Watch the house duo turn a holiday souvenir into a key part of their track

During ADE 2018, we went to see Hans Peeman and Daniël Leseman, better known as Fouk, for a house production masterclass.

During the full breakdown of the track "Mating Call", they grabbed a cheap Djembe drum and showed us how they deployed multiple production techniques to integrate it into the song. 

The full video can be found in issue 265 of Computer Music, on sale now.
