dannthr Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I got to do a user demo for a new sample library called Tsaiko Drums and I wanted to do something that had the feel of a good ol' fashioned taiko drum concert as an homage to my favorite taikoist, Joji Hirota (so it's definitely ala his style): Lifestream (1:22) Any comments or crits are appreciated!

The Pezman Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 A Taiko drum group came to my school last year. It was awesome, and this was a great throwback. When will it be released and by whom? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antipode Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Very nice. I'm curious about said library. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannthr Posted September 18, 2007 Author Share Posted September 18, 2007 Heheh, sorry guys, I should have been clearer--the library is new out... it came out like... a couple of weeks ago or something. It's made by a couple of people in my Guild so I got to hear about it before hand, which is neat. http://www.tsaikodrums.com/ It's produced by a guy named Sean Beeson--I remember his name because like... last year he released a free music pack for indy game devers on gamedev.net. Personally, I love taiko drums and most taiko drum libraries are kind of lame--like they're all very THUNDEROUS for Zimmer-ish soundtracks, which is fine for some people--and Tsaiko can do that too, but I wanted something like what I always thought of as taiko music, which is you know... the more natural sounding concert style, like Joji Hirota or Pete Lockett.

John Revoredo Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Good drumming.. how did you play this? using a midi instrument (keyboard?) or pattern writting?.. I'm really liking this taiko/tsaiko thingy!.. some great stuff can be achieved adding some taiko stuff to an orchestra!.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannthr Posted September 18, 2007 Author Share Posted September 18, 2007 I used the ol' fashioned mouse/click method and lots of little tweaks here or there to tempo and quantization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked it out. Nice piece. It would be awesome to see a video of yourself programming this drumming. The samples sound nice, but the programming is top.
