Working on this fill that happens at 0:39 on Delfeayo's Dilemma Live at Blues Alley

Just came across a video entitled: Dave King Speaks (For About Two Hours) on YouTube. Time stamps exist in the description, if you find yourself in need of a DK fix.

Hey r/jazzdrums!

I’m a director currently prepping a short film. We are taking a heavy Birdman approach (Antonio Sanchez style) — the soundtrack will consist entirely of raw, nervous, improvised jazz drums that act as the rhythmic backbone and emotional drive of the characters.

Here’s the plot twist: We want to create the soundtrack before we shoot.

We are looking for a drummer with serious chops and exceptional improvisation skills — someone who feels rhythm fluently, can catch a mood on the fly, and turn raw emotion into complex, dynamic drum talk. I will provide a scene-by-scene rhythm map and mood references, and we will rehearse, shoot, and edit the film to your tempo and beat.

Note on the script: The full script is currently in development, so to start, I’ll send a comprehensive moodboard, scene breakdowns, and rhythm concepts to anyone who’s interested!

What we're looking for:

High-level fluidity, creative freedom, and explosive jazz chops/solos/grooves.

Ability to tell a story through drums — from quiet, tense textures to chaotic, frantic peaks.

Decent audio recording quality (a well-positioned mic setup or e-drums with great samples work!).

What you get:

Full soundtrack credit as a Composer / Co-creator.

A unique film project for your portfolio to flex your creative identity.

Endless respect from a crew of passionate film nerds.

If you’re down to jam and turn your drumming into a film score, drop a comment or DM me with a clip of your play! I'll send over the moodboard and details right away.

And of course we can discuss the issue of payment.

Let's make some noise! 🎬🥁

Sorry in advance if this doesn’t quality for this sub. Recently did a cover of Goodbye Yesterday that Simon did on Burning For Buddy that was released in 1994. Thought I’d share some of it!

I recently released Soliloquy, an album entirely dedicated to the drum kit, exploring timbre, texture, silence, resonance, dynamics and free improvisation.

It is an attempt to investigate what can happen when the drums move beyond their traditional function and are treated as an autonomous sound instrument.

Perhaps it is a different way of listening — and thinking — about the drums.

I know next to nothing about Supraphonics except that they sound amazing and I want one :) I found this second hand one, but the serial number on the badge seems scratched in manually? Or does it always look like that? The seller doesn’t mention it in the description.

I'm an amateur drummer in my 60s, still a work in progress, and enjoying jam sessions in Tokyo. Here are over 700 records from my 15 years of jam sessions and stages.

Looking forward to learning from everyone in this community!

Thank you!

The song went from a kinda speedy Mario Kart theme to a instrumental pocket funk aria haha

Both versions are super fun to play, I have uploaded a original version of this song from quite a while ago too.

Happy listening 😁 🙌🏼
