Behind the sounds

A creative
drum cloud.

I’m Paul Grace, a drummer and producer based in the south-east of Ireland. I make loops from acoustic kits, electronic percussion and whatever catches my ear in the studio.

These are not anonymous sample-pack fragments. They’re the ideas I want to hear in a track: played, recorded and mixed to have character before you do anything to them.
