Ashley Maccabee - Rebirth of Damnation Theme (Extended Studio Version)
You might know that I'm a total DOOM nerd, and over the past couple years I have released two collections of maps for DOOM 2. The collection of maps (known as a WAD) is called Rebirth Of Damnation, for which I created an original soundtrack (OST). The title theme song I originally released was only two main parts. I had recorded guitars and programmed drums for that. This extended version is a completed song with real drums! No samples/triggers. This will be a part of my next Diffractions album release as an instrumental track. If you're interested in downloading the Mp3 for this song and/or the map packs, just search Rebirth of Damnation on www.Moddb.com and click on the Files tab. Enjoy!

Ashley Maccabee - Primus - Sgt. Baker
Переглядів 4912 місяці тому
Lots of buzz about the open Drummer position for Primus, so in honour of the great Tim Alexander (one of my biggest drum influences growing up), I thought I'd have some fun and do a playthrough of what is probably my favorite Primus tune, Sgt. Baker! I definitely did my own thing with it, while trying to stay fairly true to the main themes of the original. It was a bit of a challenge playing st...

Переглядів 1 тис.Рік тому
Here are three solos from the Offensive Medusa tour, in October 2023. All were improvised and quite different, the one at Fish Head was my personal favorite. I always have a lot of fun playing drum solos! Credit to Dani Yelli for the first and third of these, Chris Coleman-bey and Krystal Shannon for the second.
Ashley Maccabee - Diffractions - Spate
Переглядів 97Рік тому
Hey guys! Here's the second of two tracks I recorded back in 2019 and released earlier this year as a demo for my solo project, Diffractions. This song is significantly less technical than most I've written, but sure is fun to play! Enjoy!
Ashley Maccabee - Diffractions - The Crown
Переглядів 146Рік тому
Here's the studio performance of "The Crown", which is part of a two-song demo just released on bandcamp for my solo project, Diffractions. The guitars and drums were originally recorded between 2018 and 2019 with the intention of being used for a different project (which is why this video is so old). However, that didn't pan out, so here they are finally, 4 years later! You can pick up the son...

Переглядів 645Рік тому
Hey everyone! Hope you enjoy this cover of the song Burden In My Hand written by the late great Chris Cornell. I could never match his incredible voice, but this song is one of my favorite tunes ever so I just wanted to try performing it. Many thanks to Logan Abernethy for the excellent acoustic and electric guitar performances! Ashley Maccabee - vocals, drums, bass, production, mixing, masteri...
Ashley Maccabee - Luminosity - 'Starlust'
Переглядів 251Рік тому
This is the studio take I used for the Luminosity song 'Starlust'. It was actually just a test take in which I performed the whole song straight through. I'm glad I took a video of it just in case, because I really liked the take and decided to use it. I would have used my normal camera setup, but again, this was a test take which I ultimately decided to use. So, sorry the china is out of frame...

They want to strap you down And cut the madness out Obedient minds Are what they need for the conquest ...
Ashley Maccabee - Fear Factory - Slave Labor drum cover, one take, no triggers or samples, no edits.
Переглядів 5 тис.2 роки тому
I've wanted to cover this song for a really long time, so here it is! I had to train a good bit for the foot patterns I decided to use here. I did this one take with no studio tricks, just a basic drum mix. No samples, triggers, or edits. Sadly my phone was bouncing around from the kick drum so it went out of focus a lot, but at least the audio is groovy. Enjoy!

Here's the full drum take of Coerced Coexistence which my friend Alden Bradstock asked me to jump in on a cover for. It turned out great! We tried to stay close to the original while also adding our own style and take on the parts. Enjoy!

Those toms and snare sound heavy as hell and awesome!! Nice playing buddy you nailed it!! Great video!! You’ve earned a sub and a like from me!! I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on my latest drum cover!! Cheers and Happy 2025!!
10/10 Would Doom again.
Wow, twelve years ago. Damn.
Awesome playing man 🥁✊
Dang, that was sick! I love the super fast drum rolls. Please help Xan increase his single stroke. hehe. Shifting gears: DOOM brings back a flood of memories. Back in the 90's I was a network administrator and I pieced a network of four (extra) PCs together at my office and my friends would come over after work and we would Deathmatch until the wee hours. I love John Carmack and started out on Wolfenstein 3D. Later, when Quake came out, I was completely blown away. ID Software paved the way for 1st person shooters. Anyway, great job. Keep up the excellent work!
@@VaughnRipley thank you! I will definitely help Xan get his speed up! Also that's so cool. I grew up with those classic shooters, I had the shareware of Doom on a floppy and played that first episode too many times lol. I like the modern Doom games but classic doom is where it's at for me. So much so I learned how to build WAD files and make the classic style doom maps I'm talking about in the description. Doom is the most modded game of all time, it's such an interesting subject!
Of the covers I've seen I think I like this one the most. The groove is tight and everything sounds very full.
Nice work and very strong song choice
Sick
Well... I'm gonna have to stop calling myself a good drummer now. Holy shite dood. That was sick. Gimmie some more.
Good job man! I like it. :)
Degree of difficulty a solid 10. Perfect!!
hey ashley my bro, i am a new sub for ya here and i am a oldschool 80's drummer and i def. wanna talk more , i love talking gear/drums/bands n music , i only have email though here , thanks n we'll talk soon bro > tom !
Great job. You should submit for the audition process.
A most worthy offering. The God's are pleased with your sacrificial benefice.
Fantastic! Love what you did there!
❤🎉 This emerged unexpectedly on you grandmom's bithday, September 18. You both sound so good!!
YES
That was great, man. I love this song, especially in the beginning when the keyboard comes in.
Sounds great surprised you’re playing straight heel up. What technique do you use for those gallops?
CLEAN.
amazing
Thanks homie!
Oh my god, the originality, that literally is a masterpiece, a tour deforce. It really is orchestral...what a blending of percussion, guitar, keyboard...Michael, I lack the vocabulary to be specific but I can say you are an acrobat on guitar and keyboard nust as you, Ash, are on the drums. The harmonies!!! And Michael, your singing!!! Now, you have a very musical voice and whatever you call the other voice , it seemed perfect and it sounded to me, slightly different from the previous song I heard. Is it possible it was more musical? And Ash, the percussion, wowowow. Perfect. The rhythm seemed to flow...It's 2:27 am and I'm going to see if I can sleep, but I'll be back. Going to post this on FB.
Fantastic!!! You shred drums!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Thank you! And thanks for checking it out!
Oh, the music just arrived since Luminosity is on notifications. Can't wait to hear it later!!!!🎉❤
Tonight!! The lyrics, perfect.
Yo what's up man!! Its Mike from REC. Sounds sick dude! What kind of cymbals you rocking? Look Meinl but I know other brands are going for that look now too.
Ayy man! Yes they are the custom black meinls
Where can I get the notes?🙈
Dude, impressive!! You kilt it!👍👍👍
Awesome, dude! You did a great job! Cheers from Brasil! 🤖🤘🏻
Siiiiiiiiiick. Btw....your guitar player has the same forearm tat that I do.
KILLER!
Awesome! Each of them look like tons of fun! I love how the crowd gets into it. Keep getting it!
Yessir will do! Thank you!
Ashley this is Sean Hillis btw... the Michael Jackson picture and profile is my sons... he's a fucking Michael Jackson dancing machine. Lol... hope all is well.
Kick ass song fellas... Ashley well done as always.
