-------------------------------------------------------

Although OSC is currently celebrating its 200th anniversary, this track was created for the 198th challenge – a small tribute to the series that nevertheless captures the groove of the anniversary energy.

With 92 BPM, catchy harmonies, a concise bass hookline, and crisp kicks, FractiQ takes you straight to the dance floor. The melodic fractals weave together into a catchy tune that sticks in your mind.

Perfect for all fans of melodic music, hypnotic chords, and pulsating energy.

NJoy. Any feedback welcome.

The Pipers From The North
By Seap for One Synth Challenge 198, August 2025

Single synth of choice: Kult (Dawesome)

Each autumn, when the heather turned purple on the hills, the bagpipers came down from the highlands. At first, the village children heard only a faint drone, like the earth humming underfoot. They would freeze in their games, eyes wide, and scramble up into the oak trees to see better.

The sound grew, weaving and swelling, until it filled the valley like a storm of music—low drones rolling like thunder, sharp notes flashing like lightning. By the time the pipers emerged from the misted slopes, it was no longer a handful of men but an orchestra carried on the wind itself.

The villagers gathered in silence, listening. Year after year, the same mystery unfolded: a reminder that the mountains still breathed, and that the world above the clouds sent down its song to be heard.
