  • The Ocean hit Media charts

    In November The Ocean Collective hit the charts in several countries! Although this might be completely irrelevant and have no further meaning to a lot of people, it sure does mean something to me. It means that what i do and how i do it lead to things that work out and pay off in the end!

    And this is absolutely crucial to the idea of following a path, that makes one happy.

    Thank you all for supporting and believing in me! 🙂

    And here’s a full glimpse at my kit!

    I had some time yesterday to tweak my kit a little and set it up, like it felt most comfy to me and i also changed the dual-crash ride for the Benny Greb Official Sandride, which still sounds incredible.

    This is a very versatile setup, as it combines my huge crashes, that i use for The Ocean Collective with the dry and effectful Meinl Cymbals that i’ve been using for the Like Lovers tour back in September!
