A drum n bass cut, Yellow Shoes sits in B minor (10A) at 175 BPM. Tonally it lands punchy, neutral in mood. The groove is loose and less beat-driven. The mix is almost entirely instrumental. Its spectrum is weighted to the sub and kick, with a heavy low end. The master is loud and heavily compressed. A 2011 production that still circulates in sets. Less groove-driven than 96% of DJ Marky's catalogue. In a set it works best as an opener or closing-set piece.
