Jim King - Sonic Dropper

Something About Me? I don't even know me.

About Me

I played drums in various bands, recorded with them, recordings sucked, I decided I could do it better, spent some money on equipment etc...., sucked at first ......I read and learned everything I could...still sort of sucked ....my band worked with a good producer and I learned lots more.....spent a whole lot more money....getting better...wait.....more suck...still more money...I'm a perfectionist and I'm never happy (Working on that issue).9 years latter and I may be on to something. Well at least I really enjoy doing this.

Sounds Like: Where appropriate I like to make it sound: Punchy drums with bad ass guitars and a clear vocal. Of course I like lush, thick, intricate things to. I really enjoy experimenting with guitar sounds. Being a drummer myself I have the skills to tune the drums and work with the drummer to get a performance that is right for the song and sounds great.
