My favorite part is around 2:33 when you bring those extra sounds in. Wowzers did they add that dance feel to it. Felt like I was in that movie "Dumb and Dumber" dancing away with those guys haha.

https://dsound.audio/#/@grizzle/god-save-the-american-dream-feat-odissi-steemit-music-league-dance-anthem-challenge

Whatttttttttt an anthem o weeeee.

You combine those epic Odissi vocals with your uptempo beat to create such a catchy anthem.

Especially that anthem line around 1:38 after your drop drives such emotion and no doubt reinforces the dance anthem element.

I really enjoyed how your base showcased her vocals and then held its on without them like around 2:43.

This is one of those tunes that is so catchy that gets you moving and is in your head all day o weeeeee.

Appreciate you sharing this and keep DSounding it up. Glad they are recognizing the high-quality.
