Jimmy Chamberlin on New Album by LEILAMORDE



Apparently 'Jimmy Chamberlin drum samples' are on a number of tracks.

Check some of it out here... and here

More info about where these samples originated anon...

(I'd put money on JC drums being on "Qui non c'è gravità"...)

(Update: 12 May 2010) I got in touch with Dom and Marcello from Areasonica Records and this is what they had to say about the samples;
...when we chose the drumsets, we had various options, so we [used] the Jimmy cd-samples/loops* because they fit perfectly for some tracks...Chamberlin was not directly involved, but the jc-drums we used...influenced some tracks...
...yes the track "qui non c'è gravità" ("there's no gravity here") is fully jc. 

...At least five or six of the other tracks have double or triple drum-sets, where only bits and pieces of jc-drumset have been used... Basically, jc is in the first four tracks, track 8 and 10.
* I'm assuming they mean these...

Great to hear Jimmy Chamberlin's influence in another 'genre', other than the ones he's usually associated with...

I'm reliably informed that this is the new home of THIS. More info when I get it.

Update - No release date for the album has been set, yet and any other news will probably be available on This site first, rather than here. So keep your eyes peeled.

Learn how to play like Jimmy Chamberlin



In this months' issue of Rhythm Magazine in their Drum Lessons "Rock" section, you can "play like" Jimmy Chamberlin. 

Perhaps Taylor Hawkins should take a look. 

Anyway, there's a neat little write-up, some drum tab (Including; "a classic Chamberlin power grove - like the verse in Cherub Rock", "the closing four bars of Geek U.S.A" and "a segment from Life Begins Again" [DP - It's Loki Cat]) and a free video tutorial with Adam Bushell.

Go buy it.
