Shai Yuval on SoundBetter

Hey there! My name is Shai, I play drums, piano and produce music an I have been recording drums for many years with the obsession of finding the right sound and feel for every track. Would be happy to make music :)

I am a multi instrumentalist composer and producer. I play drums and keys in a variety of projects while also taking a part in the production and arrangement. My main projects are Swims and Friendy where I play drums, compose and produce. I also play and record for a variety of artists including Willum Maindo, Yael Copeland, Pitango, Lena Kutcher, Adi Orion, Pink Noize, Navy girl, Benjamin Furman, Khonzi, Ferro Dormer, and many others.

I work from a professional studio where I produce for artists as well as my own projects that has multiple drum sets, an array of mics and many instruments and other fun elements that make it a versatile space for creating music. I love receiving a track and having the time and space to carve out the best possible part for a song, as well as collaborating with musicians together.

My goal is to produce the best possible sound with mic placement and drum tuning, coming up with a sound that fits the MUSIC, as well as finding the right part that will elevate the music, while not taking up too much space (unless needed).

Looking forward to working with you!

    Shai absolutely delivered! He sought to understand the vision of the track and came back with a home run on the first at bat. Super nice dude, I highly recommend.

    Shai is the best recording drummer I have ever worked with.
    Very professional, patient, and extremely kind. He understood exactly what i wanted and recorded a drum part that was even better then my vision.

    Shai is not only an incredible live drummer, but an amazing studio musician too. Not only that, but he’s also an accomplished and experienced producer, and a phenomenal songwriter. I’ve been playing with him for over 11 years and have recorded endless times with him, and anyone that has ever worked with him could tell you that he’s the easiest person to work with and the consummate professional!!

    Shai recorded drums for all the songs in my album. The sound quality is really top notch. He knows his recording stuff. He always bring very original, solid, and beautiful ideas and grooves. Shai is my #1 drummer.
