Iron and stones that fall from the sky.
Vast things…

“White coral islands in a dark blue sea.
Luminous clouds of hyacinth flakes.
Jet-black snow and hailstones flavored like oranges.
Pink snow, flakes the size of saucers.

VCV Rack patch with drums added in Reaper.
Uploaded
This December was more somber and complicated than usual, so just I threw some ambiguous chords into an old VCV Rack patch and didn't bother trying to track down or fix the discordant foghorn tone that crops up a couple of times. I wish I could…

It finally dawned on me that I could use the faders and knobs on my MIDI controller to control channel volumes and plugin settings in Reaper while recording live, so I fired up a bunch of instances of Hainbach's excellent Noises plugin, tweaked…

Built an Omri Cohen patch idea in VCV Rack, recorded a couple of takes, then edited and arranged the results in Reaper.
