Finally a video that explains the mysterious foot technique that many have asked about. If you have a question, leave a comment.
There also is a new video online about blast beats (up to 280bpm!): • Strange Blast Beat Tec...
Also check out my brothers artist page: www.artists.de/Micha_Bela_Groe...
In this video I do not use triggers, its all just the sound from the camera microphone.
I use a Pearl Demon Drive double pedal.
My pedal settings:
- spring tension is on maximum
- footboard is on the longboard position
- direct drive adjustment is on position "H" (heavy feel)
- beater holder is on position "B" (power)
- footboard angle adjustment is a little bit lower than the initial setting (about 1mm on the gauge)
- beater angle is on initial setting
- distance between beater holder and center of the beater head is about 13.5cm
- I use Sonor beaters and with all this settings the distance between beater and drumhead is about 13cm
If the Demon Drive is not your first pedal I would highly recommand to put the settings as close as possible to how your old pedal was set up. If the Demon Drive IS your first pedal I would recommand to start with lower spring tension and greater distance between beater and head.
I hope I didnt miss something!

That's a great idea but unfortunately I can't do that because of the structure of my desk (I can't fit a double bass pedal under there!). I find that air drumming helps out quite a bit, even if the song is too fast.

THANK YOU for ignoring the temptation to show off and instead focusing on actually HELPING people. - I'm a newbie and i'm obsessed with being able to double-kick so fast that it sounds like i'm dropping a bucket full of marbles. - ALL of the guys i admire insist on playing cleanly first, so that's what i'm trying to do. - I've been scouring youtube looking for help and your video is exactly what i wanted. - Thanks again man, i really appreciate the time and energy you took to make this video.

I've been drumming since about 1980 I play double bass licks here and there but have never developed my double bass licks to point like this....as long as I've been around drums and playing this is the one video you should pay attention to first. Master this technique before any others I suggest. I will work on it too. This technique definitely shows how it can be done without being taxing on energy or cause you to start tensing up which slows you down. This is the most effortless technique explained well and using the least amount of energy for the best results are key. Just dont get in the double bass rut and forget the MAIN GOAL is to make the song sound its best and many times it takes playing simple... I hear so many drummers play too much fancy licks than what the song would require and it takes away from it too often. cheers.

I cant say how long exactly but for around the past year Ive been working on this technique - thanks to this video I am now able to (starting to be able) play dbl bass 16ths consistently and for "extended" periods of time between the tempo's 180 to 200bpm BEFORE working on this technique I could only play UP TO 180bpm using singles (alternating RLRL) - NOW I am able to play comfortably at 180 no stress or tension at all and up to about 200 BPM. This is a significant increase in speed for me, and best of all it is solid and consistent and much less effort than playing RLRL at slower tempos Thank you for this awesome video

@someguydudeGAME
@someguydudeGAME 8 лет назад
this is sort of like the "push pull" technique. It's a really awesome and efficient way of doing it, excellent tutorial.
@nenissaK
@nenissaK 7 лет назад
I think that's a really good description, like pushing and pulling your heel (although your "toe" pushes the leg up again on the second stroke). Tommorrow's 4 months since I first started learning this technique. Day 1: 140 bpm for a few seconds before messing up. Now: 200 for 10 minutes goes almost perfectly, and I can barely do 3 times 10 minutes 210 bpm (weirdly nowadays it's my thighs at those tempos that start to hurt, instead of the shins back then when I started to practise, because the faster I play the more I start by pushing my heel down partially with the thigh also). And yes, I think this is a really smart technique. Although for the first few days it feels like you'll never learn to actually use it and play loud and clean..
@matenorth
@matenorth 6 лет назад
The same happens to my strong foot thigh. Its very strange because i use ankle motion only. I use floating technique and my knee is slightly elevated. I dont know why it hurts
@InsomniakDrums
@InsomniakDrums 10 лет назад
it's essentially just heel-toe technique, but keeping your foot grounded on the pedal the whole time, and instead of "diddles" it's alternating. (essentially mohler for your feet)

@RazeTheWeak
@RazeTheWeak 4 года назад
Dude! Something crazy happened to me tonight. I accidentally learned your technique. I have been working through Marthyn’s bass drum mastery course over the last few weeks. Been doing well with ankle technique and foot foot technique. When I have extra time and motivation I play around with rudiments and other exercises with my feet. Was doing a build up going back-and-forth between quarter notes and eighth notes and somehow started catching the rebound of the pedal. I froze for a second because it shocked me. It wasn’t the heel toe movement that I have worked on in the past. It felt even more effortless and each stroke was just as powerful as the next. They were also evenly spaced eighth notes and not doubles. Once I understood the sensation and motion it took me about 10 minutes to be able to play flams and unison 8th notes using the constant release technique. I am under the impression that not a lot of guys ever learn how to master this movement. It was like a lightbulb coming on when it happened. When I was a kid I used to play around with heel toe with my feet on the floor. I would always go right heel, left heel, right toe, then left toe. Somehow it seems like I am almost destined to learn how to master this technique and coordinate it into a smooth single stroke roll. I will be searching through your videos to try to find out exercises to help me turn this into one continuous single stroke roll because I feel like I already have the hardest part out-of-the-way learning the new technique, and I don’t think that there is any other technique that will allow you to play as fast with such a little tension and energy expenditure. Wish me luck!

