Synthesis process evidence
Below include information on the synthesis processes incorporated within the composition. You may add any media that is appropriate using the block menu on the left-hand-side.
for my bass sound i used a simple square wave with some added noise and a basic filter envelope. My big inspiration for this track was the Beach Boys record “Love You” which uses similarly simple synthesised bass likely due to technological limitations (listen to “Airplane” from the album).
This is my other synth which plays during the chorus. Again this is a simple synth with a low depth filter envelope and a slow attack. I added a flanger to it as an insert not in the synth to give a subtle shimmer to the sound:
The only other synth used in the piece is a white noise synth which I automated the cutoff to make swooshing sounds, like a riser to build into the chorus and also for some subtle texture.
