Two mad real-life drummers, Macc & Trax combine forces on “Drago’s Path,” an easygoing exercise in big beat funk. They score with an amalgamation of moody guitar, hip-hop scratches, jazzy bass slaps, a sax lick and a hilarious running sample that I can only attempt to translate as “ahyuh ho.. ahyuh yeah.” On the other side of the coin is ASC’s “Tradewind,” a melodic elegy with a clean, natural-sounding kit. A fat bass tone floats along slowly yet surely. Perfect for that sunrise set or romantic breakup.
