New guy here. Want to get a drum kit soon, but first I want to learn as much about them as possible.
I want either some books or YouTube vids that cover these two things:
1) how the drums/cymbals are placed and set up. I'd like to see something where it shows a 1st person view, and shows the the different amount of toms and crash cymbals for example and why people choose to have that many over another number.
2) drums as applied to songwriting. As in, X beat with the ride cymbal for one section of the song, then Y cymbal for the next section. I see drummers change it up all the time and want to learn more about that.
Anyone got some good links for this?
