Lively Drumming
This is Shonen Knife’s drummer doing the drumming thing, which I believe is known as “drumming”. I thought I’d shared this photo here but it appears I did not so I’m sharing it now as I really like it. It … Continue reading

Suggested Motion, Suggested Stillness

Drummer in Motion
This was taken at a gig I recently photographed. I was trying to capture Delta Sleep’s drummer’s motion and I think I did alright. There’s a sense of power and flow here, as well as precision and consistency. This is … Continue reading

Michiko Naruke: Distant Days of Rest
I’m really not sure as to what I was going for with this. I think Michiko Naruke (なるけみちこ) is a really solid composer in many ways. She quite effectively gets across atmosphere and emotive content where necessary and more often … Continue reading

Hiroshi Yamaguchi: Sei-an City (Aristocratic Quarter)
