Chris Castellitto on SoundBetter

Professional Online Session Drummer with 15+ years experience recording drums for award winning producers, movies, TV commercials, singer-songwriters and bands.

Over the past 15 years I have been lucky enough to record and program drums for a variety of projects with companies such as McDonald's, BBC, Bosch, Aldi and many more. I worked with UK producer Swindle in collaboration with artists such as Joel Culpepper, Nubya Garcia and Snarky Puppy. My drumming can also be heard on award winning movies and on hundreds of independent artists' projects.

My number one goal here is to make sure your music sound as good (if not better) than what you have envisioned. To do that I also offer complete assistance and support once a project is started. My service is reliable and with the fastest turn-around you will find here. In fact, you will receive a first take in less than 24hrs from the time we have agreed on price.

I record and program drums in my studio in West London, UK. Here I have accumulated enough gear to offer amazing drum sounds ready for you to use on your music. From Gretsch Drums, to Coles microphones and Neve pre amps I offer only the best quality drums until you are 100% happy with the final result.

If you'd like to know more about me, what I do and how my drums sound, please check out these links below:

For any questions about your musical projects get in touch. Looking forward to work on your music soon :)

    Cristiano was great! Any drum changes or suggestions I had were recorded exactly how I imagined, and very quickly too. The recordings themselves were professional and I would definitely recommend Cristiano on your next project.

    Talented drummer and a room sound that required very little mixing.

    Working with Cristiano was incredibly easy. I sent him my track and he sent back a completed drum track on the exact day that he said he would. I asked for 1 revision and that was done immediately and is exactly what I wanted.

    I would highly recommend working with Cristiano. He is a true professional and a drummer with chops & good taste.
