ABOUT

Drums of War captures the magnitude and essence of a forgotten battle fought in a forgotten place. The trepidation that proceeds battle can be found in the depth of “Hell’s Deep.” “ Sub Boomz” echo the warmth of a call that inspired the timid long ago. “Ancient Torture Drum” brings to mind long-extinct trees and the skins of beasts that haven’t been seen on the earth in millennia. “War Ensemble” is reminiscent of grand, prehistoric armies that stormed across a rugged landscape, terrorizing all in their wake. “Titan Ensemble” can help to evoke the courage of battle-weary soldiers or the fear of the death knell’s call.

Drums of War and “The Lord of the Rings”

Not every sampling company is fortunate to have a producer who spent two years of his life working on one of the most successful movie franchise in history. Tim Starnes' presence at the composition, recording and mixing phases of the score give him the unique understanding needed to faithfully emulate the percussion beds used in “The Lord of the Rings.”
