Musical musings...

I'm thinking about upgrading my DD-55 electronic drum to a Handsonic 10 (or 15?)... If I want to get serious about playing more music, especially live, it would be a good way to up the ante while remaining fully portable.

At first I would be using mainly the 'acoustic drumkit' sounds to do what I already do, this unit does open up many new possibilities. Here are two examples of 'exploratory electronic hand percussion'.... :





While the above Hansonic items are "what we all hope/think we will play like" This is more likely what I'll sound like until I add the hard work of learning and practicing (i.e. the largest part of 'inspiration' is 'persperation'...). I'll keep you posted...
