Versatile & Sensitive drummer. Dynamic, Energetic, Deep, gritty/edgy character. Groove & Sound & feel focussed. for $300

Hi, my name is Adriaan, aka Ria. My goal is to provide you with drums that enhance the impact of whatever your message is, be it to make people dance, cry, dream, or anything else. I love collaborating to make something that provokes goosebumps.

I believe every piece tries to communicate something. The heart of that message can be in the vocals, lyrics, ambience, arrangement, performance; you name it. When working with me, we'll find out together what it is and how I can enhance it. Some genre's I love: Hip-Hop, (Neo) Soul, Afro-Beat, Pop, Singer-Songwriter, and many more.

Gear is not the most important, but definitely makes a difference. I carefully built my setup over the years. At the heart are SSL pre-amps paired with mics that get the job done in the way I want, and the setup is versatile. I record and mix in my own studio in Diemen, near Amsterdam in the Netherlands. Check my discography to hear what's possible.
