Neon Rainscape

"Begin with sparse, echoing analog synth pads reminiscent of Tangerine Dreams, Layer in mechanical rhythm elements - think slow, deliberate 100-110 BPM with metallic percussive sounds, Introduce a pulsing bass sequence that slowly grows in intensity, with subtle side-chaining to create that breathing effect, PEAK: Around 1:30, bring in heavily side-chained growling synths that cut through the mix like Vanjelis brass sounds from Blade Runner, Increase rhythmic complexity with glitching percussion, The bass should now be more aggressive with heavy modulation, Create tension with rising filter sweeps and reverb-drenched atmospheric sounds that evoke rain-soaked neon cityscapes, HOME: At 2:30, gradually strip back the percussion while maintaining the core bass sequence, Allow the growling synths to soften into more melodic territory, Echo effects increase, creating a sense of vast space, End with the original pad sounds fading into synthetic rain"
