All of these tracks were created with Hexen, the wonderful modular soft synth Android app by Silicon Droid. Most were then finished in Audacity.

Five Odd Numbers - my latest Bandcamp release
I forgot to plug my fifth Bandcamp collection, thankfully all of instrumentals, which I shared with a grateful world last month. Most were made with LMMS, except for Breadboard, which I did with an advent calendar DIY synth kit. Space Chase is an oldie, which I don't think I've posted here before.

Hexen Two Industry - music by Used Soyuz
My second piece made on my phone with Hexen, the Android modular synth app, and the first time I have created patches in it from scratch. I recorded two tracks, and edited them together in Audacity. I was going to add a drone on top, but I really like it as it is. Video created in Clipchamp using 'Steel: A Symphony Of Industry' from the Prelinger Archives / Internet Archive.

Hexen Demo Mashed - music by Used Soyuz
Hexen is an Android modular synth app I have started playing with on my phone. For this first attempt I used its Tape module to record my twiddling with one of its demo presets, then messed that around in Audacity. This is also my first video edited with Clipchamp.

Breadboard - music by Used Soyuz
Santa got me a DIY breadboard synth kit - the Electronic Sound Advent Calendar from Eight Innovations: https://eight-innovation.com/dir/advent-calendars/
This kept me occupied over the holiday, and I outputted three short sequences I created on it. I then edited, echoed, reverbed and stretched these on Audacity to make this dirge. Enjoy.

Perky - music by Used Soyuz
I wanted to make an upbeat instrumental, although it inevitably turned a bit dark and fuzzy halfway through. Composed in LMMS using Linn drum samples, and too many TAL Noisemaker presets, including: SIDChord FN, Analog Down Glider, 2050 Punk, and Lo Fi Party. Mastered in Audacity.

Helicopter Spies - music by Used Soyuz
Inspired by my favourite song by the magnificent Swell Maps, which I really should have left alone. Composed with LMMS using tweaked presets from two archives for the wonderful Synth-1 VST by Ichiro Toda (Ami Evan: Thriller ATMOS / Broken Leader / Phatt Leader / Arp 1, and Argon2005: Analog Gate / Screamy Lead). Public domain video from the Prelinger Archives.
