i like where it goes from here to the rest of the piece, especially the stacked square wave chords and melodies.  took me pleasantly back to the days of my first synth - the Realistic MG-1.  Polyphony could only be achieved with a square wave.

Great souds and mix. The loud section sounds good but feels a bit undetermined to me. The quiet section feels just wonderful.

I'm impressed with the warmth of the sound -- I found VM hard to get to that place.

My submission for KVR's One Synth Challenge No. 168, this time using Cherry's Voltage Modular as only sound source, including free modules exclusively.

Vestige (OSC 168)

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*
*This track will be released on my label (MEDIEVIL-MUSIC)

Majed Salih - SemitOne (OSC 169)

This is what David Attenborough would sound like when he's discussing microplastics with his dolphin translator at the Assembly of Southern Right Whales, and an orca keeps interrupting.

Entry for the 169th edition of KVR's One Synth Challenge, using the free Kilohearts synth kHs One. Usually only free effects are allowed but we were allowed to use other Kilohearts effects so I've made use of SnapHeap and Multipass.

It's a little longer but the journey required it. Sail into the sea of stars and find what waits.

ONE SYNTH CHALLENGE. All sounds made with KHs One soft synth using Ableton Live Suite. KHs free effects plugins, Ableton effects (eq, delay, compressors), Valhalla Super Massive, and Limiter 6.

Losing Focus

August 2025 marks a milestone for Chris Guillotine.

Two years, one mantra: Just make music.

That's how Chris Guillotine has quickly built up a vault of tracks which are currently on being played by some of the most forward thinking DJs in bass music (Verraco, Sir Hiss, Axle, Oblig, Syz, Fearless Dread, Mia Koden, J:Kenzo)

For the Light Years EP, we pull back the curtain with three atmospheric and experimental tracks to give just a glimpse into the broader scope of Chris Guillotine, showing that "impactful" transcends the dance floor.
