Bashir Dahrieh on SoundBetter

Hello world, I'm Bash, drummer with almost 25 years of experience. Been toured Asia for almost 5 years with musicians from all over the world and now living in Quebec, Canada, working as a session drummer for bands and artists from town and abroad.

I specialize in different styles such as prog rock, metal, country, indie, funk, fusion, etc.

I can write drums for your song or follow your suggestions.

I allow UNLIMITED revisions until you get exactly the drums you want!

All I need is an mp3 of your song and a click track if possible, if you don't have it no worries! I'll figure out the tempo!

After everything has been discussed, I will record a demo in my studio and I'll send you an mp3 file. If you’re 100% happy with the result, I will send you HQ multi-track drums in wave file.

I record using Roland V-Drums with a powerful VST Plug-In (Superior Drummer 3). I have a huge range of drum kits from metal to vintage sounds and hundreds of snares and cymbals to meet all your criteria! A ton of channels available and a lot of mix flexibility to get isolated tracks, adjust individual microphones bleed and much more!

I assure a high quality natural sound on raw drum tracks!

Let's work together!

Interview with Bashir Dahrieh

  1. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  2. A: As a versatile musician I've been inspired by many musicians: drummers like Mike Portnoy, Thomas Lang, Dennis Chambers, Simon Phillips, Dave Weckl. Artists like John Mayer, Michael Jackson, Bruno Mars, Slash, Myles Kennedy, Jeff Buckley, Dave Grohl and many others.

  3. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  4. A: You're gonna love it!

  5. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  6. A: That each project I get is a surprise to discover! That I get to do what I love which is play drums, record and be creative! That I'm super happy to always get positive feedbacks from my clients, that means I make them happy with my work and that for me is incredibly rewarding. That I get to record drums for music that's gonna be sounding somewhere in the world.

  7. Q: How would you describe your style?

  8. A: I'm a versatile drummer with inclination to progressive metal.

  9. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  10. A: Musicianship

  11. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  12. A: Each job I'm involved in I take it very seriously and my goal always is to give full potential to the song. No matter the genre. If it's a song with a steady groove, I like to make that groove as steady and solid as possible, giving always room for everything on the song to shine. If it's a song with a lot of elements to put on, I like to be as creative and musical as possible as well and I think I've achieved that on the last jobs I've completed!

  13. Q: What's your typical work process?

  14. A: When I get a song from a client before everything I just listen to it, try to get a basic drumming map for it in my mind to specify which grooves and drum kit I'll be using for that project and then I discuss any details or suggestions the client wants in terms of grooves, fills, etc. Then I get to record the drums and I send an mp3 file to the client as a first demo to listen to and to send me any feedbacks to modify, arrange or change anything that needs to be changed. I like to work on the song as much as necessary and send as many revisions as needed in order to make the client happy with the final result! When the client is satisfied with everything I prepare all the tracks to send. Normally my workflow is very fast in terms of completing jobs.
