cool I like this multi-part approach I can feel the story telling aspect in this composition

Oh man... just use the stereo noise! Would have elevated this part a lot -- especially start with mono, automate to stereo or something

It's almost like a kong, but it it's got no low end. I'm confused about this part

kept this track interesting for 7.5 minutes -- that's a great feat!

My entry for KVR One Synth Challenge #166.  This month it's Wave Manuel, a quirky but very flexible synth. Really surprised at the tones that came out of it.
Recorded in Reaper with 16 instances of Wave Manuell, and some free and native FX. All sounds produced with Wave Manuel.

For this One Synth Challenge I used 26 instances of a free synth named "One" by the Swedish company Kilohearts who are famous for their Phase Plant synthesizer. I used many of their free FX plugins as well. Additional free plugins are LaLa by Analog Obession, Wider by Polyverse and RF-DSP by Ronan Fed which is a wonderful and free multi-FX module that I found online just a couple of days ago.
DAW has been Cubase 12 Pro

The synth this month is Apricot by Nakst, a very capable 2 osc VA.  Great sound, and super light on the CPU, also loads like a demon.

Lost Technologies (OSC 173)

An entry for the KVR One Synth Challenge #177 - Synful Orchestra & VSCO Percussion.

As the sun sets on the horizon, casting long shadows across the alien landscape, a lone figure sits cross-legged, silhouetted against the fiery sky. In his hands he holds his trusty bass guitar, its strings gleaming in the fading light.

Lieutenant Spaceman D. Bassman had been stranded on this planet for 7 months, his crashed spaceship was damaged beyond repair, but he hadn't given up hope of being rescued. Every day he would refill his oxygen tank and walk into the poppy fields at sunset to jam on some dubby grooves, his music echoing across the vast expanse.

As he plays, he feels a sense of peace wash over him. The sounds emanating from his instruments are an ethereal mix of orchestral timbres and heavy dub, infused not only with the smells, sights and sounds of the alien planet and his hopes for the future, but also mixed with the melancholy of longing for his home-world. Music is his last connection to humanity, his way of staying sane in the face of loneliness.

One day, as Bassman was jamming on a particularly bad-assed groove, he heard a faint sound inside his helmet. His heart beat faster with excitement; At last, the Corp had located his damaged ship and had come to rescue him! Then, almost imperceptibly at first, he started to make out a strange melody, not entirely inharmonic to his tasty bass licks.

Bassman was stung violently on the forehead. He flinched and almost dropped his guitar. "Feck!", he howled. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a bee crawling on the inside of his visor, it's wings implausibly buzzing in a near perfect B Major. Desperate not to be stung again, he flailed his head around inside the helmet, attempting to squash the musical intruder against the side. After many attempts and with great effort, he struck one blow, then another, and with each strike the bee's buzzing became more and more erratic and atonal. Sensing victory, and with a final yank of his head, Bassman dealt a fatal blow, and the bee was silenced. 

As the sun continued it's slow descent below the horizon, Bassman composed himself, picked up his bass and continued jamming. Tomorrow he would seek out more of these alien musical bees, not only in the hope that one day they could forgive him for killing one of their own kind, but also that they might continue the collaboration between their two species on some more of those sweet-assed tunes.

Fin.
