Drum Transcription: "Automatic Sun" - The Warning
Музыка
To be honest - this transcription took me longer than I thought it would, and it was a little trickier than I thought it would be. It's not a difficult song by any means, but the timing of some of the grooves isn't super consistent across the track (not a complaint, merely an observation), so getting the timing right required a little bit more focus (and a reliance on waveform transients) than I've given other transcriptions in the past. Regardless, I think it turned out pretty good.
SIDE NOTE: As is the case with this transcription, and all the others that I make, this track MAY NOT be 100% accurate. I tried my best to get it as close as I can (because I listened to the original song and transcribed it by ear), but it may be slightly wrong or different to the actual drums of the song. In some instances, I may take some creative liberties to either get close to the original sound or change a very minor aspect of the song for creative purposes.
Anyway, here is some more information:

There is such a strong melodic quality to this drum track
Interesting on the variation: on their last album David Bendeth worked with Pau on being less precise to the click track, going more for feel.
That’s a drum track, not a drum transcription.

Eh, in my mind, calling it a "track" would insinuate that it's the actual drums from the song (like an isolated track essentially). So, technically speaking, I've transcribed it, but I get what you're saying. However, changing the titles of these videos just isn't feasible at this point. The text at the bottom that appears after a few seconds uses the word "transcription", and since that's how all of them are set up now, I can't change that. I want to be consistent with these videos in terms of their structure and visuals, and changing something halfway through this "cycle" would bother the hell out of me. Hopefully you understand my thought process on this.
