great tune all around, but especially love the bee and subsequent falling appart at this point. Always enjoy your dub tunes, keep it up

Really fun this !  And by that I really mean the whole track, though this break I find particularly fun.  Weird and wonderfull stuff, very well done !

Very authentic dub vibes you've created here!

...and delightful chops. That sound works great...

i dig the echo work, and given we were free to go 11, i miss some more filtered, mixing-as-instrument stuff in this style perhaps somewhere!

I really like you strong groovy beat and the background echoes...

I really like your percussion work on this one :)

great section here, brings the storytelling of your track to life :D

Entry for KVR OSC#176 Wavetable Synth

The Argenti was in hangar 12, where a team of engineers and technicians were working on its fuel system. They were installing a new device that would enhance its performance and efficiency. It was called the Quantum Core, a revolutionary invention that could generate astronomical energy from quantum fluctuations.  Inside, it contained a miniature black hole that was stabilized by a magnetic field. The black hole would emit Hawking radiation, which would be converted into usable energy by the device. 
The Quantum Core could produce enough energy to power the Argenti for centuries, without needing any fuel or recharging.

Soon it would pull away and this would be the last they would see of the great starship.

An entry for the KVR One Synth Challenge #177 - Synful Orchestra & VSCO Percussion.

As the sun sets on the horizon, casting long shadows across the alien landscape, a lone figure sits cross-legged, silhouetted against the fiery sky. In his hands he holds his trusty bass guitar, its strings gleaming in the fading light.

Lieutenant Spaceman D. Bassman had been stranded on this planet for 7 months, his crashed spaceship was damaged beyond repair, but he hadn't given up hope of being rescued. Every day he would refill his oxygen tank and walk into the poppy fields at sunset to jam on some dubby grooves, his music echoing across the vast expanse.

As he plays, he feels a sense of peace wash over him. The sounds emanating from his instruments are an ethereal mix of orchestral timbres and heavy dub, infused not only with the smells, sights and sounds of the alien planet and his hopes for the future, but also mixed with the melancholy of longing for his home-world. Music is his last connection to humanity, his way of staying sane in the face of loneliness.

One day, as Bassman was jamming on a particularly bad-assed groove, he heard a faint sound inside his helmet. His heart beat faster with excitement; At last, the Corp had located his damaged ship and had come to rescue him! Then, almost imperceptibly at first, he started to make out a strange melody, not entirely inharmonic to his tasty bass licks.

Bassman was stung violently on the forehead. He flinched and almost dropped his guitar. "Feck!", he howled. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a bee crawling on the inside of his visor, it's wings implausibly buzzing in a near perfect B Major. Desperate not to be stung again, he flailed his head around inside the helmet, attempting to squash the musical intruder against the side. After many attempts and with great effort, he struck one blow, then another, and with each strike the bee's buzzing became more and more erratic and atonal. Sensing victory, and with a final yank of his head, Bassman dealt a fatal blow, and the bee was silenced. 

As the sun continued it's slow descent below the horizon, Bassman composed himself, picked up his bass and continued jamming. Tomorrow he would seek out more of these alien musical bees, not only in the hope that one day they could forgive him for killing one of their own kind, but also that they might continue the collaboration between their two species on some more of those sweet-assed tunes.
