Chopin - Prelude in E minor (Cinematic Studio Strings)

I completed a song where every part was designed on my modular synth. I was working on a very simple idea and generated this really cheesy sounding arpeggio pattern, and at first I wasn't very happy with it.

But then I said "To heck with it" and just worked with it until it evolved into what it is now. As it got better I decided to make an actual piece of music with it and this is what came out.

The only condition I placed on myself was that I would design all the sounds for the piece with my modular synth (mixing and effects done in DAW), that I would do as long of takes as I could, and that anything that was filtered was filtered ONLY with my Pittsburgh Filter - mostly just to get a very intimate working relationship going with it.

Sound sources were Intellijel Dixie II+ and Rubicon, a recently acquired Make Noise DPO, and Solid State Fate Quantum Rainbow 2.

Arn Andersson: "I think you just made my new favorite library!" 

All of the orchestral instruments and the percussion is Nucleus. Arn added one patch from Photosyntheis Mystic and a ping form an Evenant sample pack, but everything else you hear is from Nucleus.
