that snare sounds real crisp

@Jmpercussion85 Thanks

This is not ideal. Not much feel. What kinda music did you grow up playing? I can tell it wasn't reggae... listen to Carlton Barret more closely. Nice chops, i can tell what ever kinda music you normally play you're solid and real good at it.

[OwrKeeng]

This pretty solid, just the same comments everyone else had.

Loosen up your hi hat hand bredren... A good way to train your hi hat hand is by learning some gallop hi hat patterns. Listen: Clint Eastwood - Follow Fashion Monkey & Delroy Washington - Jah Wonderful (good one drop with hi hat)...If you want me to show you how bredren, ill post a video. Bless.

Nice playing mate. One suggestion would be to use the butt end of your stick for doing the cross sticks on the snare. It's not essential but you get a more fuller sound.
