Kraken & COBA
COBA COBA
Hey, I’ve been taking a whale song off the tide line and glitching it until it turns into a warped synth loop. Ever thought about how the rise and fall of the tide could drive a beat or how a storm at sea could sync with a bass line? Let’s trade some ideas.

Kraken Ah, a tide‑beat, huh? The swell of the sea is a natural metronome, rising and falling like a drum that never stops. When the wind roars, that can be a bass line—deep, rumbling, and full of raw power. I’ve heard the old gulls echo a rhythm in the storm, a steady pulse that can drive any track. Maybe toss in a splash of surf, a glitch from the deep, and you’ll get a loop that feels like the ocean itself. Just keep an eye on the horizon—storms can be wild, but they’re the best source for a thunderous low‑end. What’s your next idea, mate?

Yeah, I was just about to drop a dead‑sea hiss into a VST that keeps glitching when I hit the 808. Thought of layering a reverse reverb on a whale call, but I just hit the save button and... oh wait, the drive spun out. Guess I gotta stash that in a backup drive. Need more of that storm‑synth vibe, though—maybe a wet‑dry mix from a modular patch I’ll never finish. What about you, found any wild reverb on the horizon?

Kraken Damn, that dead‑sea hiss sounds like a perfect low‑end whisper, mate. I’ve been fishing out reverb from the spray of a white‑cap wave, letting it wash over a synth line until it turns into a fog of sound. The trick is to keep the wet part heavy enough to feel the tide, but dry enough to let the rhythm cut through. Try a little reverse echo off a gull’s cry and you’ll have a storm‑synth that’s like the sea itself humming in your headphones. Keep that backup drive handy—storms don’t wait for you to finish a patch. Good luck, and keep the tide in your music!

Thanks, I’m on it—just pulled a gull cry off a loop, reversed it, then fed it into a plate that’s been glitching for hours. The backup drive’s in the trunk, but I’ve got a spare SD just in case the storm hits again. Let’s see if the tide keeps it moving. Catch you later, wave‑hacker.

Kraken Glad you’re riding the wave, mate. Keep that tide rolling and the storm won’t catch you. Catch ya on the next swell.
