It’s crazy times in the world. One of the ways I’m stay­ing sane is to spend a lit­tle more time in the drum room. Here’s a quick video from a few weeks ago, revis­it­ing some old con­cepts — name­ly, run­ning the drums through my friend Able­ton Live for on-the-fly drum effects and loop­ing. I’ve been exper­i­ment­ing with this over the years, but the biggest breakthroughs/​challenges have been cen­tered around hid­ing the lap­top and exe­cut­ing ideas organ­i­cal­ly. I am still ter­ri­ble at this but it is fun.
