Hey Adam! I am so excited to share this with your community because this is the first time I am being a part of something you started (except the loop pack giveaway before).I hope you like my interpretation on this track,enjoy it!

I found it very interesting to be participating in this contest. And this track is really cool.

Hey Everyone! So here is my contribution to this contest! Enjoyed jamming to the track! Enjoy!

I really enjoyed this Adam! First time micing and recording myself. Hoping for more contests in the future. Thanks!

So sick brother! I like the natural room tone you're getting; works well the vintage genre! Great groove and feel, and your fills were super tasteful! Thank you for your submission!

Disco Contest Winners!

First of all, thank you SO much to those who entered! This contest was a blast, and I genuinely loved every entry. You guys made this TOUGH.

1st Place - pyugarcia | This entry had insanely clean playing, tasteful fills, and really creative variations on a disco groove. I love how the missing backbeat gives this track a unique funk feel! There’s also some hinting of a half-time feel, which I thought was a super modern way to approach a more classic track. Awesome work my friend!

2nd Place - TobyJonesDrums | This submission was super well constructed, and I think Toby showed a lot of “intention” in his playing with this track. Very purposeful fills and straight forward grooves! My favorite thing about this entry was the use of more difficult concepts, but in a way that shows how musical they can be. (The dotted 16th Note Fill at 00:25 being a good example.) Well done Toby!

3rd Place - Dibbz | This submission was very clean, and showed good overall kit control. I like the surprise of the bell pattern at 00:54! As simple as it sounds, that kind of restraint (saving the cool part for later in the track) is an awesome trait to see in anyone’s playing! The steady quarter notes on that left foot also did not go unnoticed! ;)

Once, again, I want to stress how difficult it was for me to choose winners! I watched each submission at least 3 times, and each of you had elements in your performances that I absolutely loved. For the runners up, I’m loading your accounts with TWO Loop Packs each. You can download these tracks from the Shop Loops Page anytime, and will receive an email when they’re ready.

For the 3 winners, please email me directly at [email protected] and we’ll get your Skype Lessons scheduled! Make sure to include the Loop Packs that want, and we’ll get them loaded into your accounts. =)

Thank you!

Fiquei muito feliz e honrado em ter participado desse concurso e com todos esses bateristas fantásticos. Parabéns a todos que participaram, e Adam meus parabéns pelo concurso e pela maravilhosa discoteca didática que você criou.

Thanks so much for the opportunity guys! Hope you do more of these

I wrote an email regarding loop packs and the Skype lesson I won but not had a response yet. Did you not receive it?
