When I began writing the piece I found myself composing rhythms in the style and feel of the great drummer, John Bonham. Not intentionally, but in reflection, Bonham's heavy and convicted style of drumming felt like the perfect paradigm for this work. Dex moves through a myriad of textures, colors, and metric modulations to create sort of a \"drumming fanfare\" that I hope is both fun to play and expierence as a listener.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDex is named for my dog and best buddy Dexter, who sat beside me on our porch as I wrote much of this piece.\"","brand":"Steve Weiss Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43804162850870,"sku":"BURRITTD","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/burritt-dex-sp-p.jpg?v=1773400569","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/dex-burritt","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
