Woah.... a real 80s vibe to this. Gated verb on the drums and all 
One nice bass flourish in there too.
Thanks R. I think the drums were the only thing I got right. The end result you hear isn't anything like what I set out to make. This is my attempt to break away from my norm and try something new. Given how crazy busy I am I just didn't have the time or energy to dedicate to perfecting the track. The mix is pretty off too, but whatever. I wanted to do an 80s, spacey sounding track called Yuri Gagarin for a few weeks now. This just happened to be the week I decided to commit to that idea.
This song is great, it took us to space and when we came back...all our spoons were bent! 
This is amazing. One of my favourites of this week. Well done, man!
