0:00 - 17" Square Hihats
3:15 - 24" Jupiter Ride & 10" Jupiter Cup Chime
5:23 - 24" Multi-Bell, 12" Spoxe, 6" Cast, & 3.5" Heavy Flat Disk
6:58 - 24" Cross China
8:14 - 21.5" Neptune
Yup, even MORE wierd cymbals. These all come from GM Designs Cymbals. Our conversation started out with the idea of making a set of square hihats like the ones Sabian used to make. I realized that finding a set of the square sabian hihats would basically be impossible so I asked GMD to make a set. After that they thought it would be cool to send some more of their crazy cymbals! If you are looking for a unique sound for your kit, GMD most likely has something for you. Whether its an effects cymbal or just an odd ball take on a "normal" cymbal.
The WEIRDEST Cymbals On The Internet
What weird cymbals should I play next? 🤔
spherical cymbal
Milk cymbal
Milk
Worlds largest cymbal
Stagg 30inch DH Super Ride
That ride bell is great hahaha! damn
crazy how buried this comment is considering its from 66Samus himself
These were all appropriately nuts. Your little dubbed groove with the various chimes and discs was spiffy. I was wincing as you laid into the cross china, it looks as fragile as Axl Rose's ego 🤣the three trashy cymbals sounded so good together, just butter on toast. Great content yet again man, thanks!
I was gonna leave a comment but you perfectly encapsulated everything I would have said :)
I may have spat out my drink when you mentioned the fragile ego
@@captain_dsz6049 my work here is done
poetry
The biggest thing I noticed is that all of those are usable, unlike some of the oddities from the other weird cymbal videos. Everything you showed here can be used without getting into incredibly eclectic styles of music
The square high hats would work very well in an industrial EBM synth set up
Damn that 24” big bell ride and the cross china sound insanely good!
Right?! Perfect cymbals for a metal gig
I have one of the first ever 24" Jupiter Ride cymbals and it is one of my favorite ride cymbals. I have played every large bell/mega bell ride from Zildjian, Paiste, Sabian, and Meinl, but the Jupiter Ride has the best combination of dryness, darkness, and penetration in my opinion. Everyone should check out this guy's stuff.
7:32 when she squats down to pee in the parking lot on the first date
You say that like it's a negative thing 😂
BROTHER
i think you mean 8:10
Never thought i'd see David with a megabell ride playing 5 minutes alone 😂. Sidenote, that ride sounds damn similar to what vinnie used (22 powerbell Sabian)
I was looking for this comment 😂
I want a powerbell so badly but I'm broke af
@@upshiftcars153 Same here bro
@@upshiftcars153same
this is prob the best lineup of weird cymbals you've done that actually sound great together on the kit
That mega bell ride is SO GOOD! I wish it didnt cost as much as the Sabian variant!
Look who's getting better at double bass. Good stuff, Dude.
That was awesome!
i never thought id hear a pair of hihats that sound like a ride when opened.... love it
We agree! In fact, there were moments when it seemed as though the ride cymbal and hi-hats were being played simultaneously. Very cool!
Dude, those square hats were awesome! I love how playing it like a ride just sounds like a a super washy open open hat underneath a ride sound. Playing with the pedal was cool too. I wonder what a smaller set would sound like…
Lars must have had these on 72 seasons. That album is a 77 minute hihat solo.
The 6" cast at 6:14 matched up perfectly with the background music
I ain't falling for that@@rdavidr.
Weird but they all sound pretty good. Good to see you embracing your dark side....metal!
A weirdo cymbal skeptic, I still think every one of these has a unique sound. Not a fan of the square hats, though, as the constantly changing edge would drive me crazy. Thanks for showcasing these. The spinning wagon wheel with the triangle striker was my favorite effect.
That 21.5" Neptune crash is friggin' sick.
I miss seeing your cymbal project videos. Thanks for tons of informational and educational content over the years.
i dont know if you want to answer this question, but what happened to your videos?
sounds like a deeper splash and i love it
I am curious to know. If you had to build your favourite kit out of all the different separate drums and cymbals you have what would that kit look like. [edit] I really liked the sound of the square hats. I didn't think they'd be all that but they sound really nice.
