I really love players like this - you can tell someone is incredibly talented when they can make a kit sound not like a collection of drums and cymbals, but like a single instrument made of a cohesive cluster of sounds. To use piano as an analogy, beginners assign a series of notes to each finger while playing chopsticks, much like a young drummer assigns a series of drums and cymbals to each limb, whereas a master simply recognizes chords and voicings while playing Chopin and allows their fingers to materialize what is mapped out, as this man does with his drums.

I can't get enough of watching Steve play. He's a melody maker on the drums. Such an amazing musician. I've never enjoyed a cymbal solo as much as this one.

Love the part where he goes, "You could use it as a beech umbrella if you want to." Amazing sounding cymbals! I really like that deep low dark sound from that 26" on his left! Great drums too!
OMG! I have a 26” Zildjian heavy ride I bought a very long time ago: a good bargain as it was a special order that the customer never picked up and the music store was happy to be free of it. It sounds good but has limited applications. I had a teacher who had a Fibes kit in black fivel! Never thought I would hear of one ever again. Easy to keep clean with a vacuum!
I cannot stop laughing cuz at 6:22 youre tapping the ride bells and you have like this ooh expression as you do it and then about 6-7 seconds later you start crashing them and you go immediately into an angry stank face. Its so good hahahaha
Steve, I think that this has now become my most favorite video of you playing. I have a 26" Meinl that I really enjoy playing in all settings, so I do love each and every one of these Zildjian Cymbals. The kit sounds marvelous and the 15x15 sounds really special in the mix. I always enjoy watching your flair at playing. Thanks and Blessings!
The rivet cymbal far right is my favorite overall for pingy ride sound and crashability. For single-purpose riding, the cymbal 2nd from right. I like the nice dry sound that enunciates all strokes, but I wouldn't crash it. But the star of the show is that beautiful 18" bass drum! I really want a drum like that for gigs where there's not enough room.
Wow, I'm pleasantly surprised. I love the hi-hats and the 30" sounded very lovely. I was expecting it to be very washy but with your touch it had such an amazing voice to it. Those cymbals sing beautifully
@@MikeYurbasovich Yeah they are! Greg uses them as high hats and crash cymbals. Somehow he makes it work, but it's not for me that's for sure. I play 13" and am quite happy with them.
Excellent and surpisingly healthy sounding cymbals… The wash has an undeniable strength and mass not present in more pedestrian sizes. Great playing as well!
Really. Thanks for this. Buddy of mine (recently passed away) had a HUGE (heads) kit and cymbals (Zildjan A). His toms were all huge diameter. Sounded like thunder. As he was passing away, I joked with him "Well, it's your fault, you know... It those huge heads and cymbals you played all these years. They did you in, brother." His reply: "y'know I think you're right?.... worth it. Damn I love that kit." Thosecymbals had SO many "zones" I could find on them, versatile.
Thank you, I really like it, I think I have them all, patiently collected through many years of "snuffing" around. The allien I added to the bunch is a Paiste formula 101 flat ride which is a delight to listen to. Beside the snare, I truly believe that a drumkit is mainly... Cimbals. Thanks for the refined and swingy moment. Take care, RC
What a beautiful sound!!!!! Great touch too.... I'm not a jazz fan but from a drummer 's perspective it's the ultimate dream as it frees your talent ....superb technique...
Just love this Steve! I own a 30 1/3" A. Zildjian at 5,896 grams wth plenty of edge wobble. I also have a 30" A. Zildjian China with rivets. The funny thing is that I play 7A sticks which looks ridiculous with these. I wish I still had my 26" 1950s Hollow Stamp A. Zildjian Thin Ride that was almost like a crepe and was more of a warm crash than a ride!
Great drummer too . I didn't know what " dark " sounded like until I acquired a 24" Dream bliss cymbal . I love the sound . Works in contrast with a brighter " rain forest " ride on the kit . Been running 2 rides lately just for this reason.
Very cool!! I always liked the old bigger cymbals because of the bell, I found a 26 in a pawn store once and used for a couple years playing rock/metal. After a while it csacked on the edge and eventually a 3” wide by 4” or so chunk came off it looked like someone took a bite out of the cymbal ! Instead of throwing it away, I let my brother, who was a welder at the time, take it to work, and a machinist put it on a lathe and cut ie down. When it was don, the cymbal was about 17 3/4 “ That thing sounded amazing!! Especially the bell!! I got a lot if compliments on it! I think those large cymbals were used for orchestral applications!
man I would kill just for a mega bell ride and a 14 inch pair of hi hats. already got the Z custom crash but I almost want to trade it in for an A custom. Real talk though I love the swell on those ride cymbals
Billy Cobham • Spectrum. The album opened up into a double album fold out with that legendary clear FIBES double bass drum set. Some things are like the Empire State Building in terms of classic drummer photo history.
I used to own a great Camco drum kit, including a 20" bass, 12" mounted tom, 14" floor tom and 16" floor tom. The snare was a Ludwig Supraphonic 400 chrome steel snare. My favorite ride cymbal was the Zildjian Rock 21 12" heavy ride. It sounded amazing. I played this kit in church for a couple of years, before going off to serve 6 years in the US Marine Corps.
That was fun to watch. It is amazing how good old Zildjian As sound. Perhaps Zildjian changed the profiles to raise their pitch after they purchased the K name?
The hats and that 30" ride sound great..had no idea of ride cymbals that big. Biggest diameter ride cymbals I thought were 22" or maybe 24". Would have to have a really big cymbal bag to haul those babies around.
I saw that look on you, like that was fun ! you look like you had a blast man sometimes you just got to open up and go crazy and run with it that's kind of what you did you change the way you played those big symbols . I believe those big gargantuan symbols affected the way you played,. I think they gave you a spark of energy and it was interesting.nthey are they're pretty cool...... you know for a certain novelty effect . What I found to be the most interesting was how they affected your interaction with the way you approached and attacked the drums.You're Rudimentary and stick tip control is phenomenal ! As a guitar player I can really appreciate that!
Hi I have been playing 50 years both as a pro and later on typ weekengigs. I have always tune the bottom heads a little bit higher. It have always sound great for i allways nearmicking my set. I have allways liked your drumsound. So I tested your way and have the resoheads a bit lover than the tophead. I put my mobilphone about 5 meter out on the floor away from the drums. IT SOUND GREAT. Simon Philips have the same filosofi about how to bring the best sound of your drums. So I take my hat of for you Steve Best regards Christer Palmgren from Sweden
I thought it was all going to fall apart on the 30" - but it didn't. It was actually my favourite. They all sound great. So does Steve (as usual). Very nice post guys!
I’m not surprised at all that my buddy Gary Asher found that beautiful Fibes kit. I think these unique kits are just attracted to Gary and they actually find him first. Enjoyed the video. 👍
It's like I can hear music that isn't there when he is playing. Very musical drummer.
I would hope he plays his instrument in a musical way!!
@@slowfreqsome drummers are plain and don’t have that musicality thought. This guy plays in a unique way

