Rainy: (YouTube description, excerpt)

I knew that I couldn’t miss an opportunity to remix what is, at time of writing, my most popular VE song for my solo. That being said this song was a bit of challenge. For this track I was aiming to emulate the styles of Hideki Naganuma and 2 Mello to create a Jet Set Radio type vibe. I’m not as familiar with the plunderphonic dance/big beat style those two are known for so knew going in that it would be a pain to write. Not helping matters was my commitment to make sure every song was referenceable by the following track on the tracklist. After a couple of false starts, I finally got something in the form of “RUN IT BACK”. I knew going into this that I wanted more pronounced original elements in conjunction with the D2R Riff. These elements a synth bass line that I could reference in other tracks, some stabs, and some psychedelic funk guitar. The final product is something I consider to be a worthy successor to D2R’s daft punk infused dance rock. This song understands the CONCEPT OF LOVE.
