For Wooden Planks (working title for my new album), I am going for a more acoustic sound. This means that there will be little or no electric guitar and almost no drum programming (I may still write some drum passages with Reason, but this is just because I don’t have a drumset here). To turn this dream into a reality (sorry for that), I’ve picked up the following percussion instruments:
Cajon
Bongos

Guiro
Shakers
Wood blocks

Claves

Tambourine
Honestly, these are fairly standard (maybe except for the cajon?) in a percussionist’s arsenal. I would like to add congas and a hi hat to the stash as well. We’ll see…
