Default [WANTED] real drums for Prog Rock / Metal song

Heya, all you drummers out there!

Together with a friend of mine I composed this song and am quite happy with how the demo version turned out:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1bz..._16HmxRgO5MVPw

I came up with the drum parts playing at a friend's place. Now I am far away from his home and can't access the drum set anymore, so I just programmed them. But programmed drums are shit.

Sooo, to be able to record the song properly, I would love to have this drums played by a human being with feelings. Is anyone willing to contribute?

Then, after having the drums, I will record guitars, bass, voice and possibly saxophone.

Here is the project file with a few stems:

Hi ...

I'd like to have my shot (:

Could you please e-mail me with a project-file attached, that includes the tempo / meter - mapping and a backing track without drums .

I have over 20 years experience playing rock/prog drums, Superior drummer, and a pad. I'd like to take a stab at your song to see how convincing I can make it, even if you don't end up using it. Please pm me a link to the files.

Thanks! I should have time to work on it this weekend.

How close do you want us to stick to the spirit of the part in the demo?

Cool! Well, I'd actually like it to be pretty close to what I came up with.

Especially the dynamics. I would like the chorus to be a bit calmer than the rest. Since it is the only part in 4/4 and has got nice chords I would like the focus to be less on the rhythmic section but rather on the melody and guitars.

I already had a listen to the version BlessedOne72 sent me. Adding some fills makes it sound so much more alive. Hahaha! But yeah, I prefer the verses to be more rhythmical and then the chorus to kind of "breathe".

If you know what I mean...
