Tesseract - THE GREY - Jay Postones 1-Take drum performance

In this video, myself and Amos are playing along to the demo audio. The drum mix is by Peter Miles.
This song was captured quite early in the recording process. Not long after this, we added a couple more crash cymbals to the setup (and we can never REALLY have too many cymbals...)
When tracking this song for the album, we went for full takes - I played the song all the way through four or five times. Then we'd listen to each section in the control room, and comp together the most energized takes. I find this to be a really great way of working - you end up with the best of the best, and it's a relatively fast process.

Nobody makes drums sound like music quite like Jay. Hats off mate.

Jay doesn't simply plays or hits the drums, he summons them, speaks to them, chanting 😊 wow. I love this man. One of my fav drummers of the modern times 🙌🤘🤘🫶

Gaaaah I love drum playthroughs. You're a pleasure to watch. Your kit sounds phenomenal. The cymbol work, ghost notes, and the groove. Chef's kiss 👏

Absolutely incredible! One of my favorite songs off that album. In fact, it's so good that I'm watching it a second time and you can't stop me.😂

This mix is absolutely fucking huge, I LOVE how your toms sound! And being able to hear the hi-hat is a big thing to me, as a drummer. Everything has been tuned and mixed to perfection 👌

Jay, you monster! Those fluttering kick hits in the pre chorus, man. So tasty. Can’t wait to hear new sounds from Tess in the coming years.
-
Beatiful playing! Those drums sound phenomenal.

every time i hear and see these amazingly high quality playthroughs, that might be augmented by samples, but are definitely more natty than the record, i can't help but think, why can't we have drums that sound like this on records. i think it's really sad that phenomenal drummers such as jay aren't fully represented authentically on record because of this chase for consistency.
