Dive into this special bonus edition of "On A Water Break" as host Stephen McCarrick chats with dynamic bass drum duo Adrian Gonzalez ("Gonzo") and Mako, known together as Gonzako.

Gonzo and Mako share the behind-the-scenes story of their latest high-energy music video, "More Bass In Da Club," produced alongside Lou from Fourth Block.
