Three synth patches (alien, percussive, and smooth) created using Retro Synth in Logic Pro X.

Percussive

For my percussive sound, I chose the table section of Retro Synth. I used a large attack and decay, and a brief filter to create a very short rhythmic beat.

Alien

I used the sync section of Retro Synth for the alien sounds. I chose square waves, a low-pass filter, and oscillated between two frequencies with medium vibrato to create an extraterrestrial feeling. In addition, I had the amplitude envelope fade out slightly longer than one beat, so it overlaps briefly with the next note.

Smooth

For the smooth sound, I increased the release value on the filter envelope to help the sound flow.

Good sounds. Only two comments: in the percussive sound the attack should be short (and it is in your patch: 0.40ms), it seems that is the filter the one that gives the percussive effect, since the decay you use is so long (2100ms). And please avoid clicks at the end (the last sound has a click)
