This Tight 'n' Dry-based song, "Steely Dave," is featured on David King's second CD "Son of Strangley," released in 2009. Guitar Player Magazine said of David's playing, "King's round tone and sensitive phrasing is inspired and he elevates the guitar to a near mystical place."

A Logic user, of Drums On Demand King says, "Everything I've written in the last year starts with a groove from DOD -- and as a guitar player I find it raises my game as the loops are so natural and full of depth and feel. Many thanks."

"Monkey Business" by Andrew Bordoni

The song "Monkey Business" is featured on Andrew Bordoni's new album "Unfriended" available at andrewbordoni.com. "I use DOD in Logic Pro and everything worked without a glitch. Simple drag and drop. All of the drums on my new album are DOD (Solid Rock and Warm and Natural) and to be honest, I wouldn't have been able to do the album if it wasn't for DOD!. They sound killer, the playing is beyond amazing and you can find anything that fits your style. I am already working on several new projects this year. All using Drums On Demand!"
