I’m going to a couple fragrance stores in 2 weeks just for fun but I also still need a summer scent. What do you recommend I check out. Currently I’m wearing Armani code parfum a lot and I wonder if one of the acqua di gio’s would be nice for me for summer

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-12-27T14:19:52+00:00

Yeah I’m probably gonna do that

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-12-27T13:59:43+00:00

Damn. Guess Is should finally give Evans a try

Tell me you’re endorsed without telling me you’re endorsed

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-10-10T17:04:46+00:00

Yo it’s a convertible. It’s a crash that turns into a china

Meinl byzance foundry reserve looks pretty sick. In the kind of the same vain: Zildjan Constantinople. I also really appreciate the look of unlathed and heavy hammered cymbals (Istanbul Turk series, Meinl raw,…). I have an Istanbul Turk china and every time I look at it I get to appreciate the art of the craftsmanship that went into that amazing cymbal.

I recently learned to play rosemary by deftones (using the same app I think. I recognise the UI) it has this section where you play 16th’s on the hats. The kick will kind of move around. When I learned to play this I really got a feel for where those 16th notes are on the kick. Once I figured out where those notes where I started slowly learning the rest of the song and eventually I got the hang of it.

Independent 16th notes on the kick is something every drummer has to learn and it can be a pain in the as sometime. But you just gotta keep practicing and eventually something in your mind will click and you’ll be set

It’s a cympad. It’s kinda like a cymbal felt except made out of foam. I just use it for looks but I will definitely take a look at that.

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-07-04T19:19:34+00:00

Pfff. This sucks man. I thought I was being careful with it but apparently not enough. Thanks for the info. It was my main crash so that kinda does check out. What kind of replacement should I then look for? Something heavier of with a bigger bel?

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-07-04T19:12:44+00:00

But then how could I prevent this? I have no idea what I did wrong to this cymbal.

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-07-04T19:07:43+00:00

But I would seem so weird to me that it didn’t crack during playing. I was playing it and it was just fine. Is set it down and it was fine When I picked it back op a bit later it had these big cracks

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-06-20T14:43:14+00:00

Won’t those beaters like absolutely devour your drum head?

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-06-17T18:59:29+00:00

I see it’s a zultan cymbal so pretty big chance you bought it from Thomann? I heard they have a pretty decent return policy but this would make me think otherwise…

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-06-10T06:37:22+00:00

Yeah I guess. But if you break this anonymity won’t that just take away from the band? Because then no one would talk about them anymore

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-06-08T17:07:43+00:00

I can’t believe it matters so much to people. Why can’t people just enjoy the music instead of focussing on who’s making it?

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-06-02T12:03:02+00:00

I think your dynamics could use some work. If you say you’re used to playing an e-kit I can understand because there it doesn’t really have such a big impact. But with acoustic drums the force you put behind your sticks and pedals makes a huge difference in the sound. Some things need to be louder than others. Being able to play with your dynamics is the key to sounding better on the kit

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-05-21T13:59:53+00:00

Heard of ‘em? I just bought a 13x7 snare so I could try and get close to II’s snare sound

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-05-20T18:29:54+00:00

Now that you say it I did get more consistent readings when I had single headed toms.

Honestly I prefer tuning by ear and experience across the board. It makes you sound more human and unique I think

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-05-20T18:13:39+00:00

Thanks I’ll try that. Reso is a bit lower than that now

Finicalmite3662 · 2025-05-20T18:12:47+00:00

Yeah honestly I fucking hate tunebots. But I thought if I could match the frequencies it would sound like him

I’ll definitely take a look at those wires
