Very great start!

Oops! I thought I made it public before I went to bed, but obviously I did something wrong. It is fixed now.

The music has an otherworldly feel like alien communication or distorted radio signals, with odd frequencies and unnatural rhythm. Also I hear static interference and distorted transmission.

Wow, sounds beautiful. I didn’t know about this. Thank you!

In this eight-track patch I use a combination of Venom XM-OP, CV Funk Alloy, and Pink Trombone to create a fun medley of contrasting voice textures. Using the inspiration of wind chimes, I limit the notes to a pentatonic scale.

Percussion comes from Sapphire Elastika (with high friction setting) and Sapphire Nucleus. I use Venom Bernouli gates to shake up the rhythm a little bit.

Here is the patch:
