About

Various

The Art of HiFi: Percussion features a memorable mix of music and world-class musicians. Christian Teele is best known for his work on internationally syndicated radio show E-Town. His two original compositions, Emergence and The Depth are standouts. Michael Wooten and Billy Hoke are both world-touring drummers and have been great friends for decades. Their Drum Battle is an incredibly dynamic track that they created at Octave Studios in an afternoon of collaboration. From Nico Owen’s Selva that creates a realistic jungle soundscape, Banda Guilha’s two latin samba tracks, Timpani Shorts by Mike Tetreault to an excellent demonstration of jazz drumming and even an example of percussive guitar by Alfredo Muro, Percussion takes us on a unique musical journey that is both fun to listen to and challenging for your system.
