Drumattic Bio
With over 4000 shows under his belt, Bobby truly takes the gauntlet for most sweat poured on stage. A veteran punk rock drummer who has toured with the likes of Kid Rock and Megadeth, the industry has been promoting the astounding drumming skills of this showman since the 80’s. First with Young Gun, breaking drum sticks mercilessly while pounding on his kit and touring the States at the young age of 17, then moving on to form DDT with the lead singer Brian Howes. DDT received critical acclaim for its impressive fusion of ska-punk-reggae-adrenaline drenched rock. Signed to Lars Ulrichs label TMC/Electra, the band received considerable airplay and toured extensively all over North America and Europe with many major arena rock names including Static X, Sevendust and Scorpions. Bobby went on to play with Noise Therapy and spent a huge portion of the 90's touring North America, ripping up stages once again, going on to sign with Redline Entertainment. Spending countless hours on tour busses gave Bobby the chance to develop many skills, 2 of which were producing slick beats and twisting up wicked visuals. His love for electronic music also gave him the freedom to experiment out of the “rock band” mold that he had found himself in. Inevitably, this led to the birth of his own project: Drumattic-- a one man drum show with original digital dance compositions, and scripted visuals projected on giant screens accompanied by a probing light show. Within the last 2 years, he has proven to be the quintessential party favor at all of the massive musical gatherings in Canada, playing alongside super DJ’s such as Bad Boy Bill, Manny Lehman, Tony Moran, Erick Decks, and DJ Dimitrie from Paris just to name a few. His roster of corporate clients continues to grow after rave reviews from past patrons such as Microsoft, Telus, Canthrill Events, Cargo Events, Bacardi, Sudden Impact, Toy Box Boy Productions, Arc 2 Entertainment and more.
Drumattic is currently working on a new show comprised of a ten song digital landscape that will move his audience with contemporary themes and handcrafted visuals. He is also responding to an increasing demand of his production skills by creating soundtracks for live theatre, movies and games. Flexing his songwriting skills, he is also in collaboration with renowned vocalist and composer Christina Sing in a project called Destineak. Fusing elements of trance, jazz, rock and hip hop they forge an eclectic and hypnotizing electro-funk sound that is due out in 2007. An insatiable creative force that is constantly performing and writing, Drumattic will not be stopped until he has entertained you.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
Wow... I have got to be honest with you.. I very rarely e mail people to complement them on a performance..... However i have to take time out of my day to give you feedback on your performance at the standard. You approached me and a friend in the back smoking area and gave us a flyer about your website. To be honest with you i am not to keen on that style of music so i did take it but didnt really think i would be visiting your website.... All of a sudden it happened... A friend who regularly goes to the standard got my attention and said watch this its nuts.... All i can say is holy shit... I have never seen so much energy in a club.. People were going banana's. I had nothing to drink that night but all of a sudden became hyper... Dude.. you rock..This was not a performance.. It was a expierence..We have told everyone about this and they have a tough time understanding it... When the whole dance floor is jumping around with one hand in the air saluting you...You know you got something going... Like I said.. I rarely put an extra effort in to complement people but i just wanted to let you know that out of all the cllubs i have been to this has probably left me with the most memorable experience... I will be sure to bring my wife... my friends and family to watch your performance..Great work!
Excellent show.................................................Michelangelo
