In 2005 Toontrack Music was contacted by Pat Thrall with a request to record drums

for the Superior Drummer software engine at the New York studio where Pat had his

professional home. We all knew Pat’s work (with Glenn Hughes, Black Crowes, etc) and

jumped at the opportunity to work with one of our heros.

We became even more excited when Pat enrolled Neil Dorfsman, another

long-time hero of ours, to add his talents, passion, and experience to the

recordings. Neil has been around since the 70s recording and producing artists like,

Kiss, Bruce Springsteen, Dire Straits, Sting etc.

Pat also brought along renowned live and session drummer Nir Z, whose credits

include such diverse acts as Genesis and Joss Stone, to play his GMS drums for the

sessions. Nir was born in Israel and started playing at the age of 12, studying drums and

percussion under Shaoul Shaval and later on David Rich, former student of Joe Morello.