As a drummer with a degree in mechanical engineering, all I can think is that those square edges are going to start cracking in no time lol.
If the squares were cut inside the cymbal, definitely. Like the china, but with sharper inside corners. As those hats are, they should be fine unless they didn't anneal where the corners are flattened out a bit.
He back again with probably my favorite series you’ve done on this channel besides customizing cymbals!
The X-Men China, The Jupiter Ride and Neptune Crash are simply AMAZING.
Jesus Christ, what a nice and sexy brand to buy new cymbals!
Thank you for your kind words. I'm still chuckling over the X-Men China name. Cheers!
Pantera - 5 minutes alone 😎💪🔥
Yo David playing double bass is so cool! We need more of this sir! 👏
The thin one and the “only a bell”. 😋👍
The cymbal with many bells was interesting too.
They’ve got so many possibilities and sounds!
I’m not a drummer, (but a keyboardist/sound engineer) but I’ve loved drums all my life.
Bro you are the best, love how you approach the tracks, cymbals are crazy
Your content is the best man. Loved the multiple bell cymbal
4:09 love seeing dave playing 5 minutes alone, great content as always
That Neptune crash is super dope … right up my alley lol
Thank you for the compliment! We also offer the Neptune in 22.5" and 23.5" variants. Cheers!
Dude, your playing has gotten so good
That thin crash is amazing, it's like it has an auto-mute built in
David, I loved watching you laugh throughout this video. This one was epically fun. Cheers
FIVE MINUTES ALONE! Just after the “head bangs on broken glass” lyric right?
Weird and fantastic all in one video. The trashy cross-cut china was my favorite. The multi-bell ride was also intriguing.
The square hats are not meant to be played as normal hi hats. Unless you put your body weight on the pedal, there’s no definition. But they have so much potential and so many uses, I think they’re incredible!
Its a good day when david posts
oh damn that multi bell groove thing hit the spot so well
I would totally take that square hihat top to use as an auxilary ride, there was one part where you were riding it open and it was dry and trashy and glorious.
dude you are the cut editing master with that spoke and bells. that was amazing
Dave using a mega bell ride and double bass? YES!
"She's crunchy, shes dirty, shes loud, I think im in love" My man!
4:54 that little grove with the slightly different sounding bell hit is so cool!
KIDS WAKE UP THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEND HAS UPLOADED
My 6 year old is getting interested in rhythm and was talking about cymbals in his music class. I pulled up this video to talk about different cymbals and sounds and it was perfect! Thank you for documenting your creative exploration!
You playing Pantera blows my mind LOL. I still have and use Vinnies Signature 22 Powerbell Ride!!
cant stop addicted to the shindig
Awe man that Cross China sounds freaking awesome I want one now! I also really dig that Jupiter Ride. 👏👏👏
I just got a big smile on my face seeing you posted
GMD is based here in Austin and when I bought from stack from him he drove it out to me. It sounds absolutely great and I am glad to see his other designs here!
Hey those are pretty musical for super weird cymbals! Major props to GMD
Thank you for the fantastic compliment. These sounds truly defy comparison to regular cymbals, which most of us are accustomed to hearing. Our goal is to expand everyone's horizons to the possibilities of new sounds in their music. I'm delighted that you share our vision. Please don't hesitate to get in touch if we can ever craft something unique for you.
5:03 I see you've been practicing your double kick patterns! sounded clean!
The huge bell grabbed me immediately. Fabulous tone.
Thank you for the compliment! We also offer the Jupiter ride in 22", 26", and 28" variants. Cheers!
Long loose rivets in the corners of the Sq hihats would keep them from rotating
That THIN massive crash sounds incredible! Explosive, very fast decay, and bright almost brighter than my 14" A Custom Fast crash. Sounds amazing! I NEED one now!! Super cool video David! Keep the coming at us!
4:20 Oh, I know this song, I just need like 5 minutes alone to recall the name.
