"Chops" is pretty much the title of this video... It's a shed session... All these people com paining there's no groove. The video is about experimenting with chops. They didn't get together and go "lets make a musical performance" they will have said "lets get together and have a shed session and go mental with some chops"... They can all play musically but that's not the aim of the game in this instance...

@Cypherior88 8 жыл бұрын

+76boromir He has guts to put a phone on the snare while playing fast

@nelsschulzke6231 6 жыл бұрын

Yeah, in all likelihood he has it there to dampen the snare. Makes sense since that snare is clearly tuned high as a kite, he may not dig that sound but clearly doesn't have time to switch out the snare or retune while everyone else is playing, so dampening is the easiest option. And he is probably one of those players that when he changes out his snare head there is one dime shaped spot worn all the way through the coating of the head to the clear because that is the only place he hits, so with that accuracy there is no risk of hitting his phone, haha.

Love seeing awesome drumming like this. It just goes to show that no matter how you play how technical you are, how fast you are or whatever that all of us are individual. I hate seeing people comment saying "Oh this guy is shit cause he can't play fast and only plays slow" etc. or whatever, because we are all INDIVIDUAL drummers, all human, and we all have a mind of our own and at the end of the day its not about being fast, technical or whatever it is about just about being YOU no matter what!
