    £leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!

    Hugs from Brazil,

    Hey there Jason, long time no speak! How's life been treating you?!

    I am taking a gamble here, on the possibility that the end of my 1,769,017-year-long-tunnel-of-seclusion (and finally a real honest-to-God Album Release Date to show for it!) might perhaps be reason enough to check in and say HELLO? :>
    It would be an honor to have you on board...

    ...well either way I'm saying HELLO!

    and before too long, I'll be NOT LETTING IT DIE on a stage near YOU :)

    Next Monday... the RELEASE of RAUSCH!!!

    Hope all is well ...

    Best,

    Doug

Shadows Fall - Still I Rise

Jason Bittner, started taking formal drum lessons at the age of ten years old, however he had been banging on pots, pans, and garbage cans since he was about five. A native of Albany, NY, he continued to take lessons and perform in his middle school and high school jazz and orchestra ensembles before heading off to the prestigious Berklee College of Music in 1988.

After studying theory, arranging, and Latin and jazz drumming styles, he left Berklee to pursue his musical career outside the educational environment. This led to playing in various metal and hard rock bands throughout the late eighties and early nineties. During this period he was also attending a local community college (for an unrelated degree) and performing with their jazz and percussion ensembles.

In 1994 he joined Stigmata, who was, at the time, one of the biggest hardcore bands on the New York scene. Over the course of the next 7 years, he recorded 3 albums, released a home video, and toured the U.S. and Europe with this outfit. After being together for over a decade, the band decided to call it a day in 2001.

As luck would have it, it would be the fall of 2001 when Bittner joined Century Media recording artists Shadows Fall. Initially he signed on just to do one tour of Europe with the band, but considering that fact that the band had so much going for them, and the chemistry between the 5 members was so great, he decided to quit his job and stay a permanent member.

In September of 2002 the band released "The Art of Balance" and went on to tour relentlessly all over the US, Japan and Europe from venues ranging from small clubs to the stage of OZZFEST 2003. It was also during this time period when Bittner won his first Modern Drummer Reader's poll for #1 Up and Coming Drummer of 2004.

September of 2004 brought the release of the album "The War Within", which debuted at #38 on the Billboard charts. Over the next year, the band once again toured all over the world, including arena tours with Slipknot, and a main stage spot on OZZFEST 2005. At this time, TWW has scanned over a quarter million copies, and has also received a Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance. This record was also powerful enough to help Bittner win again in the 2005 MD readers'poll, this time for #1 Best Recorded Performance, and #1 Metal drummer.

Over the course of 2005, Bittner started establishing himself as a clinician as well. He performed at the Modern Drummer Festival in May of 2005 to a standing ovation. In September, he performed at the DRUMMER live festival in the UK, followed by a clinic tour of Germany, and he also performed at PASIC in November of 2005. November of 2005 also brought the release of Shadows Fall's first ever DVD, "The Art of Touring" which Bittner helped film and produce.

In 2006 Bittner was a very busy man. In the first three months he played fill in gigs for Anthrax, Hudson Music released a joint DVD with him and Chris Adler, Pro-Mark introduced the Jason Bittner Signature model 5BX drumstick, and Meinl introduced the Bell Blast ride, designed in conjunction with Jason. He was the cover feature of the UK drum publications, DRUMMER and Rhythm, and the cover feature of DRUM! In July. He was also one of the handful of lucky drummers who got to participate on Magna Carta's Drum Nation 3 record. Jason also won the Modern Drummer Reader's poll for the second year in a row for 2006 #1 Metal drummer.

As for Shadows Fall, 2006 was also very productive year. The band released "Fallout From the War" on Century Media Records. Signed a Major Label Deal with Atlantic. Records. Toured throughout July and August in support of “Fallout”, and spent the remainder of the year writing and recording “Threads of Life” at Studio 606 in L.A. with Producer Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, RUSH)

2007 proved to be another busy year for Bittner and Shadows Fall. In the early winter months, Jason spent much of his time writing and recording new material for his side project, "Burning Human". He also released a new book called "Drumming Out of The Shadows", co-authored by Joe Bergamini, available through Carl Fischer Publications. Late March brought the beginning of the Shadows Fall tour cycle supporting “Threads of Life”, which was released in April 2007, and received another Grammy nomination once again for Best Metal Performance in 2008. Also during this time period, Bittner started writing a monthly drum column for RYTHYM magazine in the UK, was a faculty member (along with Steve Smith, Dave Weckl, and Horacio Hernandez) at the 2007 Drum Fantasy Camp held at Seton Hall University, and won #1 Metal drummer and #1 Rising Drumming Star awards in the 2007 DRUM! Reader’s poll.

As 2008 nears its mid-way mark, Shadows Fall is once again home writing for their next release. The “Threads of Life “ tour cycle ended in May, with the band this time reaching fans as far away as Mexico and the Philippines, and pushing the cd’s sales over the 100,000 mark. His book “Drumming Out of The Shadows” received the #2 award in the DRUM! Reader’s poll for Best Educational Book, and he was also one of the featured artists in the book “On the Beaten Path” by Rich Lackowski. This book was the #1 Educational book of 2008 in the Modern Drummer and DRUM! Magazine reader’s polls. In other band news, Burning Human plans on releasing their debut CD “Resurrection Through Fire” by the year’s end. Lastly and most importantly, Bittner and Hudson Music, are preparing to launch the drummer’s first ever instructional DVD entitled “What Drives the Beat” in October of 2008, with a clinic tour to follow.







“WHAT DRIVES THE BEAT” DVD FROM HUDSON MUSIC FEATURES MASTER METAL DRUMMER JASON BITTNER’S HARDCORE DRUMMING.

An in-depth look into the awe-inspiring drumming of a modern drum hero, “What Drives The Beat” shows just why Jason Bittner is one of the most popular drummers on the planet. The new, three-hour DVD from Hudson Music is the two-time Grammy nominee and multiple readers poll winner’s first full-length solo video project and features a wealth of performance and instructional content aimed at aspiring young metal players but applicable to many styles, ages and ability levels.

One of the highlights of the DVD is Jason’s presentation of his “Double-Bass Crash Course.” The step-by-step method for developing foot control, power, endurance and speed is explained and demonstrated in detail while foot cameras and split-screen shots augment the instructional material. 16th, Triplet, 32nd, Combo, Shuffle, Ruff and Blast Beat patterns are covered with all the examples and exercises included in an exclusive PDF eBook that can be printed and used for lessons and practice.

Jason discusses his background, his influences and his approach to drumming and then employs specially selected performance tracks to illustrate specific drumming concepts, such as: • The Basic Beats and Fills of Metal Drumming • Applying Rudiments • Hand and Foot Technique • Developing Both Feet Evenly • Two-Handed Ride Patterns • How To “Metalfy” Jazz, Funk, Shuffles, Slow Blues and World Beats • Soloing

Bonus content includes additional solo footage, Jason’s complete warm-up/stretching routine, a live rehearsal video of Jason’s band, a photo gallery and more.
