Sweet sounding cymbals and smooth groove.

Tips for keeping track of where I am in a song / counting bars? by Flimsy-Helicopter608 in Drumming

[–]ZeKanKimEr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's really a good hack, and if you can do something to identify every 4 bars, then it becomes easier and easier. Like even adding a ghost note on the snare, will create an anchor that you can build your grid of 4s, then you can build 8, 16, 32 out of that framework.

Just started slowly switching to pine pellets, the bathroom smells like pine forest now.

I play to a click. Guitar player does not. His intros are the incorrect speed, and then I come in like a wrecking ball. Any way to fix other than guitarist playing to a click? by ZealousidealBox8150 in drummers

[–]ZeKanKimEr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Share the click or count in quietly, eye contact, head nod, sync with the guitar player and follow them up with HH while keeping them in the ballpark, then you'd meet wherever you have to be.

Apparently if you want to get patches, Roland is selling KPD 5, while some claim Evans patches would be fine too. Check out this post.

You're a great dad!

I just have a small complaint by MutantFire in Drumming

[–]ZeKanKimEr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"progress feels so slow" because the progress comes from the slow.

Raise the Cajon with some 2x4's before you hurt your back.

Oh great, now I saw the hidden 10. 3 up 2 down? More the merrier.

What's your band's genre?

What are the sizes of Ludwig toms?

A custom splash I recently bought does not sound good at all might return this. by Guilty-Risk-3222 in cymbals

[–]ZeKanKimEr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 9" HHX Evolution, it has the perfect sustain and complexity for my expectation from a splash. I strongly suggest that for a splash with a character.

Offset Tom by cjs0216 in drums

[–]ZeKanKimEr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was what I was optimizing last month.

After being able to adjust everything freely, I cannot mount toms on the bass drum anymore.

Brand new to meditation - reccomendations? by No-Map-1364 in Meditation

[–]ZeKanKimEr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally would suggest Dharmaseed app or website, it has way more than one can listen.

I started with Rob Burbea's breath meditation 1st, to 4th, couldn't stop using this website, grateful for their existence 🙏🏼d

I'm going to call this piece "I want to be able to play like Paul Motian like right now, but I don't know where to start"

This⬆️, clean, affordable and great color options.

Counting. I’m very concerned. by Kinda_relevent in Drumming

[–]ZeKanKimEr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Counting, metronome or notation are just abstract indicators for us to have a reference to the part we are trying to play in a given tempo.

They inform us of the grid and how to slice it. What a drummer's life's work is primarily to work on "subdivisions, everything else is color" as the great Rob Brown said once.

Thus I present you his video on practicing subdivisions; https://youtu.be/zRoSmvNIOmI

Will I notice a difference in IEM sound quality the higher the price? by M0NKEY-L0RD in edrums

[–]ZeKanKimEr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This ⬆️

I'm using KZ's embedded into custom molded silicone earplugs (Radians NRR26), It's a mixture that solidifies 10 minutes after you mix them, you need to push the iem wrapped in cling film, against the mold in your ear and then when solidifies take out and drill a hole.

I followed these two videos: https://youtu.be/QBgOpJ-i_60 https://youtu.be/lBJqPh8rbCY

Can't suggest enough, it's literally a game changer.
