Gave myself a little project yesterday to spice up the holidays inspired by rdavidr's snom build video. I don't have a snom (yet), but found these old roto toms and thought they'd sound cool on this track with a bit of 80's gated reverb!
Thanks to TJHartmandrums for the incredible track.
Check his performance here (with roto toms and snom!)

1970's Pearl Wood Fibreglass Drums - Steely Dan "I Got the News" Drum Cover by Tom Gordon
Переглядів 452Рік тому
My version of Steely Dan's "I Got the News" inspired by the great drummer Ed Greene from the classic album "Aja". Using and old set of 1970's Pearl Wood-Fibrelass drums paired with a Yamaha Stage Custom steel snare with a cut out old snare skin placed on top to deaden/lower the tone. Mixture of Bosphorus/Zildjian/Istanbul and Paiste Cymbals.

My cover of Peg, inspired by Rick Marotta's playing on the classic Steely Dan album "Aja". Also trying out my newest snare - Yamaha Stage Custom 6.5 inch steel shell, and seeing how it matches up to my old faithful Ludwig 402.

Max by Andew Tween
Переглядів 2813 роки тому
A solo drum piece from Trinity Guildhall 2007-2011 syllabus by Andrew Tween. It's a tribute to Max Roach and only grade 6. In my opinion it's more like grade 8 as it's quite the challenge to play properly. Got my old Slingerlands out for the bebop vibes...If you want to have a go, you can get the music here: www.grooveworld.co.uk

    Very nice! Right in with the track all the way through, and you're the first person I've heard get that 5-stroke roll into the an-of-one at the start of the sax solo. I remember when I first heard Weckl play that figure, I nearly died...

      Yes. This is the first of 2 drums. The other is still on my workbench. It will be in black pearl with a lower tuning and floor tom legs added. A snom (snare tom hybrid!). Video will be uploaded when I'm done.
