Vic Firth DUOS | Darius Woodley & Carlin White

In conversation this week is Darius Woodley & Carlin White. For this vfDUOS the conversation started with their track. Inspired by the song "What About Us" by Brandy, these two made it their own!

"The original arrangement was actually a Brandy cover to her song “What about us”. We decided to strip the vocals in the beginning and create more musical elements that keep the melody but still give room for Carlin and I to have a conversation while keeping the integrity of the music. We decided to keep the vocal sample in at the end because it sonically felt right and helped us creatively express ourselves more the way it flows over the track." - Darius

More episodes are on their way!
