This is my submission for the One Synth Challenge 127 where we could choose any one U-He synth (Hive 2 came out just before this round). I picked Zebralette because I always wanted to properly dive into that synth which is a sound design power house. It has a very unusual workflow compared to Virtual Analog style synthesizers, but it's totally worth it. Plus, it is amazingly CPU efficient for what it is capable of. 

This piece is about the situation where loved ones are leaving on a new journey. I am left behind with torn feelings. On the one hand side I know they won't be available to me as much as they used to. I have to let them go. On the other hand side, I wish them all the best from the bottom of my heart and it is exciting to see them take big steps forward into new territory, and to support them as well as I can. 
Though I often feel like the one who is left behind, I believe I am here for a purpose and I don't have to be afraid of the future. (Actually I'm taking steps forward, too ... only it's not very obvious ;)

Watching Them Go (One Synth Challenge #127 - Any one U-He - Zebralette)

Hi there ! Welcome to my SC page. Feel free to explore some of my work, and if you would like, leave a comment.  Enjoy ! ;)

I make noise which mostly resembles music.

I am a composer and producer of electronic music of various kinds. My influences include Hip Hop, Big Beat and Electronica.

Hi there, thanks for peeking in :)

I am student of physics, and I love to make music, and I love synthesizers. 

I see music as a gift. 
"Every song, every single melody
Everything I play and sing I dedicate to thee.
Oh my lord, that is all I want to do:
Thank you for letting me be the tap it's going through.
It comes back to you."