You seem to nail the very technique I'm striving to get operationnal for me now. I like the fact you "unbury the beater", I do it myself because it fits me regarding sound AND feel. I find it especially difficult to achieve this with both feet at the same time while keeping volume low. Congratulations dude !

@wanjanechtangroeger

I had the same problem in the beginning - it takes a while for the shin muscles to get used to the motion especially when you played heel up before. It may help to practise a bit heel down to train the shin muscles.

@nenissaK
@nenissaK 8 лет назад
Just started with this technique a couple weeks ago for the first time. The weird thing is, my left foot is a lot better - relaxed and still as clean as right foot - at this technique than my right foot. The reason is, my right shin (muscle) starts to hurt when playing over a minute at 160 bpm, no matter how relaxed I am. I can barely make it cleanly for 10 minutes because of the pain in the right shin (10 minutes just because wood metronome on RU-vid is 10 min long and I use them to learn this new technique). Maybe that is because I have more "experience" of playing heel down with my left foot (on the hihat I occasionally play heel down with my left foot). Anyone else?
@wanjanechtangroeger
@wanjanechtangroeger 8 лет назад
I would recommand to check your seat and pedal positions - maybe your right pedal is nearer or farer away from your seat or at a different angle? Are the pedal settings the same right and left?
@nenissaK
@nenissaK 8 лет назад
They are the same - I blame lack of practising. This reminds me of some jazz drummers who switched from heel down to heel up because of the shin getting tired in prolonged and/or fast playing. Just gotta do it more. Thanks for replying!
@pbonk1987
@pbonk1987 8 лет назад
I am having the same issue, not so much the pain in the right chin (Although when I started this, I had that issue) but it seems like my left foot has more finesse, it's cleaner. Almost feels better, easier to do. But I've chalked it up as, I do a lot of triplets and stuff, so although my left foot never leads, it's NECESSARY for it to be on point. More practice it is!!

@lahelah9375

@ianantolik3273
@ianantolik3273 8 лет назад
It is heel toe
@wanjanechtangroeger
@wanjanechtangroeger 8 лет назад
+ian antolik There are 2 main reasons why I don't call this technique "heel-toe": First of all I never create a bass drum hit by hitting the pedal with my heel. The energy/pressure for each hit comes from the ball of my foot. I know that many people would still call it ht but the more accurate term would be "toe-down". The second reason: Presumably 99% of the drummers who claim to use heel-toe play double strokes on the bass drum (right-right-left-left). I use single strojkes (right-left-right-left) and since singles usually sound much better on an acoustic kit this makes a huge difference. I would call this "heel-up-heel-down".
@bearlxrd
@bearlxrd 8 лет назад
+MorganvanHelsing wouldnt you be applying force with your heels if you had longboard pedals? that's what I'm seeing in your footwork, I'm just curious because it really looks like it from what I've seen from drummers that switched from regular pedals
@ianantolik3273
@ianantolik3273 8 лет назад
+nate mowles I have a long bored and I did it just how he said and it's just heel toe it's nothing strange so yeah it's heel toe
@wanjanechtangroeger
@wanjanechtangroeger 8 лет назад
+nate mowles Actually I have my Demon Drive pedal set up as a longboard. I also played Axis longboards before but my heel always hits the ground or the very end of the pedal board. So the force for each hit is always applied via the ball of my foot and it does not matter if I play long or shortboards.

There are many faster drummers - but I think there are not many who can play 250 without triggers and still get a good sound out of it.
@dwaynebarksdale5937
@dwaynebarksdale5937 10 лет назад
jordanvag With the right settings, the drum brain- not the triggers that are hooked up to it- allows for LOTS of dynamics. Perhaps you should thoroughly think through your assertions before commenting, because all you idiots out there who think using triggers is cheating or make you play better or faster are just plain WRONG. Get your facts straight- you can do that by actually USING SOME TRIGGERS & A DRUM BRAIN & EXPERIMENT. Then your opinion will matter.
@dwaynebarksdale5937
@dwaynebarksdale5937 10 лет назад
Yes, i have & use an Alesis DM5 module. That doesn't make me faster by any stretch. It DOES make fast double bass more articulate when there's a loud guitar/ bass assault accompanying the drums. Use of triggers/ technology doesn't make someone a pussy. i hate opinions not based in logic, fact, or experience.
@wanjanechtangroeger
@wanjanechtangroeger 10 лет назад
Dwayne Barksdale jordanvag You are both right. Triggers CAN be used in a way that would feel like cheating for me. As Dwayne said it all depends on the settings of the drum module. I use triggers primarily when playing live because it seems to be almost impossible for most sound guys to get a good acoustic sound out of the bass drum. I often had the problem that my bass drum was not audible at all or that nothing was audible except the bass drum during double bass drumming. The very clean sounding sound out of the drum module seems to be easier to handle. Thats why I see triggers as a usefull tool for making live performances sound better.
