We already have Light's Out. Why do we need more? Because this is something different... I really dig this piece. It has strong Sir J/JM vibe, so this is quite different from other stuff I've heard from Matt (though, it slightly reminds me Frictionless). Slap bass here is so damn tasty. And the beat at 1:05 is really great. That effect at 2:39 is a nice touch as well. Very groovy, yet chilling. :nicework:

For some odd reason, this makes me think of Get Lucky by Daft Punk in the beginning, but alas, I was wrong once 0:35 hit. I've been listening to SuperiorX's work for quite a while. He's come a long way as a mixer and this shows how versatile he is. The choice of leads, chorus effect settings, and did I mention dat electro bass? Awesome! The composition in itself is fun and brings the Saturday night fever onto the modern dance floor.

Thanks for the kind words guys, I appreciate it! This is still one of my favorite songs that I've made.

Oh and Black_Doom, I must have a thing for unknowingly naming my compo tracks after existing OCR songs, because I did it twice in the WCRG 2013 (Lights Out, Circuit Breaker) and once during the WCRG 2011 (Under Construction) as well lol :razz:

I think I like this more than I did last year. I don't know if you improved it, but either way, this is so good. That first lead just rocks, and you make me wanna write another funk remix with a similar vibe.

Nah, I didn't tweak anything. I opened it up with the intention to, but then I decided against it. And thanks, I loved your Darkwing track from this round too!

So much chilled out funk, I'm just sliding all over the place here! Definitely a great track from the compo and a pretty sweet blend of sources. Nice slap bass. 80's crime drama, hmm, sounds about right, and as with most things 80's, that's right up my alley. Nice work.
