Thanks.
I´ve just purchased all the pack (video, audio, pdf chart...)

(It´s an Oz Noy tune)

This time the video angle is from the hi-hat, excellent point of view....

Hey guys - we just put this up.

I like the video angle, too. Hoping Dave will have time to release a few more songs. Some very cool ideas for songs have been discussed...very cool ideas. If you have an idea, let me know!

Enjoy.

Wow. That's a big overlook. Didn't realize a drum angle video was included! Sweet.

Hi Steve O.

Are you there in the recording sessions with Dave, or it´s just him, sending the files to you later ?

Tell us a little about the process of recording and uploading the video/audio to the web, or whatever detail you want to add...

Thanks.

Hey Juan...

Depending on the tune, some, all or none of the musicians are with Dave when these tracks are recorded. In this case, I believe the tracks were exchanged through an FTP that we set up on Dave's site - the same way he does it for his clients.

I'm based in Cleveland, so I was not there for this or the other tracks. But I have been there when Dave is working on other projects. It's very fun to watch.

For example, when Dave was mixing the Multiplicity album, I sat at the console and Dave played me examples of various songs with and without the "Subkick." He wanted my opinion about how the extra low-end was affecting the songs; helping, or just a drummer's indulgance! I told him to keep it! Not sure how he worked it out.

Dave has another cool song on the shelf: a Stevie Wonder tune recorded with singer Chrissi Poland. It's VERY cool and groovy. Hoping that comes out soon. We also have other ideas for songs. Dave stays so busy, it's hard to set aside time for these little projects. But...Dave is interesting in pursuing one-off songs with artists he always wanted to play with. Some great ideas out there...I'm hoping to help push that along.

Anyway - some of the basics of how it works. Feel free to ask more questions if you like.

Yes. Love this tune...Just Groove Me.

I have an great quality boot with VINNIE COLAIUTA playing live w/ Oz
in L.A.
They played it a bit brighter, and VINNIE'S SOLO....wow....soooooooo
many ideas coming out of VINNIE. Very funky solo also...Vinnie,
along with Jimmy Johnson were 'reading' this stuff down.

Great 2 set boot of that trio....One of my favorites with Vinnie.
