Any of y'all play instruments in your place?

Thinking of getting a drum kit, tabla, or djembe to practice drumming, but idk how to play it quietly in my place.

Any suggestions?

drums are tricky forsure. a good electronic kit might have to be the way (if you get a kit). which floor are you on?

there’s a lot of great low cost sound proofing videos on YouTube that are worth following regardless though

my friend plays drums in his apartment all the time and his neighbors f***ing hate it but whaddaya gonna do

i'm a couple floors up in my place.

might have to look into sound proofing

😂😂

at my old place my upstairs neighbors had a loud ass big dog that always stomped so i would get my bass amp, put it directly in front of the closet door and shake the entire building fr. i felt like a god, i was so happy to get out of there tho

my friend loves this and has played in various apartments with it for a decade

well you can always get a electronic kit

sound proofing will do wonders forsure it’s a must

looks pretty fire. might look into this. thank you

how would I play these (tabla and djembe) in an apartment?

Same way you would do it outside of an apartment tf

These wont even be that loud unless you have paper thin walls. A real drum kit would be a problem

not trying to get a noise complaint man.

my complex been sending too many emails to everyone about people playing loud music and smoking lol

the walls lowkey paper thin. been hearing my neighbors going at it too many times

lol, what face you see man?

they'll hear everything unless you play an electric keyboard with headphones on

Living in an apartment as a man
potentially sleeping above or below other men

Wouldn’t these sound hella loud

Man f*** em as long as u not awful and don't play all day long

I got a neighbor who watching p*** after 12, like loud af volume
That's annoying af

My upstairs neighbors be f***in right above me

You can probably soundproof your room for cheap if your rentier allows it
Or f*** it carpets on every wall ussr style

trying to domed by your neighbors lmao

Yeah electric kit or nothing. Everybody saying "fuck your neighbors" has never been on the other side. Hearing your neighbors make constant, uncontrollable loud noise can send your mental into hell. Don't put anyone through that unless they deserve it

I had to lawyer up to gtfo of my last apartment for this reason, was getting death threats and my power cut in the middle of the night from the downstairs neighbors (once the dude cornered my wife in the parking lot on her way to work at like 4am). Set cameras up and the old f*** was harassing my dog all day when we were at work too

We werent using instruments, they thought a buzzing noise was coming from us on purpose, turned out to be something faulty in the floor/ceiling and didn't like when they could hear the water from us flushing the toilet at night

Never had a situation like that in 11 years of renting but crazy people have nothing holding them back and I wouldn't want to find out what neighbor is crazy like that when you're making hella noise on purpose. Electric drum kits are so cheap and really dope now anyways
