This is great, pure vintage "electronic soundtrack" à la Moroder/Vangelis, great job with mainly one tool.  This is great, pure vintage "electronic soundtrack", love it. Using just one source for the sounds makes it cohesive but you achieved a great palette.

Whale Breath

This week's Disquiet Junto prompt challenged us to revisit something musical—a piece of software, an idea, a technique—that we couldn't get to work in the past, and to dedicate time to improving it, capturing the result in music.

I decided to go with my Sequential Prophet-6 analog synth. I had inherited it from an ex who moved out of the country, and for complicated reasons just never really connected with it as an instrument. Intellectually, I knew that it was a fantastic synth, but I didn't know how to make it mine, if that makes sense. I couldn't speak through it. What's worse, the last time I had fired it up, it exhibited a rare but not unknown bug where every sixth note would be extremely loud, rendering it unplayable.

But today I decided to try again, to give it a second chance. I set aside time to just play around with it, experimenting with patches and tweaking parameters. I realized that the volume bug wasn't happening, the synth was being cooperative. Eventually I landed on a set of ideas that I think work well together. Most importantly, I feel like I can hear my voice in this piece, through an instrument that I couldn't do that with before. I'm even playing the lead synth like I do an ebow guitar. 

What a great prompt and a great experience.

made entirely with NCH software. OMG i'd forgotten what depression feels like. this is awful. why bother with anything, life has no flavor. ugh. nightmares. and someone is in danger per nightmare. and mean home invaders. and irl so much chores before end of summer. good thing i have steel trapped against doing recreational drugs this year, because this would be the mindset to get into trouble.  hang in there other depressed people - and eat FIBER and fermented foods because the gut bacteria is in charge of us all.

i have antibiotic induced depression
