I’m Lucid nightmare or lucid, if you want to call me that. I play the snare drum and you can find a lot of content here! Mostly snare drumming videos, but sometimes low budget skits about drumming!
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you see this video when it was 42 seconds long and when I failed midway through, I am SO sorry! I forgot to trim out the first attempt! D:
No offense or anything but I don’t think you are qualified to be telling people how to play doubles, good consistency, or what good technique looks like. Also if you have good definition between accent and tap heights then having random accents won’t make it sound inconsistent. You’ll get there eventually but right now you’re far from the level you need to be at before you can teach things like that to others. The one thing that I agree with in here is to learn rudiments.
If you wanna get technical, those aren’t triplets, they’re just the sticking for threes. “Triplet” refers to the rhythm of 3 notes in the space of 2. Moving flam taps around is a great exercise though
Well, there's a lot of drum pads that make various sounds. Some of them are sizzle, some of them are weird sounded. For a quiet sounding pad, I would suggest using the one I'm using in the video you commented, the *Vic Firth Stock pad* . It has a soft rubber surface, and since it's soft it dampens the sound a lot, making the sound very creamy! For a normal sounding pad, I'm not really sure because half of my drum pads have one of those loud sizzle sounds. If I had to pick a normal drum pad, I'd pick the *Moboog drum pad* . It has a hard rubber surface, and since it's hard it doesn't dampen the sound. Hope this helps! :D
I was expecting this to be like the Rowan Atkinson Invisible Drums sketch where the sticks were mimed but the sounds of the stick hitting the pad would still be played
Looking great! I recommend doing some excersizes found on youtube, they help with rhythms and even sight reading if you're up for it. A channel i'd recommend is called "Sight Read Drums", they're a good channel if you don't wanna scope the internet for warmups/excersizes haha (Link: www.youtube.com/@SightReadDrums)
