WAVE RACE 64 1st-2nd Goal ReMix 80's pop... NOW WITH MAIN VOCALS! :D


Recommended Posts

So this is a total do-over of an old WIP of mine... an 80's disco cover of my favourite motif from Wave Race 64... the tunes that play when you come in first or second place. The need to revisit this WIP was strong, and inbetween other tracks I'm working on, this was a great pallet cleanser. It's a little repetitive at the moment, because the vocals aren't in yet, but yeah.

Source tunes here (1st & 2nd tracks in video clip):

My WIP V1: http://www.box.net/shared/xniksevmnxu9infqnuip

My WIP V2 with vocals: http://www.box.net/shared/mdpulj55q6z1kssefqun

As you'll be able to hear, I've elaborated a lot on the original source tunes, each of which is 30-odd seconds long.

Still sounds a little new, so forgive some of the balancing issues, missing elements and placeholder samples. This will have vocals, I will record them when I have a bit of time to myself. The WIP itself is a complete re-master of my original remix, and sounds about a billion times better than the old track haha :D

The name of the track is 'It All Comes Back To You', which is what the original WIP was called... a title that will make sense once the lyrics are in there.

Expect a lot more soon!

Oh, and it's totally got a Rick Astley vibe... just sayin'. :D

Jeez thanks guys!!!

This is the Brass soundfont... got it from Hammersound or whatever it is YAAARS ago. It's old, but brilliant for 80's stuff:

Oh, and these are the lyrics I've got so far... verse 2 is still subject to change.

They're cheesy, and I've packed a fair few song titles from Stock Aiken Waterman songs into them as an ode hehe. I TOTALLY fit 'we're no strangers to love' in there too :D

VERSE ONE:

Turn around;

I have never seen you before,

but I'd like to get to know you some more.

You're straight out of a fantasy.

I can feel the heat between us.

(You're the one that I need right now)

Let me tell you something;

Move a little bit closer and just rock with me, oh yeah.

(You're the one that I see right now)

This time I know it's for real.

Together we can blow this night away.

CHORUS: (x2)

I've got my head in the clouds.

I'm jumping around;

You're love has got me tumbling upside down.

Nobody can do the things that you do.

I feel the change and it all comes back to you.

VERSE TWO:

Turn around;

You know that we're no strangers to love.

These nights together are all I dream of.

And when I think about it I die

I fall for you a little more everytime.

(Guilty of love in the first degree)

Let me show you something;

There's nothing to it so just roll with me, oh yeah.

(All I need is you here with me)

This is where the story ends

Because it's happenin' all over again.

CHORUS: (x2)

I've got my head in the clouds.

I'm jumping around;

You're love has got me tumbling upside down.

Nobody can do the things that you do.

I feel the change and it all comes back to you.

WIP 2 with Main Vocals:

http://www.box.net/shared/mdpulj55q6z1kssefqun

So the main vocals are in. Not mixed in properly yet, but yeah they're there :D Still missing the backing vocals, harmonies and all the little vocal snippits I want in there though. Some of the vocal transitions may be little abrupt, and they need a little more de-essing, but that'll be fixed in time.

These are now the final version of the lyrics:

(and YES! I DID end up throwing a little 'we're no strangers to love' in there... LULZZZ)

Turn around;

I have never seen you before,

but I'd like to get to know you some more.

You're straight out of a fantasy.

I can feel the heat between us.

(You're the one that I need right now)

Let me tell you something;

Move a little bit closer and just rock with me, oh yeah.

(You're the one that I see right now)

This time I know it's for real.

Together we can blow this night away.

CHORUS: (x2)

I've got my head in the clouds.

I'm jumping around;

You're love has got me tumbling upside down.

Nobody can do the things that you do.

VERSE TWO:

Turn around;

You know that we're no strangers to love.

And when I think about it I die

I fall for you a little more everytime.

(Guilty of love in the first degree)

Let me tell you something;

There's nothing to it so just rock with me, oh yeah.

(All I need is you here with me)

This is where our story starts and ends

Because it's happenin' all over again.

CHORUS: (x2)

I've got my head in the clouds.

I'm jumping around;

You're love has got me tumbling upside down.

Nobody can do the things that you do.

I feel the change and it all comes back to you.

Lemme know what you think! :D :D :D
