Struggled to get something going this week, initially had a completely different track and then scrapped that yesterday. Thankfully some old project files came to the rescue, drums are from an old project and the bass from another old project. Once I had those two the rest fell into place pretty fast.

loving those sunbaked dusty vibes from the start. The tone of the drums is perfect for that main pad too. Oooh that piano line so nice. This was a lovely escape and excellent sounding mix. thank you!
I love all these aspects that make your tracks - the slight vinyl crackles, the vintage beat (I love that hit with the reverb in the back), and cool use of vocals and scratches! It always gives a urban/vintage/film noir feel.
That horn like sound around 2:20 is nice, I like how it ping pongs left and right.
By the way how do you do your scratches?
Oh very much yes.
I'm in some kinds of boards of canada, sunrise heaven right here.
A week 10 fav right here.
Delicious wobble and saturation (and that scratched & stuttered piano) with a nice beat. Those vocals add to the relaxed, "just makin' some beats" feel. I love how it's full but not overdone.

Thanks for the comments, love the description of urban/vintage/film noir.
I do scratches one of four ways: 1) rare time I will just use a scratch sample (this one is boring) 2) I have hundreds of hip hop 12” and will scratch an acapella on the turntable (this one is fun) 3) load sound file into Traktor Pro and use a Traktor MIDI controller for scratching or 4) use a plug-in like Flex Beat from Akai. I love scratching but wish I had a proper setup for it.
