No, not tom angles. There's already a thread for that.
Like many of us, I sometimes fall down "cool drum video" rabbit holes on Youtube. I twigged to something yesterday: People are starting to angle their stuff away from them. Anike Nilles has it in this video, for example. I saw an ad in DRUM! magazine featuring Keith Carlock that shows floor toms and side snare tilted away.
I know things go through trend phases. In the 80s everything was tilted toward you. The Oughties saw a shift back to everything being flat.
Is what I'm seeing becoming a trend? Was it a trend and I missed it? Or is there a serious reason for it that I can't comprehend?
