The avalanche of Interbay track drops whose titles all start with the letter "M" continues with today's track, "Mystery of Love."  

Originally, this track had a temporary file name of "Technobilly Stompers"--so, you can tell how much this track changed from what it was at the start.  This is no technobilly stomper, this is an upbeat funky disco tech house track.  

The "mystery" comes from the lyrics, which bounce between the desire to find a purposeful love and the desire for one's love to be felt.  Is love real?  Can it be felt?  Does it mean more than just a need for companionship, more than simple longing?  

As human beings, we are born with the need to be loved and to express the love you have.  Why?  What is the evolutionary benefit of this need?  

We may never know for sure, but nearly all philosophy and most art is about the question.  

So, get ready to dance, get ready to clap, and get ready to believe in love with Interbay's "Mystery of Love"--the latest daily drop here on SoundCloud.  

As always, I hope you'll listen and give the track a like.  (Reposting, sharing, adding to playlists, and commenting--also quite welcome.)

"Mystery of Love" *SoundCloud Exclusive*

was für eine sensationelle Party....schön, dass ich dabei sein und mitwirken durfte 

Italian Stallion @ 40er guido.m

There was a trend in 90s house music where the actual lyrics of whatever song was being sampled (and filtered) was purposefully inaccurate--instead of saying what they originally said, they were listed as to what they sounded like...and because of the brain's desire to discover and embrace patterns--whether or not those patterns are actually there--the brain will start to hear what your eyes tell you that you should be hearing.  

The best example of this was when Chicago (yes, the band) had their song "Street Sounds" sampled by The Bucketheads (Kenny Dope!)--but the song was not titled "Street sounds fall into my mind," as the original lyrics would suggest.  

Instead, the song was called "Da Bomb."  

(...ahhh, you see what I did there.)  

Well, this was going to be another one (though, nearly 30 years later)...as I was going to call this track "Diva Getting Stronger"...despite the fact that the first vocal element is saying "Keep On Getting Stronger"--you can "hear" it as "Diva Getting Stronger."  The other vocal sample "could" also be heard as "Diva, Diva, Diva, Diva, Body Strong..."  It's not, the sample says "Keep That"--not "Diva."  But it's more fun to think of it as, like the thumbnail, a fierce ruling diva pumping iron in the gym and seeing massive gains.  

This might be my favorite Interbay house track.  Big statement, I know, but this fills me with the same vibe I had when I spent every Saturday night spinning for a packed house of 1200 and the juice that provided.  It is a hard feeling to replicate, all these years later--but this track has hints of it.  

Would I have spun this?  I think I would have.  

...and I think it would have kept the floor jumping.  

Let me know if you agree.  Give this track a listen, like it if you do, repost it, share it, add it to a playlist, leave a comment..in general, have fun with it.  

And it would mean a lot if you followed this page.  Every single day (so far!), fresh baked Interbay tracks emerge from Phantom Laboratories West to be served up here on SoundCloud.  Pull up a chair and join us or delicious Interbay every day!

"Getting Stronger" *SoundCloud Exclusive*

"I put the hands on the record.  I put the hands up."  

I was a nightclub dj for twenty years...and boy did I love hip-house.  I loved cut & paste.  I loved being really active in the mix.  I loved records that blurred genre lines.  I loved records that kept surprising me and never stopped moving.  

i would have loved "Hands and Needles" by Interbay.  I wish I would have made it when I was still spinning.  

But, because I also love you--the people willing to spend a few minutes to listen to these daily drops of Interbay--I did something I almost never do.  

I edited myself.  (I know, right?)  

Somewhere in my head, there's a version of this track that doesn't fade out, that kept going and building and...well, it would have been as long as any of the often Interbay tracks posted here.  

Instead, you're getting a far more easily digestible version, suitable for radio play...with the energy compressed into something approaching a criticality.  

I honestly think that it is better this way--though, I reserve the right to change my mind--but, for now, the longer version will be held in The Vault...perhaps only to be shared with Phantom Laboratories West Patreons some day...  (Some day...)  

The only decision that I regret, but one I felt was necessary, is the addition of a vocal synth to a sample that would definitely have put Icarus into potential danger.  The sad part is that recognizing the sample would definitely have given you a giggle--it certainly makes me smile every time I think of it.  (And I have a version without the vocal synth on that sample to amuse myself, that I daren't share here--again, perhaps a bonus for future Patreons?  (Perhaps.) )

(If you want to deconstruct the mix to better imagine the un-vocal synth'd version, ask yourself why at the very end of the track does the vocal become "hands across the needles" (or why the word "needles" is repeated, with effects that make it sound like it is underwater?)  A love of 70s pop should give you your answer.  (One more hint to make it obvious?  "The butter wouldn't melt, so they put it in a pie.") )

This track is purposefully a little messy.  It is part of the charm of the era that it is an homage to, that sense of imperfectness makes it feel, for lack of a better term, a bit more punk rock.  Just as you didn't need to be Emerson Lake & Palmer to make a compelling and glorious noise with your limited skill, you didn't need to be DJ Qbert to cut & paste and scratch a bit and make something delightful and floor filling.  

As my best times dj'ing were almost always on a Massive Saturday Night, it feels rather natural to share this track in time for Saturday night clubbing.  Even if your club is, essentially, your home, your car or your headphones...I hope that Interbay can get your blood pumping.  

Sorted.  

As always, I merely ask that you give this Interbay track a listen and a like, if you do.  You could also choose to repost it, share it, add it to a playlist, and comment on it.  

And please, follow this page!  It is important to me--and it means that you won't miss any new Interbay track.  (Did you know that there's a new Interbay track posted here every day (so far!)?)

"...but we want more!"
