Two year old drummer with Thomas Lang style chops! you all should quit drums

[jazzsnob]

I'm just kidding about the Thomas Lang thing, I couldn't help it. Sorry. This has nothing to do with all that, but I'd like to show you guys a friend of mine who is a really great artist. His name is Mark Aubert, and he's a drummer, but this project he's doing right now are these really beautiful beats and soundscape compositions. He does it with drumbeat he records, programmed beats and A LOT of sampling. There are some really wonderful grooves in his music and I'm sure some folks on here might really appreciate it.

p.s. I'm sure that by reading some of the responses to the thread title we'll get some insight on who replies before reading the original post. Hope you guys like the music.

I love this, thanks for posting.

[jazzsnob]

He's putting a cd together with another guy, check out "Lord Blue," he one of Mark's friends.

Real nice stuff man. Sounds really chilled and relaxed. I love it!

Just added the guys. BTW - the thread title is pure genius.

[LarksTongue]

is your friend a 2 year old playing soundscapes? :-)

i'm interested, but i can't use myspace at work. any chance on posting this on youtube?

[kacperivo]

well jazzsnob, after reading the title of this thread i was THIS close to losing all respect to your person :P.

a good one! ;)

hell that's one fine piece of music. i love how the drums are compressed... this hihat, mmm yummy!

btw. nice way to attract attention... :)

[d.c.drummer]

Yeah you had me there, JazzSnob posting a title in caps advertising that a person who hasn't mastered speech has mastered an accented double-stroke roll. At least it wasn't "this 7 year old kid can out chop all of you!!!"

Good tunes, I'm doing my homework right now (or at least SHOULD be) and its really chill music. I like that. +2 points for advertising creativity

P.S. I was so ready to watch that vid...

Haha nice work on the title
I really like his music, sounds really laid back and easy to listen to!

[HardcoreLogo]

Hey, cool stuff! Yet again you bring something unique to the table........this also proves that speed and a million chops have little to do with creating great music! I enjoy music that conjure images and emotions.......that's what it's all about!!!

[meandhimcallitus]

Awesome music. What program does he use for samples/beats?

[jazzsnob]

Cubase I think. And he uses crazy live sampling equipment

[morphe]

Ah, some great tunes. What hi-hat is he using? Love it on Just My Imagination. By the way, you have some great music on your myspace. Mad Scientist Pop is a great tune. Are you recording for a label, or just for fun?

[tomgrosset]

Great way of getting people's attention, that's for sure. (lol)

Anyway, the music is unorthodox but I like it.
It's really cool to mess around with some really great tunes. This is a good example for knowing how to go about conducting an experiment with some great music like that.

Good stuff man.
Thanks for posting.

Whoa i can just imagine how much time has been put into these projects. He has really captured this 'old' feel to the songs, this is great, i really like it. I really love 'something tangible' the voice at the start triggered off moby for me, lol, but i really love his work.

[meandhimcallitus]

I've been listening to your friends music for the past month or so and has gotten me into Dj shadow and Cut Chemist.
Btw does he use a sample of Shakti for "My Imagination"?
One last question does he use vinyl or cd? Sorry for all the questions, just really getting into sampling...
