I dreamt I made my Weekly Beat

By cTrix on March 3, 2024 12:52 pm

((  ARE YOU READY FOR THIS?!!  (answer is no, no one is ready for this)  ))

Last week - I didn’t make a weekly beat
Except I did - In my sleep
Last Week - Before I woke up
I’d made whole banger and it didn’t even suck, 

And in my dream the song had been sowed,
And I’d been to this website, and I’d hit UPLOAD!

Last Week - I dreamt I made my weekly beat!

Yesterday, Sunday roll’d round,
I was staring at the numbers of the timer going down
I closed my eyes sittin’ under the moon,,
And my brain wondered off to bangin’ tune,

In my dream, the screen gets showed,
That I’ve already been here and hit UPLOAD!

Last Week - I dreamt I made my Weekly Beat,

[bangin' solo]

Coz in my dreams I’m travelling the road,
Where I’m smashing out bangers and hitting UPLOAD!

Last Week - I dreamt I made my weekly beat [x2]

=====================================================================

All instruments, Drums / Guitars / Bass / Vocals by cTrix 2024.  Guest tambourine from Dom!!

- Drums Recorded on Zoom L-12 with Rode Overheads, SM58s, SM57s, condenser room mic.  I did this after a jam session which a Funk band I play in, so when I hit record and launched into rock'n'roll there were certainly confused faces in the room!  Thanks to Dom for jumping on the tambourine!!  Woooo!

- Guitar is a 70's "lawsuit-era" Ibenez 2350 "Les Paul" from 1975

- Vocals recorded with 1950s era Altec 633 (again, on the Zoom)

This took faaaar more effort and plugins than I'd like to admit.... hahahaha.  What am I doing with my life... ahhh weekly beats...  But hey, I've never made a track like this before!  How fun are guitar solos?  woooooo

Everything sounds great!

Guitar solos ARE fun. smile

We are back to the 60's, solid tambourine! Dom did what he had to do. Seriously the track made me smile. Very nice.

rock and roll!!!

This is so catchy and fun and damn - you displayed some serious chops here! Hats off to you, sir!

Love the lyrics and truly a [bangin' solo]:D

cTrix, you've done it again. An absolute instant classic, a weeklybeat anthem for the ages.

It'll never be as good as https://weeklybeats.com/ctrix/music/know-tyme-4-weakly-beets-blues
And at least I lasted until week 9! (I'd lost it by week 4 in 2014) https://weeklybeats.com/ctrix/music/bonsoir---gut-nait---such-long-2

Dom slayed it.  He put a lot of energy into those dulcet tambo shakes!  Legend.

HAHAHA -- this is *incredible*

completely unexpected and so fun to hear you do something in this style, you multi-talented maniac.

BWAHAHAHAH... amazing... and now I feel like I need to go re-listen to The Presidents of the United States of America

I AM READY

lol love it

Big beat? NO! This week it's big-beat. Hope that clears it up!

Wow, more here happening in 90 seconds than some of my tracks 3 times as long. Sounds great, the lyrics are flawless. Kudos!

Woah! Excellent production on this fun song.  Guitar and drums sound awesome.  Def relate to those lyrics haha.  Tambourine especially appreciated smile 

so good dude

stop reading my diary ctrix

also awaiting for this to be played live by Square Tony except all the band members are dressed up as you

HAHAHAHAHA I LOVED THIS. You're capturing the vintage feel just perfectly! I lower my hat to you sir for this beautiful piece! A UFO in the usual Weekly beat tracks, just perfect. Favoriting this one 10 times over!

I'm also voting for "multi-talented maniac"
