this is a short song with no sequencing aside from a 909 drumbeat. some chords are the combination of an sh-101 and an arp odyssey. i have no idea what genre it is, but it sort of sounds like an old heavy metal song played with synths with a bit of trance in the middle. maybe synth pop-trance? idn. the lead is the same odyssey patch but with osc sync on, and is an improvisation! the arp two voices on the unsynced odyssey were played and recorded simultaneosly. it features an arp odyssey mk III, a tb303, tr909, juno 60, and an sh-101. it was mixed and mastered on my new monitors. (thanks for the recomendation stab frenzy, they're great!) enjoy, and feel free to dl on soundcloud. if anyone notices any issues with the production, please let me know! thx for checking it out!

This looks like a psychotropic reaction. No wonder it's so popular...

Nice... "monochords".... lol!
Synth-pop-trance yeah I could get into that. But can it be Nu synth-pop-trance?

lol, thanks! it can be nu synth-pop trance as long as it doesn't turn into mall-core synth-pop trance.
