I've been in the music business for 15 years. Over the years I had a chance to play versatile genres. I played more than 700 live gigs. I played everything from big arenas to weddings and small clubs. Now, all my strengths and passion are focused on studio drumming and getting the best sound. I constantly explore new sounds, new microphone setups,

I will record drums in a professional studio and send you wav files with the perfect signal. If you wish I can mix and master the drums.

    Denis recorded some of my funky songs, his playing reminds me on Ash Soan. I like his simple grooves and the sound he is able to get is so amazing.

    Perfect sounding drummer, with Dennis I don't get overplaying and unnecessary chops but the right kind of studio playing.
