Was gonna say that. I play mostly metal so I want that deep sound, onix were my go too. But that calftone had that very classic sound that works with so many different styles and just fit better.
Anderson paak is all about that old school vibe. Even if his music ain't your style, it's totally undeniable dude has an unreal amount of musical ability.
I didn't know Anderson .Paak, but he was in GTA V in the Dr. Dre DLC update. They do a little thing in Dre's studio and Anderson jumps on a kit and says something like "Dre, you are FAR too rich to have a drum kit THIS shitty." Gave me a belly laugh gaffaw LOL! 😹
@Markleford Dude, Anderson.Paak is one of the most talented and soulful artists in music today. Malibu is arguably his best album but I'd say give Ventura a try too if you like R&B vibes.
@@djhero0071There’s no arguably about it, Malibu is his best project by a country mile. His other albums might have charted better but that’s because ppl didn’t know what they were missing when he dropped Malibu.
@@Code7Unltdit depends on what album you’re talking about. mr. marley and halfway tree both have that thinner, typical reggae sound. after that, jamrock and on, it’s a much thicker, more traditional snare sound
it will never not blow me away that anderson paak is a worldwide superstar now. i remember back when he was a part of the ill-fated hellfyre club collective and releasing EPs of cover songs and playing little indie internet radio shows for LA underground rap nerds. hell i remember when he first changed his stage name to anderson paak from "breezy lovejoy" which was an absolutely hilarious name imho
i love Anderson .Paak, truly a talented artist. learned about him when he was drumming under the name Breezy Lovejoy with Dumbfoundead. happy as can be he is getting the recognition he deserves.
if you got a band together with the drummer playing this, and the guitarist playing the new bruno mars stratocaster, you’d have the perfect modern 70s revival aesthetic edit: that floor tom! i genuinely got chills, it sounds incredible
I don't watch the stream, I'm not a musician and I don't have a particular interest in percussion, but your enthusiasm and infectious laughter has me rewatching every video you release 3-4 times. Keep doing what you are doing "The Drum Thing" bc whatever it is, it works for you.
I love that drum with the calftone! And I know you made a video a long while back about dry cymbals, but I'd love to get a revisit of that concept with a full scale drumkit. Something where the end result sounds like you beating the shit out of drums and having them sound like tree logs would be immensely hilarious to me, although perhaps not quite worth the effort,,
Big Paak fan here, that snare sounds awesome, very funky. The fact that Paak sings as well as he does while playing is also some of the most impressive musicality from a mainstream pop musician
@@dotcircles9926 Are you kidding? Phil Collins was a Billboard Top 40 artist in the 80s and 90s. He’s not mainstream anymore, but he’s definitely mainstream. Not to mention he was the drummer for Genesis.
It's a real shame that someone so talented would collaborate with known domestic abuser and, in my opinion, attempted murderer Chris Brown. Paak had all the clout in the world after working with Bruno Mars and still decided to collab with someone who beat his partner within an inch of their life. Fuck Anderson Paak. And before anyone says "separate the art from the artist", go back to your Kanye albums and Bill Cosby dvds. Wade, you're above supporting people like this.
@@ferretyluv I mean he didn’t even play pop, but sure he was mainstream at the time, Sinatra was also mainstream at his time, and Bach was too but we both know that’s not what OP meant by a “mainstream pop musician”.
I remember watching the Super Bowl halftime show like 2 years ago and my roommate pointed at the screen and asked “Is that Anderson Paak.?” And I was like nah aint no way. But there he was, jamming away in the background of the most viewed program in the US
That drum is just absolutely amazing. And I'm gonna agree, the heavyweight sounds great, but the calftone is how that drum is *supposed* to sound. And, AND! Are we ever gonna get a video on that weird as heck yellow drum set with the horns?!
You have such a bad ass collection of cool drum gear. That snare is freaking amazing, I agree you had to pre order this drum. It’s too fabulous not to have in your collection
Dude, Ludwig, a whole kit that looks like this would be a really cool vibe. I like overly eclectic old styles. I dig gaudy stuff sometimes. I don't know how to describe it other than I think Pagan Min's suit from Far Cry 4 was fantastic and the interior decoration was cool
WOW, that calftone head is a delightful sound. I'm gonna throw one of those on the next time I track drums. God knows my buddy's basement kit could probably use new heads anyway.
i love hybrid drum head setups. evans hydraulic on my snare batter side and remo ambassadors on the toms with an acquarian super kick on the bass. heaven.
That's an awesome sounding snare. I love the cast hoops and all of the hardware on it, too. The heavyweight head sounded really good, but the calftone sounds more "organic". As for drumsticks, I'm weird because I actually prefer the nylon tips on the cymbals. They give more of a "ting" than a "ping", and I like that sound when playing through quality speakers with ribbon or AMT tweeters. :D
i actually liked the G1 head the most in terms of tone. but i prefer open, unmuted drum sounds these days haha. and i always loved a crispy snare drum in comparison to a warmer, deeper sounding tone.
As much as I love the crack of the heavyweight, the calftone just _sounds_ how that drum _looks_
Was gonna say that. I play mostly metal so I want that deep sound, onix were my go too. But that calftone had that very classic sound that works with so many different styles and just fit better.
With the first song I swear it fitted in tuning wise better. Like it was in the right key and everything (calftone that is)
They do
I thought it sounded vaguely... African?
@@blakksheep736it’s almost like African drums were adapted into modern western drums or something
This is the most 70's thing I've ever seen a popstar do, I mean come on, that smile on the mat can't lie about how vintage it wants to be

