Here's MIDNIGHT... been playing around with getting deep bendy bass/subs, multi-layered arps, and super crisp drums to sit nicely together.

Thoughts?

Thanks RNW!! Love your quote - "somehow empty ... but it works good" !!

I started with the vocal and cut it up extensively to make it interesting and sit around the kick, and added varying vocal backing layers that I knew I could introduce to keep it interesting. I soon realised the vocal was so strong/distinct at that point that it didn't need to be hidden inside a big/full music production. The musical elements and drums just needed to support it - by emphasising the groove of the vocal and making it danceable.

HOWEVER - there is actually a lot of hidden details, which evolve over time, like the various bass lines/squeals and percussion.

I think you like the song... as you said... "LIKE THIS SONG" about 10 times!!!

Great job on the drums and the subby bass.
