The short story:
This is a Synthwave album made with synthesizer settings from a particular, extremely talented, group of sound designers under the Luftrum banner (https://www.luftrum.com/). I am a hobbyist composer who can only budget for a very small fraction of the packs they release, but won access to all of them through a contest. I will not be using these on Hollywood blockbusters or E3-level video games, but I still wanted to do something to give back to the world; thus, I decided to make some charity release albums using these sounds.

Each track on the album exclusively uses settings from one particular pack, plus some drum sounds and minimal effects, effectively making them "demos" for these packs.

Charity:
I have chosen Equality Now because I believe that discrimination has a generational effect - discrimination against a group now will result in them having bigger and bigger hills to climb in the future. Women have had millennia of discrimination against them, and continue to have severe discrimination to this day. There are far too many women who are hurt in big and small ways from these acts. The world can only be at its best when we are all looking out for each other as human beings, and all groups can bring their own strengths and perspectives to the table.

More on Equality Now:
Equality Now is an international women's rights organization working to ensure women and men are treated equally. A country’s laws set the tone for how it treats its people, and how its people treat each other. When women and girls have fewer rights than men and boys, violence and discrimination are legitimized and ignored. We campaign to end: child marriage, sexual violence and exploitation; female genital mutilation and for women to be treated equally to men in all laws.

About the charity

Since 1992, our team of experts and lawyers have worked with grassroots organizations and governments to achieve legal and systemic change that addresses violence and discrimination against women and girls like child marriage, sexual violence and exploitation; female genital mutilation and more.
