The Boneyard Bounce (Contest Cover)
Heavy festival house at 128 BPM with massive kick, sidechained sub-bass and aggressive swing brass stabs layered with distorted synths. Intro begins with retro gramophone swing, dusty trumpet, vinyl crackle and filtered radio-style vocal. Playful cabaret-style singing with jazzy phrasing and sarcastic tone contrasts with dark orchestral builds using crowd chants, rolling snares and rising brass hits. First drop explodes with heavy bass, sharp trumpet stabs, demonic choir shouts and shouted swing-style vocals. Midsection slows into an old smoky jazz club atmosphere with upright bass, brushed drums, muted trumpet and crooner-style vocals, processed with vintage crackle. Build-up accelerates with whispered vocals, distorted brass and heartbeat-like drums until tension peaks. Final drop delivers extreme festival energy with layered distorted swing trumpets, massive choirs, roaring bass wall, thunderous percussion and screamed vocals, creating overwhelming dark power.

Lyrics
Short instrumental intro
Verse 1 – Dark Industrial spooky rhyme
Midnight strikes and the moon’s aglow,
Down in the graveyard, the spirits show,
Skeletons shimmy, goblins prance,
Everyone’s here for the ghostly dance.
Chorus – Machinegun Rap Flow, Amazing Flow, nonchalance rap
Do the Boneyard Bounce, we pounce through the haunted house,
Ghoul in the hall, walls call, I crawl and I scrawl my vows.
Float like a ghost, coast with the most, skeletons toast,
Spin with a scare, rip through the air, shake your bones like you don’t care!
Dip with a shriek, sneak, peak, havoc we wreak,
Step on the creak, freak, tweak, feel the floor under your feet.
Bounce, announce, trounce every ounce of doubt,
Move with the sound, underground, let your soul scream out!
Verse 2
Fog rolls in, the pumpkins glow,
The floorboards creak with every toe,
Spirits twirl in a ghostly trance,
You’re not alive ‘til you join this dance!
Bridge – Rattle & Grind Breakdown
Left bone, right bone, rattle 'em loud,
Shake that spine and draw a crowd,
Circle 'round the ancient tomb
Graveyard's got that monster boom!
Final Chorus – Machinegun Rap Flow, Natural Rhyme, Amazing Flow, nonchalance rap
Do the Boneyard Bounce, we rumble through the crypt tonight,
Ghoul in the mist, twist, resist, shadows flicker in the light.
Glide like a wraith, sway, play, skeletons rise and toast,
Spin with the fear, pierce the air, shake your bones from coast to coast!
Dip with a howl, prowl, growl, havoc unleashed in every streak,
Step on the plank, crank, yank, feel the ground beneath your feet.
Bounce, renounce, trounce every shadow of doubt,
Move with the sound, underground, let the darkness scream out!
Outro – whispered
Bounce… bounce… the boneyard bounce…
Where the dead don’t sleep… they dance…
