First four bars are without ghost's
Tip: if you wanna play ghost notes, get the stick in a position where the tip is naturally close to the drumhead. This will automatically produce silent hits and you just have to hit with a little more feel
Happy listening and practicing 😁🙌🏼
Recently bought a Pearl Roadhsow with stock cymbals that don't sound too well(Sabian Solars). Now looking for good replacements. Read that used is best but which Brands/Models should i be looking for specifically.
14" Hihats & 18" Ride
Some are sold for such ridiculous prices when you can do better with junk you have at home
If it even simulated a real snare or ton or whatever, fine, but it doesn't, it is actually VERY different
My wife just started playing, bought her first kit a couple of weeks ago, first lesson is tomorrow. She saw this out the other night and was mystified “it comes in holes?!” Haha, figured I’d ask ya’ll more about em?
Who’s the greater drummer Taylor Hawkins or Neil peart?
Per the article:
Longtime ZZ Top drummer Frank Beard has died, the band announced on Tuesday afternoon. He was 77 years old.
Beard passed away at his ranch in Richmond, Texas, alongside his family in hospice care.
“Today, Elwood and I lost a great friend and collaborator, and the world lost one of the most naturally innovative drummers and a great and true son of Texas. His signature backbeat was key to keeping ZZ on top,” said lead singer and guitarist Billy Gibbons.
While he wasn’t a founding member of the band, he went on to perform alongside Gibbons and bassist Dusty Hill for 56 years. He joined the band when they had already made their debut. Beard is actually responsible for bringing Hill into the group.
Hoping to find some new folk to dig on! Drop your lists:)
My list:
Terence Higgins
Andy Newmark
James Black
Jabo Starks
Gap Band
Bobby Charles
Smokey Johnson
George Porter
Frank Beard's recorded, hit-record performances, grabbed my ears when I was young. Pointing me to be a musician. I heard him in the car, in a boat, in a bar, or a tinny little AM radio! His back-beat, always there.
Frank Beard made his bones back in 1971 with the bonkers triplet fills on 'La Grange-, -Tres Hombres LP, right? Track 3 or 4? Clean, deep tuned punchy toms, a kick that sounded like a warm felt blanket. Snare Drum that didn't quit, rim clicks, before clickity-clackality was cool.
RIP Mr. Beard, the heartbeat of America runs because of people like you!
*TOAST!*
Hardest Meshuggah song IMO 🤷♂️
I am exiting a ~5 year long relationship, getting my own place, and my only goal for it is having enough space for a drum kit. I haven’t played for years. I somehow know nothing about low volume cymbals
I’m not looking for the best, nor the worst and as you can see there are a range of price options. Please share any wisdom you have!!
Whats your's?👀
There's even a drum solo in the 'Live on the radio' version, check it out!
Happy listening 😁🙌🏼
I started playing drums about 5 years ago. About 3 years ago i moved into an apartment so i stopped playing drums until about 6 months ago. First few months i was playing almost daily and having fun. Now the past few weeks i feel like i have zero motivation to play. I sit behind the kit and play some basic 4/4 stuff and get bored really fast. My question is what stuff do you do when you feel like you have lost the motivation to play
I noticed that the part where the ring of the drumhead is glued together seems pretty uneven. This is a brand new Evans G 2.
I checked other/older drumheads and whilst that part is never perfectly even it doesn't looks that extreme.
What do you think?
I recreated the sounds first, and then played them live. I hope you enjoy! Be sure to check out more of my videos soon 😊
