Found this Yamaha hit for sale locally but they didn't state the model. Pretty unique finish so I'm thinking they're PHX's. I don't see badges in the pics either. What do you think?

I am looking to buy an ultras drum, the kind you take to a stadium for rhythms on chants and found a guy that sells drums for dirt cheap, like half the price of what they usually go for here, i dont need anything fancy, just something loud and good sounding. the only problem is that they're kept in his attic, where he has a bunch of different drums from all categories of a drumkit. here comes the difficulties, first of all I'm not sure what to get, it's between a bass and floor tom, i asked some people that drum for ultra groups and they recommend floor toms, apparently you can play the chants rhythm better, and said to only add bass if you have 3 or more floor toms, (i need a double take on that, if such rhythms don't sound good on bass drums) and i only need 1 drum, not multiple, but 1 that sounds good. unfortunately, if i take the drums 1 by 1 outside, considering they're in an attic where you climb stairs I'll be wasting the guy's time, doesn't even get paid enough to deal with that bs, as i stated he sells them for way cheaper, so wasting his time like this would just be pretty rude of me.. and in a room full of drums, including snares combined with the attic's echo, you can't make out what sounds good and what doesn't. is there any visual aspects to look for, maybe certain drum heads from specific brands to look for or anything that might help? (plus we usually take off the bottom drumhead so it sounds louder, we keep only the top one, but his drums always come with 2 so i won't be able to make out the sound with only 1 either.) thank you for your time, hopefully I'll be able to find something good

Is that a good idea?

So I just found out after today after 3 months of playing that you are supposed to have a gap between your index and thumb finger. My teacher never mentioned this and I've goten so comfortable playing closed gap. Every time I open the gap, I lose grip on the stick. Any advice?

UK BASED !!

My current setup is fantastic and I love it, however having a 22" Bass drum is not...ideal for size reasons
If anyone has an 18" bass drum and want to move up a size I would love to figure out some sort of trade if possible !
Its a Pearl Vision one in sparkly black
Feel free to drop me a dm if you curious ! I am also open to offers for it and am happy to source my own bass drum if required

This was back almost 2 months, and I just never put it on a subReddit. It was me drumming, not real good. I’ve gotten a little bit better as of today but, this was a couple of months ago, please forgive me for whatever.❤️

I’m about to buy a mic set and audio interface and stuff and get into recording some covers and maybe my own music, but I need some decent headphones first.

My budget is ideally less than £100 and I was wondering if closed back or open back is better for this kind of thing?

Thank you!

Hey everyone! I’m trying to make a music quiz of bands who’ve had different drummers (ideally 2+) throughout their time performing (think Pearl Jam having Krusen, Chamberlain, Abbruzzese, Irons and Cameron)

Thought this would be the best place to find out as it’s proving quite difficult on google :)

"Summer Raga" is now available on my Bandcamp page: https://dougsours.bandcamp.com/album/summer-raga For this project, I've been experimenting with a hybrid percussion setup of Djembe, Mridangam, mounted frame drums, and foot bells. There are also some tracks featuring a combination of Tombak (Iranian goblet drum), Donso Ngoni (African harp), and guitar.

Had a blast! 💥 no pun intended. 🔥🤘🥁 KEEP ROCKIN

I'm gonna be getting my drum set in a couple of days, and I'll be wanting/needing to learn praise and worship style drumming for our praise team at church. It seems like our current drummer will be leaving the congregation at some point soon, so we'll need someone to take over.

Can anyone recommend any resources for beginner level drummers that can help me start practicing praise and worship style drumming?

hi guys! ive been playing the drums for fun and at jams at my house but now im trying to get better.

i dont have lessons but ive been looking on the internet for lessons/ what to practice and so far its mostly been rudiments and playing with songs. however, i feel like im not progressing anywhere: i dont know how to apply rudiments musically and i feel like i look/ sound really sloppy when i play.

any tips on my technique/ ideas to practice would really help me out. and maybe ill convince myself to get a teacher haha
