It's still fresh, I did it yesterday :lol:
Love the percussion work, man. Sounds very cool. Simple but rich.
How did you get those bell-like sounds? They sound great too.

Thanks :)

I am not sure to identify what you called "bell-like sounds".

Maybe the high pitched dotted sound? I used Monstro with, as main features the use of the arpeggio function (chord=octave, range=4 octaves, direction=random, time=16th of note, mode=free, duration = 105%) + use of the LFO applied to the synth volume (waveform=square, ATT=0.051, SPD=32th of note, AMT=0.33).

Maybe the soft sound that gives a melodic line? I used the Mallets (Mallet type=beats) with a reverb (Calf Reverb LADSPA).

How does the track sound on your speakers? I feel that it is heavily loaded in the low frequencies (vs high). Moreover, all projects started since April 14 have a similar profile.
Sounds good on a sennheiser gaming headset.

The low end is a bit rich, not sure if you should change it.
Aye. I just listened to it.
This tune is a nice entry, for the BoL5 contest.
It even has that surreal, yet slightly dark ambient sound and style to it too.

Good luck in the BoL5 competition D.Ipsum. :D

Yeah I meant the high-pitched dotted sound. Very cool!

I don't have professional speakers but it sounds good on my end. As Gps said, the low end is rich but I don't think it's overbearing. Good luck on the competition! ;)

Thanks! I would like to improve it, to balance the spectrum of the mix via a more dynamic mix.

The track was not selected. Maybe another time.
