The Bet

The Bet is an indie dance track that leans a little more on the darker side and clocks in at an economical 2:47. Let’s get to it!

Bandcamp

Spotify

The Bet came together quick, with minimal production. For the producers out there, you will hear sidechain compression being used for the first time to distinguish the plucks, bass and kick. Overall, there didn’t need to be much added to it. With less going on, the simplicity feels cleaner than some other productions.

I hope you enjoy!

The Bet Lyrics

i meant to tell you

don’t mind it alone

what cards am i holding

as you look at your phone

now you say you’re calling

did you check out my tell

want to know if i’m folding

have you put down your bet

all i wanted 

all i needed

was to light a fire

this round is tiring

dealer called your name

want to raise the stakes again

but your hand has been played

all i wanted 

all i needed

was to light a fire

all i needed

all i wanted 

was tangled in my desire

thought i wanted 

thought i needed

promises from a liar
