Clueless in Clubland

My first real semi-successful house track, built from an espontaneous jam.
I used my Korg Electribe 2s as a MIDI sequencer and created the bass line you could hear around the second thrid of the song in my Eurorack setup with a single oscillator and some delay.
I dumped the audio and messed around like I was John Digweed for a whole afternoon, and dumped everything to audio. It was a 4 bar sketch but I actually had a lot of fun.
However, back in Ableton I felt something wasn't "house enough", so it's the first time I tried an actual subbass to tie everything together. It's just a super-simple instance of Ableton's analog with a single sinewave and no filter. I'm afraid it's too loud, but I didn't have enough time to adjust the mix testing different speakers.
Even in my free time, I'm doing some work for a scheduled training/testing in two days time, so everything was made on stolen time. Anyway, I think the song could be promising once I figure out the correct levels.
Maybe one day I'll get the perfect kick for a techno track... I'll keep wishing
Hope you have a great new seven days in the world, WB family! Peace out and spread the love !!!
