The (over-) Whelming from here. The Ending is 10/10!

I went from the bottom up so this is second to last for me.  I am burnt out - my ears are ragged, my brain is fried -- in other words, perfectly positioned for a Silverpants masterpiece!

I think you should have gone for something big.....

I love the tentative nature of this vs the brash confidence of the rest of the track.

Great Song idea (as always)! Sadely I have hard time to enjoy listening to it because it's so harmonically rich it do excite my tinnitus to be pleasing.

Why did I not notice the high pitched noise the last time round. Or is that my ears..?

I feel like a loudness gauntlet has been thrown down.

The Pipers From The North
By Seap for One Synth Challenge 198, August 2025

Single synth of choice: Kult (Dawesome)

Each autumn, when the heather turned purple on the hills, the bagpipers came down from the highlands. At first, the village children heard only a faint drone, like the earth humming underfoot. They would freeze in their games, eyes wide, and scramble up into the oak trees to see better.

The sound grew, weaving and swelling, until it filled the valley like a storm of music—low drones rolling like thunder, sharp notes flashing like lightning. By the time the pipers emerged from the misted slopes, it was no longer a handful of men but an orchestra carried on the wind itself.

The villagers gathered in silence, listening. Year after year, the same mystery unfolded: a reminder that the mountains still breathed, and that the world above the clouds sent down its song to be heard.
