m.youtube/watch?v=3qGmo3ove6Y Referencing the body tricks and performance art of turntablism, saxmanran takes drumming possibilities to another level with this move. This short clip was taken from a breakdown section in the middle of thirty minute improvisation inspired by his musician friend Clinn Rippy. Who is Clinn Rippy ? The beat is simply crude and stumbles some,. But this was not anticipated or practiced. When asked how the idea came about, saxmanran said, I was about 15 minutes into it and was ready to flip the beat during a simple 1beat breakdown, I wish I had a snare upside down because it sounds different but both my snares were right side up... I dont know why really, I just went there. Honestly, I didnt pre think it. But there are so many afterthoughts now of head pedals with padding and such... A face guard of some sort would be nice... This is the first occurrence of this body trick that we know of. He called the BassHead.
