A quick attempt at replaying one of my favourite pieces from the excellent Stranger Things OST, Kids. Original music composed by Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein.

The team behind Heavy Disco Records  / MofoHifi Records get out their analog oddities for a DJ friendly cover version of "Kids", their favourite track from Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein's spectacular 80s-inspired soundtrack to the smash hit Netflix series "Stranger Things".

With contributions from label boss and music journalist https://soundcloud.com/alijamieson, OWSLA prodigy https://soundcloud.com/phonat and multi-grammy nominated producer Hal Ritson (of https://soundcloud.com/theyoungpunx) this tasty club mix captures the vibe of the surprise music phenomenon of the year and repurposes it for the dance floor.

Heavy Disco Soundsystem - Kids (Stranger Things Club Mix)

The air is grey from ocean spray
I'm walking through your streets
September morning
The endless days stretch away
Like the chains that tie the ships
To their moorings

And I miss you
More each day
And I love you
Like words can never say

The rusting steel and rotten keels 
Of the ancient boats
Stranded on the shoreline
Reminds me of the way I feel 
After too many days
Without your sunshine

A seagull flies his keening cries
Sounds just like 
A babies wailing
As his mother burns the world still turns
But all the pretty flowers re fading
That I gave you yesterday
But you threw them all away

Fly away, fly away across the sea
Never say, don't you ever say
That you've forgotten me

Turn a page in the summer haze
Lying in the sun
The book you're reading
Ten thousand words like wingless birds
That look on high
And dream of flying

An anchor weighs no one stays
Long enough 
To taste the winter
But I will wait though it's getting late
To see your face
One more November

Nighthawk - Ever

Nighthawk - n. 
A recurring thought that only seems to strike you late at night—an overdue task, a nagging guilt, a looming and shapeless future—that circles high overhead during the day, that pecks at the back of your mind while you try to sleep, that you can successfully ignore for weeks, only to feel its presence hovering outside the window, waiting for you to finish your coffee, passing the time by quietly building a nest.

Nighthawk

Week 5 - Lookout Post

So I wanted to do an ambient track for a while - this is what I came up with! Inspired by one my favourite places in Barcelona and a homage(ish) to Brian Eno - Music for Airports

52 - a music project where I will release one beat/song every week for a year to track my progress from music production novice all the way to music production...non-novice!

Week 5 - Lookout Post

Hmmm. Hip-hop/soul, seemingly easy sounding beats to make: 'Yeah I'll do of those this week as I don't have much time and feeling a bit lazy'...Definitely couldn't be far from the truth!

Week 6 - A.Y.O

Needing a Name

Synthetic and passionate, featuring dreamy ethereal female vocals, electronic synths and a powerful Dubstep groove, building strings section that create a huge emotional track.
