Oooo this is really cool. I love those earthquakes pedals, I only have The Hoof for some doom metal stuff but it's really cool to hear the way you're using the Aftermath. The drums sound massive.

This covers a lot of ground in a short time.  The transitions between the parts feel smooth to me even as things become completely different.  There are a lot of great sounds in here to wrap my head around, both in the drums and the accompanying synths.  I'll have to listen again to let it all soak in.

Another very interesting track. Fun panned delay on the all drum kit? The "string" synths at 45 secs are very cool, like CosmicCairns mention, transitions are nice.

Question for you, what kind of ride do you have? It sounds great, I love the "low end" on it (1m20). 

(When I ask about the ride, I am asking about the ride cymbal, I don't care that much about if you ride a bicycle or a porsche...)

Great as usual. Are those your vocals in the last part or a rad patch? Doesnt matter-- well done

Yo Thanks VLoom. I'm actually planning to try out the Hoof for this weeks explorations. I'd love to hear any jams you've made with the Hoof! If you have any tips / tricks or if you wanna send me your favorite tone settings, i'll try them out on drums smile

Thanks Cosmic. I think the transitions are my favorite part. They totally weren't intended to be smashed together, but it was a fun experiment forcing them together and then trying to be semi creative about it.

Yo djippy. Happy Monday.

Yeah I plopped some pingpong delay on the drum bus for one of the sections. I love ping pong delay!

Also, I ride around on an old power wheel smile and play an old Sabian Muse ride cymbal. What cymbals are you using atm?

That's the prophet!

I have a few now, my usual setup at the rehearsal local:
- 22" thin sabian sr2 ride
- 17" aax concept crash
- 20" xs20 ride
- 14" fusion hats

Home:
- 15" Zildjian A New beat hats
- 20" AAX ride...

Huge organic drum sound! That feels great! I especially like the middle eastern vibes at the beginning of the track.

Late to the party, but this is awesome. Great mash of different styles.
