Basil Kirchin


Lately, I have been rediscovering the drummer and composer Basil Kirchin.  My favorite compositions are considered library music/stock production compositions (which is a fabulous topic all on it's own.  I recommend this article about the topic on Pitchfork) .  He made a lot of interesting sound track music and percussive songs.  This guy was really ahead of his time and is quite humble about the music his contribution.

Interview from 2003 before Basil passed.

Comprehensive article by Jude Rogers discussing his body of work.
