Remote Drum Tracking & Recording Services
Professional Acoustic Drum & Percussion Tracks
Since 2014, I have provided professional remote drum recording services for artists, songwriters, producers, and bands around the world. Whether you need drums for a single song, an EP, or a full album, I can deliver high-quality acoustic drum and percussion tracks recorded specifically for your project.
I specialize in Rock, Country, Blues, and Pop, and hold a Berklee College of Music Drums Specialist Certificate, along with decades of live and studio recording experience.
Recorded at AndyLand Studios, sessions are tracked in a dedicated drum room featuring over 40 snare drums, a wide selection of cymbals, and various percussion instruments, allowing me to tailor the sound to your music.
For additional flexibility, triggered drum sample tracks can also be provided from the acoustic recordings to enhance or modify the drum sound during mixing.
Why hire a live drummer?
Real drums bring feel, dynamics, energy, and musical interaction that programmed drums often cannot replicate. Every performance is recorded specifically for your song, helping your music sound more natural, engaging, and professional.
What You'll Receive
Upon completion, you will receive:
- Stereo drum reference mix
- Up to 16 raw drum multitracks
- Up to 16 processed drum multitracks
Files can be delivered in your preferred format, sample rate, and bit depth, and are typically provided via Dropbox or another file-sharing service of your choice.
These tracks can be mixed by your engineer or imported directly into your DAW for complete control over levels, processing, and panning.
