After All The Cake And Watermelon (KVR OSC 145) by functionform published on 2021-03-31T05:30:23Z One Synth Challenge with Kairatune, 49 instances. A tribute to the epic Social Network soundtrack. Always wanted to learn Kairatune, never had the opportunity. It seemed like it could span textures really easily which is always good in a monosynth. Kicks were the hardest probably, a little CamelCrusher helped with that. Somewhere out of fiddling with patches came the Social Network angle, and I ran with it. That soundtrack is one of those that hit for me instantly and stuck with me since. I remember seeing Trent describe the Swarmatron, a custom synth manufactured for the soundtrack. Kairatune did a pretty good job emulating it I believe. Lots of bass layers in this track too, something I noticed TR+AR did in the soundtrack. As usual, more nitty gritty in the kvr thread.

Your pads seem to hint at words. I love BOC which this coming section reminds me of. 2021-04-11T21:22:29Z Comment by ELEX Ah...back to the darkscape...nice.

But I have to admit I prefer the earlier NIN albums until around 2000... 2021-04-03T20:41:49Z Comment by skwrl What a trip :D 2021-04-03T19:23:54Z Comment by z.prime ... and this bazz!! 2021-04-03T04:44:22Z Comment by z.prime really like this lead line! also the headphones in your picture! đI was just telling people on slack the best < $200 cans in terms of flat frequency response I've found are the sony mdr-7506! 2021-04-03T04:44:03Z
