My tracks are focused on delivering excellent performance in terms of groove, feel, dynamics, and energy. I always strive to serve the writer's vision and enhance the song without creating distractions. My main focus is on modern Country Rock/Pop and Singer-Songwriter productions.
With nearly two decades of experience as a drummer in the music industry, I have had the privilege of performing alongside world-renowned artists. From sharing the stage with global superstar Anastacia and talented country acts from Nashville to European stars such as Andreas Gabalier, Howard Carpendale, and Mark Keller, my journey has been filled with remarkable collaborations. I was also honored to join Rea Garvey on tour as a support act, performing alongside an emerging talent in Germany's modern Country Pop/Rock scene.
At my state-of-the-art remote studio in Munich, I offer top-notch live drum track services using DW drums and Meinl cymbals of various series and sizes, as well as high-quality recording equipment. The space is designed to capture the intersection of a drum kit and a song, and I can record up to 20 channels with a wide range of sounds, from dirty and greasy to tight and crisp, with a focus on achieving a buttery smooth and punchy sound. Whether you need drum tracks for a single, full album, ambient sounds, or overdubs, I can provide the sound you're looking for.
I have had the opportunity to tour Europe with trailblazing artists, while also lending my talents to various sessions in big studios and my own recording space.

Interview with Tom Ganter
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: I am deeply inspired by the masterful grooves of drumming greats such as Phil Collins, Steve Gadd, and Steve Jordan. I strive to achieve the ultimate sound for a given song by utilizing a vast array of drums, percussion, and unconventional sounds, and incorporating the use of guitar pedals to create a truly unique and captivating soundscape. My tracks are crafted with precision and care, always striving to deliver the perfect part that will serve to enhance the song while never detracting from its overall vision. My ultimate goal as a musician is to serve the writer's vision and bring their songs to life with emphasis on groove, feel, texture, energy, and attitude.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Interacting with musicians and composers from all over the word. That, and playing drums all day :)
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: My tracks focus on delivering the best performance of the perfect part for your song with emphasis on groove, feel, texture, energy, and attitude. My goal is to serve the writer's vision by enhancing the song without ever distracting from it.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I usually follow a three-step process to ensure that you receive top quality custom drum tracks. Firstly, I require the track minus drums and a demo drum track if available. However, if you have any drum chart or sheet music, it would be greatly appreciated but not necessary. Secondly, I record in high-quality and work closely with you during the recording process to ensure that the song and drum concepts meet your expectations. Lastly, I will provide you with a download link containing all final recorded drum tracks. You can import them into your project in your DAW or forward the files straight to your producer or mixing/mastering engineer.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: As anyone familiar with studio work knows, having the right tools is essential to achieving the desired results. Visit my website to discover the hybrid equipment I use to create professionally polished, rich drum recordings for your projects.
