The 1970s was such a seminal, transformative decade for drum recording that we couldn't possibly cover everything we wanted to in our previous episode—which focused on "Fame" by David Bowie and "Black Dog" by Led Zeppelin. So, welcome to part two.
This second installment focuses on the style of latter half of the 1970s, drilling down into two songs in particular: "Breathe" by Pink Floyd from their iconic The Dark Side of the Moon record and "Sir Duke" from Stevie Wonder's Songs in the Key of Life.
Before we begin, a small disclaimer. While Pink Floyd's "Breathe" was recorded earlier in the decade (1973), it was ahead of its time and displayed a lot of sensibilities that more closely resemble drum sounds from the later 1970s.
Check out the full video above to see how Noam and Jessica recreated those sounds in the studio today. If you like what you hear, you can also download a free sample pack of the drum sounds Noam and Jessica created here, or by clicking the listing card above.
