Weekly Headless M8

First M8 Headless track! Written on both my Steamdeck and PC via Web display.
Such a fun little piece of kit, quickly re-sparking my love for trackers. I challenged myself to create all the sounds from the M8 itself, other than drums which are from an old JDS library I've had since before WeeklyBeats was a thing!
This tune was uploaded 30 seconds before submission deadline in true WB fashion
I rendered the tune out directly on the M8 and then my PC wouldn't read the MicroSD with 3 minutes to go, the clock was racing. Then I discovered that it was rendered as a WAV (which is awesome!) but I then had to throw it into SoundForge and export with 60 seconds to go lol.
It's definitely a bit quiet but hey, it's my first go with this awesome thing and I can't wait to get better with it!
I love how quickly the LSDJ and Piggy Tracker days came back to me with this thing, and the general stuff I've picked up in REASON over the years was somehow helping me design some (probably pretty average) synth and bass sounds. I also used a lot of reverb, because I could.
