Keep Loving Me
Dark electronica with vocal sample refrain. Sparse, bleepy synth intro with watery delay effects. ‘Keep on lovin’ me’ female vocal sample repeated rhythmically over a determined, striding slow breakbeat. Tender yet menacing synths play out a hooky melody on top. Unsettling and tense with a terrifying passion, obsessive yearning to suit a dramatic TV sequence or fashion story.

Fat, flashy synths call-and-answer, competing for space. Expansive synth section like Mario Kart’s rainbow road before another wonky bass drop with slow, skewed beats. Final section is a slow synth strut. Big, bouncy, colourful and positive with a bit of crazy thrown in, would suit a reality show montage or bright and shiny pop culture documentary.

Road To Somewhere
Bouncy electronic track. Arpeggiated synth, soft beats, washes of warm synth chords and an effects-laden wistful synth melody.
