REACH FOR THE DEAD | BOARDS OF CANADA | DRUM COVER

Time for something a bit different!!
Well, here is a drum cover of an IDM/Electronica piece from Boards Of Canada, and there´s not a single drum in sight on this one, so here I muted the programmed drum sounds (thanks to Moises.ai one can do that now), and decided to make just have a field day with it drumming wise, and interpret it like a free vechile for me to just improvise and play whatever came to mind. And I really like the contrast to improvise and play so free on top of something so programmed and "on the grid" and try to make it flow. I even put in some Flanger on the drums in there as well, mainly just as a nod to Peter Criss´ solo from Alive.
I do love quite a bit of electronic music, like Boards Of Canada, Autechre, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher and lots of others.
The drums is as always, my trusty Tama Starclassic Maple kit, and some glorious Zildjian cymbals with a new addition of a fantastic 19" K Paper Thin crash.
If anyone would like to have me play on your song, please don´t hesitate to get in touch.

Great! Been planning for the longest time to do a rendition of their track “Beware of the friendly stranger” (famously featured in Salad Fingers). But still on the “to do list” ✌🏻😂

Awesome! Cool playing and great tones, and I love the slight flanger effect (big PC fan here, too)! What are the sizes of your drums?

[@sturla75]

Thank you! Cool that you liked the flanger effect too. Peter did such an impact on me on 100 000 years solo on Alive back then. My drum kit here is a Tama Starclassic Maple. Sizes are: 10x8,12x9,13x10,14x14,16x16, 24x14 and a Tama Gladiator 5,5x14 snare drum. 22x14 Gong Drum and some Tama low pitched Octobans (the really old long ones from the late 70´s early 80´s.
