Worked thirteen hours on this today and didnt get tired once (unbeliveably). Really finding it a joy.
8 mins long, not finished article but definately formed a certain complete (ish) feel of sorts. Ending arrangement will be worked on and quite a few other intricacies.
Very much updated from links ive now deleted. (some of which were the reference of comments on here, some of those comments written by me ive also deleted to meke sense)

No idea what to call it, but i like the idea of Change. So. ‘The Change’ it is for now. Plus its trance so i just label the start of the current name to identify it. Levels will be sorted. (that might be a challenge lol)

Offcourse it’s not near any kind of structure or arrangement but just want to show this melody
It’s lovely, maybe a tad to busy so in the arrangement be careful where and when you do those nice sparkly alterations to it,

conpliment on the synth groove in the beginning as well, lovely texture. What did you use for this?

If you mean the very first sound that comes in it’s Waldorf PPG vst emulator with the Arp switched on and quite possibly triggered by the Arp on my basstation 2 aswell ( not entirely sure but I have played with 2 arps before. Happened by accident when making a sound/melody as these days when i switch on my basstation 2 (hardware analog synth I also use as a keyboard controller) the default preset has the arp on, and this gets applied as midi information through whichever vst I’ve selected. Offcourse sheds loads of fx are used too. My atmospheric go to source of fx is Valhalla Supermassive ( it’s a free plugin I use in probably 70% of sounds. Other plugins are used, Air Music Vintage filter and a few others i believe. Lots of fx and filter automation of the vst filters and Airs Vintage filter plugin.

I think il need to drop the reverb level of some kind in areas as there’s too much noisy bits ( I think you reference that) i basically need to eliminate the screatchyness. It does have eq squashing at the hi and low frequencies from melda dynamic eq but I need to do more eliminating im sure. At some point I was using a plug called DS Audio Tantra 2 which is a very nice experimental rythm based multi fx but not as you know it. I may have taken it out though, but do use it on another sound later.

Forgot to mention a crucial plugin I often use. Camel crusher. Its awesome. Plus I checked and Tantra is being used. Creates among others the slight bubble sound effect.

I like it but it seems a bit over compressed. Reminds of some stuff like Space - Fly Magic with a bit of the The Digital Blonde mixed inside.

Lots of really cool stuff in here bobby. Definitely here some DB stuff at points. Really like the bassline. As usually, I just want to hear a track with normal and predictable progression and build.

Been working on this today. Getting it right, each step of the way as it forms throughout the production process… rather than doing different sections and skipping back and forth from one element to the other before that bit is set right In conjunction to the rest (to put it another way -I was never reaching equilibrium) I’m being patient now. Feeling great about it. Will post when much further developed.
