Hey Zynthianers!
Cutting it a bit close to the deadline, but I managed to finish my track for the competition
It’s called Zynesthesia
(a little pun, with Synesthesia being the phenomenon of associating colors or shapes with music; I’m in love with the concept )
I went for a relaxed downtempo vibe, inspired by meditation & lounge music as well as some chill house tracks I like.
The track was made 100% on my Zynthian, with some sequences entered manually in the pattern sequencer (like the drums) and others recorded into it (Rhodes, Flute…). I only used external tools to record the final result. Should fit in CATEGORY Z
It’s got 6 Tracks, featuring Linux Sampler presets for the 808 drums, StereoRhodes & Flutes, as well as Helm for the deep Bass & Arp and MDA DX10 for the melodic toms.
I used some audio effects like Roomy & MDA Delay to give it some depth and dimension. There’s also an arpeggiator with matching BPM on Chain 4 to fill the mix with a lush atmosphere.

Hope you like it! I’m very much looking forward to receving some feedback on it
