Ominous pulse

Dear friends,

Today I wanted to use one of the pictures I've made in a submarine as thumbnail for a song.
The song and the song title came after this, not sure whether I made good use of this picture but anyways.

F*ck my brains for being a weirdo, and enjoy the track :)
thanks

Okay. The synth sound that plays the melody, needs a tiny bit of reverb effect etc. :)

The single snare hit, that comes in once in a while, might need some reverb too.
And I think that snare, needs a tiny volume reduction. ;)

I suggest using Lmms' calf reverb.
Because most of the time, that effect plugin, always seems to do the work well.
The other Lmms reverb plugins are okay too. :)

Thanks sir,
I replace the link in the first post with the new version containing more reverb.

Indeed it adds something '80s to this lead instrument, and the snare comes even more biting.

"Tempo 156 just because" :lol:

With the metronomic hat, I was expecting for the arrival of other percussive elements.

Hey,
It sounds cool - a bit like some old school Japanese electronic. The melody and whole idea makes sense but def you need work with automation track: change levels of volume from one place to another, some effects setting (experiment with all those knobs you have there). I would also add some automation to the beat too. Also maybe some vocal samples?
