Another song recorded in a single take, with the Teenage Engineering OP-Z[archived] for sounds and the Korg mini kaoss pad 2S[archived] for effects (I'm using the "Freeze Looper"). I've been experimenting with the tape track on the OP-Z, and in this song I send the main melody to it on the second part, to add some variability and make it much more interesting. It's a fun effect, and I love how the song turned out to be very whimsical!
Again I did some light mastering on Ardour[archived], since the peaks were very high.
Rain samples are from daveincamas[archived].

Whimsical for sure - it's a happy melody, and the quivering effect makes it sound like it's laughing. The coolness of the rain samples is very welcome on this hot day!

The rain throughout is great,and complements the upbeat music perfectly.

Lots of nice sounds, a bit of blippy 8 bit summer chill out vibe, is the tape track a kind of tape delay thingies?
