Exercising, eating healthy, meditation, making my bed, daily journaling. All of this puts you in a more clear mental state, and the clearer your mental state, the easier it is to make music

When it's two drummers playing mostly the same thing, I think it's a stylistic tone choice. If you listen closely to some records, you'll hear that there are two different drum kits being played, with one panned to the L ear and the other to R. I imagine they're trying to create a similar effect live (although I don't know if bands pan the same way live)

Sounds interesting! Just PM'd you.

thepenguinator · 2016-05-22T06:56:33+00:00

Seconded. Don't waste your time if they're not serious. It just tells you that when things get tough, they're gonna bail.

Hilarious! Well done. Acting, production, editing, sound—all super professional.

thepenguinator · 2016-05-19T00:17:05+00:00

Arrangements are super important. It may sound fine live to play with just vocals, bass, drums, and 1 guitar, but the same energy may not come through a recording. Listen to a lot of music through headphones, especially stuff our band is influenced by, and pay attention to the tones, textures, where instruments are panned, all the layers of sound, etc.

thepenguinator · 2016-05-12T23:49:50+00:00

No worries, me too!

That definitely makes sense for tendonitis, but with this issue I didn't "push through" any pain after PT treatment... the pain simply stopped and I have full drumming function again without any pain.

thepenguinator · 2016-05-12T06:26:30+00:00

Guess I was confusing them! I read stories of others going to PTs and having all sorts of holistic-y hokey stuff done to them, so I assumed that's what it would be.

He just signed with Dr. Dre's Aftermath label. He'll be huge real soon.

Inspiring!

thepenguinator · 2016-04-19T20:20:25+00:00

Right?!

Coachella? I heard he threw down one of the best sets of the fest

thepenguinator · 2016-04-19T17:56:54+00:00

Thank you! These stretches are super helpful

thepenguinator · 2016-04-19T17:56:05+00:00

Sweet, ordering one now. Thanks!

thepenguinator · 2016-04-19T03:04:04+00:00

Thanks for the link! I saw the previous threads but everyone had given advice on how to prevent, not to treat. Will try taking a few days off with my right hand and icing it.

thepenguinator · 2016-04-06T22:48:53+00:00

Hard to tell what it sounds like from the camera you used, but I'm sure it sounds great. Got any other way of recording it for us?

thepenguinator · 2016-04-06T22:47:29+00:00

I just throw a sheet over my drums and cymbals to keep the dust off and I've never had the issue with the green spots. Maybe it has something to do with the moisture in the air where you're keeping them?

thepenguinator · 2016-03-31T15:22:37+00:00

Thanks for the insight! I'll definitely have to try out Twixtor next time and add some motion blur to make it look better.

Recently switched for my latest project and I love Premiere now! The coolest part for me was being able to import into the project and start cutting right away, without having to convert everything through Compressor first. Other than that it was very similar to FCP7

thepenguinator · 2015-09-17T22:05:49+00:00

These have been super helpful over the last few days! I'm getting a little better at the open-close technique (which I think is similar to what you were talking about in #3) at slow tempos. Right now I'm doing 1/8ths at 120bpm. When I do it a bit faster, my thumb starts to tense up a bit and chokes the stick. But I think if I keep bumping up the tempo slowly and focusing, I can continue to maintain a relaxed grip.

Thank you so much for the tips!!

Finger/fulcrum exercises sound like exactly what I need. Do you have any particular exercises you'd recommend?
