Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 сер 2011
- Kirkee B (a.k.a. Curt Bisquera) and Thomas Lang (a.k.a. The Druminator) bring you "Candyland III". Join them as they tour our jam-packed showroom here at the Workshop in sunny Oxnard, CA. Thomas let's loose his virtuoso style with 10 fresh kits, many of which are new offerings (such as Collector's Series Maple/Mahogany, Performance FinishPly, and PDP American Vintage), and few prototypes we can't talk much about.
It's just over a Half-Hour of DW Bliss, so get comfy, hook up to some good speakers, or plug in your best headphones/earbuds, and enjoy!
We HIGHLY RECOMMEND you watch this in as high a quality as you can stream or stand to buffer (both for sound and video optimization).

It would be nice to see Thomas Lang show off DW's new products in candy land every year. If nothing's changed, show a sweet finish.
I am not a materialist but , If I was wealthy , I would have that one guilty pleasure and it would be to have way too many drum kits,probably 20 or some thing like that.What about you ,how many kits would you have if cash was no object?
To be real, Thomas Lang *is* the Arnold of drumming
We can only hope that DW makes it into every child's heart. :)
You certainly made it into my heart with the Design Series.
@@davidmcaninch4714 How's it sound man?
@@landonpeckham7752 incredible all the way!!!
@@landonpeckham7752 All design series sound pretty good despite being the starter series, it's as good for pro musicians as any other good quality kit.
Thanks we appreciate it! Thomas displays all kinds of his styles of play in this video!
after seeing them all im set on the first kit so beautiful in color and sound

Wow!!! 😀 I love the druminator.
My all time favorite drummer and a heck of a nice guy too.
Wanted to know what kind of hoops are fitted to these amazing and highly desirable DW kits?
Hello tyubacka, our Collector's Series Kits come standard with True Hoops. Here is a link with some information. Thanks. www.dwdrums.com/snares/features.asp
Does any one else find it odd that Thomas Lang is playing these tiny kits it’s kinda funny lookin lol
Not at all ,I find it refreshing.
We can't wait to make you a kit! We so appreciate you saving your money to purchase DW drums!
Basti! We understand you perfectly and we are humbled by your kind words! Thanks so much!
"And Kirkee B" at 26:00 pretty funny..Notice how Lang's kit has Remo heads..sounds so much better than stock heads
That M/M kit at 1:09 sounds amazing!
***** I liked it so much I bought a new kit in maple/mahogany last year!
So great to hear your DW kit is going well for you! We wish you many more great sessions. Love and Peace from CA!!
Thank you guys so much for doing these Candyland videos too! Also I think it's cool just how passionate you guys are about drums and how friendly you guys are, responding to so many people on UA-cam.
Awesomeness 100%, get to the Choppa
32 people didn't stick around for the finale', Otherwise there is no way they'd have given this a thumbs down!
This is easily the greatest drum video I have ever seen, You learn something new everytime you see it!! Thomas insane monster talent
Thanks so much! We are very happy to hear you enjoyed this video. We do have many great people here doing great work.
We love your enthusiasm! Thanks!
All too often I see promotional videos of drum kits in which the drummer is not utilizing the “kit”. The drummer is primarily playing beats that are on the ride/hi-hats, snare and kick. In this video he did the kits justice by playing all the drums so we the viewers can hear and see the real drum kit. Bravo gentlemen and Mr. Lang for a promotional video of drum kits as it should be. It does help that he is an amazing multi genre drummer. Thank You !!
This is absolutely the best, most fun drum adventure!!
The best half an hour that any drummer can actually enjoy, now i know that this drums are made by great people... this is the Ferrari of drums and i want one really bad!
Well that's not such a bad thing! Thanks so much for choosing the Performance Series!
Thanks for asking! The heads on the first kit in the Powder Blue finish are our DW Remo Coated style heads.
Thanks for asking! That is our Powder Blue Lacquer! You hit it right on the button!
Whenever i am upset i always come and watch this video just to hear dw's beautiful drums. Thanks DW!
Thanks so much and thanks for watching!
Thanks! We love this!
Good to hear you are liking it! Thanks!
Well thank you very much! We work hard to keep this nice looking figure of our finishes for you. :)
Glad you are liking it. The Maple/Mahogany shells have gotten a good response.
Thank you! You guys are awesome!
Nice choices! Thanks for liking them!
damn! you guys really are the drummers choice! and so professional and curtious replying back on your channel...thank you so much!
Thanks and we are sure Thomas appreciates it, too!
Awesome thanks so much! We are happy you are happy! Enjoy and thanks for being a part of the DW family!
Recently bought a 10, 12, 14, 16, 22 in Blue Strata Finish Ply from the Wembley Drum Centre in London, you've made me a very happy man. What a sound. Thank you, sincerely.
He's not necessarily a small or big man but not so medium. Really he's a super hero of drumming. :) If you are ever out in the Southern, CA area come on out! Tours are almost every Thursday at 2 pm.
We are working on it for sure! Thanks so much for watching and your feedback. More videos in the works we promise. :)
They are so good!
We want you to have DW!! Thanks!
