• Hannes writes and works out drum lines with you.
• He records the drums in his own studio.
• Hannes will re-record and edit drum parts until YOU are 100% satisfied.
• Finally he delivers the individual drum tracks for each channel recorded.
• If needed Hannes can also deliver a fully produced stereo mix of the drums, or mixed stems of individual drum sections.
• He’s gonna store the files on his hard-drive for a later access

The standart rate is 300 € for one song, which includes writing, recording, editing, uploading and file storage – stereo mixes of the drums can be provided on request. This price also includes studio time, engineering and editing. If you consider that usually just renting a decent external recording studio alone will probably cost you 300 bucks per day, Hannes’ rate isn’t so high after all – because besides renting the recording studio you also hire a highly renowned professional drummer. So what are you waiting for? Just drop him a message and see if he’s available for you!
