A permanent member of A Perfect Circle, The Vandals and Devo, Josh Freese has appeared on more than 400 recordings. 'Drumloops' is the next best thing (and more affordable) to hiring Josh for your next project. It is available as a digital download for $3.99 at this bandcamp page.

'Drumloops' is part of a full-length benefit compilation from 'The Compound, SOS: Save Our Studio - A Benefit Album', released digitally in May and featuring 49 tracks from a variety of artists. Says Josh:

"The Compound Studio has a great-sounding drum room and Anthony is a fantastic engineer. When he asked me if I would donate some drum loops to his benefit album I was happy to say yes. Long Beach needs this studio to stick around."

Earlier in 2012, debt threatened to shut down the studio, which would have been a blow to the community that it is such a vital part of. In a creative attempt to raise funds, Compound owner and chief engineer Anthony Arvizo put out a call to former clients to contribute songs. You can get a copy at bandcamp.

About The Compound Studio
Nestled in the hills above the sleepy beach town of Long Beach is the Compound Studio. Established in 2001 by chief engineer and producer Anthony Arvizu, the studio has served a mix of regional bands and national artists such as Mavis Staples, Ryan Adams, and the Coldwar Kids in its relaxed, organic recording environment.
