Guest idol_wild Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 We have to announce with massive regret that Kartta are now looking for a new drummer. Martin has, understandably yet sadly, decided to call it a day due to other commitments.We've decided not to let any dust settle and begin the search for a new drummer immediately.For those who don't know much about us, we're a 6-piece (well, reduced to 5 for the moment), and our main interests lie in volume, rhythm, atmosphere, and melody. We all listen to quite a broad range of stuff, but if we have to list any bands we have a musical kinship with, we'd say:My Bloody ValentineBuilt To SpillExplosions In The SkyTV On The RadioInterpolThe Cure...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of DeadCaribouDo Make Say ThinkRadioheadGang Of FourShellacSlowdiveWe have 4 demo recordings on our space: www.myspace.com/karttamusicAge does not matter, and commitment and passion come before immediate natural ability.Throw me a PM or send a space message if you're at all interested.

Jim Stax Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 Try a drum machine and or sampler. Given some of the influences you mention, and having seen you, it may be rather interesting and, dare I say it, a smidge different?Just a thought...

I personally have considered that, but we really do need a drummer. Unfortunately, we may struggle to get one as suitable as Martin, but heck, we can try!

Guest idol_wild Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 I might get tired of bumping this. We still would love drummers to contact us if they're interested. We'll give anyone an "audition" - we want to see just exactly what is out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think post-rock influenced drummers exist full stop! The only one who does exist in Aberdeen is leaving us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
