Four live recordings for a live studio audience
Dutch drummer Kim Weemhoff recorded four songs during his Remo Sandlane Session - a recording clinic initiated by Remo and the Sandlane Recording Facilities in The Netherlands. With precision and Kim's musical vocabulaire, this evening was an excellent chapter in improvisation, creativity and even somewhat cosmic playing. Not only his grooves in different time signatures sounded incredible, also his mallets and hands pulled every sound out of the drums as if it was nothing. Kim explains all the four recordings in this channel.
Kim Weemhoff:
This track is a 'Fusionesque show-off-thingy' in the tradition of my heroes Billy Cobham, Dave Weckl, Vinnie Colaiuta and so many more. I composed most of the rhythm where the 7/4 actually has accents where you feel it as a 4/4. Until it suddenly turns around. Vijay did the samples and chords.
This recording is just like the rest of the tracks a first and one-taker. I like first takes often best because they have the right energy because your mind is not too much in the way, yet.
