Excited about this being a full channel now, I've never even touched a drum in my life because I suck at any instrument that you give me, even the goddamn flute, but everything that Wade does is great, he somehow makes everything interesting.
@@MrMeeseeksPiano while the algorithm is a large component of success on the website, having a pre existing presence on the platform at least in my viewing is also a pretty good way to get subs quickly (ie when big channels make a secondary channel)
wow this video is such high quality that I was sure this channel would have like 100k subscribers! shame that these new youtubers with awesome production value are so small whilst these low effort channels that only look at broken iPods get so big! 10/10 video The Drum Thing!
At this rate we might even get a gameplay channel and I'm all down for it, you could make a channel about rocks or life insurance and somehow find a way to make it interesting.
I'm a Straight-Dude and As Silly, As this sounds... I Enjoy watching, On UA-cam: Cute KR and Atomic Keerati! :D Maybe, Someone should supply these Cutie-Pies, With some, Far-Out, Striptease- Music, Style, Drum-Beats, Like, Let There Be Drums - Sandy Nelson(Also, On UA-cam)! :D
In my experience dirty cymbals just sound more muted and darker. I don't think a pattern of grime would make a huge difference aside from more grime = less highs and sustain.
@@Zadamanim tap a mug's circumference, it's higher pitched among one axis and lower among another because of the mass imbalance. Something similar could happen with cymbals
@@crackedemerald4930 The layer of grime on a cymbal generally doesnt account for much of it's mass. It fills in the tiny tonal grooves which are responsible for the richer sound with more overtones. You could maybe give it a gong-like effect (kind of a wah-type sound where the highs come in after the initial hit) by darkening just the center where the stick hits. It may not be noticable on a cymbal that's smaller than a gong because the large mass is what causes it to not resonate all at once.
best cymbal cleaner I've found is 'Twinkle Copper Cleaner'. It is a non-abrasive cream. Just wash off your cymbal with hot water..enough to get the metal warmed up. Then apply the Twinkle with the supplied foam applicator evenly on the surface of the metal. Leave it on for a few minutes, then softly wipe with the foam applicator ('with the grain' in the case of lathed cymbals like Zildjian A's), rinse off with hot water to completely remove the Twinkle material, then wipe dry with a soft clean cloth. Repeat the process if needed to get stubborn finger marks or oxidation off. Since the Twinkle does not require scrubbing (like Brasso or similar products), the manufacturers printed logos will not be removed (after many cleanings the logos may get a bit faded). 'Twinkle' works well on all brass/bronze cymbals whether they are the sheet 'B8' type or higher end 'B20' cast type. Just make sure to get the copper cleaner because they do make a silver cleaner as well.
Something I learned from an old drummer: KETCHUP works BEAUTIFULLY to clean tarnish off of cymbals, polish them, AND it’s mild enough that it doesn’t damage the logos, just apply enough to coat the entire cymbal, let it sit for 10-15 minutes for the acids to do their job, and then wash the ketchup off.
Greetings to ye new channel. Still find the shiny boi with DINGUS funny. The NyangoStar on the beginning was fun to learn about too with how fast some guy in a mascot suit was hitting those drums like wow
Also brightens up the sound of them. I always polished my cymbals. The look better and sound glassier. That is, if you are going for that kind of sound/look.
I really like how crisp they sound when cleaned. I also like the bling personally. I have a set of 60 year old Avedis 15 inch high hats that really cleaned up well and sound amazing now. They sounded very muted and flat before getting cleaned.
That tape thing where he only cleaned half of the symbol was cool! I remember my old iPod used to get so dirty… maybe he could do one of those to show how dirty they can get (or even just how to clean it)
The easiest and fastest way to clean non coated cymbals is with Lysol toilet bowl cleaner. It works in seconds with no heavy scrubbing and at $2.50 bottle Canadian nothing is cheaper. It's basically hydro chloric acid with animal fat for a thickener which is great because the product stays on the cymbal during cleaning. After applying snd cymbal is clean, put some Dawn dish detergent on the cymbal to help dissipate the fat and boom super clean, bright cymbals. I learned this trick from an old friend who tuned and overhauled acoustic pianos with lots of brass hinges. Be sure and get the "original Lysol" in the dark blue bottle.
yo dankpods (idk your name so im gonna call you dankpods lol), i just wanna say that I am so happy to where you have gotten, its been so nice to see a genuine nice youtuber grow from the ground up. Just know that me (and more people like me) will sub and watch any of the videos you make lol
Ages ago when I still played drums, I had bought the official Zildjian cymbal cleaner and it worked but it felt like it needed way more elbow grease to compensate. Brasso just seemed too harsh though.
The only problem when you clean cymbals is you pull the protective coating off which then allows the cymbal to corrode easier. Things that heart cymbals are grease from your hands, weather etc.
This guy is pretty cool, he should start another channel dedicated to portable music players, and headphones.
He should starting channel about pet snake as well
i wonder if he has a patreon called “the after show”
@@sparklebailey_ that seems like a pretty cool concept, he should start one!
He also should start a channel where he mostly uses samples from the Simpsons to make music tracks!
that'd be a pretty dank idea
Excited about this being a full channel now, been doing drums for 9 years and these videos are so fun to me
Excited about this being a full channel now, I've almost never played the drums except at school but they look fun and these videos are great

