about

The 6th & final installment from ROBERT WALTER's digital-45 series BETTER FEATHERS.

"'Hellhound' is influenced by the otherworldly sounds of archaic blues and electric-era Miles Davis. I wanted it to feel eerie and visceral, like an exorcism. I deliberately avoided traditional drum parts in favor of distorted stomps and claps. Instead of crash cymbals, I used bangs on an old spring reverb. The melody was improvised in one take."

"'Loomis' is named after Donald Pleasance's character from the movie 'Halloween.' The chords are played on a library sample from an early synth called the Novachord, which was manufactured by Hammond in the 1940s."
