Antonio Sanchez
(drums, keyboards, electronics, voice)
A
drum solo by Antonio Sanchez, one of the most sought after drummers of
his generation. The four-time Grammy award winning artist describes the
experience an "...experimental project in the sense that it is a
complete departure from anything I've ever done in the past as a
drummer, composer, producer and engineer. Art is a reflection of life so
I took a look at what had been happening in the world, realized that a
surprising level of anger, frustration and awareness had been growing in
me due to the political situation in the United States. I also wanted
to have something that represented my Mexican heritage in a very
emphatic way at some point in the album. Taking all these feelings and
putting them into the creative process is always very cathartic and
playing drums has always been a very meditative and healing ritual for
me, so I wanted to develop this project starting with the instrument
that has been with me since I can remember. The drum set. I found this
project to be one of the most liberating endeavors I've ever set myself
to do. Almost like having an alter ego. The Bad Hombre."
