This Patch Sounds like a Rainy Night in Cyberpunk City

Music-Video | Apr 02, 2026

I took the old idea from the previous video and pushed it a bit further. The raindrops and wind sounds create a really nice vibe, and they’re made entirely from noise and filter movements, they actually make up most of the patch. The rest I filled out with some drones and a random noise generator.

One part of the patch generates raindrops, but when the resonance goes up, it almost starts sounding like a melody since I’m quantizing the frequencies to the current global scale. Anyway, it’s a total CPU killer, but it ends up being super chill to listen to... kind of feels like a rainy night in some futuristic city.

What starts as an old sketch drifts somewhere stranger and more alive, with raindrops and wind doing most of the storytelling. Built entirely from noise and filter movement, the patch feels less like a song and more like weather dreaming through synths. Drones and a random noise generator fill in the horizon, giving the whole thing that foggy ambient music glow. It’s a lovely little piece of sound design that feels beamed in from a rainy satellite.

Rainy city at night! This time I’m using different oscillators again for pads & lead sounds. On top of that there’s a lot of generated synth rain with droplets and noise.

I just built a cool drone in the Grid again, with a ton of pads and a lead sound that randomly plays every now and then. There are also some random FX sounds, plus a little wind and rain machine.

For the patch, I recorded my own vocals, of course, all nicely processed with reverb and packed them into the sampler. I also added some water sounds that I generate with filters. There are water droplets too, so it all kind of reminds me of a cave system on some alien planet. I kept the atmosphere pretty static, meaning there aren't many melodies or anything like that.

I tried to use as few sound sources as possible for the pad and relied mainly on all-pass filters to stretch the sound and make it behave like a pad, even though it’s just a sine bleep every few seconds.

Made another patch over the weekend, just a few modules for kick, bass, sub, hats, arp, and a random melody with a lead sound. Everything’s soaked in reverb and delay, as always! And yep, you can download the patch for free if you want!

Many all-pass delays create maximum reverb on all sounds. This should create a nice atmosphere with some random sounds. The Markov Generator creates notes in specific sequences, and this is used for a sine bleep.
