A strange race of aliens has made a 1,000 year trek to a planet with just the right radiation for them to worship on their pilgrimage. As they bask in the strange radiation light their brains evolve to a higher consciousness which will help them figure out how to cut their pilgrimage travel time to 10 years. They also end up going to a different planet to live as they now have new skills to test in a new environment.

Video was created in 3ds Max and Vray with Mixamo animations. Audio was created in MPC via my Akai midi keyboard with a bit of extra effects via Guitar Rig 7.

That's all for now, thanks for looking :-) #synthwave

A yogi master is trying to transcend their ego. Try as they can the ego fights back with multiple forms of personalities to stay alive. As the yogi gets closer to enlightenments all sorts of distractions flood into place. Various portals are opened and closed only to reveal more distraction before transcendence can finally be achieved. Finally after years and years of practice the yogi reaches enlightenment and becomes one with the architect of the universe.

A group of friends has a member who is in a bad mood. They try to console him but it gets worse and worse. Now everyone is worried and they do their best to get him out of this foul mood. Unfortunately it spirals out of control and absorbs them all and the whole group crumbles into nothing. Perhaps it is because they were trapped in a concrete room with a bright light... Or maybe they realized they were all just retro fashion mannequins with no new outfits to display as all the malls are moving to giant baggy clothes that won't fit them anymore.

Aliens have figured out how to catch clouds. With their newfound skills they start jumping all over them and being reckless. Eventually the clouds fight back and end up as a fog that covers everything causing mayhem in the alien world. Finally the clouds and the aliens reach a truce and stay in their contained areas. As it turns out the clouds are composed of trillions of tiny sentient organisms.

The general population has been trained to argue relentlessly for no reason. Perhaps a frequency has been beamed out by nefarious characters. Now everyone just assembles and argues the same point without listening to each other. As the argument carries on it gets out of hand and spins out of control creating a wormhole that everyone is sucked into. Now the nefarious characters can rule the earth by themselves... Until they get into an argument with each other...

Strange cells are dividing and floating around in the air. They are sort of a hybrid of pollen and viral cells. They are quite toxic and giving everyone a bunch of allergies. The only way to stop them is to chop the weeds that are releasing them before they can spread their pollen around. Unfortunately the cells are evolving and beginning to pollinate through the hosts that they infect. Beware the floating microscopic cells...

A strange particle has been released from an atom smasher. It has changed the composition of all humans into various colored sponges. As people wake up to realize they are now a sponge, they freak out and begin running. The running seems to take their mind off of the terrible existence of being an absorbing material... They will run until it rains.

This poor robot has been programmed to escape any enclosure. Unfortunately the code has glitched in its brain and now it can only walk around in circles forever. Just when it thinks it can climb through the grid opening a 0 becomes a 1 and it continues walking around. Perhaps the strange colored mist inside the enclosure has glitched out the processor... Fortunately the robot can generate its own power source by walking and it will eventually outlast the cage itself and possibly break free once the code glitches again in its favor.

Here is a synthwave instrumental I composed in the hotel room while working on a project in LA. I started the drums on the plane via my akai mini mpk 3 and my laptop. Then it was off to work for a good 15 hours. Unfortuantely I couldn't fall asleep because California is two hours off from Chicago so I stayed up finishing the composition. In the meantime I setup the Insta 360 to take a timelapse video outside the window overlooking the USC campus. The streets on the campus were a bit empty because it was spring break but the air had quite a bit of activity with planes flying nonstop into LAX. Overall it came together well, I'll have to keep this tradition of composing late night music in the hotel room on business trips lol. That's all for now, thanks for looking :-) #mpc #synthwave

A panel has been removed from an underground prison. Now the ray of light is revealing the strange prisoners below. It is impossible to determine how large this space is, or how many inmates are underground. Most of them have been there so long that they are blind and don't even know the ray of light is there. Perhaps one of them will get lucky and will escape to the surface and scare the heck out of the people on the surface.

Here is another original synthwave mix I made in MPC for #midimonday. I found myself super bored in a hotel room in San Antonio so I decided to setup a timelapse using my insta360 camera while I composed midi. The timelapse for these things is pretty slow so I had to let it run a good 2 hours before the battery ran out. Then I swapped out the battery and let it run out again basically doing a full night of timelapse. As it turned out there was a really huge thunderstorm all night, sadly since it was a timelapse only a few flickers were captured instead of some awesome bolts of lightning.

Clones are floating out of the sky appearing out of seemingly nowhere. They are landing everywhere on earth and taking up space menacingly. If anyone tries to move them out of the way they get testy and start forming a mass that bounces any threat out of the way. The military tried conventional munitions on the clones but it had no effect. Still the clones remain untouched. A gaming nerd has emerged from his parent's basement and didn't even know the clones took over. He went over to one and tried asking her out on a date. This instantly caused the clone to start breaking apart. This is the first girl the poor nerd has asked out and her head exploded, now he is fainting. The secret weapon to the clones has finally been found.

An army of clones has been created only to be experimented upon. Various items ranging from a trash can to an angry boss are inflicted upon the clones. Fortunately they are not damageable, though all they can do is fall down. Eventually they will grow tired of the experiments and will rise up against their masters to replicate innumerably on the world. Once they have won they will be able to assemble into neat rows and just stand there forever.
