I got tired of different drum sounds so you buy different effects for more manipulation.

Drums just always sounded like the most fun part of that good music for me.

I feel like being into the beat of your own drum has become too prominent in the culture.

Anytime I switch to another instrument, I immediately turn it into another kind of drum so that I can understand it better.

Well I had a musical background, but I still didn't know a lot about drums at the time.

I love drums and still play frequently.

I like to combine the dramatic emotional warmth of strings with the grooves and body business of drums and bass.

I like to be one of those drummers who actually add to the music, not one of those guys who sit in a room 24/7 trying to outwit or outplay another drummer.

Creating sounds together with other musicians is something I've always liked doing.
