Breakdown of setting up mics for drums. Very detailed.

Fun little shoot I did of one of my snare drums.
RIP: Jeremiah Green
45, yikes.
I first found Modest Mouse during a visit to Portland in 2001, just after 9-11. I was at Music Millennium and picked up probably one of the last CDs I ever bought, “The Moon and Antartica”. Back in LA, they became a soundtrack during skate sessions, backyard pool hunts, surf trips and many nights better left unsaid.
“Jeremiah Green, the longtime Modest Mouse drummer, has died, the band announced. Green’s bandmates had recently disclosed that Green was undergoing treatment for cancer. Jeremiah Green was 45 years old.
Green co-founded Modest Mouse with frontman Isaac Brock and bassist Eric Judy in Washington in the early 1990s.”
The Trap Set interviews Questlove
Man, what a great interview here. They cover meditation, visualization and all sorts of good stuff. I don’t think they talk about actual drumming once?

Have some drum fun in your day!
“Gregg Bissonette and I discuss the drummers that every serious drummer should know from Gene Krupa to Ringo Starr to John Bonham to Questlove. A comprehensive guide of styles from Swing, Jazz, Rock, Fusion, Hip Hop and Funk.”

I stumbled upon Aubrey Drums Lessons the other day and it’s really interesting how he breaks down the phrasing. Gonna be spending some time here checking it all out.
