Greetings from my drumming underground,
Watch PERSPECTIVES: THE FILM here…
Tell me how it made you feel
“Perspectives” is in place to be Tripoli’s most ambitious collection of percussion recordings to date. This full length album brings new additions of Tripoli’s homemade instruments, contraption kits and found sounds. Including everything from mixing bowls to spoons, soup cans to paint cans, groan tubes to toy drums, pickle jar lids to bicycle racks…. even the kitchen sink.
Each tune also features an exclusive list of guest collaborators including Butch Norton, Rich Mangicaro, Kalani Das, Charles Corey, Sam Fishman, Brett Borges, Andrew Toy, Jason Schirripa, Neal Frankle and Johanna So.
This unique release brings improvised drumming to an artistically satisfying platform. Each presented recording is unaltered and authentically pure. No quantizing or editing was used on this record.
With special guests reaching from across the United States and further, each perspective offers a relevant extension to the art of drumming. Add to the equation the distinct innovations of invented instruments, found sounds and contraptions and the outcome is a truly individualistic special blend of talent, artistry and creativity.
