[HOUSE] WORKOUT (Cmin - 124bpm)

Ok ... WORKOUT... this isn't as finished as some of my other tracks I post up on Soundcloud and here on Reasontalk... it has some nips and touches and polishing required that I know I need to make.



Anyway - I don't have a moment today to tidy it up - but I thought I'd get people's 'overall' thoughts ... with the caveat/understanding that I know it needs further work.

The aim with this track is to go for a straight down the line commercial club track. Kind of in the older Jax Jones 'esque camp. The sonics are simple (not too much going on at once) and arrangement again is straightforward. Intentionally so.

OK - Well the I guess the vote has it that I need to make a video then!!! And I will - yes I will source the Hoff and other outstanding characters saying WORKOUT. Shouldn't take long to find. It's a good job that in my previous life (for 15 odd years) I produced and directed TV shows for the BBC, ITV, SKY and C4.....

The other week I did a video for one of my other tracks - it was cobbled together footage from old raves 30+ years ago... I stayed up one night and cobbled it together.

If you haven't seen it... it's here...

shit, that bassline that comes in at around :48 is cool as hell. I don’t normally listen to this kind of thing, but I dig this. topically, it reminds me of MGMT’s She Works Out Too Much. I imagine this might be what ‘she’ listens to when she’s working out too much. 😆

That Guitfnky is the tried and tested (millions of times) authentic TB-303. I used to own one in the early 90's - which I sold for far too little and should have retained and made a fortune on eBay 30 years later. in the same way I was offered a Sequential Circuits Pro ONE around the same time for like £150. Oh dear... I should have said yes!