The square hi-hats wouldn't be so bad if they weren't so big. 17" is too damn big, maybe 15" would be a better size?
Excited to see what cymbals you found.
The square hi hats are freakin awesome! 🥁❤️
david plays weird cymbals, what a nice sunday treat for me
I never expected a pair of hi hats to make me feel like I needed a snack
I bought three!!! Awesome to work with GM and thanks for sharing
Loved this one! So playful! 😄
6:14
Is perfectly in sync with the song
that china sounds absolutely amazing! but id be afraid of it cracking fast and basically splitting in 2
Thank you for the compliment! I appreciate your concern about potentially cracking our China cymbals. This model, like many of our others, are unique and may require some time to master. In inexperienced hands, they may not last long, but with the right touch, they can provide years of enjoyment. Please stay in touch, as we're introducing new models every six weeks. Cheers!
Bruh stack the Neptune and Cross China.
MORE STACKS!!!
I liked the square hats closed. Not really open. But the casts were my favorites. They reminded me of something Stewart Copeland would play.
Absolutely love that big dingus Jupiter. The bell is so big you can accurately play different notes on it.
Love the finishes on all those cymbals
While these were all pretty strange, I'm surprised at just how good most of them sound. Some are pretty niche, but a good many could find a home on a lot of kits. That china is a beast!
I enjoy waking up on Saturday, to see that rdavidr made a new video
That was so much fun! Thx for doing that!
This is crazy!! Where do you find the weird stuff…. I’d love to know!
you are bless of many drums & cymbals plus accesories
Behind the crooked cross-slayer.
That Jupiter ride is 🔥
Yoo the 24" jupiter ride thing is 5 Minutes Alone by Pantera!!
Funny we just finished learning tha song with my proffesor!!
Becoming!!🤘🏻nice megabell ride❤
Love these videos
"because it just feels like rubber whenever you're beating on it" -rdavidr
"i just love it, and I can't stop playing with it" -also rdavidr
I actually am endorsed with GM Designs ! This is awesome to see the traction he’s getting! If y’all are ever in Austin TX let us know! Keep Austin Weird 💯✊🏾
❤
The square hi hats sound really good aligned. You need like really long rivets or something through both to keep them square
The Jupiter ride bell sounds amazing!
love your vids man :))))
Never thought the cymbals could get any better
I love the Jupiter. That giant bell is beautiful
I actually loved how those square hats sounded
I thought this was supposed to be a weird cymbal video not your audition for The Miami Sound Machine.. how'd that go by the way did you get that gig?😂 that large bell cymbal reminds me of the Zildjian Z custom mega bell ride, which was a great metal and nu metal ride in the 90's and early 00's. All these cymbals are interesting in their own ways love things that stretch the imagination for drummers
THE HI HAT SHAPE IS THE STAR OF RDAVIDR
I got the biggest kick out of this. It was fascinatingly awesome!
this is not the weird cymbals in internet these are the weird cymbals in univeses
That Neptune crash was doing all the right things to my ears. I’d worry I’d break it in like 2 gigs tho
That song you were doing on the Jupiter Ride Cymbal was definitely 5 Minutes Alone by Pantera
yoo that beat at 6:27 was so sick!
Mega bell ride and super thin crash was actually sick!
Damn the 2x 10" bell set up is nice... I always try and have a heavey/dry ride far to the right for driving bell patterns and heavy ride playing (z custom, earth rid,) Even good for swing.. I'd like to see other companies make cupchimes of your favorite rides to pair up etc..
It edited cup Chimes into cupcakes he he ha ha🧁
What's obvious, amongst all the madness, is that these guys obviously understand cymbals. Fair play to them. Some of those are absolute class.
Best series ever
Those square hi hats are legit very usable, I'd gladly have those on my setup
@rdavidr.. BEGONE, UA-cam COMMENT BOT
2:06 Come on, shake your body, baby, do the conga, I know you can't control yourself any longer
That square hihat has so much potential to sound incredible in the right context
That 21,5" Splash is nuts. I want one
Goosebumps when you plaued the set with the wheel
6:55 that was like the greatest thing ever :OOOO
