Today were checking out some weird drum hacks! Imagine 5 Minute Crafts, but for drums... Ever wanted to complicate your bass drum muffling technique and carry around a bike tire pump? Well you're in luck! But Tiktok drums are kinda interesting too. Just reverse your snare side head if its too worn out and won't tighten up enough. Concert toms are somehow making a comeback, but whats the best way to turn a regular drum into one? Maybe Remo Silentstrokes are the answer? Ringy Snare? Just fill it with silicone! But my favorite by far is using a microphone as a bass drum beater
