Disco you mean. House music was actually invented by DJ Frankie Knuckles and Jesse Saunders however House music actually derives from Disco music it just has a stronger and more mechanical percussion and baseline.
best drum lesson i've had in years. excellent material here.

"So if you notice I dont have a drum machine: I was the drum machine back then!" - Priceless!!! And so, so, beautiful and interesting for anyone interested in what we call today Electronic Dance Music's History.
Earl Young > legend. And I *love* the Trammps, especially their first album. Even seen 'em live once way back. Earl of course also did vocals. Love his vocal intro to my favorite Trammps song, "Where Do We Go From Here."
I also know that there is a simple drum fill that happens on that "four on the floor" classic disco groove. The most common one is on the 4th beat....on the first half of 4, do the snare hit, then on the 2 sixteenths of the second part of 4, do 2 more snare drum hits double-timed. Finally, do a blast beat of sorts - cymbal crash on 1 and the bass drum hit on 1 at the same time, and then go back to the disco basic groove with the 2nd half of one with the open hi-hat again. You hear this fill in lots of early classic disco songs, and some later ones too. I also know that the basic disco groove of open hi-hatting on every eighth was inspired by first the beginning years of reggae, and then, later on, ska music, which both have that type of off-beating. Later on in American rock history, this was known in the drum set performances as skanking. But in disco-grooving, you only skank on the "open hi-hats."
This explains PHONK HOUSE music and basic House music like Bass House, my fav genres, woww, this is the Man that invented the 4 on the floor for most songs I like! :DDD
A lifetime of cardio..................that four on the floor, studio time, concerts, etc that's like doing an exercise bike for 8 hours a day for 30 years. Plus he looks like he generally took care of himself
Pretty much the same exact beat that became house music. It's no shock that some called house music "disco's revenge". Also the comment everyone loves, "I was the drum machine". I'm assuming that back in the '70s the drum machine technology wasn't there yet to really pull off his beats and that sound. I mean, I love the 808, but even the 808 didn't have his sound. Maybe the 909 finally could completely replicate him. So back then it was just all analog.
It was a documentary called "Disco" on NED1, (NED 1 now called NPO1) broadcasted on november 29, 2013. Have the full documentary unfortunately no longer
the songs listed below had a very distinctive drum beat that i say was indicative of early disco. sons of robin stone - got to get you back Philly Devotions - I Just Can't Sat Goodbye - sister sledge - love don't go through no changes love committee - one day of peace trammps - where do we go from here trammps - love epidemic. trammps - i know that feeling
Came here because of a new track "HUGEL, Stefy de Cicco, Hugo Cantarra - 4 to the Floor (feat. Nikol Apatini) [Official Lyric Video]". This seems not that 4 to the Floor, but interesting anyway
It's a shame how hip-hop has wasted generations of black talent. No musicians anymore. Just fast talkers screaming over the recycled digital sounds traveling out of their MacBooks.
Fast talkers really means The lyricism is delivered rhythmically in a speech oriented intonation. The no musicians anymore means A high percentage of beats were sample based or produced by a Single beat-maker on a drum machine and synthesizer as opposed to hiring session musicians. The screaming or shouty rappers are Lil Jon, MOP, KL, Hostyle of Screwball, Dark Man X aka DMX, Plies, Many of the crunk rappers, Yung Wun, Waka flocka flame (both studio and live). Recycle digital sound traveling out of their MacBooks is FL Studio and more popular software using stock sounds no matter the style. There are also rappers who have a more laid back, relaxed flow include Guru, Slick Rick, Rakim, Manchild, the CUF, Kero one, Phonte, MF Doom, Method man, MED, Lewis Parker
"As you'll notice, I don't have a drum machine. I WAS the drum machine back then"
RIGHT ON
Heather Ferreira Lol
DJ Yella from NWA is heavily influenced by this dude
Legend...
th-cam.com/video/taO1v-5zd4s/w-d-xo.html
3:13 Thanks for that! 😁
I can barely pat my head and rub my belly. This guy has 4-5 things going... Man.
And talking...
This guy started a revolution. Even rock has incorporated disco influence into the genre.
Also many 80's dance songs
Dave Grohl used a lot of disco style on the nevermind album
This dude ain't lying, he is a MACHINE.
He developed GROOVE.
Him talking through his beats literally makes it sound like a song, I love it
It is! Called “ I don’t have a drum machine”. Amazing song
@@cmancentralallen6414 at first i thought you were being sarcastic but now my life has changed
@@schkope Such a good song. Glad I could help. We’re friends now lol.
Haha holy that’s so true
Especially at arkund 3:20
This man basically invented house lol. Amazing. I love how it all evolved and connects.
Yes but like the predessesor even before House. its like Disco, Dance, Electronic Dance, House. Something like that
Disco you mean. House music was actually invented by DJ Frankie Knuckles and Jesse Saunders however House music actually derives from Disco music it just has a stronger and more mechanical percussion and baseline.
@@Warappe69I'm very late but Dance and Electronic Dance aren't really genres as much as they are generic umbrella terms
@@WiloPolis03there are many sub-genres, but the main being electronic dance when it comes to the style. Disco is a whole different genre now a days.
best drum lesson i've had in years. excellent material here.
"So if you notice I dont have a drum machine: I was the drum machine back then!" - Priceless!!! And so, so, beautiful and interesting for anyone interested in what we call today Electronic Dance Music's History.
This guy is good, he don't lose his concentration. Keep the beat going. Good stuff 👍
I LOVE IT! 😝😝😝😝 Who else was dancing while he was doing this?
Eloquently explained! Even someone like me gets it! I just love having the world at our fingertips! :-D
Thanks for showing this. I always wondered how disco cymbals were done
This man is a genius. Thanks for the lesson.👍🏼🔥🔥
BEAUTIFUL EXPLANATION ---I WAS THE DRUM MACHINE
Still disco ❤
Earl Young! What a Star!
The coolest older guy that I know! Really interesting! Many thanx Earl!!
I kept expecting a bass line to kick in :)
Earl Young > legend. And I *love* the Trammps, especially their first album. Even seen 'em live once way back. Earl of course also did vocals. Love his vocal intro to my favorite Trammps song, "Where Do We Go From Here."
Thank you for uploading this
Props to the sound recording engineer. He is banging away on the bass drum and the vocals are being picked up as if there are no drums being played.
I love disco
3:18 "I don't have a drum machine, I was the drum machine back then"
This man is crazy talented!!
Dude has an amazing voice. So powerful
I DANCE TO THIS BEAT EVERY DAY ^.^
Stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ah, ah, ah!
The House music bounce at 2:17 🔥🔥🔥
Not quite. Still needs that backbeat at 2:54. That's what I consider "proper" house.😎
The beat with the hi hat at around 2:25 was in Heart of Glass. Love that little beat

