One More Drop (Steel City Remix)
[INTRO] (The sound of a crowd roaring in the distance. A filtered, ticking hi-hat starts. The "Ooh-ah" sample is dry and chopped to the beat.) (Vocal Sample): Ooh-Ah! Ooh-Ah! (Vocal - Female, gritty UK accent): Yo, Selecta... Look at the crowd. They ain't going nowhere. Give 'em what they want. Just one... more... [VERSE 1] (The Bass enters: A massive, sliding "Power-Warp" that feels like it’s pulling the floorboards up.) Feet are heavy but the heart is light, We’ve been dancing through the Sheffield night. Condensation dripping off the wall, Waiting for the biggest one of all. I see the DJ reaching for the plate, The whole front row can hardly wait. Is it a dub? Is it a classic? Whatever it is, it’s gonna be drastic. [PRE-CHORUS] (The kick drum stops. A rising "Shepard Tone" creates an infinite feeling of tension. The "Ooh-ah" samples get faster.) (Vocal Sample - Accelerating): Ooh-ah-ooh-ah-ooh-ah! (Vocal): One more for the memories, One more for the crew. One more for the Steel City, Everything we do. (Whispered): Drop it. [THE DROP] (The "Steel City Donk" hits with maximum saturation. It’s a complex, melodic bassline that moves like a rollercoaster.) GIVE ME ONE MORE DROP! AND THE PARTY WON’T STOP! *(Bassline: WOBBLE-donk-WOBBLE-donk-WARP) GIVE ME ONE MORE DROP! TAKE IT RIGHT TO THE TOP! (Vocal Chop): ONE. (Vocal Sample): Ooh— MORE. (Vocal Sample): Ah— DROP. [VERSE 2] (The rhythm switches to a slightly more "Garagey" shuffle. Keep the bassline driving.) Sun is coming up behind the hill, But inside the club, it’s heavy still. No phones out, just eyes on the stack, Waiting for that sub to hit us back. From the Wicker to the London Road, Carrying that heavy-weight sonic load. The bouncer’s looking at his watch, it’s true, But he’s nodding to the rhythm just like me and you. [BREAKDOWN] (Total silence for two beats. Then, a beautiful, nostalgic piano riff—pure 90s rave style—plays over the "Ooh-ah" vocal.) (Vocal Sample - Soulful): Ooh... ah... (Vocal): Just one more... (Vocalist): Don’t let the music end, Don’t let the vibe descend. In the Steel City night... We’re gonna be alright. [BUILD UP] (The piano riff gets distorted. The snare roll becomes a solid wall of sound.) (MC): I see you! I see the energy! You want the reload?! (Crowd: YEAH!) You want the weight?! (Crowd: YEAH!) ONE MORE DROP! RELOOOOAD! [FINAL DROP] (The "VIP" version of the bassline. Even more "Wobble," even more "Donk." The heaviest 4x4 rhythm we’ve done yet.) GIVE ME ONE MORE DROP! AND THE PARTY WON’T STOP! (Vocal Loop): One more... One more... (Bass: Filthy pitch-bent warp) (Vocal Sample): Ooh-ah! Ooh-ah! STEEL CITY! [OUTRO] (The music suddenly cuts to just the "Ooh-ah" sample and the sound of the crowd cheering as the lights finally come up.) (Vocal Sample): Ooh... Ah. (MC): Safe journey home, everyone. See you next week. (Fade out with the hum of the amplifiers)
