The ticking clock counts down the seconds and as it strikes the drums drop in with busy and odd percussion. These foley sound effects create unusual and surprising moments while the restless kick drum keeps marching. 110 Bpm. Full Mix.
The sound of wood is key on this track. A consistent groove form the bongos provides a rhythmic guide for castanets, cajon, ratchet and wood block. The only exception is the tambourine. 132 Bpm. Full Mix.
This sparse track is nervous and encouraging at the same time. The percussion creates a busy atmosphere and while the ticking brings some pressure, the hand claps motivate and cheer you on. 126 Bpm. Full Mix.
