Once I finished tracking drums for this song we thought it’d be cool to add a chaotic fill at the start, so I tried a bunch of different options and this is what we landed on 🤷

This song SLAPS, especially this section, which has a bunch of tricky twists and turns 🔄
Huge thank you again to and for their masterful work on the video and audio 💖
This will be the last of these drum cams on IG for now, but I'll still be uploading heaps more over on my YouTube channel!
