A slowly evolving ambient track.

A bit of an understatement 
. Sounds great all the way through! How did you make it?

As sound sources I used a Korg Wavestation EX, an IK-multimedia Uno, my vocoder Vocode-O-Matic (modulator = Quasimidi Sirius, carrier = a few pad like samples) and Ableton Live’s ‘Punch and Dirty Lead’ plus some drum samples. This resulted in a melodic track which I then added lots and lots of overlapping reverb to by stretching it.

This music sounds surprisingly different than what you posted here earlier. Are you changing your style?

Depending on the material used it changes a lot, a sound inspires you a musical phrase, an atmosphere … therefore necessarily with VST, the composition path is really not the same.
I like a lot of things (blues, punk, metal, electro, progressive rock, hip hop, traditional music … and I like to play and record it all.
With the modular for 2 years I started to compose by feeling without really thinking about what it was doing in modular “normally” (and I didn’t know it either, a little better now).
and for personal detail this new piece was a thought (and also to evacuate my enormous sadness) for my cat Fripouille who died recently.
A really difficult time for me, and in these cases, the music helps me a lot.
and it was difficult but i try to not make this track so sad, there’s several part like a journey …

I haven’t been around lately… Unfortunately I had some choices to make. Cycling… Making music… or making modules… I did everything except the latter. But I might start soldering again.
In the mean time here is something without any synths I made in the last couple hours. It’s a bit copycat… But meh… I might make a different version if I’ll decide to put more time into it.
Edit: maybe some info… Just played tenor uke, U-bass and my voice. That’s about it.

Good sounds ! on the composition I find that there are lots of good differents parts that follow one another but that none of them ever seem to really get into the heart of the matter thoroughly. I really wanted that rhythmically it attacks more at a time, but is it only my musical opinion.

Thanks! Great feedback! Maybe I’ll revisit it later.

I listened with this in the back of my head.
I want to expand on the reasons…
Agree on the rhythm… To make it a little broader. I think it lacks an anchor. Something that glues everything together. A theme. A melody. A chord progression. … When listening back you kind of do it. But it still feels lacking. I want more variation instead of something completely new.
I can’t really see what you’re sequencing with… But I would say experiment with variations on the same sequence. Another Idea could be to not only do it with notes, but you could sequence the filter… And make variations in the filter.
Concrete example: From 1 minute to 2 minutes you have the same sequence repeating itself for a full minute. Even 1 note change would do a lot here. (on a beatstep you could randomize it a bit for instance, on an 8-step just turn 1 knob)
Then the next theme kicks in… it’s there for 30 seconds? And then a new theme kicks in…
You could leave everything the same, leave out 1 thing, filter it and reintroduce it. Or something like that. That way you’re making variations on the same thing.
Just thinking out loud here. Hope it helps.

Good themes.
A couple of comments since you asked.
First is the individual sounds are a bit blurred. When mixing for film I often have to revisit and remove many of the side chain and local fx on a sound and shift it to the master mix. If you’re using something like chorus or delay for a local effect then let more of the clean through and address it in the main mixer (not always possible in a modular I know) . A cool sound can get lost in the mix even with something as simple as a tad too much release in the envelope.
Second was the big bass sound. I loved it but if you took it down a tad and compressed it there would be a more dramatic punch.
Lastly is do make a second version but I always follow the golden rule of composition. (Which works for dance, writing, animation and music)
Second draft = first draft - 20%. Thinkbof the themes and try dropping out anything that’s not needed. You can bring other bits in and out to add more dynamics … don’t be afraid to use silence.
Noted a comment about what sequencer; there are some syncopation drifts but I don’t know if that’s caused by lag, fx, envelope or your sequencer so I’ll leave it there.
Keep going. I’d love to have the space you do to just play and compose.
