Created by Joshua Meltzer: "Here is a large collection of percussion instruments I have lying around. I recorded a lot of traditional drums from various parts of the world, often in a very untraditional way. I used snares on Djembes from Senegal, I ran an Udu from Morocco through an Eventide H3000, Talking drums with filters, shakers, kalimba (played on a snare drum) Frame drum, a Balinese Gong, a Bamboo Balafon and tons of random noise makers. I even sampled a dumpster that’s outside my house now. That may warrant its own instrument! Till then, get your groove on!"

For this track I used only two libraries I created, "Percussion Palette" and "Upright Bass Drum". I sampled an old upright bass and used it as a drum set. I used a pedal, mallets, brushes, snares etc. For the percussion library I used drums from around the world including a djembe from Mali, a Gong from Bali, Balafon from Ghana,and Udu from Morocco and many other sources. I even used a Dumpster!

These tracks were created as part of the Pianobook project.

Curated by one of the founders of SPITFIRE AUDIO, Pianobook is a collective sample project that aims to bring together a community of likeminded music makers to talk about their stories through the pianos they use, admire and are inspired by.