Listen to Malibu and his collaborations album with Knxwledge, modern classics

@tim.noonan as someone that's loved every one of that man's albums (even some of Venice) that's a bold thing to type.
Ludwig von Beethoven was the best drummer of all time
*Beathoven.
Dogs can play drums? Damn that's crazy.
Beathaven* @@ms_enj
They called him Loud Big when he was drumming
And apparently he's streaming to this day as well
I love the way that calftone resonates! Feels like the kind of drum you'd hear in reggae.
Yes! that _TONG_ sound is everything. Perfect for playing Sublime songs
@@elbeetlebeasto What about anything from Damian Marley?
@@Code7Unltd never listened to him, but if it's anything like Bob and Ziggy, then I'm sure it would be perfect
@@Code7Unltdidk, damian marley usually has more dub-y snares that sound more chunky, less TONG

Worldwide superstar? Never even heard of the dude.
@@TheMainCorecome on. Don't tell me you never heard "Leave the door open" or "Lock it up" with M&M
@TheMainCore I hope you're aware that this says more about you than about him
Okay I was surprised I “hadn’t heard of him” but reading breezy lovejoy made me go OH HIM lmao
@kaitlyn__L yo right?
i love Anderson .Paak, truly a talented artist. learned about him when he was drumming under the name Breezy Lovejoy with Dumbfoundead. happy as can be he is getting the recognition he deserves.
Lol dang did not know that.
Shoutout to Watsky for turning me on to Dumbfoundead and Breezy Lovejoy back in the day
I learned about him when he opened for Watsky in 2014. Wild to see how far he’s come the last 10 years
Anyone who collaborates with Chris Brown can eat shit. Idgaf how good of a drummer they are
The calftone sounded SOOOOOOO GOOD
if you got a band together with the drummer playing this, and the guitarist playing the new bruno mars stratocaster, you’d have the perfect modern 70s revival aesthetic
edit: that floor tom! i genuinely got chills, it sounds incredible
Wade: "I swear they have never changed these keys"
Also wade: "if it ain't broke don't fix it" (much earlier than today)
The wrap is just gorgeous; I would love to have a bandanna with that EXACT pattern on it.

It’s so funny when people are getting recommended drum stuff when they’re here for Australian yelling and aggressively gesturing
This is a quality drum thing, very nice

Phil Collins did the same.

