Our first Top Gear submission, Rayza recently submitted this peppy techno bit that features a straightforward groove, four-on-the-floor drum track, some nice filtered breakbeats augmenting said drums, but most importantly, extensive announcer samples and the sound of cars racing by with that excellent doppler effect pitch bend. Very precise retriggering and splicing of these samples repurposes them as percussion at points, which is especially nice. The lead synth could have used something extra - maybe a delay or some filtering or modulation - but I actually like the in-between bits better than the chorus. In these portions, specifically where the samples interact with the music & drums, the piece really captures the feel of the race track. The intro alone conjures up mental pictures of burning rubber and the smell of gasoline. Also, Rayza sent me a screenshot to make my life a little easier - look closely and you might notice something :) Solid work that expands upon the original. Fun. And it is . . . GO!
