OOOSC #3

smc3

This is my contribution to OOOSC03. I had a lot of fun to use a few instruments that I don't normally use! Don't be stingy with suggestions for improvement! ;)  

I used a couple of Kontakt guitars and a bass and then ran them through Guitar Rig 6. Voices are from Emvoice.

LYRICS:
--------------
Who am I, this question burns,
Echoing deep within my heart.
Searching for the truest self,
That can make my spirit start.

Through the noise and busy days,
I must find a quiet space.
Listening closely to my soul,
Uncovering my inner grace.

Shedding layers, masks, and fears,
I uncover my authentic core.
Embracing all that I truly am,
Unlocking doors I hid before.

Exploring thoughts, emotions, dreams -
The journey of self-discovery.
Accepting both my light and dark,
Becoming who I'm meant to be.

Facing challenges with courage,
Letting go of what holds me back.
Trusting my intuition's voice,
Finding strength upon this track.

Aligning values, purpose, self -
Weaving threads into a whole.
Honoring my unique design,
Nurturing my restless soul.

Step by step, with patient care,
I reshape my life anew.
Discovering the person here,
The one that's always been true.

Embracing all my flaws and gifts,
I find a sense of wholeness.
Celebrating my authentic self,
My journey has made me whole.

Sharing this self-discovery,
I hope to inspire and guide.
For we all seek to uncover,
The essence that lies inside.

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

Enjoy.

My entry for OOOSC n. 3 in March 2025.

The Ennui

Lovingly created for the Out of One Synth Challenge for March '25. Challenge with this one was to use a provided drum loop and no other percussion. Bit of an experiment here using channel strip plugins and emulated mastering hardware. In addition to the drum loop, this features a Jupiter 8, OB-1 , Lush 2, GX-80, Octave Cat, a bunch of Thorns, Rhodes v8 and bx Oberhausen. Some harmonics courtesy of Hendy Amps The Oven. Mastering with an Amek Mastering Compressor and Knif Soma EQ and more warming with TEAC A-6100 all kept in check with an inevitable KClip3.

Title comes from my frustration at trying to render this out and failing. Much effort later and a studio emulation plugin swapped out, and here we are.

That's That Then

Harkening back to early Cure days. A song about shadows and memory. My crappy vocals and all.

Lyrics:
through the dark window from the outside
i watch shadow shift like memory
silhouettes dance across the empty room
while echos fade in time with your heart beat

the night whispers of a secret love
a flickering light from a distant land
even a shattered dream grows quietly
and we wonder how it all began

i sink beneath the waves that hold me
the water changes into sand
time disolves into eternity 
where your voice hold no demand

see how shadows chase an empty tide
drifting footsteps wash away
and everything grows quiet now
everything we left to yesterday 


The Night My Guide

for OOOSC#3, made on a hotel computer in about 2 hours, on a portable reaper install using just a break and some stock FX.
Kinda like Virtual Riot's Death By Amen, but worse.
