New beat walkthru time on Patreon!
Also I’ve got some drum samples for you (see Patreon post for links).
So in this video, I’m covering a song called “Slow Progress” from the recent FatGyver album.

Here I continue from where I finished in Chopping Science Episode 1.
I’m making the drumloop much more aggressive and talk about how to do it, while showing you, of course.
I got full control of all drumhits, so not stretching anything or using any “pre-made” warped sections…that’s how I’ve been rolling since the 90s with my drums. Continue reading Chopping Science episode 2
