    A bit rushed here and there, + a few wrong notes, but on the whole I'm happy with it : )

    I play drums since I was like 14, and I'm 20 now. Also, tried to produce some music for a while, but didn't invested much time on it, so never did nothing really good. But I like to try something once in a while. My brother is becoming good at producing, though.

    Also I like to compound musics every once in a while, I have written poetry since I was like 10 or something like that.

    I don't actually have a drum setup on my own, I usually play in my church. I don't know if I know all the correct terms is english but there we have a setup like Snare Drum 14", High Tom 12", Low Tom 13", Floor Tom 14", Floor Tom 16", Bass Drum 22", and also a Tom 11", that I don't know if it has a specific name in english, all of these are Michael's. We also have a Crash 16", a Ride 20" and HiHat 14", that are Sabian's and a Splash 10" that is Orion's. We also just got a microphone setup for, so it's kinda cool.

    ok, so when I was younger (like 4 or 5) my parents bought me a drum set for Christmas , and when I got a bit older, I stoped playin. I start drumming on my desk in school and drive my teachers right to the edge, they all say I should play the drums. I listen to a ton of rock, and stuff. (I'm 14) should I pick it back up or is it to late?

    Thanks man : )
    Yup, totally and utterly made up on the fly. Some of the ideas you heard in there were imported over from other improvs I've done over the years, but all in all, I just sat down, started recording and started playing, putting in bits and pieces when I thought the time was right. It wasn't really that well put together tbh, and the transition at around 2:00 or so has me cringing, but the beginning and the end was good and totally made up just at that moment. The more active parts in the middle came from previous runs.
    Have you got any recordings?

    Cool, I honestly haven't heard of or played either of those brands to be honest. How do they compare to more readily available drum companies like Tama, DW, or Pearl? And the cymbals to such brands as zildjian and sabian?

    I made a mistake. Michael was the brand of our old one. This one that I'm talking about is from Williams, and I don't think that it's as good as the ones you mentioned, but they are quite good. Not that hard to see some from this brand here in Brazil. Also, all of my cymbals are from Sabian, as I said. Except the splash, that is from Orion, with is alright. But the Sabian ones are great.

    Yeah I know that's the one I was talking about, I've just never heard of Orion cymbals.

    On a side note, I really want to put LED rings in my acrylic shells. It would either look really cool when playing live or kinda ricey, can't decide

    Cool, it's alright. Orion isn't that good, but it's not bad.

    I think it might look cool. But I don't know, it kinda depends on your taste for things.

    Great job! It has a nice vibe and you did good with the vocals and instruments!

    I gave it a like and I subscribed. I know that it's not easy to start things like this from scratch.
