Drummer Aquiles Priester has just released the first official teaser for his new DVD and Blu-ray, “All Access To Aquiles Priester’s Drumming”.

Recorded in the studios of the Harman Experience Center in Los Angeles, CA, in August 2018 “All Access to Aquiles Priester’s Drumming” brings, besides the institutional lesson, themes that the drummer registered on Hangar’s last album, “Stronger than Ever”, tracks from the three albums he recorded with Noturnall and the two new compositions by Edu Falaschi executed by the same musicians of his solo tour “Rebirth of Shadows Tour”. It was shot by Foggy Films with 12 cameras, designed by producers Junior Carelli and Rudge Campos, in partnership with Adair Daufembach, who took care of the recording, mixing and mastering.
