I will record psychedelic drums for your track tame impala eqsue
About this gig
I am heavily inspired by the drum sounds of the 1960s and artists such as The Beatles, Cream, Pink Floyd, and Todd Rundgren. I am also heavily inspired by modern artists including Tame Impala, Pond, and Melody's Echo Chamber, and I have spent years trying to achieve the crunchy, lo-fi, punchy, blown-out drum sounds of Innerspeaker and Lonerism.
To achieve this sound, I will record using vintage drums including:
- 1960s Ludwig Superclassic Drum Kit
- 1960s Supraphonic Snare
- 1960s Zildjian/Paiste Cymbals
As well as recording equipment, techniques and microphone placements including:
- AKG D190
- Shure SM57/8
- RODE K2
- DBX 165A Comp/Lim
I will record in an acoustically treated yet vibey room to deliver you a clean recording without problematic room nodes, whilst still retaining character, delivering the best of both worlds.
All packages include some degree of recording engineering (careful mic placement, input EQ, preamp choice/colouration, phase). If you opt for the premium package, I will layer with samples to deliver you drums with the most punch and impact.
For common questions, please refer to FAQs. If you have any other questions or special requests, please feel free to contact me!

FAQ
Can you transcribe/record an existing drum part?
Sure thing! If this is the case, please send over the part prior to confirming order. If you have a MIDI file, this would also be great.
Can you tune drums/modify recording techniques for my track?
Yep! If you have any special requests (e.g. tea towel on toms, concert toms, specific mic placement) please let me know in your order details.
Can you record a performance video for your order?
Yeah! This is an option in the optional extras section for $30.
Can you record/produce other elements for my track?
Yep! I play guitar, bass, and keys, as well as drums, and I am a professional music producer/engineer so if you have any other instrumental/production requests, please do ask and we can get something organised!
What samples will you layer with?
I have a number of samples that I have created myself, but I also use purchased sample packs, electronic drum machine samples, as well as samples from Superior Drummer 3.

They are incredibly gifted at drumming, definitely fit the unusual project idea I had really well, did extra takes, and even fixed a few things. Great communication too. Loved it, will hopefully work with them again.
