EpiK DrumS Stereo Kits for Reason is a deluxe collection of drum kits created with legendary producer and engineer Ken Scott (The Beatles, Elton John, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Supertramp, etc.), and five iconic drummers Bill Cobham, Terry Bozzio, Woody Woodmansey (Bowie), Bob Siebenberg (Supertramp) and Rod Morgenstein (Dixie Dregs) as well as bonus percussion and kits in the style of The Beatles and Elton John. EpiK DrumS Stereo Kits for Reason is a stereo reduction of the multitrack drum kits for the Infinite Player, capturing Ken Scott's painstakingly re-created classic album mixes!
EpiK DrumS Stereo Kits includes seven advanced expressive drum kits in the style of artists such as David Bowie, Supertramp, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Dixie Dregs, Missing Persons, Elton John and The Beatles. The sound of EpiK DrumS is stunningly authentic. Sonic Reality hunted down the specific vintage gear used on the original albums that made Ken Scott and these legendary drummers famous and used that gear to record EpiK DrumS. With the recording equipment in place, an all star team including Drum Doctor Ross Garfield was assembled to gather and prepare the instruments for this production. Surgical detail was applied to every aspect of EpiK DrumS Stereo Kits from the drum instruments themselves to the microphones to the preamps and outboard gear employed.ABOUT KEN SCOTTKen Scott is a legendary British recording engineer and producer who recorded The Beatles, David Bowie, Elton John, Supertramp, Pink Floyd, Jeff Beck, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Billy Cobham, Duran Duran, Dixie Dregs, Missing Persons, Devo, Lou Reed, America, George Harrison and many other iconic artists in music history. He had his start in the 60s working as a Tape Op at Abbey Road Studios and from there went on to produce and/or engineer some of the most acclaimed albums of the 20th Century. Ken has recorded timeless songs such as "I Am The Walrus," "Rocket Man," "Ziggy Stardust," "Dreamer," "Walk On The Wild Side" and many others. One of the unique aspects of Ken’s career in music is the diversity of iconic styles he has been a part of from the 60’s to today… from the birth of Modern Rock ‘n’ Roll (Beatles) to Glam Rock (Bowie) to Fusion (Mahavishnu Orchestra) to New Wave (Missing Persons, Devo) and more. 

Ken Scott has collaborated with Sonic Reality to capture samples in a modern software instrument with some of the most sought after distinct character sounds he has recorded over the years. These are sounds that might otherwise be lost in history, but with the same great ears, technique and style Ken has preserved a sonic part of his legacy to bring inspiration to new musicians all over the world.
