Hi! David here,
Drums are often the make or break aspect in getting a song to radio.
My remote drum tracks were recently heard on:
BBC Introducing - Track of the Week (Buzzkill Joy with 'Birthday Cake')
RTE 2FM Alternative with Dan Hegarty - Track of the Week, (Emeka Green with 'High Horse')
I have had 500K+ views on my drum sound videos where I'm showing how I get my sounds for the remote sessions I do.
I specialise in Polished High Impact Drums.
Drums that sound almost like samples, except they are captured totally organically, and with an energy level you can't get from programmed. I am meticulous about tuning!
Session Video Clip:

I'm currently offering a free up to 1 minute demo clip of drums on one song of your choosing.
Ping me your song and I'll send it back with a brand new live drum mix that you can compare at your leisure with what you have currently.
Good selection of high end drums/microphones. 18 Channels @48K.
You can in effect 'try before you buy' - Current turnaround on this is 48 Hours.
I've played on songs featuring Ken Stringfellow (REM) Ben Ash (Carcass) Rich Grey (Annihilator).
I used to play in dj Tigerstyles live band (ITF World Scratch Champion) I've worked with Tracie Hunter (Ian Hunter's Daughter) as well as ex Babyshambles members Peter and Jamie Perrett.
Played on a song with Greg Wells (Deftones/Adele) producing at Abbey Road Studio 2. Session at Konk Studios recently.
I regularly post clips of songs I am playing on via my instagram @davidshawdrums: (There's a playlist you can see me recording drums on various songs)
Country song I played on with a more natural drum sound: https://open.spotify.com/track/5FWXhyzrHmiFvM671VJ5ff?si=99c676decd8c47a5
If of interest ping me a message with a link to your music and the song you would like live drums on.
If you reply with your music I will always message you back.
Lot's of drums recorded at the studio for Itay Kashti (Blueroom Studios) + Spiros Maus (Maus Audio)
I am big on communication throughout the whole process so you get exactly what you want,
thanks!
David
