@vert-hex: Thank you very much for your feedback :)

perfect eighties style pop song in a perfectly balanced mix

You always win the fun trophy 🏆 makes me think of Sinitta.

Fun retro piece! You beat me in 80s cheesiness this round I have to admit lol

could use some more volume on that groovy bass part!

I think you were visited in the night by the 3 ghosts: Stock, Aitken & Waterman :)

Fun music with well suited sounds too. I do not like the reverb on the snare, though. It un-glues the snare completely from the mix, becoming a distraction.

Ha @SilverPants is spot on with SAW. And absolutely nothing wrong with that. Happy happy stuff

Favorite KVR One Synth OSC 169 Songs

Hello all,
This is my 2nd participation in OSC! To be honest, i had a lot of fun working on this one using (and exploring at the same time) kHs ONE synth by Kilohearts. 

You can use any sound from my presets in your future tracks.
All sounds were created using only kHs ONE by Kilohearts from scratch. No samples are used.
Khs Reverb is used on some channels. The rest of DSPs / effects are Absolutely Native (Renoise).
You have the right to use any sound/preset in your future submissions, tracks or anything else. They are FREE.
*Kilohearts and KVR can include my presets pack \ and-or my bank in their download packs without my permission.
*keeping the full name of the pack*

Aquamarina (OSC198)

I have no degree in audio engineering but I learned through watching YouTube. I participate in the KVR One Synth Challenge. My first OSC was 169 which started on March 2023.

I make noise which mostly resembles music.
