A song about my delayed sleep phases and the phrase I'd often find myself thinking while I watched the moon and stars in the night sky fade into dawn. This song was mostly written in those hours.

A very personal song that I spent many hours tinkering away at. A big thank you to th4 BotBuh fam for inspiration to push my creativity.

I forgot to use samples again so this is just moar YM2612+SN76489 sounds. Written in the latest free Deflemask v0.12.1.

Very expressive, while maintaining the big rumbly bass, panning, and general crunchy fM mischief I've come to expect out of a D34D track. Good shit!

FM mischief is such a good way to put it. there's no shortage of trickery in this song. the sound design and the atmosphere complement one another so well - ultimately a really sentimental tune, but told through a subdued, lightly subversive vibe using textures that are idiosyncratic... and colorful! which is great and fresh! i love the push and pull of the sounds that increase and decrease retriggering speed, those (along with some of the vibratos) help keep this feeling just a bit slippery

I listened to the song before I read your description so I was not prepared for how this badboy started. Then by the end I was like, "0H Y34, W3 R33L D34D N0W." 💀🎹

the whole tune is paced perfectly, and both the chill/busy sections have so much detail and care, lovely work!

I hear the stars and other celestial bodies punctuating the night. I've gotta say, I have really enjoyed hearing your style evolve over the years! I love the harmonic richness of your progressions, and the character of your DnB. I love how you're continually breathing life into the style. You are really doing the chip the justice it deserves. Glad to hear all 16

Very masterful sound design with lots of sweet sentimental sparkles. Perfect as a Winter XX track. Also, I was very impressed with your snare drum FM.

This sounds like a glitched version of a Golden Sun cavern theme. I love these sounds, you always know how to make instruments work together
