Hey oscillator, and thanks, you are on a roll :)

And I notice the date... haven't been able to keep up. Not that that is strange but now since the world is upside down it's even worse...

Great songs and solid production, keeping with the 80s electronic aesthetics!
And as I said before, I hope you spread these songs a bit wider than this forum :)

Not the least the forum here on LinuxMusicians (under 'Musician's corner'), I just posted a song there myself.

I'm a sucker for multi part harmony vocals, do think we can get some in coming productions? I'm thinking big Aaaaaaaa choirs in the background :)

Thank you for your kind comments!

"Aaaah" choir? Why not! Kajsa is coming over this weekend so we will give it a try, I think! :)

Go for it!
I find it very enjoyable to experiment with recording myself over and over on new tracks to build up a choir with only my own voice.
It can sound horrible at times but then once in a while it gets really cool and fun :)
Reverb is your friend here, create an Aux track and add a reverb on this track, and tap signal from all the choir tracks in different amounts to it.

I used to use aux reverb all the time with previous productions (proprietary stuff). Now i just wing it. Different tools lead to different solutions. Or i am just getting lazy.

Whatever. I like "stämmor" a lot, and they are very fun to sing! So. As i get more comfortable with muse, more tracks. More production. More fun!

And i have to add. MusE had a short learning curve. Daws are monolithic. And i am very very very impressed by the possibilities that MusE gives me. A big thank you to all you developers! ♥️
