    I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to make content. You're helping me become a better drummer. 🙏🤘

    One of the best online tutorials!!! Thank you... bare bones gets down to it.... so many other dudes love to hear themselves talk... you end up spending most of a video listening to someone talk and then plays for like 20 seconds. I love your watch one, do one, teach one approach!

    Dude, this is great advice. I spent years learning to play fast beats on pads thinking I was doing ok, then I get on a real kit and it sounds like I'm playing with pencils my hits are so weak. Hitting hard makes such a difference, especially recording.

    You should do a video on how you tune your drums! Bass,snare , Tom , floor tom . Always loved your kit sound. Also maybe a video on how to progress with ghost notes? Thank you for all your content! Your lessons really help me.

    If it helps anyone, I used to practice on pillows for my hands and use ankle weights for my feet/ legs on the drum set. ( I got very fast very quickly. )

    Well all i need for my drumming i can find it with your channel Thomas !!!!! would you consider getting a bass drum pedal cam ? that would be the perfect complement !! hope you'll consider 🥁🤞🏻

      @PrettyCoolDrumShow  3 года назад +1

      Thank you! Yeah, I did one video with the pedal cam. I think it’s the Foot Techcnique for the Bass Drum video. My main issue with the new spot is space but hopefully I can figure that out soon

    Your drumming reminds me of Mick Harris. Energetic and fast but still dynamic. I see many hardcore drummers just hitting the drums as hard as they can and most of them run out of power at the shows which is understandable if you don’t have a somewhat good technique.
    Sorry for the advertisement but I play in a band called Oma Koloni and we try to play old school Finnish Hardcore like Terveet Kädet with a mix of Siege in there. It’s really been motivational to watch you play. I wish I was this good.
    Here’s our first album if you’re interested:
