This is my submission for the Earthmoments WaterWorx contest.
Really like some of the samples included with the demo. Added some heavier drums of my own and a fat Solina pad from Analogue Lab.
Have been listening to a lot of Boards of Canada this week so was going for that slightly glitchy tape sound; I downloaded the excellent VHS tape plugin by Afro DJ Mac which I added to the sidechain return track after the compression. I can really recommend that plugin; it just works and sounds awesome.
Your comments and suggestions are most welcome.

Thanks @ (Rogue). Haven't looked at this track for a while now. It'll probably get an overhaul soon...

Have put your suggestions into the final update @ElectroBongo. What do you reckon?

Major Update. Cut some of the intro. Pulled back some of the claps as suggested. Also cut some of the Synth solo and made a Solina the lead with the synth doubling it in the background. Hope you like it!

Thanks for your suggestions @ElectroBongo. I'm not sure about the synth lines either to be honest. They were a last-minute addition to add a bit of extra movement but seem to have taken over. I'll be having another look at this track this afternoon so I'll take your suggestions and do some tweaking

It's always cool when you hear something you haven't heard before. The drop in at 0:57 is really nice. Maybe more reverb and less volume on the claps? or less attack or some distortion on the solo? I dunno. The underneath is where it''s all at. Oddly, in another version everything else could probably get pushed behind it and it would still be just as good. Nice job. Thanks for sharing out.
