Hi, I’m Alessandro. I’m a drummer and teacher, recording acoustic drum parts for artists and producers from my personal studio in Friuli, Italy. I bring my interpretation to each track, working with the artist or producer to find what best serves the music.
ALESSANDRO DRI / FRIULI, ITALY
I record from my personal studio and work in dialogue with producers and artists. I keep the brief as the main reference and, when helpful, I can suggest alternatives with discretion. The result is clean, mix-ready drum tracks.
Demo, BPM, notes and a few useful references: we start from what the song really needs.
I look for the groove, the sound and the approach that fit the track, while staying in tune with the production.
I deliver clean multitrack WAV files and a stereo preview so you can check the result right away.

Three short excerpts from recordings made for different productions. Listen here, without leaving the page.
From understated parts to less conventional ideas, my goal is always to find the sound and performance that make the song work.
An original music project where I explore different sounds and arrangements, leaving room for experimentation and creative choices.
The video loads only when you press Play. If it does not open, you can watch it directly on YouTube.
The stage and teaching are both part of my everyday work. Two different areas that also keep feeding the way I approach the studio.
I play live with Exes, a party cover band performing regularly in Friuli-Venezia Giulia and beyond. The band is built around a solid sound and a repertoire designed to carry the audience through two hours of music and celebration. Alongside this work, I also take part in projects such as Respect, focused on raising awareness about gender-based violence.
I have been teaching drums for over twenty years, currently at The Groove Factory in Martignacco (UD) and, since 2007, at the Associazione Culturale Musicale in Codroipo (UD). I also created and recorded a three-level drum course for Music Home Lab, with a total of 150 video lessons.
If you have a song in progress or a project to develop, feel free to write. I’ll be happy to understand whether I can be useful.
