SNARE HIHAT BASSDRUM
Setting Up Vintage Ludwig Drums,The Holy Grail of Drums! (if you like 70s music) #snhhbd
I do "One Take Drum Covers" of Songs that have iconic drum beats.
I grew up in the Canadian prairies in the 80s listening to Van Halen, Iron Maiden, and Rush. Back then, there was fierce loyalty and pride associated with the band T-shirts you wore in public. Meanwhile, I was learning to play the drums, and I tuned into the likes of Lars, Charlie Benante, Dave Weckyl, Jeff Porcaro, and Jack DeJohnette trying to expand my drumming horizons.
After high school, I played over 2000 gigs across Canada and the United States, opening for bands of all sizes. Fast forward to 2024, my wife and I became empty nesters with some free time on my hands. That's when I decided to get back into drumming, and started the @snare.hihat.bassdrum YouTube channel.
I don't claim to be perfect and you will hear some mistakes here and there. This is live raw videos of me drumming to my favorite songs, some will be better than others, If I can just capture the pocket and get the feel, even briefly I call it a win. Theres no better feeling than sitting in a drum pocket and everything hits.
Latest Videos...
Note: I record songs in only one take without any tricks like post-production editing, quantizing or locking to click tracks. I'm all about capturing the feel that made me like that song in the first place and finding the drum pocket. And yes, there will be a couple of mistakes here and there, but just keep going and get back in the pocket like it's a live show. Wish me luck! Fingers crossed!
