The Lab - An 80s inspired Synth Piece


Layne

Recommended Posts

Hey all! Today I come with something a bit different. A synth piece! I venture into this genre every now and then because I really do find it fun. All of this was put together in FL Studio using sounds from Analog Lab V. I chose sounds in there that were inspired by 80s synths. My goal was to make something mysterious...and the image that came to my mind was a secret laboratory. It's not a long or really complex piece, but thought it could be fun to bring it here and get some feedback! I've been sitting on this one for a bit, I made it last month. Just now getting around to posting. Hope you enjoy it and looking forward to the conversation and feedback.

Hi @Layne!

This is kinda cool - I like the mixture between major and minor.  How much do you know about music theory?  It seems sometimes like your chord voicings are kinda stark.  Also - even though the ideas in this piece are pretty cool you mostly just repeat the same idea for the whole time (except for that short respite at around 0:50).  But you do add unique melodic layers on top of the pattern.  It does sound like a secret laboratory though - I can imagine all the beakers, clamps, burners, and microscopes.  So great job there!  Thanks for sharing.
