Minor Discomfort

Howdy folks!
Here is another submission from a week where I barely had any time for music making.
I'm currently out of town, traveling with family, so most of my free time has been spent with them.
And since I knew I'd be spending a good chunk of time driving back home on Sunday, I knew I needed to get this one out a little early. So on Saturday night, before going to bed, I was able to get some time to myself and threw this little thing together.
Again, like last week, it barely has any kind of variation, but I still had a lot of fun with it. I'm particularly proud of the percussive elements. Fell back once again on those ScotRail samples too, they're just too fun to ignore.
The upright bass sample is also so damn fun, I just want to use that all the time. It's from the BABA LAB INGREDIENTS sample pack, which is an awesome CC0 Public Domain resource BTW.

I feel bad that I've not been able to dedicate much time to weekly beats this year. I feel like I've been on a long streak of "didn't do anything during the week, gonna throw together something last minute" and I think it really shows. This is a habit I would like to move away from.

Anyways, hope y'all had a great week!

Peace!!!

That bass is great! This one is a bit quieter than your usual, but just as groovy. Excellent vocal chops (and nice to hear the Scotrail samples again!).

Double Bass & ScotRail!!! What could go wrong 🤷🏻great stuff M8! Next track Scottish Rockabilly!!? 🙌🏻🩵

I know it was thrown together quickly, but it sounds good to me and I wouldn't have minded it going on a little longer.  The bass sounds great and the vocal samples are a lot of fun.

Oh yais those lil percussive elements sound so nice with the Double Bass.  Love the pitchy outro!

I know this one big_smile But then again, doing something is better than doing nothing, so it's good that you still took the time to make something! And I agree, the percussive elements are really nice

I think weeklybeats is always going to have stretches of time where we don't have the capacity to put in as much time as we'd like. The fact that you're still here making music despite that is great. And this song is great! I love the bass and the vocal samples make it all very compelling. Nice work!
