I feel like this really played to your strengths. Very nice piece.

agree about this synth playing to your compositional strengths, I enjoyed the track, especially the noise ambience. but teetering on the short side

I do like the noise Texture, but it could have been a bit lower in volume and/or maybe a bit more animated over the whole piece

Everything is kinda metallic, makes it a bit tiring for my ears. I would have liked something more  to counteract the metallic character.

There is something genuinely unsettling about the upbeat 80's melody with the harsh noise drone and the overall mixing technique.  And I love it.  It's dark and creepy without using "musical tropes".

Oh god that "wheeaaa" noise in the background gave me the chills.  NICE.

I created this song in the last few days, it was a busy month. The synth itself is a decent one, could be someone's first synth as it's designed to learn. The controls are pretty basic and the FX section lacks some crucial parameters (like low/high filtering for reverb/delay). The synth has its own character though. It's reminiscent of 90's virtual analog synths with that characterful phase restart effect when unison mode is turned on. I could even make some cool rave sounds with it.

Run & Gun (OSC#196)

This month's one synth effort is brought to your long suffering ears by Audible Genius' Primer 2. Featuring the events of three and a bit minutes in the life of a nicely dressed bee by the name of Johnnie. He's judged by his peers to be 'quite good'. Listen in awe as he leaves the hive, flies round a bit, dodging the birds, and settles on a few flowers before flying off home for a well deserved rest.

This month it fell to Tracktion's Waveform Pro 13 for DAW duties along with ten instances of Primer 2. Layering: I've heard of it... Also featuring the following plugins:

- dpMeter5, Blue Cat Audio Gain3 and KClip Zero on clip to zero as always
- AudioModern Panflow
- Tracktion TReverber8
- NI Raum
- no instances of Valhalla Supermassive
- TDR Nova and Kotelnikov for mastering along with another KClip Zero to keep it all in check

MIDI for one of the arps was recorded from Pitch Innovations Eternal Arps. Patches are a mix of Init based and a few from the rather marvellous random buttons.

Thanks as usual to H0lyGh0st for the image created under the threat of using AI instead...

Good Johnnie Bee

Track I made for KVR's One Synth Challenge (OSC) #196. This is the first OSC challenge I have competed in, and the first track I would say I've "finished". It's crazy dense, and I've never made something like this before, but I hope someone likes it! Dedicated to Berlin and it's amazing EDM culture.

My track for KVR One Synth Challenge n. 197 (July 2025), in which existential horror and reckless fun go hand-in-hand.
