Making big beat takes no less than six drum loop layers.
Also true about big beat: if it's worth doing it's worth overdoing.

Yesterday I as I was finishing work after a crap week, I had on SomaFM and just as I was closing up work... one of my tracks came on that I had not heard them play before, which lifted my spirits a lot. It pulled me right out of the dismal mood lingering all day.
That there remains a world where we can get human curation and human creation available to most everyone feels utopian in this day and age. It almost feels subservient, and I love that kind of civil disobedience.
If you can please help keep this utopia alive! Listen and show your support:
Thanks for the continued support
@somafm - that made my week. It feels special to contribute to your sound.

I thought after completing three songs and getting deeper into a fourth that I should share some of the sonic artifacts I've recorded along the way.
Ambient, dark electro, experimental minimalism, improvised corners of where I'm sourcing my sound library for constructing studio tracks.

Hey y'all thanks for your support and enjoyment of the music! It keeps me going. #craque
20 years ago I wrote a soundtrack to an indie film that sorta fell on its face and never went anywhere after the premiere because of some falling out between the producers.
It is funny how excited I was to "break into film scoring" after moving to LA and then that happened.
The music is still some of my favorite personal stuff, so I released it all myself:
Y'all I think that's a wrap on track 3. There was a specific syncopated feel I wanted, but needed to discover through improvisation because composing it wasn't working.
What I found surprised me more than just achieving the rhythm I wanted. An entirely new sound came out.
Wondering
a vinyl sampled,
should it soft or loud?
What groove I find?
Where grove it from?
Too far from me divine
A perfect needle drop,

I promised some Ferrous sounds! I hope it works.
This is part of a patch I'm working for the third track. Layers of some looped figures with a deep synth ground drone holding up yawning higher pitched guitar tones coming from the Ferrous and through some delay.
Got some good drones going with the tabletop guitar and Ferrous. It is definitely my kinda thing! Trying to see how I can weave it into the next album track...
