Exciting news!

I'm currently working on a new solo album!
It features some of the hippest guys on the planet right now.
Nigel Hitchcock, Evan Marien, Richard Hallebeek, Frans Vollink, just to name a few.

I would like to take this opportunity to do a couple things really different for this production.

Most of my albums did great and sold worldwide, even with very little promotion by the record companies I was involved with.
Not to say I'm blaming them; it's always a risk to invest in the less commercial type of music.
But there is definitely a market and demand for the type of music I'm into.

The album will be entitled: 'Not This Time' and it will be a test for me to see if I can do the whole release and promotion part on my own, ánd more intensely.

To be able to do this, I will need your help!

To print and promote we need money obviously, so I have a list of options you could choose from if you want to be part of this release;-)

1. pre-order the CD, for only $15+
-you will be amongst the 1st to receive your signed copy

2. pre-order plus, $25+
-you will receive your signed copy, including a bonus track, extra background information per track and you will be able to download pictures and a clip of 1 of the sessions.

3. pre-order and invest, 50+
- you will receive your signed copy & all of the above, but also regular updates on the project with tasters in mp3 and video of the tracks I'm working on.

4. pre-order and invest plus, $100+

-signed copy of 'Not This Time'
-digitally download all my previous solo albums: Aggressive Attack, Timeline, Uturn, Sebastiaan Cornelissen Group, On Impulse
-video footage of all tracks on the new album
-minus one's (all instruments) of every track including charts and suggestions


Everybody who joins me in this 'adventure' by doing 1 of the above will automatically enter a mini-contest and get a chance to win a signed cymbal I've recorded with on the album.
Pretty cool I'd say!?

There will be updates on this project rather soon!:)

For those of you interested: I'm taking on a very limited amount of private students at my home in Bussum(NL).
I've been putting together a new booth behind the house which I use for tracking drums and teaching.
This means I can help drummers who want to get more into depth about their playing, style, phrasing, technique, as well as explaining them my recording/tuning ideas.

I'm able to record lessons on audio/hd video for reference in between lessens etc.
I'm sponsored by seelectronics.com, Turkish Cymbals and DK Drumworks so you'll be playing a proper set with a great sound.

If you think this sounds interesting enough, you can drop me a mail for more info and schedule.

Hello everybody,

Once again; some new material for you to download...!

A tune of mine entitled 'Life After Five'.
It features:

Rob van Bavel - grand piano
Evan Marien - bass (with an amazing solo!)
Itai Weissman - EWI
Sebastiaan - drums, guitar etc

This one is again meant not only to listen too,..but also to give it a go yourself on drums!
The download pack contains a chart, video of the studio session, drums solo ánd a minus one version to play practice with.
I'd be more than honored to hear your version of this if possible!
If you can, send me an mp3 of the mix with your drums and I'd be happy to listen, enjoy and comment.
I want to learn too.

New material available for educational use!

Hi Everybody!

I've been working hard on new material since the release of my most recent album 'On Impulse'.
The idea was to create music together with video, which could be more than just a composition to listen to.
A lot of the people who are interested in my music are musicians themselves, so I thought it could be a cool thing to have some new songs available on my website that you can listen to, but also play along to yourself!

On a regular basis there will be new uploads here. Each song you download comes with a variety of minus-ones, charts to help you on your way, plus a video of the band during the recording session(s).

The first song is called 'Oddfellows'(S.Cornelissen)
Recorded @ studio 27333, Germany
Coen Molenaar - keys
Frans Vollink - bass
Sebastiaan Cornelissen - drums



After your purchase, you will receive a download link that features:

-mp3 of the complete mix as we recorded it.
-minus-one mp3's (for drummers, bassists, harmony instruments)
-a pdf with basic chart with melody/accents/chords
 exercises and explanations
-video of the session (multiple cams)
