  • I sometimes look up what people used on recordings I like, even just for a vague starting point, because obviously it can really vary depending on recording and production. I think for cleaner stuff the most important thing is tuning it properly.

  • This is another thing, I need to learn how to tune a snare properly. My current technique involves cranking everything to be really tight so that I get a nice crack out of my snare that cuts through the rest of the band.
    It's really fun playing something that different that gets me out of my comfort zone!

  • I made that sound like I know how to tune drums – no fucking idea.
    Last time I did a recording the engineer took my snare off and said to try his, it was weird to play but sounded so so much better recorded.
