hot 170bpm singles in YOUR area!!!

ooo yeah that makes sense!

(they sent the emails while i already didn't have running water because roadworks people burst a pipe in front of my place this morning lmao)

thank youu 🌸

i can do that. dm?

doing that with an instrument i barely know, let alone play, kinda forces me to push past the wall for once.
also hey, it's been a bit over a month since i picked the drums back up, and i think i've made some real progress. happy :)

i feel so self-conscious posting these practice videos. the stuff's slow and full of imperfections and not that great, all things told. but idk, it helps.
there was a time not long ago when even playing guitar in front of a camera was unthinkable.

Sayonakidori by Band-Maid, around 3:32!

also goddesses, THIS.

around 3:33 in the song, just wild triplets out of nowhere and then... silence! for one beat! before she goes back to the baseline 4-on-the-floor beat

basically the reason why i chose to learn this song in the first place, the tension and release is almost orgasmic

there's a sweet 16th note snare-midtom-floortom-kick fill that she does repeatedly to switch from "kick on 1" to "snare on all quarter notes" that i'm going to steal *so* fast, it's such a small thing but it allows her to change grooves so fluidly, just beautiful stuff

the remaining 15bpm are going to be 90% posture work, i can already feel it. oh joy.
