Big Feat
Electronica Song | Big Feat by Joey Arata | Stream Free
Big Feat is one of the two jams I've composed using 3rd-party sample loops. This piece was built from the Acid sample library and the initial rhythm was a beat loop played by Little Feat's late great drummer Richie Hayward...hence, Big Feat!

Story behind the song
This one, like "Sour Mash", was built entirely from the Acid Loop Libraries. It began when I found the basic drum beat (a syncopated rhythm from Little Feat's drummer Richie Hayward) in one of the libraries. I just let it play and started "painting" loops, sounds and sound effects onto the screen. I heard this again today for the first time in the 21st century. This was one I had totally forgotten about, but I got a real kick listening to it today. It's pretty bizarre, but I think it turned out pretty cool. Why "Big Feat"? Because it all began with a Little Feat drum loop.
This was hatched somewhen in the mid-90s.