No matter the instrument, when it's on the hands of a true musician, it's like magic.
Watching the technique of these old school guys is inspiring. Makes me want to hop on my kit and try to use it in my own style
I can't get enough of watching Steve play. He's a melody maker on the drums. Such an amazing musician. I've never enjoyed a cymbal solo as much as this one.
That 26" with the rivets has great harmonics and the 30" is surprisingly crisp!!!
Oh yeah. That 30" was surprisingly washy.

True! Loved the 26" with the rivets.
What a sales man!! You can use it for a beach umbrella he says. What a guy, I love these videos
Your timing is godly
That kit sounds amazing.
The second he hit that first kick note I just wanted more. I came for the cymbals, but I left wanting more of that kit.

It’s the ultimate Millennial kit! Tiny little drums and gigantic cymbals.
psh, my 22x22 bass drum I got like 15 years ago begs to differ haha
Lol
Ba ha ha
@Dr.FrankCoco By what parameters “better?”
Hey I resemble that! Picked up 16” hihats for my birthday on Thursday. Love the wash.
Love the part where he goes, "You could use it as a beech umbrella if you want to." Amazing sounding cymbals! I really like that deep low dark sound from that 26" on his left! Great drums too!
Not many drummers that I could sit and listen to just their drumming for hours. You are one. Amazing.
OMG! I have a 26” Zildjian heavy ride I bought a very long time ago: a good bargain as it was a special order that the customer never picked up and the music store was happy to be free of it. It sounds good but has limited applications. I had a teacher who had a Fibes kit in black fivel! Never thought I would hear of one ever again. Easy to keep clean with a vacuum!
The 26" Riveted Cymbal sounds Awesome.
I could listen to your playing for hours!
The subtlety of your playing is amazing. Such brilliant control and deft touch
I love everything about this video
I cannot stop laughing cuz at 6:22 youre tapping the ride bells and you have like this ooh expression as you do it and then about 6-7 seconds later you start crashing them and you go immediately into an angry stank face. Its so good hahahaha
Cymbals have a very cool haunting type of sound to them……Excellent!!!
Always enjoy watching you play, Steve. They do sound good!
agreed!
Me too
This is one of the smoothest guys out there! Very fun watching this

I’ve never seen rides or a pr of hats that large before, I started playing in the sixties. Thanks for sharing!
The only guy I've seen playing hi hats that big is Greg Saunier of the band Deerhoof. He uses them as a crash as well.
@@Darrylizer1I've been not playing for about 10 years, and I couldn't imagine playing cymbals that big. I ran 13" hi hats. 17? That's crash cymbals.
@@MikeYurbasovich Yeah they are! Greg uses them as high hats and crash cymbals. Somehow he makes it work, but it's not for me that's for sure. I play 13" and am quite happy with them.

