Click on this LOGO Contact Find out what recording-artists & producers say about the drumtracks that I have delivered John 'Rabbit' Bundrick - Composer,Producer, Keyboards "It’s John Rabbit Bundrick here, I’ve known Juan for a long time. I wrote this 'off the wall' instrumental using all of the knowledge I have learned from various musicians that exceed in the Jazz world. As soon as I listened back to my work, Juan’s name popped up in my head: a song for me to send to Juan for the drums. As usual his knowledge and professionalism was realised after he sent me his drum version of my Jazz Song titel: Grown Ups" John 'Rabbit' Bundrick - Bob Marley & The Wailers, The Who, Johnny Nash, Crawler, Andy Fairweather Lowe. Jerry Given - Recordi ng Artist "Juan is a highly skilled drummer to whom you can entrust drums of any style. He has a very good sense of the atmosphere your song needs.” Jerry Given - Singer & Songwriter Emile Bode - Music Producer "You always have some kind of expectation or reference in mind when you ask someone to play anything LIVE on your track. Then you hope that what is supplied is of added value, or at the very least more than you expected. In my situation, it's not always an easy operation because my drum recordings are frequently a collection of rhythms that must be replaced by a single drum track. Juan never ceases to amaze me in this regard. No, not the conventional 'I played exactly what I heard for you,' rather Juan interprets what he hears and performs it accordingly. As a result, the track has even more flair, character, and dynamics than it did when it was first constructed. Do you want your music to have more personality or stand out? Then I would strongly recommend Juan because of his drumming mastery and vision. His work is always of the quality and flexibility that I would expect from a professional musician; good! And the fact that he is a producer himself makes a significant difference because he understands exactly what you mean when you say you want or are looking for something special." Emile Bode - TheRoomRecordings Emiel Scholsberg - Recording Artist "When it comes to expressing what it's like to work with Juan, the first and most essential thing I'd want to emphasize is the sheer sincerity with which he treats everything he does and everyone he works with. Juan is the real deal. Period. This creates a secure and healthy environment in which you are free to be... you. Second, being a passionate creative himself, Juan has the unique ability to bring out the best in you, whether you're in the studio with him behind the console or performing on stage with him behind his drumkit. He certainly brings a wealth of expertise to the table, and his mastery of the instrument and production skills require no explanation; if you listen closely, they clearly speak for themselves. However, in my experience, none of this has ever stopped Juan from being open to new ideas, new techniques, and artistic research. Juan has played a significant role in my development as an artist. Emiel Scholsberg - Frimangron Music Arthur Antoine Theunissen - Music Producer " Juan's drum recordings are consistently of excellent quality. All of the hits are on point, and the groove is in place. There's also no shortage of inventiveness. With the multitracks, including good room mics, a fat drum sound is quickly made." Arthur Antoine Theunissen - Studio-CUBE Paul Rosenboom - Singer & Songwriter "I was looking for a drummer that could offer a good drum part for our Christmas single “Oh Holy Night”. Juan van Emmerloot was recommended to me by a musician friend. Reaching out to him I didn’t regret…the track was delivered immediately, and the result was, of course, 'outstanding' and a perfect complement to the rest of the arrangement." " Paul Rosenboom - La Familia Jan Willem Hoekstra - Pianist "We intended to play several of Jason Robert Brown's songs at our musical school DAPA (Dutch Academy of Performing Arts) long before any instrumental music tracks of his songs were available". One of our co-workers tipped us off to someone who might be able to assist us from his home studio. The tight, funky drum recordings that resulted served as the foundation for subsequent collaborations, including complete theatrical shows in which I blended my piano parts from home with Juan's drums and percussion from his studio. And... it doesn't only sound good all of the time; the excellent communication and huge range of possibilities for expanding to additional artists or even complete productions keep you wanting more . It's a must-have for any artist who, like myself, doesn't have access to a real drummer at home." Jan Willem Hoekstra - DAPA

In 1998 he began to teach clinics and workshops in the Netherlands. From 2000 till 2013 he was teaching at the Conservatorium at Rotterdam (also known as "Codarts") where he worked with talented students from all over Europe. Today Juan is CEO & founder at the Groove Impact Academy, where he teaches and coaches on a monthly basis in Arnhem (The Netherlands). The academy is located at the Sound Vision Studio, where he also works with music producer and multi instrumentalist George Konings. Producing As a drummer Juan performed at many studio sessions in the UK and the Netherlands. His fascination and passion for recording music started at the age of 15, using the "pingpong" technique with mono tape cassettes players. A year earlier at the age of 14, Juan was asked to play drums for jingles and demos at a local studio called ‘Joe’s Garage’. The passion of engineer Lats Varga inspired Juan to listen to details in music and to aim for the best live audio recordings. During the studio sessions later on, Juan has had the privilege to work with many great producers such as Ken Thomas, Curtis Schwartz, John Sonneveld, Pim Koopman, Robin Freeman, Erwin Steijlen, Emile Bode, and Joost van den Broek. Through these occasions he learned to listen to the acoustics of a live room, how to use various microphones and how to combine the analogue and digital recording sessions. Today van Emmerloot works at Sound Vision Studio (Drumstudio) on a weekly basis, recording drums for: Marco Canepa (It), S.O.B. Studios (Amsterdam), Bi-OS Productions (It), French House Recording Studio (Fa), Arthur Antoine Theunissen from STUDIO CUBE, George Konings at SOUND VISION Studio, Emile Bode (TheRoomRecordings) and producing albums for international music artists like John Bundrick (The Who, Bob Marley & The Wailers), Stef Burns (Alice Cooper, Sheila E) and Snowy White (Thin Lizzy, Rogers Waters), and for songwriters like Frederike Schonis (NL) and Niccoló Bolchi (IT), Micha Molthoff (NL) and Emiel Scholsberg (NL).. Author of the concept “Drumming Secrets Revealed" Juan van Emmerloot, a drummer and teacher, wrote this study guide for drummers. He began instructing when he was just 19 years old (! ), and in 1992, he ran his own percussion school. From 1999 to 2012, he worked with exceptionally gifted pupils from all over Europe as a teacher at the Rotterdam Conservatory (CODARTS). In order to get better study results in less time, he began writing a concept for drummers during this time. Online Courses: Juan had always thought that the best way to connect with drummers all over the globe would be through the use of video as a medium. In 2019 and 2021, he focused on the content and created more than 246 video lessons. His deep knowledge and skill are released in three online courses in 2023: “Grow from Basic to Advanced” “Song Analysis & Arrangements” “Instant Groove Composing” Book: The book by Juan entitled "Drumming Secrets Revealed - Grow from Basic to Advanced" was published in 2020. It is a 92 page hardcover book packed with information, advice, and illustrations that will help you progress from being a beginning or intermediate drummer to an expert level. Equipment Juan is supportive of building long-term relationships based on human factors when it comes to working with the correct companies. However, that has to go hand in hand with how well-made the goods are that these companies produce. He uses their products to help him produce his characteristic sound, so they must be of A1 quality. Juan: "As a drummer, you just have to be conscious of the fact that your sound isn't entirely produced by you." His favourite choice of top-brands are: Aquarian Drumheads - Audio Technica microphones & headphones - Sonor Drums (Beech Infinite, Birch Infinite, ProLite and AQ1) - Meinl Cymbals - KellyShu (microphone suspension system) - Pro Mark sticks - H&B Enduro drumcases - Protection Racket softbags for cymbals & guitars -ZOOM Q2, Q4, Q8 handheld HD video/audio recorder - Albrando SMAX - Emile Guitars
