Nate posted this piece on his wall last night and I wanted to add drums for shiggles. Here is the result. Enjoy: Nathan Matthew David – Forever by andyTHPS

I was hooked on this tune the moment I heard it in Little Big Planet last year, and instantly thought of it when thinking of what I wanted to go underneath the voice over in the OSD video I put out yesterday, but didn’t want the video to get yanked down for using another artist’s […]

I took a few hours to put a site together entirely dedicated to advertising myself as an Amazing. I advertised on Facebook for just 1 day last week, and got quite a few inquiries, and have been steadily busy ever since. This will be the first time I’d actually make money from playing drums alone. […]

Every time I hear an iPhone ring, or just about any music that doesn’t have drums, I’m always thinking of what I would put under it as a backing track. I guess that’s what happens to your melon after being a drummer for a while. I put this together a few weeks back by hand, […]

I went home to visit the folks for my brother’s engagement party last month and finally got my dad to sit down and get some of his recordings from the past 40 years into the digital life. He was the singer in a kick ass band in high school called “Deep Brass” full with a […]

    I get a ton of questions from comments and e-mails about my rig and what I’m using to track with all this gear and it’s actually a fairly simple setup. Leave any questions or comments in the comment section below. Thanks!   Roland SPD-30 Octapad Toontrack’s Superior 2.0 Mbox 2 (any MIDI input […]

It’s pretty unbelievable that a random dude on the news expressed his mind about the current situation happened to blow up all over the internet overnight. Not only does the original video have 26 million hits (to date), the “Auto tune the news guys” (aka “The Gregory Brothers“), took some initiative and pieced the audio […]

I. Love. Mario. Music. Though there’s nothing I loathe more than seeing some guy cover the Super Mario Bros. 1-1 theme song though. Seriously, how many people have covered that, and in how many different ways? I even remember seeing a video of a group of guys who set up a hefty amount of bottles […]

Slappin’ da bass, mon. This one is a really comfortable BPM for me to add in tons of little flairs and fills. Really digging the riffs in this one too, Brian is a pretty sick guitar player. I actually worked with Brian Effinger at Neversoft for a couple years, and he’s a really cool dude. […]

Another great piece by Nathan Matthew David. I really enjoyed working on this one. Lots of room for fills and energy. Definitely don’t want to get too crazy and drown out the mood. This was one of those tracks where there were so many possibilities and such a great piece, that it was hard to […]
