I'm looking for dedicated drummers for my upcoming series of drum sample libraries for Kontakt. One product is already in production. The library is geared towards electronic music; overly clean production techniques are not welcome here.
The goal is to create a variety of sampled drumkits that are lightweight, easy to use, low-cost, and feel different from each other. I will be bringing interesting features into these products that have never been seen before. The focus will be on immediate sonic gratification rather than tweak-ability. Multiple drummers will be accepted, and the same drummer may sign on for multiple libraries.*I will direct you in mic setup and playing techniques, although your creative input will be valued (strange drum preparation is welcome). You will be encouraged not to use sterile/perfect playing techniques in some instances.
*You will receive fair compensation in the form of royalties, to be discussed on an individual basis. I will be in charge of processing samples, creating the kontakt patch, programming, and marketing, although I may allow the drummer to take on some of these jobs for more royalties.
Requirements:
*Drum set, a good recording space (anything from a tight room to large hall will be accepted), and skills.
*Recording gear
*2 to 8 or more simultaneous recording channels (depends on what you have available and the sound we are going for)
*Skype and webcam or ability to take pictures
THERE WILL BE AN AUDITION PROCESS, post an audio link (any kind of recording be it solo or within a band) to your work in THIS thread! Discuss here! (my e-mail is argitoth@gmail.com)
Thank you,
-Elan
