One Synth Challenge #187: ExtraBold by Nakst (Jasinski Wins!)

Hi there ! It's been such a long time since I could enter OSC.
So after a looong break this summer I had the pleasure to find out I could do it again this month.
Youhou!
As an exercice I started to copy Kimbra's GLT groove and sounds and got my little universe of weird sounds growing and finally got this thingy out.
So here it is some ElVicente weirdness, hope you enjoy it. And I look forward listening to your stuff guys.

Every sound made from scratch except for that ride sound I got from a slightly modified Aaron Jasinsky preset, thanks for sharing that mate!

While I created the first notes and sounds a day or two after this edition started, having let's say 60% done. Then I procrastinated the whole month. I'm not totally happy with the result, but... unless going to be released today, it won't ever

In the meantime, I've listened to your production. And men... it's strong. Lot of unbelievable sound designs pulled from this tiny VSTi. Also some super compositions, even in genres I'm not after.

As you can see below, in terms of effects, I made use of built-in effects mostly.

Mind that votes given will be public to everyone alongside the ranking(sometimes newbies vote with strategy because they think they are secret and then....oops!)

Vote with fairness!

Ciaoooo

[seap]

I am a first time voter and I would like to cast some fair votes. Are you guys using some unwritten criterias or does each person have his/hers own system or is it just "My ears like this more than that"?
