Fuzzed Out
Oli suggested I took a pop at this old template of his. He also kindly supplied the necessary time and tempo changes for me to map into my DAW.
I've been a fan of Dream Theater since their very first album came out in 1989. I remember sitting with a drumming friend having my socks utterly blown off by Mike Portnoy's drumming.
Anyway, I don't have any Mike Portnoy hats in my wardrobe. There are some drummers out there who are ...

A laugh and cry for the lengthy description. Confessions of a perfectionist! Does it work?..YES! Does it reach me in emotional and intellectual levels?..yes! Are you some other drummer playing or a "wanna-be" of that drummer. Nope, it's you, and that's just fine.
A great epoch from OliVBee that you've made come back alive. +2

It was a great challenge, Oli. One I will revisit as I'd like another go at it some time. Ironically, the most-edited bit is one of the 4/4 sections!

Yep. I cocked up both sets of the china-smacking pairs and they were hard to repair. I didn't realise quite how bad it was until I sat down to mix. :(

Thanks, Oli. I would like another go at this. Compared to all my other uploads today, the drums sound flat. Now I've heard it through a fair few more times I think I'll take another pop tomorrow.
