^^^There's your break dance stuff

Way to kill my favourite break-dance song!

Actually that was funny. Thanks for posting that.

Yes, it is what it is: absolutely great! It's playing here in a loop for half an hour now. One of the best I've heard here at KVR since a long time. Of course it's also a matter of personal taste and it tastes like more! I'm looking forward to your upcomming album.

What other instruments did you use? Mostly soft synths or did a fair amount of hardware sneak into this wonderful track? Is Synth Squad incorporated?

Thank you.

Hardware-wise only OBXa makes a showing (although it's sampled. It's the brassy chords first heard right at the start). Otherwise it's Synth Squad and Alchemy. The formant leads are made in Amber and the vocoded sound is Amber plus Warmverb (in Vocoder mode). Bass=Strobe, and Cypher on other duties. Turnado provides the glitch factor.

Some really cool stuff in this. After listening, I had to fire up Diva and try to imitate some of the sounds.

Thanks everyone. I'm very happy you have enjoyed it.

Listening to it for the umpteenth time I feel it's too sloooow.

Thanks for clarifying. Great use of the vocoding effect!

hehe, That's a familiar phenomenon. Our minds don't process at the same speed all the time. e.g. When I'm tired and slow, music seems faster than when I'm wide awake and very active. Perhaps you are particularly quick of mind at the moment? When you change the tempo now (please don't, it's good as it is) you'll feel it's running too fast tonight or tomorrow.

Very enjoyable. Nice solo(s).
Skips along in a happy way that brings a smile to my face.

Agree with Timfonie, ^ don't change the speed, you'll lose the feel of it.
