Music submission thread

If you have songs you want to be in Synth Wizards, post links to them here! They should be synth-heavy and have no vocals (except maybe as an effect).

By posting links here you agree that you own the copyright to the songs in question and grant us license to use them in Synth Wizards with no compensation. Please refrain from posting tracks that were part of a commercial release as we do not want to have to go through the process of releasing Content ID claims on YouTube. Thanks for your submission!

Hi Cody. Here’s one done on an Ensoniq SQ-80 and VFX-SD:

Runner

This is an instrumental synth song I put together that might work for your purposes.
Check it out :sunglasses:

Runner - That’s great. Can you give more info on it?

This is one of my earlier YouTube uploads. Had an opportunity to get most of my keyboards set up together and had some fun improv time. Everything is made up, and played live in one take. For my videos, I eventually learned to play FIRST, and talk about the songs AFTER for anyone willing to stick around, so there’s a gear rundown at the end of the video. My first-ever YT video, called “Fretless Jam”, would be a fun submission, but I may send you the audo file only, as in that YT video I rambled on for a solid two minutes before I play the song. Lol. Oh well, lesson learned. :slight_smile:

Thanks guys! We’re using some of these in episode 6, and will always need music for future episodes also.

Some further hints on what works well:

Great swings in dynamics are problematic, as most music will be used under voice-over or other talking. So smoother dynamics fight the voice less.

Tracks with arpeggiators often work well, as they have nice motion and can be consistent dynamically.

While spacey synth music often works great, other styles are nice for specific bits or transitions. So if you’re not sure if something might work, send it on anyway. It might be perfect for something special.

Thanks!

Loving this !!! I so wish I had my ESQ1 still. The SQ80’s & ESQ1s are out of my price range. I see VFX and SD-1s for quite a bit cheaper and am considering that as a possiblity. Do you think it will satiate my cravings for the transwave synthesis?

CS-80_Song
Here’s a short track I put together. I don’t think I’m going to use it for anything so feel free to use it in one of you episodes if you see fit. It’s an instrumental Synth Style song that primarily uses the Arturia CS-80 plugin. All I ask if give credit to eQtweaker for song writing etc… Thanx

If you want to do Transwave stuff, there is nothing better than the VFX/VFX-sd/SD-1 keyboards!