@persini We have gotten a lot of good feedback from that particular kit. It is a Maple/Mahogany with a Powder Blue Lacquer Specialty finish. Have a great weekend and thanks for watching!
Thanks to that dvd i can watch this wherever i go!! Thanks dw i love you!!!!
The second drum kit is amazing. I love it.
Glad you made it by!
I've seen this video about 10 times (?), and still love every second. I also love that 1st kit, and the Thomas Lang signature kit.
It's refreshing to see Thomas play those small 4 piece kits . That twisted wood kit is the sound that sings to my ears.
Great point! Kirkee B is a natural on camera and when he's around here he always has everyone cracking up. Abe is a very jolly guy also. :)
@JoshTinkler in all seriousness, this means the world to us. Your passion fuels ours. Thank you.
Thanks so much and thanks for watching! We are tooling up for a new video in this Candyland Series and we are definitely planning on having a birch kit in the showroom for it. Coming soon!
@DrumWorkshopInc It's twisted olive with black fade, and I'm working with two 20" kicks, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18" toms, and matching snare. And it's the most beautiful drum kit I've ever laid eyes on. You guys made it for me last year, I think it might have been the first kit to leave the factory with VLX Plus kicks. Looks aren't all, the sound is unmatched. Thanks for being in the DW family? Thank YOU for making me a part of it!!!!
Thanks so much! We NEED to get you that Candyland 4!! In the works we promise!
you know dw cares for the customer, after months i return to this video and they still be replying to potential buyers' questions, heck even just the curious. Hats off to Dee doubleya
Thanks guys! Zoom mic does the trick!
@rjproud Great question! Low mic level with the general limiter on. Using the stereo pair and recording on AIF files at 48k and 24 bits. Sounds like a lot but pretty standard. It is a really easy mic to work with. They are also really good for recording writing sessions and rehearsals with your band. Thanks!!
thomas lang has a way of doing these drums justice. Phenomenal video, drums are even better. Kudos
@TheDrHopeless Thanks for your comments! We do have many great people putting their hear and soul into making our drums and hardware.
Thanks very much! Thomas throws down on that kit...and every other one also. :)
For the Collector's Series we only offer round turret style for bass drums and toms. We do offer tube lugs for snares as an option though. Beyond that the lugs are specific to each line of drum.
Nice! We are happy to hear you are liking the sound of the Maple/Mahogany. The lead time for kits depends on the finish type. Orders are taking about 3-4 months to completer generally right now.
best demo vid EVER!!! hands down!
I love how on the few kits, he was just chillin, then after a while he went all out. beastly
On a more positive note, thank you for such an personal video and inside look! I'm sure we all look forward to seeing where this company goes in the future
Well it depends on which kit you are asking about. All heads you see are made by Remo for us. They are a combination of Coated Clear(with the ring), Coated(for toms and snares) and are all options for our kits straight from the factory here.
ASAP! Working through some new vids and then we're hoping for the next version of Candyland!
Doing our best for a summer launch! Thanks for asking!
@ebyjon You are so welcome! Thanks for your positive feedback and being a part of the DW family. :) Nice size choices for your kit.
We are here for you when you are ready! We really appreciate your support already!
Very cool video. Enjoy watching Thomas playing and the beautiful drum kits. Haha
Thanks very much! Always feel free to get back to us with any questions before you order your DW kit. :)
Hey there! We love your beautiful country and it's people! Thanks so much for liking our drums!
when i went it was the most amazing sight ever!! defiantly need to go again
We would never judge!:) Thanks for watching! Thomas definitely shows his versatility and pocket on these smaller set ups.
A drum educated, funny smart man! He's the nicest guy all the time!
We recorded the dialog with the camera mic. The drums were recorded with a Zoom mic in the H4N model. We find it is the rawest way to capture the drums in a room setting. Making the listener have the truest experience of actually listening in the room.
@cuznred Thanks for watching and liking the sound! We are here for you when you are ready. :)
@DwarvenDrummer Thanks so much for your suggestions! We are getting to work on some more unique drums and sizes. Thanks for watching!
I have one of those Piccolo toms...an 8" and my new band LOVES that thing as much as I do. It sounds great high and the rimshot is outstanding! Best part of my kit actually!
Glad you are liking it!
We love our fans and customers!
Thanks! Glad you are liking the sound. It is a 18x23!
Curt did great work on that album for sure! He's has been doing it for years and continues to better himself with his projects and his work with the artists that choose him!
Super good!
Bittersweet story with you for sure. We are happy to have you back liking the video and the liking the Maple/Mahogany sound. :)
I've been using a PDP FS series kit for about 3 years now and I absolutely love it....can't wait to upgrade to a full blown DW kit soon!
Just one of many!
Thanks for asking! The Performance Series is not customizable like the Collector's Series. This is what sets the price difference between the 2 series. With the Performance Series you have set sizes and finishes while the Collector's Series you can get any size and finish we offer with different hardware color options. The Performance Series has its own shell technology with the HVX which is not offered for the Collector's making especially unique to itself. Both series are made in our...
He's awesome!! Everyone at DW is passionate about drums. That's why I'm saving up as we speak!!
And there you go!
Ugh, these kits are so amazing. I'm very excited for Candy land 4, especially after seeing the video of DW at NAMM.
