Song made using only sounds from Kairatune for the KVR One Synth Contest #145 March 2021

The Return of Captain Trillian (OSC 145)

Awake (Christmas Piano)

A simple piano improv with some added synth backing

The Road Ahead

Into the Wild

Another instrumental based on a piano improv idea

October Heights

A kind of synthwave thing. Originally started life as a one-synth challenge, using TAL U-NO-LX for all sounds, but eventually switched up the drums to use Toontrack EZX No1 hits.

Orbital

Another synthwave type of track, also using TAL U-NO-LX for all synth sounds, and this time using Alesis SR16 samples for drums.

This one started life as an attempt at an entry to the one synth challenge using the Sinmad virtual instrument, but I ran out of time, and also found Sinmad to be a bit unreliable on my computer, so switched to TAL

Syntal8

Ambient instrumental piece based on a piano improvisation and the Arturia Fragments effect

Corda Cognition

Been too busy to finish any songs in a while, so here's a simple idea to celebrate having a bit more free time now

Walking Back

Synth instrumental - an idea I started a couple of years back, but only just got round to finishing. All sounds except drums from Synth1 VST

Refuel

Canopy

Midnight Journey

An instrumental track mostly made with Arturia OB-Xa for the synth parts and then I added a bunch of guitars with my PRS SE Custom 24 through the Pod Go. This one's a bit more rough and ready since its been a while since I completed a track and I wanted to get something finished this month.

Say No More

A moody instrumental made with several instances of NI Kontakt, using some free libraries from Pianobook (Music Box DLX for the main lead sound and Sam's Drawers for percussion and bass), plus Butch Vig drums, Twenty-Five, Grandeur, Cloud Supply, Modular Icons, Hypha, Session Guitarist - Electric Sunburst, & Ignition Keys.

A "through-composed" experiment - I composed 8 bars a day on the piano for 12 days, with no repeating sections, and then recorded some extra instruments to turn it into a song.
