$100 - unlimited tracks. The whole enchilada!!!! Whatever the song needs. Building loops, Sound effects,
$75 -5 tracks- 2 tracks base (usually shaker, tambourine) 3 tracks of coloring (Ex. wind chimes, cymbal swells, djembe)

    This was my first time working with David and I was really pleased with his contributions. I was looking for some percussion options that would drive a track without a typical drum kit. He produced a series of interesting & unusual tracks that I could layer & build on. Highly recommended.

    I can honestly say: I have yet to have an instrumentalist deliver with as much creativity, thought, and skill. David didn't just play percussion, he devoted some serious time and effort into writing something fantastic. That really says something about his character and passion for music.

    Dave is a total pro. He instinctively knew what my song needed and within a few days delivered layers of beautifully recorded percussion tracks. I now have great sounds and options to use on my song with a live performance feel. If you want something more interesting than a basic drum kit, you should reach out to Dave!
