Sonix4

Yes, the third track within a week ... happens when you have a week off ;)

this is a reminder of my old tracks with the amiga...a bit distorted, but no one will die from it

the two before that I did with Renoise and used mainly Vitalium and Tunefish4. This ambient track here I made with SunVox...

Sonix 4 is very Blue Monday-ish, but original nonetheless! Love it. :D

Shadow Of The Beast has a very nice electropop feel to it. You are right that the distortion doesn't hurt anybody, it can even make sense in some cases :wink: The punching rhythm section is really nice, truly a "wakeup"!

Forgotten realms...skilled use of dissonance, white noise and low-freq buzz in a musical context. Relaxing, late 70s ambient kind of mood with some modern touches.

All three tracks are well produced and mixed, IMHO. Very good attention to the spectrum, bravo!

I agree with @Basslint that Sonix4 has some Blue Monday vibes but that is not a bad things (and it is not only the arpeggio but also the dry echo guitar).

Sounds very very good, and I like the mood a lot. Very successful mix of different kinds of sounds.

Would probably work well with some kind of singing.

Hi @Adrezonar , three tracks within one week. Even on my best days I can't rival that. Sonix4 I liked, the sound choices somehow spoke to me. That hint of 90s big VA bass, the electric guitar with the dub-like delay. The sounds were well matched by the cool harmonies.
Even more though I fell in love with forgotten realms. I once heard mention of the genre of "deep electro", which always suggested to me great synthetic sounds arranged with delicate hands and intricate layers. This piece has such a nice flow, painted with a perfectly matched palette.
