I've pretty much used in all of the tracks since I started this. It's a Piano preset from Ableton I slightly adjusted (meaning I removed 1 of the 2 sounds on the preset, added reverb, the end)
It works good in the low and high register and it just seems to get the process going for me.
I'm not much of a sound designer, though I definitely appreciate the people who can make a burp sound like a violin!
Even though I have way too many patches/presets/sounds to dream of, I'm trying to stick to a few so I can keep some sort of theme or style. (at least that's what my tiny brain hopes for) Thanks again!
That is nuts. It sounds like a classic vocal/choir patch but super muffled. There's an almost "oo" formant quality to the tail. And I had noticed you use it often, I just finally had to know what it was

Yeah it def has a muffled sound to it, originally the preset was called Lost Ship and had a clanky sound to it. So it kinda gave the "underwater documentary" feel. Not a clue how it was made, just know I love that sound yay ableton!
Ohhh my god. This is amazing.
Ever since I saw you mention "lost ship" I can't get the image of an underwater exploratory adventure out of my mind.
Lovely restraint with a very tasteful build. Really enjoy where the track takes you!
Some very nice sounds and melodies in this, plus just an overall cool vibe. I dig it.
EPIC!! (I somehow missed this one last week) Excellent, detailed work, Tone Matrix.
