I totally dig your chords and bass choice. The heavily distorted lead kinda goes a bit sideways to me, but still keeps the attitude of the track, which is wonderful!

Really nice track. Funky and great designed sounds. Like the EP with the sort of distorted Guitar. Kudos!

Really nice part, I like how it develops!

Solid funk.  And I admire the brave super fuzzy lead.

Funk isn't my cup of tea, but the music and choice of sounds are well done.

Man, I really want a Barry White vocal on this track

My submission for the July 2022 One Synth Challenge:

https://sites.google.com/site/kvrosc/2022/osc-161-synth1

- 83 instances of the classic freeware VST Synth1 v1.13
- All effects either freeware VSTs or FL Studio native effects
- 113 mixer tracks, lots of bussing
- 353 effects in total, not all used
- No modulation effects, overdrive/bit-crushing applied subtly per the rules
- 7886 notes
- No samples obviously, no presets used
- Upload is undoctored straight from the FL Studio render
~90% average CPU usage on average, with some parts peaking above 100% (meaning these portions take longer to render than to glitch through in realtime lol)

I tried to keep it short, promise. There are many songs for people to evaluate in this competition with undoubtably a lot of skipping-through. But this is song is many different sections strung together by a common chord progression. For such reason these markers are provided for easier evaluation:

0:13 Breakbeat/Rock instrumentation
1:12 Techno/909 section
2:20 Chiptune deviation
3:40 Electro/808 section
5:09 Acoustic string ensemble

Namesake: I played-through Fallout: New Vegas this month, often alternating between exploring The Wasteland and producing this song. In F:NV the player-character is a Courier tasked with bringing many different things concrete and otherwise to very different places with widely varying environments. Similarly this song's widely varying sections delivered to you with only brief transitions. I am The Courier.

Production: Between running out of time and being sick of hearing this track a thousand times, I am finalizing it here and now. I have good monitors but poor acoustics, no headphones and a motorbike instead of a car. As such the bass management/spectral profile is what it is. Crossing my fingers and walking away.

Happy to share the sound design behind any elements in the song, and after the competition is finalized presets can be provided on request.

I love synthesizers and cats.
