Keep coming back to this. Super catchy in a slightly cheesy way. There’s also an ace Italian version.

Been listening to the new Billy Nomates album which is full of driving, soaring chorus 80s style pop rock tracks, this is probably my fave, War On Drugsesque with a New Order type bassline.

Heard after my 18year old daughter monopolised the car play on holiday

Monstrously good
Is there a house banger version as there should be

This has schooled me
Around 100 tracks were used on “Schoolin’ Life”; they were roughly split with 50 for the music and 50 for the vocals. As stated by Swivel, musically the aim of the mix was to take a large number of tracks and create a perfect balance. So, he used Waves’ Metaflanger on the percussion and some of the snares, and spent some time EQ’ing. Swivel explained that there was much parallel processing on the lead vocal. The lead-vocal bus was muted to a second bus, and one of them was entirely crushed on a 50:1 compression ratio which was totally limited and with a very low threshold. He elaborated, "It creates a very gritty distorted sound in there, really low to taste, and it fills in the lead vocal very nicely. The crushed vocal runs quietly underneath.

Waves Metaflanger makes me think this is a piss take!
