about

This track is from my first solo CD : elac drumming (A-Shams 9045). For this CD I used an acoustic snare drum, bass drum and hi-hat. The bass drum was mounted on a stand so I could play it with my hands. That way I had my feet free to use my electronic pedals. I'm not absolutely sure anymore what exactly my electronic set-up consisted of because I changed it all the time. But mainly it must have been a Boss module with footcontroller, a Zoom bass foot module, a cheap Lexicon module, a small mixing table and a noisegate. The mikes I used were a D112 for the kick, a Shure 57 for the snare drum and a K&K hi-hat microphone. I played the drums mainly with my bare hands,brushes and/or mallet sticks. I frequently used a bow on the hi-hat cymbals. Often I used one hand on the drums and turned knobs with my other hand, like on this track where I turned the knob of the Boss module and started playing with the effect where I happened to stop. I had modified the effects and assigned parameters to the foot pedals but this way I kept it fresh and never knew what exactly to expect.
