Drumline Edition: PVAMU MSD vs. NCCU DOA - MEAC/SWAC Challenge (2018)

[@ZymbalistiK]

Two different styles. I consider this more of a showcase, no winner. Both did well in their respective style.

[@rljproductionsinc284]

Did central play a RCC warmup

[@sirynow4539]

If pv get rid of all those basses maybe you can here what they are actually playing, but great job both sides, obviously one side was way more balanced then the other,

[@imstilllaughintoofunny2572]

The fact that one play warm ups or cadences doesn’t matter, we are here to hear funky and clean. To make it easier to anyone who’s not a percussionist it’s like listening to someone read out loud one sounds understood the other sounds like they are trying to scream words

[@TazzKId]

Not different styles, but different APPROACHES. They both held it down for what they do. Each line held it's own.

[@zackarynoble9611]

The cadence by DOA at 20:19 mark is cold!! DOA has excellent material!

[@majorbryant760]

This was SUPER dope to watch. I’m DOA but a huge fan of the box or MSD no disrespect to whomever. But just like how in the swac the going common thing is running drops and no tonals, this was a clear mismatch in volume obviously, I just personally think with PV the high tension snares will always be swallowed by their bass drum section, they sound great up close but in the stands all I hear is bass drums, an occasional tenor and rolls and rimshots. Not bashing but the 2 styles really can’t be compared. Only way is through a sectional battle tbh

[@AKINGSKYD]

Giving this one to D.O.A....Great battle though. I think what gave the edge to D.O.A was because their sound. Not in terms of cadences, but in terms of blending. MSD probably was throwing some heat but their BD’s somewhat overpowered the section at times causing it difficult to hear what the rest of the section was contributing.

[@markezmills4261]

What’s the name of the cadence NCCU plays at the 5:00 mark?

[@keith.lorenzo]

Markez Mills LMNO

[@nigelwilliams7905]

DOOOOAAAA✊🏾💪🏾🔥

[@coreybeverly4430]

26:37 "It's a warmup" 😂😂

[@BeeDotGee1113]

Why are their vocals louder than their playing

[@kingjokerful]

Brandon Garrett lower frequencies travel further and sound “louder “ . if DOA was tuned how they used to be...would be a whole different story

[@deepblackaquatics9694]

kingjokerful preach.

[@deeeichelberger279]

Did yall hear the quake from them Prarie View basses?

[@micahfavors9228]

BRO.... PV basses was def quaking

[@deeeichelberger279]

@Micah Favors bro that was major quake right there.

[@carlohill1365]

Personally I wish Swac drumlines would add tonal basses to their lines. I get tradition but is time for an upgrade. I can see MSD along with certain other lines making that transition.

[@ccharlie05]

Carlo Hill that's like an unofficial big no no in the SWAC. WE HATE TONAL BASSSES!!! Yes in cadences I understand but in most SWAC schools they want the percussion piece to sound that of a drum set and a few schools have quints but you're not gonna see tonal bases in the SWAC. When you have time listen to SWAC bands song selections and listen to the percussion piece you'll hear what I'm talking about.

[@officialtorrendavis5925]

Swac people always say it's two different styles. You cant judge pr no winner. What's the point of even competing then... pvamu is the closes to a meac drumline

[@officialtorrendavis5925]

I feel the same way

[@flygurlnaetv]

#DOA baby y’all already know 🔥🔥🔥💯💯

[@CoopSnoop95]

DOA ROASTED DAT ASS with warm ups and marches! NCCU has the most balanced, blended, clean sound I’ve heard in a while. You can actually hear all parts of the cadence. Although PV has some good grooves, their basses sound like trash cans.. no skill or control needed whatsoever to make that line lol and Tenors were dirty. NCCU took this one.

[@markezmills4261]

Cooper Blackwell basses were OD loud lol

[@robvandam66]

MSD🔥🔥🔥

[@williamwhite8257]

MSD with the win and I like DOA they were very good and clean but they ran out of gas way too quick

[@jesusmata4115]

What the hell is a doa

[@daddyyo9103]

It stands for "Dead on Arrival" stupid 😂 like how pvu ass was

[@jesusmata4115]

@@daddyyo9103 that's not how pv was at all, nccu had no chance, they didn't sound bad, better than what I expected but not "dead on arrival" lmao

[@teddyfinesse3745]

They had no chance but was playing the same shit over and over them baby ass callouts

[@dsavage636]

Man AXIS creased em...

[@2KnateHoncho]

Why they all playing drop and that drum obviously only a 22” 😂

[@jeremiahwilliams2764]

Because we run drops in the swac that's why, running different size drums to drop sounds better than all the same size drum. That's why we're louder than everyone else

[@2KnateHoncho]

Jeremiah Williams Ik how the swac works 😂 that’s just ugly... and pv not even the loudest in the swac so i don’t even see the point

[@drummerslifedoa2339]

My boys chopped em up DOAX !!!!!! Its what we do

[@bigstreeter3000]

MSD💪🏾🔥

[@micahfavors9228]

2 Different styles. Id say NCCU got that one on chops and material. I want to see DOA and COLD STEEL face to face battle for 30 mins

[@biancawilliams5931]

box won..but it would be clearer to see and hear if the base would turn down and then up..sound like miss or Louisiana section

[@pfunkbro]

Damn chuz........................ Doa waxed them boyz.

[@TruckerLondon]

DOA baby AX!

[@diablosunderground]

DOA London IS!

[@Vonear]

DOA is super clean

[@nigelwilliams7905]

[@CB-yd7ci]

[@jeremiahwilliams2764]

MSD ran through they shit all game, them boys ran out of cadences and had to start playing warmups. Automatic L

[@nigelwilliams7905]

Jeremiah Williams Msd was dirty and cluttered asf , everyone in the crowd even said that Doa was cleaner , Msd literally had basses and that was it

[@jeremiahwilliams2764]

@@nigelwilliams7905 bro stop, we wernt dirty and you could hear us unlike them

[@malikthompson612]

Of course you could hear them because of how horrible those drums see tuned

[@nigelwilliams7905]

Malik Thompson exactly

[@jeremiahwilliams2764]

@@malikthompson612 let's not talk about tuning because those tonals and sixes they had were tuned horrible. And our basses were tuned great just not to your liking cuz you like that doa bullshit 🤷🏾‍♂️
