Sungazer, ft Hannah Sumner | The Dark | Drum Cover. As a longtime fan of Adam Neely's music theory YouTube channel, I was absolutely blown away by Sungazer's most recent electro jazz fusion album release - Perihelion. Shawn Crowder is a mind-bogglingly amazing drummer that consistently challenges even my basic understanding of rhythm. These guys are absolute legends, and I highly recommend you check out the full album. Lots of complex but very accessible and fun musical goodness.
The Dark is GROOVY. Shawn does an excellent job of staying in the pocket, being reserved, and exploding when appropriate. I had a blast learning all of the intricacies in this tune. The buildup to the final peak of the song gives me goosebumps, and I have to give total credit to Hannah Sumner for destroying this vocal track. Her performance is just powerful, and I can honestly say this song hit me on an emotional level. My performance, on the other hand, is a bit sloppy but life is busy and I don't intend to give off a false impression of perfection.
