 |
|
Check out my new metal EP, with all the drum tracks using Jamstix and SSD5 samples.
https://sonicsavage.bandcamp.com/releases
Four of the five songs are older pieces from 15+ years ago that originally had mediocre drums I programmed myself on a Boss DR-770 and later a Yamaha Motif ES-6 workstation. One song, "Smash Therapy", is more recent and was composed around Jamstix for another project but ultimately finished for this EP.
My principle job for the older songs was to put proper drums on them and rerecord the rhythm guitars using the better technology I have now.
"Smash Therapy" uses Lars (not surprising since it's thrashy), "Lament of the Old Gods" uses Tony for straight-ahead power, and the others go a little proggy with Mike.
I just love the heck out of Jamstix. This is my third release using it, and I'm not sure I'd even bother anymore if I had to program the damned drums by hand. |

I very much enjoyed all five songs. Nice and tight arrangement, great mixes, lots of interesting changes and variations, especially in 'Shred Ahead'. I also like the varied lead sounds. Great guitar skills as wells, Jamstix can barely keep up 
Thanks so much for sharing!

| Thanks! It took a lot of work to get this EP where I wanted, but programming JamStix was actually the easy part. |
