His business card is that of a drummer, so with all of those in his favor I was not surprised to see that he also plays a Risen kit.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3420.jpg\" rel=\"shadowbox[album]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3420-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Something to record and a place to stay -- the ideal scenario.\" title=\"Something to record and a place to stay -- the ideal scenario.\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3420-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3420-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3420-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3420-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3420-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3420-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Perhaps I should get some kind of sponsorship with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.risendrums.com\/\">Risen<\/a>, since Risen drums are basically the only drums on my project (Matthew Tobias plays Risen drums too).  Hmmm.  And looking at their website, I realized that while I was in Minneapolis, I played a gig with Steve Goold, who is featured on their website.  I never expected to run into so many Risen guys on this tour.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I had a great time recording Arsean, he contributed some sounds that were refreshingly different from the more pop\/rock sounds I had mostly recorded so far.  In particular he was all over one of my songs that has an Afro-Cuban 6\/8 rhythm, which he gave more of a 12\/8 feel.  It worked, and sounded quite tasty.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3421.jpg\" rel=\"shadowbox[album]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3421-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Arsean, drummer.\" title=\"Arsean, drummer.\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-624\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3421-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3421-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3421-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3421-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/zachbardon.com\/tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_3421-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll note that now that JH has gone, there will be fewer pictures.
