Hello Looperpeople !
It's been a while :-) Finally decided to go back to making music, it feels gooood.
Anyway, here's a new track, made with a Pocket Operator Arcade and a Microbrute. Added some delays, echoes, reverbs, ...
It has a nostalgic feel, slow progression and sweet sounds.
Hope you'll like !

This is super cool and fun to hear! I like the synthesis quite a bit!

I remember the times of having only an old soundblaster to work with for recording. It worked, but was also really frustrating at times. This song would be even more fabulous with the s/n ratio and dynamics that would come from a dedicated interface. That said, you've done excellent work with what you have at your disposal!

These instruments seem to compliment each other well. Fun tones, which do sound quite vintage. It almost reminds me of Joy Division or something, without the vocals.

Pretty awesome! Fave!

Hey mate thanks for the feedback, greatly appreciated !

I have a decent interface now but still need to get the right setup. Was a bit tired of turning virtual knobs, clicking and pointing so I decided to go hardware. Lots of fun and more intuitive.

Appreciate your time, cheers !

I also think it's awfully quiet. Hopefully the volume can be boosted a bit, but overall, it's very relaxing!

nice mellow ambient track just to forget everything, to free mind and relax! )
it seems the track is too quiet for me, or maybe you wanted that way, anyway, great job!
Respect!

Yes it's very quiet, I'll try to boost the volume a bit but I don't have the correct setup a the moment. For now I'm stuck with my noisy, inboard laptop soundcard to record !
Cheers !
