This is an instrumental part of what may be an instrumental song, but I’m not sure. Here’s its musical notation to the best of my ability: [![Imgur](https://i.imgur.com/pejyAUY.png "imgur.com") ](https://imgur.com/pejyAUY) If you can’t read musical notation:[spoiler]Each line is one measure. Dots represent quarter-note beats, numbers are pitches. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 = do re mi fa sol la ti do. I think the song is in the key of E. ```auto . . 4-. 6------- . . 3-. 5------- . . 4-. 6---5-. 7---6-. 8------- ``` [/spoiler]It’s about 165±10 bpm and the part that’s stuck in my head is an 8-measure loop. The main instrument is a keyboard – I’m having a hard time describing its timbre, but it feels “soft” to me. There’s what I think is a drum machine, with maybe a soft da-da-da, da-da-DAH on the 1&2, 3&4 beats. I thought I could remember its bass line, but it turns out I was thinking of Björk’s “Army of Me” – the actual bass line could be similar to that, but maybe not. I’d guess the song is from this decade, possibly the early part – maybe part of an indie rock song or maybe chillwave electronica. Any hints or guesses would be appreciated. Thanks! ---

After hearing Adele’s “Water Under the Bridge” for the first time in a while on the drive to work today, I now think I made up a remix of it in my head. Thanks and sorry if you looked into it! ---

> [@Kimble](#): > > After hearing Adele’s “Water Under the Bridge” for the first time in a while on the drive to work today, I now think I made up a remix of it in my head. Thanks and sorry if you looked into it! jk lol I was listening to Apple Music’s “Indie Hits: 2012” playlist and heard the song I was trying to describe: Jai Paul’s “[Jasmine](https://youtu.be/RWQMg56ZVZY)”. I probably heard it from either (1) playing that playlist before or (2) listening to the Radio Mirror Park station on Grand Theft Auto V. (I spent about 15% of the game listening to that; most of the rest was on Non Stop Pop. But that’s another thread.) Sorry to disturb you, but I felt like I needed to correct this on the minuscule chance that someone else had the same question. Carry on! ---

Well… 4 months is a lot longer than it usually takes us to solve this kind of thing. Sorry it took so long but glad you got your answer! 😃
