Studio Diaries 2 - Drum Session

"We've got amazing drums ! With the drums so tight, the rest should go smoothly"

were Daniel words after the drum session. And hell, yes ! we would never dream with a drum sound like that. Just to show that life doesn't lack a sense of irony, sleep was the only thing we wouldn't get for the next weeks.

We left Colombia armed with nothing else than a good snare and a couple of cymbals. It was clear that Arturo would have to adapt to whatever we could get in Sweden. This turned out to be actually great, it opened the mind of everyone to experiment with things that we would probably never considered if we had the chance to take Arturo's drum set from Colombia. It was the first proven fact that showed us what might happen if stayed open minded all the way.

Together with the sound, the enthusiasm grew day by day as Daniel worked out cool arrangements, and came with new ideas to blend into the whole thing. The result, well you will have to judge by yourselves when the time comes, till then we have the second video of the "Studio Diaries" series.

In Arturo's words :

"We started improvising and experimenting with the drum set, we used low-endy kick and toms searching for a kind of powerful vintage and acoustic sound. During the recording Daniel evaluated every break, rhythm, sound and ensured the groove of every section, giving me the opportunity to improvise. At the end, this has been the mos incredible experience in my professional life."
