Studio Work

"As a drummer and keyboardist, my studio work is a constant exploration of sound and rhythm. I find immense satisfaction in crafting intricate drum patterns and lush textures, layering them to create dynamic and immersive soundscapes. Whether I'm programming beats or recording live sessions, I strive to capture the energy and emotion of each performance, transforming raw ideas into fully realized musical compositions."

Equipment:

  • Drums: From Vintage to Modern Drums in different sizes. Snares in Wood & Brass.

  • Cymbals: +30 cymbals in all sizes from dark/warm to bright sounding

  • Percussion: From Shakers, tambourines, to traditional Portuguese instruments.

  • Recording: Apollo x8p & Audient ASP880, high-end preamps & plugins. Well familiar with Logic Pro

  • Microphones: AKG C414 XLII Pair , UAD Sphere DLX, Shure SM 7B, Shure SM57, Shure Beta 56 A, Shure Beta 52 A, Subkick

    (including other large & small condenser mics )

"With a synthesizer at my fingertips, I feel like a sonic sculptor. I spend hours tweaking parameters and layering sounds to create intricate textures and evolving atmospheres. The process is incredibly liberating, as there are no rules or limitations. I'm free to explore my creativity and experiment with different genres and styles. It's a truly inspiring experience."
