About
Swedish Producer Petter Eldh announces his new album "Projekt Drums vol. 1" which embraces his love of heavy beats, psychedelic sounds and musical collaboration. This first volume is made of six diverse tracks from some of the most exciting drummers working on the scene today: Savannah Harris, Eric Harland, Nate Wood, James Maddren, Gard Nilssen and Richard Spaven.The music is hard-hitting and mesmerising, it's full of complexity and sonority but at the heart are the drums: the beat and groove alongside a kaleidoscope of sounds and effects. The arrangements include a total of sixteen instrumental collaborators comprising Harpists, French horn and marimba players and a plethora of keyboards and unique synths. It's original and highly engaging. No single listen will do it justice!

These grooves are irresitible. If there is - as the title suggests - another volume to come, I’ll be waiting for it eagerly.

Eldh is constantly toying with each track — adding, subtracting, and reshaping every bar with shifting details, some electronic, some acoustic — functioning more like a sound sculptor than a bandleader… [his] big ears can’t be contained by any single genre, so this is as much a post-hip hop record as it is a jazz album.
