there doesn't seem to be much on the internets about sloshing hi hats or for that matter mashing in snare hits.
i haven't quite got my snare mash quite yet but i think i stumbled onto something today about sloshing the hats.
i started just stick on the hats rocking them, and was like that sounds kind of neat. stick glued to the hats just pushing on them to get them rocking back an forth. then, while keeping the rocking going i started adding tiny hits, just barely raising off the surface. i think that is how it is properly done because it was musical and not loud and overpowering at all, maybe not quite all the way down to ppp but nearly. it is freekin hard to keep control of though!
