Watch in HD!!! This is a play through for the song titled 'Swoop', by the band Cascara. I had the opportunity and privilege to track drums for the self titled EP they just released.
This song was a lot of fun to track, as well as do a video for. Its by far the most difficult song to play on the EP, and there are a lot of little details I struggled with in making this video. You'll actually notice me frequently looking over to the left at the MIDI mapping/music for the drums I wrote (laptop is to my left). Either way, it was a fun release to be a part of, and I hope to make more music in the future with the band. Huge thanks to Xavier Buchanan for inviting me to play drums on the release. \m/
