Speak & Spell is always great and it fits well here. I like all of the other sounds. The mix is perfect.

Nice job.

Glad to get the "Frantz seal of approval" i'm sure theres been hundreds of tracks that have used
speak n spell samples. the one that sticks out in my mind the most is "Genetic Engineering" by OMD!

I haven't heard "Genetic Engineering" in ages. It turns out they made a cool video for it.

'Speak and Spell' - really shouldn't work, but it does, so well!!!

I've got a full set SaS samples in Kontakt..I'm going to have to play around with them for an hour just to get the whole idea out of my head! :0)

For me this has a 1980s film theme vibe - loads of simple, catchy hooks in there + a good groove underneath it all...same ballpark as Axel F and others.

Nice punchy sound coming from the bass on here, and I really liked the pads too. The Speak and Spell will be 40 years old soon. It's hard to believe. This is another fine piece of '80s retrobilia. Great mix.

Good work
