Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky”, from their latest record Random Access Memories, features some wonderful groove playing from bassist Nathan East and guitar legend Nile Rodgers. Compositionally speaking, the song is pretty straight-forward, revolving around a chord progression of Bm7 – D – F#m7 – E. To create interest, the song employs various textural and melodic changes for different levels of intensity, which is really apparent in East’s bass part.
