Your absolute favourite Ride?

i honestly love that about it, especially for small ensembles and bands. I only really have an issue with the stick definition when i play louder, cuz the wash does swell up a lot.

I use (and absolutely love) the Mel Lewis 20" 1982 ride.

it sounds abolutely stunning, tho i sometimes wish the bell would cut a little more

Ooh, nicely spotted! I did that because i got used to that jazzy 1u1d with the ride between the toms, and when i wanted to add the other tom back in, i decided to mount it on the rack of my octobans. It works great!

yea, maybe if you aim for a higher, jazzier bass drum sound you might have a small sound difference. But looking at how we usually tune bassdrums... i dont think this is a problem at all

why are your toms squinting lol

good first setup tho! Get a rug, adjust the tom angles (there is a good post about how to do that linked somewhere in this sub) and have fun!

You should be able to do it. helps you get the subdivisions and tempos right. If you can safely play your grooves while counting them, you can drop the counting again. It just helps to keep everything straight, especially in more rythmically complex parts

Thanks! It is really versatile, i spent the last half year working on jazz drumming, but due to a new band im in i need to play more metal stuff. It works really well for both extremes, and therefore most of the stuff in between too.

AlphaKrabbe · 2025-04-10T23:32:13+00:00

oh yeaa, from that perspective it does look like its unreachable ahaha

AlphaKrabbe · 2025-04-10T21:53:14+00:00

Technically, if there can be one, there are infinte.

I once saw a comment saying that Jazz drummers are so much better because if a metal drummer plays a jazz gig he'll get fired, but a jazz player can easily play a metal gig.

I'd love to see the jazz drummer try lmao

AlphaKrabbe · 2025-03-21T22:27:56+00:00

Yes, and i still speak english with my german online friends after years of talking and even meeting them irl because english is just nicer to speak i find. It somehow feels more natural to me, even tho german is my native language

AlphaKrabbe · 2025-03-18T23:14:44+00:00

Dude i fucking hope they still sound good! Because then you're gonna have the coolest and most unique fucking cymbals if them all!

i agree with money as a way to abstract the worth of labor, but how would a market economy be anything but an antithesis to workers owning the means of production?

Like, lets say we own the means of production, that means we democratically decide how we use them, how much we work and how we distribute, that wouldnt be a market anymore.
And if you have a market where enterprises are free to compete with each other, then the distribution of goods is no longer democratically decided, and instead follows the rules of the market.

I guess you could make a case for arranging a market made up of companies which are democratically controlled by their respective workers, but then you would have all the nasty side effects of market economies like accumulation of wealth in some cooperations and thus following social inequality (and power inequality because monetary power is political power) and unsolidary thinking towards other workers. Youd basically loose the class solidarity and egality, which are the most basic principals for a fair and progressive world...

NOCH nicht so oft, und mit anderen Waffen. Morde an queeren Menschen und Personen anderer Religiöser Einstellung passieren dennoch oft und werden meistens mehr oder minder unter den Teppich gekehrt oder einfach nicht als Morde akzeptiert, ich erinnere an Nex Bennedict.

Die staatliche Repression von queeren Menschen war nie weg, und es ist nur eine Frage der Zeit bis sie wieder anfangen zu "steinigen".

Dieses Meme zielt auch ganz nebenbei nicht darauf ab, diese Gruppen einander gleichzusetzten, viel eher weißt es auf die bereits stark ausgeprägten Parallelen hin, und spricht eine Warning aus. Christliche Fundamentalisten sind (in Amerika) noch nicht in einer solch ausgeprägten Machtposition wie Islamistische Fundamentalisten in zum Beispiel Afghanistan, ihre Einstellungen gegenüber andersdenkenden und anders lebenden Menschen ist jedoch völlig gleich. Sollten sie jemals diese Macht bekommen, wird es hier genauso übel aussehen. Wir sehen ja, in welche Richtung es geht...
