Rock drum heavyweights Matt Cameron, Dale Drover and Clem Burke all appear on a newly released track from Melvins collaborator Toshi Kasai
“I was listening to a soundcheck take I recorded with Dale on DAT,” Kasai says of the origins of the project in a new teaser video that shows his studio setup with its many synths and pedals. ” I thought the drums themselves [were] singing and I was wondering if I could trigger some other instruments by the individual hit of the drum take and put some notes over it. Around the same time, I was really getting into analog synthesizers.
He explains how he tried sending the drum audio through a vintage synth before finding a Moog that was better suited to the task.“Plan D is a musical demonstration built for dimension, duration and dynamics,” Kasai says in a press release. “My long-time desire became real and it’s even better than I planned because of the support from talented, experienced drummers. The unique and individual styles of drumming each tell a different story. It became an experimental, conceptual project.
“Toshi Kasai understands us drummers,” Matt Cameron says of the project in the release. “This amazing collection of drum vignettes is a perfect example of how Toshi hears the music in our rhythmic patterns. I am not sure how he did it, something including MIDI I presume, but none of that matters, Plan D stands on its own as a completely new musical entity and I’m super proud to be a part of it.”
Other renowned drummers will be featured on future volumes in the EP series. In a whiteboard shown in the studio video, we see names such as C. Smith, G. Bissonette and M. Chamberlain, suggesting that we may hear contributions from the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Chad Smith, live and studio veteran Gregg Bissonette and Matt Chamberlain, who has worked with everyone from A Perfect Circle to Bruce Springsteen.
