MODERN LIVE DRUM TRACKS | SONG-FIRST for $97

Looking for live drums that feel natural, musical and truly connected to your song?

I record live acoustic drums for indie, soul, songwriter, country, pop and rock productions, always focusing on groove, dynamics and serving the music first.

My sound is warm, organic and modern — inspired by vintage textures, natural drum tones and productions that still feel alive and human. Whether your track needs something intimate and spacious or more energetic and driving, my goal is always to find the right feel for the song rather than overplay.

Everything is recorded in my professionally treated studio using high-end microphones, Antelope Audio conversion and SSL-based analog/digital recording equipment.
