"On this planet we discovered an abandoned underwater settlement, probably built by an advanced alien race. We established a research facility called "New Atlantis" where we will continue our further exploration. We don't know exactly why those species left the planet or what made them disappear, but their technology could be valuable for Humanity. And there is more. Some of our crew members frequently report strange activity. People are talking about the feeling of being observed or followed by an entity that suddenly disappears. This could be due to stress, but... We don't know for sure what to expect in this world..."

An appendix to my post. NeverBeenInARiot, after seeing my song image came up with this delightful little sketch:

'cup of tea, Doris?'
'ooh, that would be lovely, Bert'
'Bert?'
'yes my little petal'
'What's that in the water?'
'i don't see anything, love'
'over there, that 100ft tall green fella, looks like he's playing a guitar in the middle of the canal'
'oh so there is, how queer. You don't see that every day, eh?'
'most peculiar. I hope he doesn't catch a cold out there, the water's freezing, and him without his shirt on'
'sugar?'
'just the one, Bert'
'right you are, treacle'
Captain Silverpants

"Doris... can you hear that, love?"
"I don't 'ear nuffink, Bert"
"ah, don't worry petal, it's probably just something I ate"

Hi, unsure about how to post this, but, here's my entry.
The track was created in Studio One V5 Professional using a very short amount of effects. There are 12 synth instances.

0 track FX inserts
2 Aux FX:
- Toneboosters Reverb v3 (Previously JB Omniverb VST32)
- HY_Delay 4 Free
2 Mixbus FX inserts:
- xFer OTT
- Thomas Mundt Loudmax

Most of the tracks have Delay/EQ/Reverb on its own by Charlatan 3. A little automation was created but in some cases it was controlled by velocity using modulators or transformation. I have worked in 3 different ideas that I started the same day OSC was announced. Some patches have already appeared in the downloads section in KVR in a 3 bank file, some others have been modified using Factory patches or some otheers shared weeks ago in the development thread.
Not really happy with the result, I should have optimized a bit the result to end with a better sound in Soundcloud, but it's too late to start modifying everything.