Excited about this being a full channel now, i play guitar and not drums altho id like to try some day, and these videos are so fun
Excited about this being a full channel now,my dad been doing drums for 3 years, especially egg one.
I love how a "excited about this being a full channel now" cult has started
It took eight hours for this channel to get over 30K subs, this just shows how supportive this community really is
At 70k on day 2 lol
nah, it shows how UA-cam wants this channel to succeed. If It wasn't for the algorithm, it would be dead like 99% of the people who try

It's so bullshit. Like some dude in a garage fixing cars gets tons of views and drums get nothing.
It's outrageous, it's unfair
he has 100k subs now x)
@@JohnMarstonfromRdr2Take a SEAT, young Marston
Im actually amazed how much content this man can extract from cymbals
one idea would be to scan the logo and then make a template to paint them back on once they are polished
Hello, to the new age of drum videos.
I hope these continue!
At this rate we might even get a gameplay channel and I'm all down for it, you could make a channel about rocks or life insurance and somehow find a way to make it interesting.
The 1-Grit is already the star of DankPods

@@triPixel introducing DankInsurance™: the only insurance company that supports potheads!
I don’t even play drums anymore but this is just enjoyable to watch and listen to
The instant you started on fancy cleaners I knew the Brasso was coming out.
Legit that sticker idea to make logos on the cymbal is something I totally want to do now!
Okay, so, if cleaning cymbals change how they sound.... is there a pattern of grime (or for that matter, enamel) that could make really unique sounds?
In my experience dirty cymbals just sound more muted and darker. I don't think a pattern of grime would make a huge difference aside from more grime = less highs and sustain.

Ah, Drum Thing. Another fine addition to the DankPods Cinematic Universe.
Oh thank you for reuploading the old videos! Now I have something to binge!
This channel is as fascinating and entertaining as the others. Keep it up!
this channel is slowly capturing the feeling of 2010 youtube, just straight nostalgia

