Wow! I'm amazed by the ignorance of some of are drumming bro's. That is a traditional Mozambique, the one Gadd plays is a more modern interpretation. Very good job beniben2
I really can't tell if you're trying to be funny or not...so forgive me if you feel I'm being a smart ass here...
But there's no such thing as a Jazz Tom...the small tom is too muffled and the floor tom is too open...Even in the early jazz days when they had one calf skin head on each drum...the drums were tuned as low and open as possible...
These are probably just not tuned well cause they're new / very old heads!
I learned the ride cymbal rhythm before, I can't remember when but it definitely isn't mozambique, though I know it's very close to it, even my teacher told me so.
The toms sound awesome by the way, better than mine. =)
doesn't matter how drums are tuned. tuning is easy shit. this guy can make his limbs hit when they are suppose to hit. that's what is important, and he can do that, so all ya'll fuck off.
well this IS mozambique, thats jazz tuning, it doesnt sound mozambique like on other videos because it is not being played on a cowbell with the correct open and closed sections. for gods sake people this is a fucking tutorial, be gratefull for it
Your toms soud a really choked dude... and... hmmm... I don't think that's a mozambique groove... check out Tommy Igoe's lesson on Mozambique, Clearly different from what you're doing...

Good lesson, but tune those freakin' toms. I tuned my groove percussion drumset and it sounds better than that.

This is definitely not a cascara bell pattern. A cascara goes like this:
R R RR RR RR R RR.
Or: 1 2 3 and and 1 2 and and and 1
Then the mozambique pattern is this:
R R RR R RR RR RR
Or: 1 2 3 and and and 2 3 and and 1
Also, if you're playing a mambo you can play a cascara bell pattern but there's also a "mambo" bell pattern that goes like this:
R R RRRR RRRR RRR
Or: 1 2 3and4and and2and3 4and1
Hope this helps, happy drumming :D

ok on one level I like the instructional aspect of the video. Playing a rythm slowly repeatedly. Thank you for that.
But MAN ...thats the nastiest tuning job I've ever heard.

I don't mind the sound of the toms at all. In fact I think your whole kit sounds really sweet. Maybe I should dump the Zildjians and go Paiste...

It's sounds like a cascada ride pattern to me, which would be used in a mambo drum pattern.
KalashnikoV247 2 years ago
That's such a nice sound!
It kinda feels like a beat that you could just slip into and be mesmerized by :P
The tuning is fantastic

Yeah, for real, if any of you idiots who were critizing his tom sounds knew how to play the drums, you would know they're tuned for jazz.

It's standard carbon stick from CARBOSTICK.
I preferred to use them for the video because the sticks' movements are more readable!