I kinda dig how much it resembles the Wade Dingus Poo Wrapped In Sprinkles Signature Snare.
The gold paisley is such a perfect look for that drum, the calftone just looks right and sounds right on that thing. YES LAWD!
It's been dressed up so well! It's absolutely stunning
1AM Est? Fuck it, its Drum Time!
DRUM THINGS BACK YEEEAAAAAH
Dankpods=reason to start drumming
.. I feel bad about calling it a hippie snare on the drum stream now lmao
Seeing Paak live is an amazing experience, seeing him lead the band, sing and rap all at once is mind blowing.
Those hoops are so shiny I'm afraid they'll blind me
Amazing what the skin change can do for the sound. Neat piece you got yourself, hope you use it in good health for years and years to come!
I could just barely tell the difference between the G1 Coated and the Heavyweight, but i could easily hear the difference in the Calftone.
Just getting started out on drumming and this channel is mostly responsible haha. You’re a delight, mate💜
That drum is just absolutely amazing. And I'm gonna agree, the heavyweight sounds great, but the calftone is how that drum is *supposed* to sound. And, AND! Are we ever gonna get a video on that weird as heck yellow drum set with the horns?!
You have such a bad ass collection of cool drum gear. That snare is freaking amazing, I agree you had to pre order this drum. It’s too fabulous not to have in your collection
you're the most fun/funny person ever. where some people see nonsense i see absolute comedic genious
That rug really ties the room together.
I haven't seen videos about drums' tunings and gear that much, but the second i heard that Calftone head i fell in love.
The calftone was so perfectly tuned for that first song!
wow mate, the calftone on that Ludwig snare sounds amazing. cheers and rock on. ;-)
Good choice with the Calftone. I'm an Aquarian guy, but the Modern Vintage heads are a similar vibe and they've been my go to for years now.
Oh man that paisley is so good with all the instruments details too. I would wear a shirt with that print on it in a heartbeat.
i just hope wade makes a giant drum kit so people can make music with his instruments
Gosh where the heck is a silk sonic second album!? That album was so good. I love not only the drum grooves in the album but the way his drums sound
The fake calfskin on that snare = instant early Santana vibes
I’d totally have that drum mat as the rug in my living room
Yooooo a signature, nice nice
Its very cute how excited you are about a new drum set! Thanks for the great content!
NO WAY YOU GOT A RUG TOO HAHAHAHAHHA
He’s like me when I find a new world war 2 mechanics document
Dude, Ludwig, a whole kit that looks like this would be a really cool vibe. I like overly eclectic old styles. I dig gaudy stuff sometimes. I don't know how to describe it other than I think Pagan Min's suit from Far Cry 4 was fantastic and the interior decoration was cool
This makes me wanna try a calftone!! Sounds fantastic!
That is one gorgeous drum!
Honey wake up new Drum Thing just dropped
Always a good day when a new drum thing video drops
I’m an Evans guy too, I didn’t know that they made a Calftone snare head. Very cutting and resonate tone, I love it!
absolutely in love with the way that calftone sounds
WOW, that calftone head is a delightful sound. I'm gonna throw one of those on the next time I track drums. God knows my buddy's basement kit could probably use new heads anyway.
Anderson .Paak is amazing, and Silk Sonic is just extraordinary! Love this drum
what a beautiful snare
New drum thing video yessss
Great video Wade!
It is amazing
YESSS!! More Drum Thing!!!
Trust me, the drum stream is the best $2.80 ever spent. I highly suggest joining it!
i love hybrid drum head setups. evans hydraulic on my snare batter side and remo ambassadors on the toms with an acquarian super kick on the bass. heaven.
I would never have known Ludwig was literally in the town I teach in… right down the road.. without this video. Wild.
Boy that calftone sounds SWEET!!!
I adore how excited he sounded. It's infectious.
i love you you have inspired me to take drum lessons and drum gcse
Wow, that snare thing is awesome!
Glad we got to see that prototype paiste ride in another vid
dude the rug is glorious
In isolation, that Calftone did sound killer! However, I thought the G1 cut through the mix a tiny bit better
that sounds amazing with the calftone
thats fully sick
oooh i _really_ dig that snare! I'd like to get that in a sound pack for my Roland e-drums
that attack and release of that calftone makes the beat dance.
a midnight upload is the best upload
The calftone's sound fits the look of it, just the perfect amount of energy to it fitting the 70s vibe of the drum and mat
Best part about visiting aus is that I can jump on these videos immediately after they upload
The only thing that snare is missing is bell bottoms, and porkchop style sideburns.
That's an awesome sounding snare. I love the cast hoops and all of the hardware on it, too. The heavyweight head sounded really good, but the calftone sounds more "organic".
As for drumsticks, I'm weird because I actually prefer the nylon tips on the cymbals. They give more of a "ting" than a "ping", and I like that sound when playing through quality speakers with ribbon or AMT tweeters. :D
that calftone tho, sounds awesome
Mate, I sure do love me some .Paak❤❤❤❤
It’s a great sounding snare and all but I gotta say, Feliz bottom jeans absolutely stole the show and now we absolutely need a full cover
man do i wish i had the money for those drum streams. he loves meme music and damn it so do i
The design really is amazing
Diggin’ the Reg Mombassa/Mambo shirt 🤙
Man, that calftone sounds excellent!
Just want to mention Wade with glasses looks sick!
New year, new drums.
So cool
THE KING IS BACK
Someday I hope to find something that makes me half as happy as this random Australian drummer TH-camr when he gets a new drum.
Figures Wade would like jazzed up drums
i actually liked the G1 head the most in terms of tone. but i prefer open, unmuted drum sounds these days haha. and i always loved a crispy snare drum in comparison to a warmer, deeper sounding tone.
Same feeling mate
HOLY MOLY
This channel makes me want to buy good headphones
HELL YES!!! HES BACK!! ❤❤❤
The Calftone sounds so good. I'm definitely investing in that
YES FINALLY NEW DRUM VID
the split-second Onix XD
oohh that calftone is nice! and the g1 was pretty nice.
3:34 "LOOK GARY, THERE I AM!"
The Silk Sonic project and that fucking tiny desk concert. sooo gooooood. gotta listen to it again for 12h straight
