Timeless Drums, Legendary Studio:
Pop/Rock EZX draws its inspiration from the classic GMS drum setup, encompassing an array of snares, bass drums, and cymbals. The soundscapes were meticulously recorded at the renowned Avatar Studios, under the expertise of engineers Neil Dorfsman (known for his work with Bruce Springsteen and Dire Straits) and Pat Thrall (noted for collaborations with Beyoncé and Katy Perry), alongside the extraordinary session drummer Nir Z (credited on Chris Cornell and Genesis records). Avatar Studios has earned accolades for its impeccable acoustics and has been frequented by music legends such as Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Journey, Kings of Leon, and The Clash since its establishment in the 1970s.
