I love being in a studio, looking for the right sound and feel.
If you are looking for someone supporting your song in the studio let me know.
No Budget for studio, audio engineer and musicians ?
I can record the drum tracks at my studio.
Send me your track, all info’s about your project, some references and lets talk about what you want.
I’ll start recording the drums till I’m satisfied with the results in sound and feel.
Listen back to the recording and let me know if you like it!
As soon as your are satisfied with the drums, you’ll receive the tracks as stems.
It’s all about the song. Maybe, the most difficult part about drumming is feeling when not to play. I am gonna record the drums to fit your song the best in terms of sound, arrangement, feel and timing.
Sometimes adding some percussion to the chorus makes it flying. Sometimes there is no need for drums in the verses. It all depends on the song and your vision of it.
Send me your song and let’s check out what you have in mind.
Request an estimate of costs and provide me all information you can give about your project such as scratch/guide tracks, reference songs with notes (what you like and what you don’t like) and technical information such as sample and bitrate.
I am working through all information provided and send you a proposal of the services you have asked for and I can offer you.
After you have paid a deposit, we can book your project into my calendar.
Alright, now it’s on me to fall in to your project and find the best possible drums for it. Once I am satisfied with the results, I’ll sent you a mixdown of your song including roughly mixed drums.
Take your time to go through the mixdown. Let me know if there are any revisions you’d like to make.
Once you are happy with the all drums and percussion I’ve provided, I’ll ask you to pay the remaining balance.
The journey has come to an end. As soon as I received your payment, I’ll sent you the link to the uploaded drum tracks.

We can record individual passages or exercises from the lesson to analyze your playing.
Knowing your instrument is important. I'll show you how to tune your drums and adjust them properly.
