Week 5!!!!! Man this was a tough one to make. I’ve been sitting on this beat for half a year and had to force myself to write lyrics for it. I was going for a sound similar to last weeks (a bit flumey, future bass inspired). This one is inspired by Flumes older beats with a slightly wonky septuplet swing (a ratio of 4:3 each bar). Tried a quintuplet swing (3:2) but it was hard to subdivide without getting messy at this tempo.

These lyrics are about a trip through the sand dunes near where I live.

The vocals are a bit low in the mix, but it's got a good vibe overall.

really cool vocal layering going on here! and excellent use of dynamics between the different sections

Man I love these drop sections. Really well mixed and catchy. The vocal bits are great off-kilter leadins.

Good work!!
