The Awakening is a playful musical journey through the battle within—an exploration of self-doubt, fear, and the struggle to break free. It captures the voice inside that holds us back, the moments of uncertainty, and the eventual realization that the only true enemy is ourselves.

Narrative:
---------------------------------------------------
Krit was a small boy, often feeling like he didn’t quite fit in.
Despite his achievements, there was always a quiet voice telling him, 
"You don’t belong". 
He told himself it was normal, part of growing up. But it never went away. 
Then one night, he had a dream.

🌅 Act 1: The Dream
He ran through wide, golden fields, feeling light and free. For the first time in a long time, he didn’t have to think, everything just felt right.

🌑 Act 2: The Nightmare
Suddenly, the world grew still. The fields shrank, and a shadow appeared in front of him.
"You don’t belong."
The air thickened. He couldn’t move, and the doubt that always lingered felt overwhelming.
"You are nothing."

⚔️ Act 3: The Ascent
A shift. Krit started to move. Slowly at first, then faster. The shadow loomed, but he kept going. The doubt didn’t disappear, but it no longer held him back.

🌟 Act 4: The Awakening
He pushed forward, the weight lifting with each step. The shadow faded, and with it, the doubt.
Krit didn’t stop. He had awakened, and nothing would hold him back again.

I would like to thank Taron and The Sound Of Merlin for their valuable feedback and guidance in refining certain aspects of this song, truly grateful!

The Awakening (OSC 193 Thorn)

Made for the One Synth Challenge #193 with 37 instances of DS Audio Thorn in FL Studio 2024. Every sound is created from scratch in Thorn, no samples allowed and external effects shouldn't affect the sound too much. That's the One Synth Challenge. This time let's go to a space exploration or something like that i don't know, i'm absolutely aweful at writing texts like that. Anyway, i hope you enjoy this track :D

No Brainer

Track I made for KVR's One Synth Challenge (OSC) #196. This is the first OSC challenge I have competed in, and the first track I would say I've "finished". It's crazy dense, and I've never made something like this before, but I hope someone likes it! Dedicated to Berlin and it's amazing EDM culture.
