I've started a new channel! I will still post stuff on this channel in the same formats / genres / styles that I usually play. I wanted to challenge myself and do something new, I'm a little bit of a nerd and I love gaming music but didn't really want to combine the two on here. Go check it out! Maybe consider subscribing and leaving a like if you enjoy, or if you think it sucks feel free to leave a dislike and be vocal and let me know!

What song should I “butcher” next? If you’re unsure what I mean check out my latest video. I will play outrageous fills and unconventional grooves over songs that really don’t need it. I will be doing all these songs regardless but what do you want to see next? Cast your vote below. I’ve had a couple of comments recently saying I should hit harder and “put more energy into it” so I will be flapping my arms around like a fish out of water and hitting very hard!

Yoooooo! It’s been a while. I’m back with my old band again. It’s been the best thing that’s ever happened to me in all my years of playing music and has helped me improve as a musician. Very proud of what we have created.

I’m going to start posting on this YouTube channel again, starting over the next couple of days, probably 2-3 videos a week 🔥🔥🔥

Broken stagg DH 16” crash under a 13” China that was cut down from a 18”. Makes a great stack! 14” Sabian anthology high bell hihats. 18” meinl byzance hand hammered thin crash (10” Sabian ozone splash on top). 10” meinl byzance dual splash. 22” Meinl byzance extra dry thin ride. 20” Meinl byzance extra dry crash
DW Design Series - 22x18, 12x9, 16x14, mix of DW/Yamaha/Tama/Gibraltar/Roc N Soc Hardware
Yamaha Recording Custom 14x6.5, M80 snareweight or Big Fat Snare Drum head.

Honestly loving life, the electric kit has been sold and I’m really enjoying playing acoustic again, starting to get things dialled in nicely now. I filmed a couple of videos today I’ll get them released soon 🔥

Back to it! I’ve been nursing an injury, still need to get it diagnosed but 90% sure I’ve got carpal tunnel. I had a rehearsal last month and for the following two weeks my wrist was in agony. So I took a break from playing drums. It’s feeling much better now! And I’ve just bought a Yamaha EAD10. Best thing I ever did, so much nicer playing it than playing on electric drums. Both are a luxury of course. I’m very grateful and fortunate to have them! Will be back to posting regular content soon

So I’m planning to upload another video in 6 hours time. I’ve got a few more shorts to post that I filmed at my solo rehearsal on the acoustic kit a few days ago. I’ll be filming a few longer videos on Monday. Vote what you want to see the most. Whatever comes 2nd I’ll post tomorrow or Sunday. New content next week

Thanks for taking part in the poll. I just recorded a few more videos. If you had to chose, which of the 3 would you rather me post tomorrow? The one with the most votes in next 24 hours wins.

Ps: here is a link to the original tiktok for number 3. It’s a Mazda Rx7 engine idling almost perfectly in time and it’s hilarious with drums.

There won’t be any videos for a while unfortunately. I’ve just moved back to my home town. The space where I used to play drums needs some major TLC before I can set up in there. It’s probably going to be a couple of weeks, maybe a bit more. In the meantime I will probably rent a rehearsal studio for a couple of nights and maybe upload some acoustic drum clips, other than that there won’t be much going on.

2022 was probably the hardest year of my life so far, and 2023 doesn’t look like it’s going to get any easier, one thing that has and will keep me going though is my passion for music and drums. I will continue to make content whenever I can, regardless of who watches and when. 10 views a video or 10000, I’ll be back with a bang, having this to focus on has done wonders for my mental health in these hard times. Without drumming I don’t know where I’d be right now.

All the continued support and comments are very much appreciated, and I’ll look forward to hopefully catching up with you all on my next video whenever that may be
