"I feel very fortunate to have worked with you, Daniel, and DRUMJUNGLE for this prestigious YPO (Young President's Organization) event in Oman . . . you are 100% PRO!"
Dennis "Gig" Xifaras | Associated Entertainment Consultants
"Daniel de los Reyes' DRUMJUNGLE is a dynamic mix of amazing musicians and Vegas type dancers that mixes a stunning blend of high-energy entertainment and pleasant eye candy. Be prepared to be up on your feet dancing. Danny's monstrous percussion and all-star ensemble has made them popular, but it is their talent that has set them apart."
Billy Amendola | Modern Drummer Magazine
"I've been to about 30 NAMM shows and have produced and seen as many concerts but none with the excitement and pulse of DRUMJUNGLE! From start to finish the beat goes on and you can't help but smile. You've got to see them to believe it!"
Don Lombardi | (DW) Drum Workshop and Gon Bops Chairman
"DRUMJUNGLE ripped the room to shreds with their nonstop intense Brazilian and Salsa set [at the NAMM 2007 Sabian LIVE! concert]."
DRUMMER magazine | April 2007 issue | The UK's loudest DRUM magazine!
"Dear Daniel: I'm too old to really appreciate the jiggling ladies, but I'll never be too old to be knocked out by the hard-driving solid rhythms of DRUMJUNGLE! Keep up the great work!!"
"DRUMJUNGLE is a spectacular production! Daniel de los Reyes tailor made a performance for our audience and more importantly is pushing the evolution of Latin music. Modern interpretations of traditional rhythms and injections of electronica are an infectious combination."
Chris Stankee | SABIAN Artist Relations
"Daniel de los Reyes... The DRUMJUNGLE performance had the intensity and perfection that I have come to expect from anything that you do! Congratulations! You took an art form to another level. What a great
pleasure it is for Regal Tip to be associated with you and your company."
Carol Calato | Vice President | Regal Tip | Calato Manufacturing
"Daniel, I wanted to express some thoughts regarding the DRUMJUNGLE performance at the Sabian Live event held during the NAMM Show 2007. Regal Tip was very proud to sponsor such an energetic and dynamic event that entertained everyone in the crowd. The performance was full of energy and life, and represented the very best in percussion. The sound and visual combinations made this show one of the best! Again, thank you for a great performance. We are honored and proud to have you as a Platinum Endorser of Regal Tip products. All the best."

“Daniel’s percussion expertise is unrivaled in today’s competitive music industry. His commanding performances are filled with raw power and energy that have captivated audiences around the world. His work ethic and professionalism are top rate. Combined with his music abilities, I know DRUMJUNGLE INC. will be a huge success!”

"As a fellow drummer and producer that has been to more NAMM shows that I care to remember, I just wanted to comment on your fantastic performance at this year's NAMM show. It was so refreshing to see something that was pleasantly unexpected. I was expecting to see the usual self-gratifying soloists that often leave the audience numb and mentally exhausted. What I got was something that was quite memorable. The show was musically and visually awesome, and the audience was very much into everything on stage. It often felt like we were watching Carnival in Brazil. It took the audience away from the ordinary, and into a much more exciting experience that I am sure will be remembered for a long time!"
Joshua Eagan
“Thank you, Daniel, for a job well done August 13th at The Hilton for our 2006 NALC convention celebration in Las Vegas. The cast of DRUMJUNGLE INC. arrived on time, they were professional, the costumes looked fantastic and the guests were blown away by the presentation! Needless to say the client was very pleased. Daniel, you were a real pleasure to work with. All the best in your endeavors and I hope to work with you again soon."

“Once again, DRUMJUNGLE INC. truly lived up to our [Cirque du Soleil's] expectations, their extraordinary technique in rhythmic performances set the perfect mood for what was coming. Jamming with them again was a privilege, a true pleasure, and I welcome the opportunity to work with Daniel de los Reyes and his team anytime possible."

"As a highly acclaimed percussionist, performer, producer, clinician, and inventor, Daniel de los Reyes is a rare example of someone who possesses the right combination of intelligence, experience, connections, and guts that separates himself from the masses. His pedigreed upbringing allows him to dream big, his years of paying dues on the road allow him to filter these ideas with a business-minded sieve, and his passion for life and music -- they are one in the same for him -- allows him to pursue worthy ideas with the level of energy and enthusiasm that they demand. He's a vistionary with the drive to execute. But above all, he is and always has been one single thing: a drummer."

