This is my submission to the #kvraudio #OneSynthChallenge #188 featuring the VST Synth Six Traq from fullbucket.
All sounds are coming from the Synth acompanied by a number of moderate tone shaping, mixing and mastering fx. All fx free or built into the DAW. DAW is Bitwig 5.2.x. No Samples. No Postprocessing after the audio export.

Quote from kvr: "Six-Traq is a simulation of the classic Sequential Circuits Six-Trak synthesizer from 1984. This  was the very first multi-timbral synthesizer and featured six monophonic tracks simultaneously available from a single device. Groundbreaking in its time!"

Dance It

As I think of my 14-year-old daughter, I go back to my own childhood. To my dusty, dimly lit room where I had a small synthesiser and an echo machine on some sort of an altar. I go back to my hopes and fears, my expectations, my goals, my beliefs and my love for music. Often too little time to make my own music because I couldn't stop listening to Bach, TD, Klaus Schulze, Jarre, Vangelis, Pink Floyd and Todd Rundgren.

I recognise so much in her. My beautiful 14-year-old daughter with all her hopes and fears and her love for music.

A Quattordici Anni  (OSC #188)

After finding out my boyfriend cheated on me, I take my silver Testarossa Spider for a late afternoon ride on Pacific Coast Hwy to clear my mind. Time to move on.

One Synth Challenge 188 entry by Seap, October 2024
Synth: SixTraq by Full Bucket Music

The year is 1981, and the disco is alive with the vibrant energy of Halloween night. The dance floor is a sea of costumes, from classic vampires and witches to the latest pop culture icons. The DJ, dressed as a futuristic robot, proudly showcases his brand new Roland TB-303, a synthesizer that promises to revolutionize the sound of the night. As he tweaks the knobs, the room fills with hypnotic, pulsating beats that make the crowd move in unison.

In the corner of the disco, an arcade machine stands as silent sentinel, its screen glowing with the sight of a yellow, cheese-like character being chased by ghosts. The game, a recent hit, draws a small crowd of enthusiasts eager to beat the high score. The clinking of quarters and the excited shouts of players blend seamlessly with the music, creating a symphony of sound that defines the era.

A group of friends take turns at the arcade machine, laughing and cheering each other on. Among them, a few are dressed as ghosts, their white sheets fluttering as they move. One person stands out in a bright yellow cheese costume, drawing amused glances and playful comments from the crowd. The DJ, noticing their enthusiasm, decides to mix in some of the game’s iconic sounds into his set, causing a ripple of nostalgia and excitement to spread through the crowd. 

As the night progresses, a girl dressed as a pink ghost finds herself dancing closer to the yellow cheese. Their laughter is infectious, and their eyes meet frequently, each glance lingering a little longer than the last. The chemistry between them is undeniable, as they move closer, their hands brushing and smiles widening. The music swells, and they lose themselves in the rhythm, feeling as if they are the only two people in the room. As the final song plays, they share a knowing smile, realizing that this magical Halloween night has brought them together in a way they never expected. With a promise to meet again, they part ways, each carrying the memory of this unforgettable night in their hearts.
