really nice,, listening to this in headphones i can almost feel/see the bending/vibrating of the drum skin,, your recordings are very rich it's kind of neat because on one hand,, one might think it's just a simple drum,, but as i listen i always hear so many sound textures/timbre from the way different parts of you hands touch/hit to the different parts of the drum being hit , it's a very rich experience, and that's not even mentioning the wonderful rhythms you show us,,,drums are a very sensual sound,,, very nicely done,,i always look forward to hearing from you Richard

How do you get these things to sing? Great melodic strands in these here (hot) beats.
