Blake you’re AWESOME. This is so dope, and they would be so lucky to have you!!!

[@zappasmoustache23]

Listened to quite a few of these auditions now and this is my favourite so far. As good as most of them are no one (imo) has managed to get the snare fills as tight as you do here. Felt like I was hearing the track as a whole rather than just someone playing along. Hope they see this.
