    They could use this same groove in Probly the next list of top 40 hits on the radio. Lol. Sounds like every pop song/modern country groove. Can tell he is a studio guy. Big snare and kick hits. Precise accuracy. Lighter cymbal playing. Sick playing

    Now that's how you lay a solid FAT BEAT, the meatloaf is what I call it. Being in a traditional death metal band I've learned that it's not about the technicality but about how you make ppl feel and move and sprinkle bits of that technicality like your doing here!!!! Love the fat sound on your drums! Thanx for this!

      @@therealjonsmith1 It's a great ride--I've had my ears and eyes on one of those and this confirms that I need one.
      In terms of things to seeing/hearing you talk about:
      1.) your gear sounds great; I'd love to have a quick tour of the setup and maybe an expansion on tuning, drum sounds, etc.
      2.) maybe some copyright issues here, but I'd love to hear you discuss your process for drum part creation, from hearing the tunes without drums and then do a walk-through of how you come up with parts, how long it takes, etc., give someone a "day in the life" of a tracking a tune by someone who does this all this time.
      Thanks and I'll be watching!

      @therealjonsmith1  3 года назад +9

      Hey Clint. Yeah, I get asked to play a ton of different vibes at a set tempo or tempos for particular clients sometimes. They comp and edit for anything they need. It’s maddening, and I run out of ideas, but this is the gig haha.
      I have so many tempos I’ve done this with. I can see how it may seem boring to watch / listen to but it’s the reality of being a session musician at times.
      What are you working on btw?
