The third and final tune of the latest session for UK-based Cyclamen is a upbeat, groovy number called "Comfort". I especially love the subtle interplay of female and male vocals.
I saw my role in this one as more of a 'nuance-enhancer', as Hayato's beautiful kick/snare groove was already in place. I added ghosts, dual hi-hat work (strikes and foot splashes) and the transition to the ride halfway through each verse. I also added some fill-ins at the end to give it a bit more momentum and power.
For the visual component, I incorporated a third camera angle to highlight some of the deceivingly difficult foot work.
