Muy bueno! The pitch in toms? They sound great

Great demonstration, which one is your personal fav?

Very informative, thank you.

Loved the video, thanks for showing us all these cool techniques! Sounds amazing.

I've been getting into cymbal modifications over the past couple of years, and the only way I'd change a cymbal with hammering is to hammer against a steel or iron backing anvil. Cymbalsmithing is a difficult art to master and it's very easy to end up with the opposite result from what you intended, but I have learned a few things. One is about hammering on bells. If you have a cymbal with a bell that is nice and clear and you like the tone, don't mess with it. However, if it's too clear for your taste, hammering it to introduce complexities does work very well. I generally work by hammering in concentric circles. They don't need to be completed before listening (and remember, you can always hammer, but you can never unhammer!) Also, remember that thinner cymbals require less hammering force, and hammer marks of equal strength will compress a larger radius on a thin cymbal than on a thicker one. Keep this in mind and try to visualize these compressed regions as you space out each strike of the hammer. There is also a way to change the profile of a cymbal for better ride response (stick definition), but that is a whole other complicated subject. I'm intrigued by the concept of inverting the cymbal to loosen it up. I mean, I have done this while working on thinner cymbals to make the top easier to hammer, but haven't explored doing this for its own sake.

Very nice ! and nice to meet you ! Gilles

whats the sticking?😊

I’ve had to work pretty hard to transition from a large 22” to an 18” without a ported resonant head. It has been bit of work Stuff like this is a good tip

Ah hundred + years ago traditional grip was invented for the sole purpose of playing a marching drum in a shoulder sling. It is a very un natural grip and it has to be learned. Yes I play traditional and match. So tilt your drum set at an angle and most importantly keep your left shoulder even with your right. I challenge you to look at 99% of traditional grip players -- all of them their left shoulder is LOWER than their right shoulder. They look like they're handicapped. Freaky stuff.

playing some of that Filthy McNasty

I guess i did it wrong mixing vinegar and sea salt water first together it creates a darker green patina

Sounds great!

By far one of the most tasteful, versatile and melodic jazz drummers of the web....

awesomee

So very clean, great sound ! Peace from Detroit MI.

Bro is having a jolly time 😂

Very good !!!👏👏👏

I think that some drummers (like in my case) use tradition grip because they got used to it from Drum Corps/Marching band. So, tradition grip feel natural after using tradition grip after 12 plus hours of practice each day; at least for me this is true. And my friends who marched Drum Corps say the same thing.

Hi. Say Hi to Chuck for me

Very well explained, thanks

Drake I used to always like you Istanbul traditional until I heard that Mattia!

man that old K sounds incredible

Im really not a fan of sabian artisan elites. they're super inconsistent for their price. for that money a funch or timothy roberts cymbal is a much better choice imo.

in this vidreo i'm garra tarlk... lol

sick drumming! loved it

Sound pretty jazzalicious

Great drumming it’s that tasty precision jazz sound that you play so well I hear a ton of joe morello in your playing fantastic you are pinpoint definition

To me, nylon tips are better for more big band and present stuff, anything that needs a brighter drum sound Wood tips are better for combo and small ensemble stuff. they have a dryer and more natural sound to them overall which i like better

I’ve had an H4N for years, love that thing. I think Zoom make some of the best field recorders, especially if you need something small for gigs or practice. Smooth hands as well!

What head for snare you use?

Bravo! Clean 🫧🫧🫧

Nice drive! 🎉🎉

Yes. I love my H6 recording device. My playing improves often when in use. Please consider purchasing one at your local retail outlet.

It has a good “ear” for cymbals as well. Directly above the kit with boom, or directly above your head would be a good option

This H6 recording rivals anything an expensive studio can capture after a whole day of micing up.

Indeed. I love my H6. I place it over my right shoulder on a tripod. It hears what I hear. It is also great for playing along to backing/guide tracks and mixing it in the headphones. You can record those tracks with your drums and it all goes into the DAW on separate tracks. It really is a recording studio on a stick!

Love your work.

💯

ride very nice！ I like this sound

❤❤

Many of my old favorite sticks are out of production, meaning that most drummers didn't buy enough from Zildjian, Vic Firth and Promark! So I'm increasing my diameter preference and searching for maple 7A nylon-tip and it is also something that is very difficult to find. I can get maple and wood tip, or hickory and nylon, but maple and nylon, nothing around besides On Stage which have poor reviews.

Hi, what's the size of the drums?

Very Good Dynamics👏🏼

I love your playing, what are those cymbals, by the way?

sick

Very nice playing!

Hello drake, in the jazz sound, is it common to use white frosted bottom drum skins, or do most people use clear skins?

I like the snare cranked really high and everything else low. I basically only play rock though.
