I think this develops nicely, with nice sounds and production.  I also grew up with JMJ as a major electronic influence (in the years between Switched On Bach and Vangelis) but I'm not going to hold any general or personal style against somebody, lest 99% of all music throughout time be condemned!  I think this track stands tall on its own merits.

Starts a little slow but really gets going nice.

Excellent sound design and mixing. There's a lot going on in here, but everything still gels together.

Great buildup and has some retro synthesizer charme.

Eventhough it wasn't intended you used all the things I love about Jarres tracks, heavy synthetic soundeffects like the bird/computer zaps at the beginning and the bubbling sine modulation, the equinoxe-like sequenced bass - originally made on the digisequencer, the falling motive on the flute around 5:00, the Zoolook like Fairlightish Voices and last but not least the overall atmosphere with the typical Vangelis like CS80 Brasses added. This track is definitively one of my favourites this month. Well done :)

I really like this kind of mid tempo stuff.  Beautiful.  Majestic and still synthy!

Ham is a space-face spaced out homage to the first great ape in Space, Ham, named after the Holloman Aeromedical Laboratory, who safely returned from Space in January 1961.

"he had a smile on his face -- 
but," said the experts,
"that's a sign of great distress,
that's a sign of great distress"

Dedicated to Laurence Crane on his Birthday.

"Life in a futuristic mega-city turned out to be not so pleasant. Living in an over populated human hive, spending all of your spare time getting to your stupid day job, having to deal with bureaucracy and corrupt administration, being constantly stressed out. Not to mention a hot conflict zone nearby. Seeing military ships flying above your head became normal at some point. All of this, just like it was hundreds years ago. Nothing has changed. At least you can enjoy unearthly colors outside the window while having a mug of synthetic beer in the nearest barroom".

Submission for One Synth Challenge 171 featuring "Apricot" from Nakst.

Another synthwave track with my usual style. The synth itself is nice and seamlessly integrates with my FL Studio. The additions of internal samples and effects were handy for creating sounds. However there are some aspects that could be improved. The biggest disappointment to me was audio rate LFO modulation, especially with sample & hold mode. I cannot explain it correctly but it simply doesn't sound right. Other than that, this instrument would be useful for learning the basics of synthesis.

36 instances of Apricot used to create a track.