kind of makes sense. Its basically vinegar paste though really not that mild. Put baking soda in ketchup and you get ketchup volcano
Dude, I work at a music shop and Im not a drummer but I have to constantly work on used kits. This was like genuinely helpful.
I guess now we have to add the Dingus Cymbal to the cast.
yaaaay I get to rewatch all of these vids despite knowing bugger all about drums but Wade is too goshdang entertaining!
Woaw! Glad you can finally make more videos!
The dingus cymbal,
Greatest invention since the one grit itself
Can't watch to see the upcoming videos in this channel ❤️
Deja Vu; I thought I saw this before and once I saw the stickers I KNEW I did.
every time i see sabian stuff i get so proud that there's something Actually Good coming out of new brunswick
Just want to mark my spot… I subscribed to “The Drum Thing” at 6.86k subscribers. Looking forward to the future :)
Happy with the new channel
Greetings to ye new channel. Still find the shiny boi with DINGUS funny. The NyangoStar on the beginning was fun to learn about too with how fast some guy in a mascot suit was hitting those drums like wow
Man I’m hyped for this channel
Hi Wade! I love these non-dankpod videos!
New Drum thing video just dropped and now i’m addicted
very fine choice of words to end off the video
The stickers look really cool!
Also brightens up the sound of them. I always polished my cymbals. The look better and sound glassier. That is, if you are going for that kind of sound/look.
I'm Canadian and therefore know someone that works at Sabian, I'll tell them to give you a ring mate 🥁🤘
I really want to see you using the cleaning with ketchup method next, trust me it is a real thing
I really like how crisp they sound when cleaned. I also like the bling personally. I have a set of 60 year old Avedis 15 inch high hats that really cleaned up well and sound amazing now. They sounded very muted and flat before getting cleaned.
I like this new guy
He's only been posting for like 3 days but his quality seems like he's been doing it for years
He has @dankpods
The man who opens nuggets gloved up but washes his hands with brasso
I'm not even a drummer, but your videos are the most entertaining.
Such short videos but they make my day XD
was in my high school's winter drumline as a member of the cymbal line; can confirm, brasso will melt your fingernails off
I have no interest in cymbals or drums, but for some reason I still binge your channel. How are you so damn interesting to watch and listen bro
HazelShould vibes with the carpet background
I just chuck mine in the washer. They come out good as new and they make lovely music in the tumbler as they dry 👍
This is therapeutic & satisfying
This guy is so funny I'd watch anything he put up!
you are the only person with 3 channels i respect
The dingus symbol is gonna become a collectors item in 70 years. I bet
Ah yes, first a iPod touch engraved with "dingus", now a cymbal engraved with "D I N G U S".
i never knew dankpods had another channel
What gives people feelings of power:
Fame
Money
Power
Having watched the original upload.
Barkeepers friend works great. Clean with a circular motion following in the grooves.
I would be interested in a sound test before/after cleaning, if you ever do this again.
New channel new nugget cymbals
I'm kinda disappointed we didn't get to hear the dingus-branded one. :V

i’m 30 seconds in, and now i have an ebay tab open for cymbals.
thank you for this
Now i want to mount a crash on my wall that just reads " ✨DINGUS ✨"
This guy seems pretty cool, he should start a channel around headphones, and cars
what's this guy's main channel? i keep seeing everyone say this
@@AhrkFinTey DankPods (is that the main one? idk.)

Dingus is a fantastic cymbal name. I shall now refer to all cymbal bells as the dingus part.
Dingus is the sound of a cymbal crash.
This is an amazing channel for 200 subs! 😂

mate, just chuck 'em all in the dishwasher!
Time to get some old mate Brasso to clean my cymbals.
Unbreakable Patches cleans cymbals the video
Hello dank mate
Real Gs remember when this video was on the main channel lmao
0:03 all electric drum players “visible confusion”
I'd probably buy a "DINGUS" cymbal, even though i don't own and other drum stuff.
Probably hang it as art on a wall like some people do vinyls.
Im excited to be so early to this channel!!
Now Wade has a third channel he can use as an excuse to Chashies!
Woah 20k subs in 3hours!
now i can be entertained by three Aussie men
Great vid! I would love to have heard the sound cleaned vs non-cleaned, does it change in any way?
Best minute and 45 seconds I’ve seen
wooo love the new name
Should've done a before and after of the sound
I live about a 30 minute drive from the Sabian factory here in Canada. Want me to drop in, tell them what's what?
We playing drums with the dingus cymbal
New wade dingus channel
Bar Keepers Friend doe a great job as well, they have a liquid formula now
I absolutely refuse to clean my cymbals lol
wow amazing
I've been drumming for 60 years and NOTHING is better than Brasso.
This guy is amazing, would be amazing if he had a channel with Simpsons stuff
Okay, so what if you coated the logos in clear nail polish before you hit it with the brasso?
UA-cam compression was no match for that shiny cymbal
Woahhh mate, you sound just like that dankpods bro
POV you're re-watching all these videos again to give Wade higher hits in the algorithm
Mate, 6 uploads in a day??? How will the lad keep this pace up??!?!?
Loved this video. Can l, Still, Buy Brasso, Today, ln 2022?
