Marco Drums
Drums, music and experiences.
A personal project born to revisit songs, play the drums and share a bit of that experience through every video.
About Marco Drums
Playing for fun. Recording what's worth keeping.
Marco Drums is a personal drum cover and drumming project. It started with a simple idea: play for fun and record some of the songs that have been part of my life.
What was just a hobby grew little by little: first recording, then video, lighting and getting the sound right. And every song started getting a video with its own personality.
In the end, that's what it's all about: playing, trying out ideas, recording and sharing it with people who love music as much as I do.
A hobby taken seriously.
I'm not a professional musician, and I don't pretend to be.
I play because I love drums and music. And I put care into every video, because anyone who takes the time to watch deserves my best.
How it all started
A short story, still being written.
01
The drums
It all started in high school, when some friends and I put together a rock band and started playing shows around the area. Then life took each of us in a different direction, and the drums sat still for more than ten years. Until I started missing it and decided to come back: for fun, to learn, and to feel all of that again.
02
The idea
Coming back brought an idea with it: record some of the songs I love and turn those moments into videos. Not to make it a career, but to learn, try new things and show a bit of what goes on behind each song.
03
Marco Drums
That's how @omarcodrums was born: a place to share music, drums and whatever I learn along the way. It's also a way to hold on to this new chapter and, who knows, encourage someone who's been wanting to start (or get back to) playing.
04
Today
Today every song has its own story, from picking it to the finished video. Plenty has changed, I've learned a lot and I put more care into the details. But the reason is still the same: I play because I enjoy it, and I have fun doing it.
Drum covers
The latest videos
Songs that defined an era, played on the drums my way. Hit play and turn it up!
Behind the videos
How each video comes together
A peek at what happens before a video gets to you. It takes some work, but that part is fun too.
- 01
Practice
It all starts at the drums. Before recording, I listen to the song, learn every part and practice until it feels natural.
- 02
Sound
I record each part of the drum kit separately, then fine-tune everything so the drums sound great with the song.
- 03
Filming
I film from different angles and edit carefully, so the video is as good to watch as it is to hear.
- 04
Lighting and set
The lighting and the set change with the mood of each song, so the picture matches the sound.
