Cherry Audio fan Joe Sweeny (as Doc Joe) has released Hyperstatic, a collection of tracks inspired in part by Greg Egan's posthuman sci-fi novel, Diaspora.
"The album is almost exclusively made with Cherry Audio synths, with the following being very present:
Dreamsynth - my absolute favourite workhorse)
PS-20 - my go-to bad-boy synth and source of most grit and squelch on the album
Eight Voice - the lush and golden glory good-boy
Miniverse - the classy ol' matron
Drums on track 2 were XO. None of the tracks used third-party FX. The album is a set of live jamming sessions, sequenced and played via a Novation Launchpad Pro Mk3 and NDLR. I use Bitwig for MIDI routing with a FaderFox PC12 for live MIDI control (you can never have too many knobs to play with!). The recording is via a Zoom LP8.
In short, the album is as raw, pure CA as you can get."

"Most of the other tracks under Doc Joe are exclusively or almost exclusively Cherry Audio synths. Logan's Run (featuring Elka-X and Dreamsynth) and Moon Knife (PS-20 heavy) are my two favourites."
