Thanks :) The bassline is a lot different to what I'm used to so I had to put a lot of time into getting it right, I normally stick to more simple basslines but tried to switch it up for a change. I agree for sure the kick doesn't work quite as well by itself, I was just trying to add some variety to it so you notice the bassline more when it comes back in.
I don't know if I should be posting a track that's not related to the challenge in the comments but if you'd like to hear the version with vocals on it here's a soundcloud link: https://soundcloud.com/fresheiremusic/feel-alive-fresh-eire
Thanks again for taking the time to listen.
Thanks for sharing the vocal track! For some reason I was expecting female vocals, not sure why...but this works well too. It definitely does add more to the track. Good stuff!
Thanks for listening :)
