This guy is an absolute machine! Great stuff! Love the videos. I’m 50 years old. I used to play the kit when I was in band in high school. Then I played a couple of years with a few guys after high school, but I haven’t played since. Your videos are making me want to go buy a kit and see if still have some chops! Also, have you ever invited Mike Mangini to do a video? I would love to see him in y’all’s environment!
@@bullainsworth3130 We're so glad these videos are getting you fired up again. If not a full drum set, you could ease back in with a practice pad and sticks! Mike Mangini is definitely on our list -- hopefully, we can have him out one day soon 🤞. Thanks for checking out our videos!
Legend ? Who is that actually ? Ahhhh a youtube/ tiktok drummer okok .... People these days are depressing to read . Not taking away is talent but ive seen drummer as good or better in my home town and they are not legend , just like him he isnt one, far from it , lets see where he is in 10 years .
@@JayCord00 first off there's zero chance a drummer in your hometown is on his level, and he's a legend because instead of typing negative nonsense trying to discredit other people's achievements he has worked on his craft every day with a great attitude to spread the gift of drums to people around the world. He is making a living playing an instrument and more successful than he could have dreamed being a drummer in 99% of bands today. It's always the people who are self-conscious of their own lack of achievements that feel the need to put down others.
This dudes a monster!! With instructions like this and daily practice there’s no reason why drummers shouldn’t be jaw dropping. I really wish RU-vid was around when I was younger because the wealth of knowledge that’s available……for free is mind blowing. I had to spend a ton of money on different types of one on one lessons and instructional VHS video’s which were hit or miss if you really learned anything from them. The one on one lessons taught me not just what to play but how to play it and how to read it.
Love that he refers to the marathon exercise as a "pyramid scheme". Like all you gotta do is recruit two friends to do this exercise, then they each recruit two friends, and then you get fast feet
I've been implementing your one handed practice routines and it's so much fun! It's so rewarding to get better at these patterns and I can already feel how they enhance my drumming. Keep working hard, you're an inspiration, man! ✌️
These are solid exercises, but when learning need to understand the correct way to use the pedal. A lot of beginners, myself included at one time, don't do the research. Its important to stress that and learn that early. I had so many mistakes to correct from not learning the correct way a pedal works. The angle of the pedal, positioning/placement of the foot on the pedal, angle of the back heel (like supplementary angles at and angle itself.) Those are the real secrets. These are fantastic exercises to learn for sure. I've been enjoying your videos for a while now. Love the collab with Drumeo as well.
Very Nice! I'm a drummer, last year I had a very serious accident, a drunk lawyer got in my way, I fractured both femurs, left tibia, pelvis, humerus and left wrist! I was in the ICU for 2 months in a serious condition, I was on a motorcycle, I had just left the supermarket with my wife, she broke her right knee and a toe on her left foot, I'm studying music at university with a degree in drums and percussion by the IFPE of Belo Jardim-PE, I am from Garanhuns, the doctors said that I would never walk again, after 5 months of the accident, I walked again, today I walk, I play the drums, not like before, there are still many limitations, but I'm coming back little by little, and I'm going to show everyone the power of my God! I'm going to study this video a lot at home to improve! ❤❤❤
Dude I love your videos, congratulations on getting a course on drumeo!!! Also thank you drumeo for inviting the best drummers out there to teach online. Invaluable resource
Nice exercises and very practically presented. At first sight it looked to be too complicated when I've seen the damned note sheets :), but when you showed the workflow step by step then I got it! You motivated to not stop with drums. Wish you the best and I would like to see your next challenges with the Drumeo team. ( Maybe some Jazz or Blues Jams?:P) 🙏❤💖 🥁
My wonderful insanely talented sir your sessions are a gift to drummers of all ages of any disposition or level. I’ve been playing for 30 years and you give me fresh perception. There’s always time to learn something new and thank you for your time, sir.
I'm not even a drummer and yet I'm more inspired by this to pickup a drumset and practice than any videos about my native instrument. Hellz yeah man. 🤘🤘
I am beyond happy to see all of your hard work paying off man. Excellent lesson. Side note, knowing that English isn't your first language...I must say, respectfully... that you have changed the way I am going to say pyramid forever. Basically...if someone I respect so much...like you...comes along and pronounces a word I have known for 40 years... in such a new and interesting way.... I will accept that you are just better at saying that word than I am. Lol. I love you man. You have changed my life....by kicking ass at your life.
I love how the open playing looks compared to cross over, if I played the same thing.. you still look so much cooler with your style. Respect brother! Your a machine!
Dont forget to do these with your off foot for a good even work out. Also switch which hand keeps time and which hand alternates. Get used to "keeping time" on your own, without the aid of audio cues or limb movements. It's something that's always fascinated me, when you switch the parts each limb plays. Like play the exact same groove, but switch the snare and BD. Can be a real mind melter on even simple grooves.
I love each of these videos, however may I suggest that you have a short video on how to properly setup your Foot pedal on your Bass drum to get that best reaction to how each person plays. Spring tension….beater height….things like that.
Muy buen video aunque también se agradecería que explicara los ajustes del pedal y la tensión del parche porque son puntos que nunca se tratan y también son importantes Un saludo y a seguir repartiendo
Hi Drumeo it's a pleasure to watch and learn from your videos, I would like to know what metronome is using El Estepario Siberiano because I can see it on the phone right in minute 1:41 and I'm finding for that kind of metronome to practice on my own.
excellent video im hyped to add it to my watmups. Drumeo can we request a countdown before they start any samples so we can play along? sometimes itll cut to drummers playing the lick right away and itd be super helpful to have a small countdown so we can play and start at the same time
Nice guy. Also, I feel like he left out some notes about his foot technique. He was clearly playing two different ways (sliding back/forth and shifting his weight back). Would love to learn more about that.
