So as part of my media lessons in my 2nd year of my Advanced Digital Musician course I was required to make music and soundboard to an advert, I decided to go with the Bacardi advert, was a real fun and interesting challenge creating music in a different way than my usual DJ style House tunes, actually enjoyed it a lot! Here it is, just thought I’d share with you guys 
That was actually pretty good lol. Didn’t expect that kind of music after reading your description. I’ve always been interested in music for video, looks like something really fun to do. Glad you shared.
Loving your vocals Roben, i didn’t realise you sounded like that. What mic technique did you use on the drums and percussion? I’ve always found timbales hard to record - seems you did a good job on that one. Good work.
Recording Percussion - Brilliant Dom! LOL
Usually 2 x 57s for close micing, but i do like the 58’s too as they’ll give bit of a softer top end particularly useful if i’m recording lower end sounds.
However these were created using hit sounds in a DAW.
i liked it also… nice work!

So you cheated. This is just like someone making a tune by putting together some loops in Dance Ejay. Unless you programmed each individual hit using midi and sung the vocals in
