Nice one!!! You should upload some recordings of just you playing.

Drummers unite!

I'll have to post up some of my raw breaks and the resulting noise I call music.

Oh man this siiick I just smoked a bowl and with the camera shaking from the kick just made it 4x more epic

plus I fucking love LTJ

You're an unbelievably good drummer man thats for sure...

but id also like to hear you playing on your own, would you go to a studio to record? or do you have professional equipment?

Wicked stuff man
Iv really been wanting to get some drums mics recently but im too poor, cant wait to start these kinda videos though!

You don't need really nice mics. I do all my recordings with either some $25 CAD condensers http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/pr ... sku=271324 or some cheap m-audio condensers http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/pr ... sku=276502 as well as 1 sm-57 knockoff in the kick (cant find the exact one). The CAD ones are nice, and at $50 a pair they really perform well.

You just have to accept that you're not going to get "studio quality" recordings, but I prefer that. Just record @ 44.1/24 minimum.

Wow, nice You've got talent sir.
Nice song choice, makes me wanna set my kit back up. Just its buried under loadsa crap in the garage :\

When it comes to playing DnB-style drums, learning Jazz drumming techniques is definitely key and you've got it down trés nicely

thanks for the kind words sirs.
i'll try and post up some more videos regularly. i'm new to the forum, and actually faiiirly new to dubstep.
it's good to be a part of the scene
OH I KNOW - anybody have any requests for tracks to play along to? I'm learning Datsik - Retreat right now....it's a toughie because every bar is different, the pattern never repeats...which is fucking cool. lemme know

breakmonster

wow that is fucking sweet
coolest thing ive seen all day

oh and about mic's - i have an sm57 for the snare, a d112 for the kick, and apex 185's for overheads. In total all 4 mics cost around $500. It depends how pro u want ur kit to sound really....if you want it to sound huge and fat...get more high end mics (obviously). A lot has to do with mic placement and your interface as well. I run through a Presonus Firestudio Project. It's got 8 inputs, everything about it is pretty standard...sounds pretty decent. It runs at like 650 bucks.

I wanna see you play this,

u got a download link for dat?

kj sawka did an awesome drum-sample pack as a promotion for ableton and my goodness, it is such a good pack!!!!

This reminds me of that. Nothing beats raw drums imo.

Nice drumming man! Especially the ltj one.

Oh dude I absolutely LOVE Kj Sawka's playing.....sooo legit.

Hey guys I have a bit of an off topic question but if you could direct me to a DNB equivalent to this forum I would really appreciate it.
Thanks

DOA is probably your best bet, went down the tubes a bit recently but there's still loads of knowledge from old threads.
