    You're far from the only person/orchestrator/group putting out good percussive music, but in my book, you're definitely in the top three I've heard - and I'm a kit player who looks for this kind of stuff. Please know that this is inspirational, and I think it's a CLEAR demonstration of "hitting stuff with sticks" being much more than what most of us have grown up with.

    They gave their life to music. They ate metronomes for breakfast. They mastered blasts techniques and many other hand techniques used in many other instruments. These are hardcore scholars that build their talent.
    It's a delight from start to finish.

    This is the background music for the jungle stage of some indie sidescroller jump'n'run and the character you play as is the love child of a triangle relationship of koji kondo, john williams and marty o donnell and if you don't make your inputs perfectly within 4 frames you lose the whole game
