Grooves From 5 Of The World's Best Drummers


As part of the Ken Scott Collection Series, Sonic Reality has announced EpiK DrumS – A Ken Scott Collection.

It features 5 of the world's best drummers recorded by legendary producer/engineer Ken Scott. Here's all the details directly from the press release...

In EpiK DrumS, Ken recreated the drum sounds of multi-track studio sessions he recorded with David Bowie, Supertramp, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Dixie Dregs, Missing Persons, Elton John and The Beatles. Authentic classic drum sounds were achieved from using the same rare recording equipment, the same instruments, expert technical assistance from Ross Garfield "The Drum Doctor", advanced sound development by Sonic Reality and collaboration with the original drummers Bill Cobham, Terry Bozzio, Woody Woodmansey, Bob Siebenberg and Rod Morgenstein.
