DRUM! Interactive Struts New Orleans with Stanton Moore; Checks Out
Famous Mitch Mitchell Licks And Profiles Four Cowboy Drummers, Who Kick
Up The Best Country Grooves
San Jose, Calif., -- Enter Music Publishing, publishers of diverse,
hip drum/percussion magazine worldwide, has made available its January
2008 Issue of DRUM! In its interactive edition at www.drumdigital.com.
The January Issue features the second-line strut of New Orleans
drummer, Stanton Moore, hot licks of Mitch Mitchell and four emerging
Cowboy drummers, Myron Howell of Jake Owen's band; Tommy Bales of
Flynnville Train, Steve Sinatra of Halfway to Hazard, and Jared Pope of
Whiskey Falls.
Stanton Moore could be, as the old adage goes, the hardest-working
drummer in the industry these days. As DRUM! Interactive thoroughly
investigates, Moore has a rare ability to make virtually any kind of
groove "strut." He has a strong command of the traditional New Orleans
style and can acclimate it to any style, from the steady grooves that
propel Galactic to his solo albums where he swings poetic. As he says
succintly, "Music is a conversation.It just is"
Moving the meter back in time in "Hot Licks," Mitch Mitchell, like
Moore, has that rare ability to fuse virtually any kind of drum style
and make it swing. Perhaps the first drummer to play jazz style in a
rock context, DRUM! Interactive focuses on some of his trademark tracks
with Hendrix, such as "Voodoo Chile" and "Fire". Writer, Brad
Schlueter, notes that Mitchell's contributions were essential to the
drum vocabulary. Indeed.
"This issue of DRUM! Interactive may be our most diverse to date,"
said Phil Hood, publisher of Enter Music Publishing. "While we always
try to provide editorial for drummers of all styles, I think we've
really accomplished that in this issue. Of course, there's one factor
that unites all of these drummers: they have a true command of their
respective style."
Additional features in this issue include: "Experiment In
Extemporization," which describes how an impromptu jazz session led by
studio star Luis Conte became his latest greatest. And several others
that are really hip, such as "Cowboys Without Hats". Check out The
"Features" section of DRUM! Interactive for additional drumming edge
editorial.
Other sections of this issue of DRUM! Interactive include SoundLab,
which reviews DW's Accent CS Custom Elite Drums, Meinl's Roped-Tuned
Djembes and Dream Cymbals; and Practice Pad, a series of six

DRUM! Interactive, without a doubt, isa good example of the future of publishing. Especially in our current market where recession is now occuring and could stay for quite some time.
