the silent drum sounds at the very end are fine

A beautiful sad work... it really unfolds towards the end.

nice changeups with the melodies, instrumentation and stereo delay! Feedback would be to do more of this to add more elements in the stereo image such as supporting melodies, harmonies, or sound effects. :)

It's a pretty song.  And varied.  And cool sounds.  For some reason it doesn't grip me though.  The song writing seems to be lacking something that I can't put my finger on.  Perhaps a bit random.

This part is pretty, I like the use of reverb and delay

Nice simple intro, meditative.  Great use of space.  I like the development here.  RIP Dave Smith

Lots of (good) things going on in here... A bit more cohesion would help it but still it has this joyful, playful feeling despite its overall melancholic tone.

It has some really beautiful parts but then also a few parts where the sound design isn't working for me personally.

Headphones recommended (was not composed with speakers in mind)

This track was composed using Renoise 3.4.2 with 16 instances of OPNplug, native EQ (10 and 5-band), niveau filter, Spaceship Delay x3, DragonFly Room Reverb, Valhalla Supermassive, TAL-Filer 2 x2, LFX-1310, and TDR Kotelnikov.

I had a Bossa Nova style in mind, but then it just became a mesh of jazz, military, oriental, and rock-like styles. As the title suggests, this entry is dedicated to synth pioneer Dave Smith, who passed away on May 31 at the age of 72.

Korg Supporter - KVR OSC #160 - Rest in Peace, Dave Smith

Always trying to make the best of everything and everywhere I go!
