Contaminated from New Era by Nickels Hawkeye

Contaminated was the last instrumental I included on the album. It started out at about 80 BPM and ended up at 181 BPM. So, the drums sound fairly organic in this one as well but they are also a kit. I think the scratchy record sound that's in it helps make it sound a little bit more realistic. There are two different synths in the verse that complement each other and come in and out of the verse. The main scratch that I used is actually in the baseline and if you were to listen to the sound by itself, it would be a patch cord buzz sound. I just pitched them to the right pitch to match the chord progression in the instrumental. Overall, this has a fairly dreamy sound and I really like it.
