Hey Gav! You probably answered this question somewhere, but I'll ask it, what is that wild bell fill in from 3:20 in Slippin' Away?
I think that's the same sticking as the fill from the end of Porcupine Tree's version of Cheating the Polygraph, but orchestrated between bells rather than just hihat! There's a transcription in Rhythmic Composition with the sticking Gavin uses. It's a belter to get right thoughHey Gav!

Gavin, for some reason I'm remembering something about 12" Remix hats being used quite a bit on In Absentia. I may have read it here waaaay back as I've been following the thread since the day you joined. Amazing you're still here 15 years later patiently answering questions. Datz a lotta questions!I think I used the 13" Ks on almost everything - although in the photo you posted I've got an additional pair of 14" A new beats next to my 13" K so I could play them half open for that particular song.
cheers

That's very possible - I remember using those 12" Remix hi hats a lot around the early 2000's.Gavin, for some reason I'm remembering something about 12" Remix hats being used quite a bit on In Absentia.

I'd been following the 9-9-9-5 groups while trying to maintain the 16th-note rate through the beginning of Unsettled, but keeping track the 4/4 pulse instead definitely feels way easier to get it consistent, even if it takes slightly more learning to get the hang of, thanks!Hi DeganMusic
... In that case I don't really 'hear' the polyrhythm so much as I'm playing it - I rather just feel it as a funky syncopated rhythm related to the quarter note pulse of the 4/4.
cheers

Hi WarrenoidsIf you're presented with a set of 14" and 16" floor toms in a drum clinic for example, what would your tuning approach be? The same notes as the 15" and 18" or otherwise different?
Also, what pumps do you use for your log drums?