Thank You Steve for all you give to the world of drumming!
This was really cool. As being a Drummer for over 40 years, I really appreciated this. Very nice.
The drums sound beautiful
once again, your drums could not be tuned more perfect. Can't get enough of the sound coming off those Fibes.
Really. Thanks for this.

I love how menacing the big cymbals are when they vibrate and you can see the metal shaking
Thank you, I really like it, I think I have them all, patiently collected through many years of "snuffing" around.

Now that's what I call a feast of sounds.
Wow, those big ol’ beasts sound amazing. I laughed out loud when he first said 17 inch hi hats but man, these are awesome. That kit sounds great too.
Love the video creation mr Maxwell!
And LOVE the 17 hats (kind of like all the cymbals, but the hats are gold for me)
I love small bass drums, they sound very clear. There is never a lack of low frequencies, you can add as much as you want on the remote.
Check out Istanbul Agop 26 inch cymbals.
The way you navigate the hihat and flow around the kit is truly outstanding. Great drummer
You should try putting both the 26 inch ones on your high hat stand and see what that sounds like
If the hi hat stand doesn’t tip over! 😉
01:47 "Who wants cymbals that big?" ME! I love big pies.
What a beautiful sound!!!!!
Great touch too....
I'm not a jazz fan but from a drummer 's perspective it's the ultimate dream as it frees your talent ....superb technique...
WOW!!! That was Great! Love the kit, the cymbals, your skill, and all your video’s. Thank you many times over!!!😃
I love this sound of cymbals. I miss it in the modern music so much.
Thanks Steve I enjoyed that. They sound very good. I particularly liked the 30", surprisingly enough.

And that drumming is top notch, to say the least!!

.
Thank you for the perspective.
Id mic up the kit good so i can put a stereo mic above everthing so the rides are a strong harmonic.
.
Dear god id LOVE to be in the room listening and watching. MASTERPIECE.

I got a lot if compliments on it!
I think those large cymbals were used for orchestral applications!
Beautiful sounds. Some of it reminded me of the Stan Kenton Orchestra.
You're right as rain about that 30"🤌
I once had 24" A but it never got used,
I gave it away to a youngster with hard and loud ambitions.
I'm sure the cymbal didn't survive very long! 😉
man I would kill just for a mega bell ride and a 14 inch pair of hi hats. already got the Z custom crash but I almost want to trade it in for an A custom.
Real talk though I love the swell on those ride cymbals
Great kit and GREAT CYMBALS!
It's the way you're playing them man!! Brilliant 👏
This Was Amazing! Thanks Steve!!
My Drum teacher was an old classic jazz guy, god rest his soul!!
Lovely sounding kit, thanks for the demo
Gorgeous kit, gorgeous player! Bravo!
Wooow! Sound crisp and harmonious!
That crescendo build up was magnificent!!!!
You were right about that 30". I could see a piano gig. Lol! Jeez, beautiful cymbal.
wow these all sound great, the drums are killing too

Love all those cymbals (didn't know Zildian or anyone made a 30") and the sound of those Fibes. What Steve plays is fabulous. Man, that cat can swing!
He makes it sound so good! Great playing!
towards the end, that face....that satisfying face! pure joy! thanks for sharing your collections.
Those beasts make my 24” Paiste look like a splash! Well done, Maestro 👍
I used to own a great Camco drum kit, including a 20" bass, 12" mounted tom, 14" floor tom and 16" floor tom. The snare was a Ludwig Supraphonic 400 chrome steel snare.

30' Cymbal??!!!😳😳😳 Didn't think they made them that big! The 17' high-hats sounds good!
15" floor toms are often overlooked. 16" can be harder to tune and 14" always sound good but kinda short
I have a Fibes snare from the 60's(?) with no serial number (anywhere!) WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
Loved the sound of the bass drum! And the toms also👌 awesome swing👏
great playing...and great tuning on those drums!
Beautiful! Thx for sharing the fun and the story!
That was fun to watch. It is amazing how good old Zildjian As sound. Perhaps Zildjian changed the profiles to raise their pitch after they purchased the K name?

Wow, those all sound absolutely amazing. You should record samples of these for e-drums.
amazing rides.......thank you to show them.....
“Ping ping ping”😆
I’ve never thought about playing the bottom side of the hihats like that, I got something new to try for band practice!

Is the hi hat bottom super thin and super light? I have an old classic set of these hi hats and the washy sound they have when open can't be beat!
Fantastic demo sounds great.
Steve, You crack me up. Thanks for this video.
Sweet sounding monsters!!!
I thought it was all going to fall apart on the 30" - but it didn't. It was actually my favourite.
They all sound great. So does Steve (as usual). Very nice post guys!
I've always loved the way those big floppy hi-hats looked.
Great sounds too.
That was amazing!!! The drums and the cymbals sound so well together. 10/10 dude!!!
I’m not surprised at all that my buddy Gary Asher found that beautiful Fibes kit. I think these unique kits are just attracted to Gary and they actually find him first. Enjoyed the video. 👍

Such beautiful cymbals! I have a friend with a 30, and I absolutely love it.
Cool soind
