JP aka STICKZ, with 30+ yrs experience as drummer / perc player in different contexts. I play mainly acoustic and some electronic drums, percs, I do programming and complete rythm arrangements on tracks. I have mainly been involved and recorded Online since 2006, freelanced as Cubase and audio tech trainer (years ago), and expanded my tech interest thru various music domains. Music is a lifetime passion but not a carrer.
I have played many styles thru the years, from western to latin to oriental and my influences are hard to summarize yet might be heard on the tracks I've played on. I have keen interest on all that grooves, has percussions, tasty horns and keys needing vibrant and pulsating drums.
Presently collaborating with different artists, ranging from prog rock to techno, indie, latin …
I'd love to participate to your project.
