I mean homeboy was playing on PADS and it sounded pretty close to a drum set, although every snare hit sounded pretty much the same (not his fault).

Thank you for that. Although if he had skills on a real set, this would have been OUTRAGEOUS. Probably he does, maybe he doesn't, but a real drum set would have been in a whole different DIMENSION. I mean he would have been hitting the cymbals with different feels, blah, blah, blah....

I will say this, the "magical" piece of this was the bass player, and he was playing an actual BASS.

-There's nothing like real instruments and real players playing their instruments.

This is coming from a keyboard player who uses loops, drum machines, samples, and everything else to approximate real players....when I don't have them.
