What kinda Hihats you got? They are cool. Very nice jam.

Thanks! They're Meinl extra dry 14 hats and Zildjian A mastersound 12 on x-hat. I must say that I'm in love with the crash which is an Istanbul mehmet turk 18...incredible cymbal!

I know the sound is pretty crap but thought I'd share some short vids of things I've been working on..
It's been like an oven in the studio the last few days!

1/ Improvising some cross rhythmic 5 ideas between left hand and right foot

2/ Playing a 15 note groove as 8th note triplets, 16ths and quintuplets over a 1/4 note pulse.
The intro fill is quintuplets partly orchestrated in 3s, if anyone is interested.

3/ Practicing displacing the hihat over Herbie Hancock's Chameleon groove

Cool, I like the Sabian ride. Sued heads are cool too.I want to experiment with them .

[percusski]

Cheers...what are sued heads?

[Paul Marangoni]

I think he's referring to your snare drum head which looks like a Black Suede Remo.

[percusski]

Ah, no it's an Aquarian Dejohnette head
