    Currently I use Vic Firth American Classic Metal N Sticks. Audio was recorded with a caraoke microphone placed in front of the drumset. I learned this technique as well as my foot technique from the moldavian drummer Peza Boutnari.

    A big thank you to all my UA-cam viewers, subscribers, facebook likers and twitter followers! A couple of days ago my facebook page reached 1000 likes and my UA-cam channel got 10 000 subscribers! For this special occasion I made a video about my personal history as a drummer featuring previously unreleased video material from my pre-UA-cam era amongst many more things.
