Watch in HD!!!!! So I've been wanting to do something like this for a while, where I basically just jam out to a song. I feel like there aren't any proper videos of me full on improvising, and I want to start changing that. Playing to hip hop and rap songs is actually a large part of my practice these days. I can easily spend two or three hours jamming out to playlists I've made consisting of rap, hip hop, and R&B tracks... This is a song called 'All That' by Dillon Francis. Its off of his most recent album titled 'Money Sucks, Friends Rule'.

This video also serves the purpose to act as a demo for the Meinl Classics Custom line. I absolutely love some of these cymbals, and I've made a lot of them a permanent part of my setup. Below is a detailed list (from left to right) of cymbals Im using:

- 19" Classics Custom Dark Crash
- 16" Classics Custom Trash Crash
- 14" Classics Custom Dark Hats
- 18" Classics Custom Dark Crash
- 20" Classics Custom Dark Ride
- 20" Classics Custom Dark Crash
- 18" Classics Custom Trash Crash
- 16" Classics Custom Dark Crash
- 18" Classics Custom Trash China
- 8" Classics Custom Bell

I've also tried some different things mix wise. I stopped gating on my snare and tom tracks. Im also relying heavily on parallel compression and room mic's. I have a pair of SM 81's down the hall from the drum room, and I have a pair of MXL 604's directly behind me. Both pairs of rooms mic's are setup as a near-coincident pair.
