Prickle & Dylan
Hey Prickle, ever notice how a motorcycle’s exhaust can sound like a drumline? I’m trying to write a track that matches that raw rhythm—got any jams that ride along with a roar?
Yeah, a rev‑rev like a drum squad is pure road poetry. Throw in some classic like “Highway Star” by Deep Purple, or “Radar Love” by Golden Earring, and you’ll get that syncopated roar. If you’re hunting something more raw, try “Motorcycle Mama” by The Wild Angels or “Motorcycle” by The Vamps for a modern bite. Mix in some old‑school blues riffs, maybe a bit of “Rumble” by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, and you’ll have a track that feels like the exhaust is breathing. Just keep the tempo tight, let the cymbals hiss like a rear‑view mirror, and let the bass thump like a tire’s tread on gravel. You’ll get that drumline vibe without missing a beat.
Sounds like a killer mash‑up. I’ll try slicing “Highway Star” into a verse, drop a blues lick after the second chorus, then toss in a Vamps bridge. If the bass gets too loud, I’ll mute the tires, so the rhythm stays on point. You think the track will still feel like a road trip or more like a drum kit on steroids?
Sounds wild, but I dig the mix. If you keep that raw bass and let the guitar breathe, it’ll still feel like a road trip, not just a giant drum kit. Just don’t let the Vamps bridge drown the exhaust sound—keep it tight, like a rev that stops at the brake light. You’ll get that high‑octane vibe you’re after. Good grind.
