This tries maybe a bit too hard to be burial-esque, but I don't think I've ever fully nailed that aesthetics in a way that this track does before. I wish I had a bit more time to tweak and diversify the drums, but hey, WeeklyBeats, amirite?

The phone message is by QuartzGate via Freesound.org and is licensed under CC BY-NC, which is why this track also uses that license in contrast to the BY-SA I usually do.

The NYC sounds at the beginning and end are from Freesound.org as well, licensed under CC-0.

Last but not least a shoutout to Cableguys' Shaperbox which is my latest aquisition and boy is this a powerful plugin. The beat alone uses two instances in different places. Nothing I did there couldn't be done in a different way, even with stock plugins, I guess, but it's just so convenient and immediate. Love it. (Unfortunately: Not sponsored)

awesome stuff UC

Dark and isolated, can hear the burial but that’s all good.

Nice tune, I get on with the vibe