"As backstage manager, I didn’t get to enjoy much or see much of the “KA” Premier Party . . . However, I turned my walkie-talkie and cell off for a few minutes and stood right in front of the stage because I wanted to get a second chance to hear what I had heard during rehearsals. Daniel de los Reyes’ DRUMJUNGLE PRIMAL show totally blew me away!! I really hope to have the privilege of working with them again, but mostly I hope that more and more people will have the opportunity to hear this incredibly talented band!”
Sophie Picard | Cirque du Soleil

“Danny, congratulations on putting together one of the most exciting musical events I have ever seen. The level of musicianship you surrounded yourself with had an obvious appeal to other musicians, but the music they played captivated the general audience. People in the "KA" crew were dancing backstage! The rhythm or the beat of a song is often what touches ones soul. DRUMJUNGLE PRIMAL, you’ve laid it out so it is unmistakable. The only suggestion I might have is that you prepare an encore, as heard when you got a standing ovation at the end, people wanted more!”
Don Lombardi, President | Drum Workshop, Inc.
“I dropped by the “KA” Premier Party soundcheck not knowing what to expect . . . I was mesmerized!!! Pure energy and this was only the rehearsal! The day after the party, everybody from Celine Dion’s show who saw, heard, and danced to the music of DRUMJUNGLE PRIMAL had the same reaction. DRUMJUNGLE PRIMAL is like Redbull for your ears, eyes, and soul. Definitely something to see!”
Paul Picard | Percussionist for Celine Dion
"The performance that Reyes put together for the 2006 Winter NAMM show was simply amazing. It was absolutely inspiring to watch how seamlessly he can reinterpret and blend so many musical styles; his combination of talent and artistic prowess is a rare thing indeed. It was an added thrill for us at M-Audio that our products play such an important role in his creative process. It makes our job so much easier when artists like Reyes are able to show off the true capabilities of our technology. It's an honor to have him onboard as an M-Powered artist."
"Daniel de los Reyes and his DRUMJUNGLE INC. musicians were pure joy to have at Wake Forest University. The wonderful drumming and dancing intrigued and delighted all of the students in attendance. Not much on a college campus can bring together students from different backgrounds and cultures like music, and the talent and enticing draw of DRUMJUNGLE proved just that. This was especially true when DRUMJUNGLE members danced in and with the crowd. In short, the show was awesome!"
Wake Forest University Office of Multicultural Affairs
"Daniel de los Reyes and his DRUMJUNGLE INC. troupe at the TRAP (The Rhythm Arts Project) Annual 2006 Summer Benefit was like icing on the cake of an amazing day of music, art, dance, and drumming. DRUMJUNGLE INC. artists blended Pop, Rock, and Funk and tied it all up in a tight Latin bow that had the entire neighborhood dancing. I couldn't have dreamed of a better way to end a completely glorious day."
Eddie Tuduri, Founder | The Rhythm Arts Project
"Daniel de los Reyes and his DRUMJUNGLE INC. musicians were one of the highlights of the 2006 Mt. Charleston Jazz Festival. Their electrifying performance had the festival audience captivated and dancing in the aisles. DRUMJUNGLE INC. was a pleasure to work with and I look forward to the next time I can see these talented, energetic musicians perform."

Our guests from Miami, New York, and Las Vegas were captivated by the compelling DRUMJUNGLE INC. performance at the ICON event.
Julie Gilday-Shaffer | Managing Partner, R&R Live, Las Vegas
"Our educational event would have been great with just you [Daniel] but to have included Raul Pineda, Ron Powell, and Mickey Alvarado on the same bill just put our event over the top!"
Bob Benora (UNLV) | PAS Nevada's Annual Day of Percussion
“Having personally worked with Daniel de los Reyes at many music events over the years has always been a pleasure. His extraordinary musical talents and onstage charisma always leaves the audience wanting more. Professionally, his attention to details both musically and technically are always in the forefront resulting in a memorable kick-ass DRUMJUNGLE PRIMAL show!”
