Heh, Mike Carlyle's recorded-with-DoggieBox track "Come Alive" just cropped up on my workplace's office MP3 jukebox again. From across the room, it certainly sounded as convincingly pro as anything else on there (more than some :) and I didn't actually sit up remembering what it was until the last few bars :)
Cheers, Carl
Well, blending into the background is better than standing out as godawful, I suppose.
That song remains one of the last things I actually finished. Working in a cover band has sapped all my creative energy, but it will return.
Thanks for liking it!

Strangely enough, "Flowchart" just cropped up now too. Both songs sound totally pro -- I don't think anyone here would guess they're home studio creations :) (Special kudos to Doggiebox, natch, though an MP3 through battered old speakers on the far side of an office don't really show off the quality of the drum programming to its best advantage ;)
Cheers, Carl
Flowchart was the David Holloway kit. The other song was the nskit.
I'm still torn between the two, and gravitate towards David's when I want a very "live" sounding track.

Flowchart is my favourite, but I do like Come Alive too - they pop up on my playlists from time to time too.
Have you tried the kit based on the samples you found the other day - the Yamaha 9000? I've put a linked version on my site - or download the file directly from

I guess you have the samples already. I've just used the icons from ns kit roughly but its good enough to play about with.
