Knowing the right time to Move On is the tricky part. Another song in 3/4. I used lots of reverb on the guitar parts to disguise how simple and basic my lead lines are. more

Dance music is a complete departure for me but I had fun exploring it. Came up the basic riff many years ago on vintage Wurlitzer piano and for a long time it was an instrumental. The lyrics came very quickly once I had the theme. "Your destination stays the same if you don't change your route." more
