Recorded in Austin, sent anywhere
Send the song. Get real drums back in two weeks.
Brian tracks it in his Austin studio and sends stems that drop straight onto your timeline - two weeks standard, two revisions, and rush available if you need it sooner.
$200 a song, all in. He replies within 24 to 48 hours.
“Remote session drummer. I am available to track drums for your tunes. I work remotely from my studio in Austin Texas. Ask me how it works.”
Hear it first
Nobody should buy drums they have not heard. Pick the lane your song lives in - each one is your track before, and your track after.
Rock, prog and metal
Where he came up. Straight-ahead rock through progressive rock into heavy metal, with the double kick when the song wants it.
Good for: Riff songs, anything in odd time, anything that needs the drums to push.
Reggae and dub
The style he spent years inside. Space, weight in the right place, and a kick locked to the bass rather than fighting it.
Good for: Anything that needs to breathe. Dub, roots, and songs where less is the whole point.
Jazz fusion and funk
The busiest end of what he does. Ghost notes, hi-hat detail and a pocket that moves.
Good for: Groove records, instrumental writing, and anything where the drums are a voice rather than a floor.
Before-and-after cuts are being put together from tracks clients have agreed to share. Until they are up, the playing is all on video, unedited and in one take - which is a harder listen to fake than a mixed A/B.
Until the A/B cuts are up, the playing is all on video, unedited and in one take. Watch a full take.
“I moved on from basic rock and roll to progressive rock, like Rush ... and then from there into heavy metal ... and then from there into jazz fusion and reggae.”
If it sounds this good on a street corner
People ask under nearly every clip how the audio is that clean. It is recorded on a median next to moving traffic, in one take, with no edit. The studio takes start from there.
“Actually, that's a pretty solid recording coming off the street. Serious groove!”

How to send a song
- Send the roughA bounce or a streaming link is fine. It does not need to be tidy - a scratch guitar and a click is plenty.
- Tell him the feelOne reference track that sounds like what you want, and one sentence on what the drums should do.
- Say when you need itTwo weeks is standard. If it is tighter than that, say so and he will tell you straight away whether a rush slot is possible.
- Get it confirmedHe confirms within 24 to 48 hours. Half up front holds the date; the rest is due on approval.
Useful, if you have it
- Tempo, and whether the song is to a click
- Session sample rate
- A chart, or a programmed drum idea
- Where the sections change
- Anything you already know you do not want
- Half up front, the balance only when you approve the take. If you never approve it, you never pay the balance.

Questions
What producers ask
What do I send him?
A rough mix as an audio file or a link, the tempo if you know it, and one track that sounds like the feel you are after. If you have a chart or a programmed drum idea, send that too. If you have none of it, send the song and say what you want the drums to do.
What do I get back?
Every individual drum stem plus a stereo drum submix, as 24-bit WAV at your session's sample rate, tempo-aligned so they drop straight onto your timeline. You own 100 percent of the performance the moment you pay - no royalty, no points, and credit is requested rather than required.
How long does it take, and can I ask for changes?
Two weeks is standard, and two revisions are included. Extra revisions after that are $50 each. A revision is a change to the performance; re-recording to a different arrangement or tempo is a new song. Need it sooner? Rush delivery is available: 5 business days for an extra $300, or 3 business days for an extra $450.
What does a song cost?
$200 a song, all in - full kit, 10 microphones, stems and a comp mix, two revisions, a two-week turnaround, 50 percent deposit up front. Five songs sent together are $900. Albums, attended sessions and unusual asks are quoted after a short call.
What if he never confirms?
Full refund on Venmo. If Brian has not confirmed your time by text within 24 hours of your payment, the money comes straight back. That promise applies to every prepaid item on this site.
What happens to the details I put in the form?
They go to Brian by email so he can reply to you, and they are stored privately. They are never sold, never shared with anyone else, and never used to advertise anything to you elsewhere.
