On this part of my web site you will find various downloads of recordings and productions that we have done in my home studio. I will give some advice and commentary for each track and I am looking foreword for some „feedback“.<\/p>\n
As a sort of a service, there are downloads for free of some songs, playbacks or loops – but you will also find some songs that I will sent you on pre-payment as a mp3 file. However there a little listening example.<\/p>\n
This part of the web site will be expanded refreshed on a regular base, since it will always be sort of a working process. If you like, check out this part on a regular base to get an update.<\/p>\n
So, have fun and hopefully enjoy the music!<\/p>\n
Soul & Funk from the Bass & Drum Class<\/strong><\/p>\n I have been runing the „Bass & Drum“ class at Drummers Institute for many years together with my friend and great bass player Peter Deinum. We are working „hands on“ on some of the most important songs and grooves of the great soul & funk music!<\/p>\n I have worked on some of the songs, re-arranged them and added some playbacks to play along without drums. You will find the bass and drum grooves written out on the „sheet“-section of this web site.<\/p>\n So far I have some instrumentials for you (Chameleon, Four String Drive, Palm Grease and Cissy Strut).

\nBilly Cobham was one of my main influences as a young drummer. I still have some of his songs in my mind such as „Red Baron“ or his work with Georg Duke! So it is a real honor for me, that Billy Cobham has given me his approval to write an arrangement of Stratus that \u00a0he composed in 1973. Next to strings, I couldn\u00b4t hold back to put a little drum & bass part in there! By the way: you will hear my wife playing Cello and Peter Deinum on Bass! I hope you like it! Enjoy listening!<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/janrohlfing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Stratus-90-sec<\/a>\n
