Raymond Herrera

Herrera is an award-winning composer and producer of music for video games, television, feature films and transmedia. An RIAA certified Platinum-Selling recording artist, Herrera recorded his commercial album debut with his former band Fear Factory in 1992. Soon after the album's release, Herrera began a nearly two decade long recording and touring schedule that included over twelve commercial album releases and numerous world tours. Herrera's drumming is considered to be a key part of Fear Factory's signature sound and their appeal to fans. He is also known for his high speed playing, particularly his double bass technique. Herrera's uses a "stop go" technique of drumming for his double bass rather than the usual "flooring face" style of double bass playing.
