When my ship comes in        A. D. A. E

When my ship comes in
I’m going to buy you a diamond ring
So dear and clear
Like a sparkle from your eyes

When my ship comes in
I’m going to buy you a convertible 
With a white rag top
To let the wind deep inside

And when you drive downtown 
And you come to a stop
Wave to the boys 
As you put up the top 
When my ship comes in 
You’ll never want again 

Cause when my ship comes in 
I’m going to buy you everything 
When my ship comes in 
I’m going to buy you everything 

When my ship comes in 
I’m going to buy you a great big house
With a rooftop pool
Swimming in stars every night

When my ship comes in 
I’m going to buy you a convertible 
With a white ragtop
To let the sun deep inside 

And when we drive downtown 
And we come to a stop 
C’mon gimmie a kiss
Before we put up the top
When my ship comes in 
You’ll never want again

Cause when my ship comes in 
I’m going to buy you everything 
When my ship comes in
I’m going to buy you everything

when my ship comes in

Ritual:

Being the opposite concept of pieces like Tabla fantasy nr.1 and 2, "Ritual" is a steady groove, mixing acoustic and electronics in order to create hybrid textures.....as mentioned, steady grooves, BUT with some surprises in order to differentiate the machine from humans :)

As usual, try to hear with head/ear-phones (effects will be much more appreciated), and all is being played in one shoot (no sequences, no multi tracks, all played in real time --> it means i can play in live situations in real time).

Hope you enjoy it !! and waiting for your ideas as well !!
Looking forward to have your musical ideas using these drum songs (my email: gserranodg@hotmail.com)

Greetings !
Gonzalo

It’s a time of the sighs and the lies on the radio
Dumbing down
It’s a sign of the times and the crimes of the bully boys
Lost in all that noise, with their dangerous toys
Shifting sands, shifting sands, camouflage guilty hands
Do the straw man, law man, flag man, bogey man
Fooling fools
Salesmen, pale men, stale mediocrities
Riding the wave of faith, nothing’s safe

Strive all your life, take the long road to understand
Knowledge base
You can search and research, learn the lessons from the history
They believe the mouth instead
The mouth in the empty head

Shifting Sands (a C÷M track)

You know, the one that Moms and Dads try to warn about. 

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
The Dans

Lyrics;
Your daddy tried to warn ya
Your momma tried to warn ya
About the who the what and why
There's information's missing
Little lady never listened
About the guy

Now you're out and on your own
And living all alone
Nobody there to talk with
Nobody you can walk with
You know you could use a friend
When the day comes to an end

Someone a little older
Offer you a shoulder
Don't be so shy
I'm that guy

Someone with the right stuff
When times are getting too rough
help you to get by
I'm the guy

I've been doing this a while
And I've got surefire style
A streetwise crocodile
With a "trust me" smile
Oh yeah, I'm that guy

Easy prey always give away their weakness with a look
And what mom and dad had warned about is 'bout get you on the hook
Oh yeah, I'm that guy

Your daddy tried to warn ya
Your momma tried to warn ya
About the who the what and why
You should watch out for that guy

I'm that guy.

That Guy

A collaboration with @mahan-mahan in which he doesn't play, at least in this version. The song though is his pick and believe it or not I never heard it before his suggestion. God am I getting old. I was shocked to see what a big hit it was and I had no idea.

OPEN SOURCE DRUMMING (OSD):
My idea is to upload grooves/drumming pieces composed and played by me, and that YOU use them to put music/voice/whatever you want on top of it. The only "condition" is that you share final result, so i can share with all of you again :)  
If you are interested in, just email me and i will send you a file with a specific track you want, so you can work accordingly (gserranodg@hotmail.com)

Try to hear with headphones 🎧, effects will be appreciated.

Since I make my economical living as Engineer, I have total freedom from drumming and musical point of view, so I’m not “married” with a unique style and I’m basically playing what I want to play: I have played mostly rock (bands with our own music), but also pop, world, kind of jazz, even classical percussion pieces (I studied classical percussion in the music conservatory in Valparaíso, Chile when I was child/11 years old). Nowadays I’m very dedicated to play/study/investigate my drumming, mixing acoustic with electronics, and once a month I upload a drumming video in my Instagram and youtube, trying to make a drumming contribution.
