A Patch I did at the time

My good friend https://soundcloud.com/delirium-funk gave me his Bastl Kastle to play with ... and this rainy, ricey ritual little number slowly emerged from that crazy little box! Enjoy! 😁😜

Sometimes the simplest sounds work best, and I quickly had various bass lines/ drum patterns ideas worked up when messing with a new synth I purchased recently.  I actually remembered  running into the sound used for the lead/ "melody" a few weeks ago and thinking I must use that for something! That something became wrinkles, possibly my song for Halloween 2025.....

Wrinkles of Fear and Foreboding, By Patterns of Life

Testing out some new mixing elements and processes. Figured I’d upload the results. Gonna turn it into an actual song eventually

Falling (brief demo)

low beats many grooves

Tangible Waves AE Modular - 2x Rains and some ridiculously complicated hocketing patching, plus a little Kaestle arp (Wonkystuff style) and Vermona drums.

Mid tempo instrumental, started just because I liked the chord stabs!  I did intend to do more with the Marimba sound but  that will be if I ever do  a longer version....

My OG Tracker had the jog wheel problem, and I finally took the time to repair it. Now I can use it again, and here is a thing I came up with!

Drunken Cicada - Defiant Harm

Short instrumental,  testing out my new studio arrangement.

In a Tropical Storm, By Patterns of Life

Uptempo instrumental which started off with a bassline idea.  It mulled around for a while, then was inspired yesterday, jamming over the top with the lead sound. This evolved into the arrangement we have here and I added to pad and a few FX/ Ear candy etc. Hope you enjoy as much as I did making it.
