Drum It With Brummet

Following up on my previous discussion about safely cutting down broken cymbals. This second video shows the results of my efforts with a rack of five cup chimes and a couple of single ones put atop some crashes. https://youtube.com/shorts/emZQa_QNTM8 ~~~     Find our Books:   on Amazon Subscribe:   Brummet Media​ YouTube Channel​  ​ ~~~

In this post I demonstrate the method I use to safely cut down broken cymbals into smaller diameters to create little bell chimes about 5 inches in diameter.  I have also made smaller crashes and splashes out of some of the bigger cymbals but found they don’t always sound as desirable as the little ones, which have a cutting, discordant sound that is really quite cool.  Check out the video: https://youtube.com/shorts/-SdnOjqJTtA * Check out drummer Gavin Harrison's videos on Youtube where you can witness his use of cut down cymbals. Also check out my recent post on Gavin's CPU Theory . Part 2 of this discussion can be found on December 15th's post. ~~~     Find our Books:   on Amazon Subscribe:   Brummet Media​ YouTube Channel​  ​ ~~~
