So yeah I was going to end this song at this point....but I have too much momentum and I genuinely think I can continue this track into a 7 minute beast of a track (will make great demo CD fodder :3)

This is by far my most technically impressive track to date, I've been really pushing myself to learn new things over the last couple months and it's really starting to show

-Morphine: I started using this VST for frequency modulation, that heavily vocoded synth that acts as the anchor for most of the track? That was made with Morphine.
-M1Le, Lounge Lizard, Ultimate Analog: These came with my keyboard as a kind of classic analog synth generator to make sounds you'd hear out of classic synths like Moog and old Yamahas. I used these for the panning bass and the arp near the end, as well as an unused sax instrument
-Reworked my methods for mastering to give a much cleaner sound than usual
-....6 layers of automation on that FM synth and growing hahah....I automated MUCH more than usual in this, almost every instrument has some form of automation
-Gross Beat: I've always used this and made my own time scaling, but this time around I'm really pushing the envelope and making full sets of time-scale envelopes to bounce around....so much power in such a simple plugin!

There's probably a lot I missed but you get the idea
