Yo thanks again Lampdog!

I have made a new short track based on 5 dimension's 'House for sale' (unfortunately more relevent than ever today):

Cool track!
I found the cello sample first, looped 4 bars of it in 3/4 time (I think the sample was in 6/4) and copied the sequence to 16 bars. I believe I then found the 16th note guitar hits and sampled that in. Then I found the piano keys that kick in at :17, :30, and :40 seconds, respectively.
After that, I added in the atmospheric drone note sample at :51 seconds. I was looking for another atmospheric sample to throw on to build more suspense, which is when I added in the violin at 1:09, but the sequence got too busy, so i decided to mute some of the piano keys to make room for it.
Turned out to be a nice vibe change. I added a few more kick drums after that, the open hi hat, and the sub kick. I think the last thing I added was the synth buildups you hear at :51, 1:03, 1:26 and 1:38, respectively.
Really pleased that you like this song, not a lot of people like my weirdo vampire music haha
