# HOUSE IS BACK – HIGH ENERGY DJ REMIX [Intro – MALE, close-mic, filtered, low East London swagger] Yeah... Alright... You hear that? [FEMALE – airy] Mm... [Filtered beatbox] Bmm... tss... bmm-ka... tss... [Reverse vocal swell] House is... [Beat stop.] [MALE – whisper] Back. [Chopped stereo] Back... back... [Beat returns.] When the room locks in and everything clicks. [FEMALE – ghost vocoder] Feel it... --- [Verse 1 – MALE, relaxed but moving; tighter phrasing] I love the vibe. House is back. But it ain't just a phrase. It's that second when the kick comes through and the whole place changes shape. Get me in the studio, door shut, one mad little idea, staying till it works. Someone's got a loop. Someone's got a voice. Someone's tapping on the table till they find the noise. [FEMALE] Bare ideas. [MALE] That's where it starts. [Delay throw] Starts... --- [Build 1 – quicker call-and-response] [FEMALE] One sound. [MALE] Then another. [FEMALE] Kick comes in. [MALE] Bass follows. [FEMALE] Hold that. [MALE] Run that. [FEMALE] Again. [Male beatbox] Bmm-ka... tss... [Ghost vocoder] Again... again... [Filter closes.] [MALE – whisper] You feel that? [Half-bar silence.] [FEMALE] There. [Filter snaps open.] [Both] That's the one. --- [Chorus – FEMALE lead, MALE responses; immediate club lift] House is back. Feel it in your chest. Kick hits. Bass rolls. Whole room moving. [FEMALE] Feel it... [Ghost vocoder] Feel it... feel it... [MALE] Right there. [Chopped vocal] Back... back-back. [Beatbox fill] Bmm-ka-tss! --- [Verse 2 – MALE, faster London flow] I know what I started. Kept banging out tracks. Wouldn't stop. Wouldn't wait around for somebody else to call it right. Sometimes the sound just lands. Bit weird. Bit mad. Hit record, shift the drums, move the bass, flip the vocal— [Vinyl stop.] [MALE – laugh] Safe. [Beat returns.] [FEMALE] You get gassed. [MALE] Little bit. [FEMALE] Proper gassed. [MALE] Allow it. [Dub echo] Allow it... --- [Pre-Chorus – tighter, rising] Don't need a reason. Don't need a name. If the room starts moving, you know it's got flame. [FEMALE] Turn it up. [MALE] Turn it up. [FEMALE] Don't touch that. [MALE] Why? [FEMALE] 'Cause that bit's rude. [Dub echo] Rude... rude... [Beatbox accelerates] Bmm-ka-tss-ka... Bmm-ka-tss-ka... [Clap roll.] --- [Chorus 2 – wider, faster] House is back. Feel that pressure. Bassline rolling, two-step skippin', everybody locked in together. [FEMALE – clean lift] Back... [MALE – low shadow] Right there. [Chopped stereo] Back-back. [Beat hit] Run it. --- [DJ Break – very short, punchy] [MALE] Lock in. [FEMALE – vocoder] Lock in... [MALE] Turn it up. [FEMALE] Again. [Beatbox exposed] Bmm... tss... Bmm-ka-tss-ka... [Filter closes.] [MALE – whisper] Don't lose it. [Tape stop.] [Silence.] [FEMALE] You heard me. [One-beat mute.] [MALE] Go. [Beat slams back.] [Ghost vocoder] Go... go... --- [Fast Break – MALE, double-time East London rap] New Jacks coming through, fresh sounds, fresh ideas, late-night sessions, bare cables, cheap headphones, big dreams in small rooms. Make one. Break one. Flip one. Bring it back. Kick off. Bass on. Cut that. Drop that. Run it. If it hits— keep it. If it doesn't— Safe. Next one. [FEMALE] Again! [Rapid beatbox] Bmm-ka-tss-ka-tss! [Stutter] A-a-again. --- [Final Build – accelerating layers, almost no gaps] [MALE] We got the kick. [FEMALE] We got the bass. [MALE] We got the voice. [FEMALE] Raise the pace. [Reverse swell] Higher... [Ghost vocoder] Higher... higher... [MALE – rapid fragments] Kick. Bass. Voice. Lights. Crowd. Move. [FEMALE] Don't stop. [Clap roll accelerates.] [One-beat silence.] [MALE – whisper] Back. [Beatbox burst] Bmm-ka-tss-ka! [Both] GO. --- [Final Chorus – maximum energy, rapid hook variations] House is back. Can you feel that? Kick hits hard. Bassline rolling. Whole room shaking when the groove comes round. [FEMALE] Feel it! [MALE] Run it! [FEMALE] Feel it! [MALE] Run it back! [Chopped vocal] Back. Back-back. BACK. [Ghost vocoder] House is back... [Beat cut.] [FEMALE – clean high] BACK! [Full groove.] [Both] House is back! [Rapid chopped vocal] Ba-ba-back! Back-back! [Beatbox] Bmm-ka-tss-ka-tss! [FEMALE] You get me? [MALE] Yeah. --- [Outro – very short] [FEMALE] Still on? [MALE] Course. [Ghost vocoder] House is... [FEMALE] Back. [Filtered beatbox] Bmm... tss... [Delay throw] Back... back... [Tape stop.]
