The Gas Giants 1

[Wookiee]

The Gas Giants 1 

The Gas Giant looms before you, as you approach you find yourself surrounded by thousands of ice crystals.

Two Chery Audio Synths and two Arturia Synths.

Well the Dark One's are said to be waiting in Jupiter for the Sleeper to wake. 

Thanks for listening and commenting.

I don't anything about the Sleeper, or Gas Giants, but...

a big ?'s from out here on the left coast!

Cool song, it almost sounds like you have a Theremin in there at times?

Well you really do not want the Sleeper to wake, he is a nasty huge monstrous thing with a gapping maw and tentacles for a face. He goes by the name Cthulhu and intends to take over planet earth when he does wake up.  To start he intends to snack on all the humans.  His mates the Dark Ones are hiding on Jupiter.

Thanks for the thumbs up ? glad you enjoyed it and also for the comment over on Bandlab.

Thanks Joad that would be the Jupiter 8. Appreciate your time and ears.

Orchestration and arrangement gives the exciting atmosphere.. strong soundscape
Well done synthesizer music.

I could feel the gravity pulling me toward the rotund mass.  I liked how you presented the ice crystals...very original.  Do you ever use a theramin, or is that too corny?

wookie,
I like your sparse compositions with the distinctive instruments you can easily follow (unlike my cluttered comps)
Jupiter, then Saturn then Neptune then Uranus?

I do not have a Theremin though I do have something called an Air FX which Ms W purchased for me, it is actually a bit of a bu&&er to use and some what unpredictable.

Hope he gravity well of the planet did not disturb you to much, thanks for commenting and listening.

Possibly this did feature the Jupiter Synth so this was possibly the first of four, I seem to be doing small collections, who knows.

Thanks Bjorn you are most kind and generous, you do a mean job yourself, your last with the wind Duduk is very evocative and atmospheric.

Love it Wookiee!  I love that little thingy (voice?) in the beginning panned center.  The fact that it was pulled back, in sound, made it intriguing to me.  It certainly did build from there.  After you defined  the Sleeper and Dark Ones, the darkness and edge of this song seemed perfect.  My wife calls be a Gas Giant but that is for different reasons!?

[Wookiee]

@freddy j thank you, it's an age related thing gas, or is it the other GAS that musicians suffer from ???. The voice like sound is part of the bass sound which results as you shift pitch.

Hi Wookie - would you believe it, I have an Air FX as well - i think i would class it a little worse than a bu&&er to use, but i might get banned if i said exactly what I thought of it!!!

Love this composition, really was great to listen to

Great stuff, 

Nigel

Enough said on that then ??

Thank you Nigel glad you enjoyed.

Nice job Wookiee - I like that high register that comes in about a minute in to the song.  I'd boost that up and maybe some sort of reverb, but it sounds good anyway.