Earl Young. I just watched it tonight

Beautiful
This man was born in 1940, but he looks like he's in his 50s!
black don't crack
A lifetime of cardio..................that four on the floor, studio time, concerts, etc that's like doing an exercise bike for 8 hours a day for 30 years. Plus he looks like he generally took care of himself
I don't think a man named Earl Young would ever look old ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
He looks Earl Young for his age.
This is where the confusion comes.
Really awesome video! That man is a great drummer!
unimaginable nobody thought of that ever before
Awesome.
"Four on the floor, and one more four than the Four before!"
this is so sickkkkk
At 2:16, I like when the hi hat starting sounding like that. I dont know why, but it makes the song so much more danceable
Pretty much the same exact beat that became house music. It's no shock that some called house music "disco's revenge".

Thank god for Earl Young..
MFSB is my dna . Earl Young is a genius!
MFsb runs through my blood!
Really like this! :)
Nuckin futz!..Hialeah
THIS IS THE SAMPLE ON FOUR ON THE FLOOR
Straight outta Philadelphia!!!!
Earl young and Earl stubblfield both Genius.
Someone sample this demonstration into a song. Still disco.
Very useful information, I'm a bassist, thanks for sharing
Look up four on the floor-Latroit for some fun
Cool.
"I was the drum machine back then".
😂😂😂😂😂
awesome
Would it be a stretch to say this man basically invented disco?
No, it wouldn't! Dude single-handedly took drumming, shoot, soul music, period, out of the 1960s!
No, not at all.
when he added the hi hat i made the stank face lol
this is the link to the documentarywww.npo.nl/disco/07-02-2015/VPWON_1238293
This is crazy to think about.
I do not have the coordination for even this, holy crap I coild never play drums.
Well, anyway, great explanation.
Hey you can if you tried. I feel the same way about guitar, but I'm gonna try to learn.
This is the most basic shit you can do on drums, too.
It's like anything in life, practice enough and you'll be able to do it! (except fly...)
Thank you!
very interesting, what's the name of the documentary? I'd like to watch the whole thing
It was a documentary called "Disco" on NED1, (NED 1 now called NPO1) broadcasted on november 29, 2013.
Have the full documentary unfortunately no longer
отлично!
Damn good drummer.
Add the Stones "Miss you" to this beat.
Grroooooovy !!!!❤❤❤
the songs listed below had a very distinctive drum beat that i say was indicative of early disco.
sons of robin stone - got to get you back
Philly Devotions - I Just Can't Sat Goodbye -
sister sledge - love don't go through no changes
love committee - one day of peace
trammps - where do we go from here
trammps - love epidemic.
trammps - i know that feeling
por videos assim que eu amo a internet
Earl Young was THE best drummer ever!!
And now I know why the mutant hijacker from tiberian sun says "four on the floor"... because he can hijack any vehicle and make it rock
All metal, mainstream and extreme, can be traced back to this
Here bc of the latest My HeroAcademia chapter.
yea lmfao
Hell yes!
got me on this one xD
same came here cause of that haha
Same lmfao
the hardest button to button
NICE
Came here because of a new track "HUGEL, Stefy de Cicco, Hugo Cantarra - 4 to the Floor (feat. Nikol Apatini) [Official Lyric Video]". This seems not that 4 to the Floor, but interesting anyway
How does this video have thumbs down? WTF?
I remember seeing this in a film. What documentary is this from?
Ehy, nice video! Do you think is possible to re-use the audio from this videoclip?
Wow! He started disco? His royalty checks must be enormous. LOL
Still the back bone of EDM think about that for a sec!
80's uses a lot of disco elements
Killer
Nice''
Hey. Anyone know the song that starts playing towards the end?
Silver Convention Fly robin fly 1975
Not sure why I keep trying to read the subtitles
How high are those cymbals
So this is how the snare on the 2 and 4 started? Ever?
No. That started back in the 20’s.
Is all disco four on the floor
And lo House music is created 😊
It is kind of great when you invent a music style. Let me gues USA made it!
Multitasking , this dood is running Pentium 50 lol
whos here from whitcliffe
0_o waow
schitterend!!!
when i started the video, thought the guy was speaking swedish or something
T is echt random dat dit op Nederlandse tv was
Wall full of platinum records- grabs drum sticks- proceeds to play the most basic beat I've ever heard in my life
Billie Jean.
Philly is near the bottom of my favourite music styles. Violins? Bwah!
Who here from tiktok ?
My hero academia chapter 171
Lol, I come here, 3 years later, at that very moment. Good video.
Boku no hero

You sure hip hop is the blame or technology? Hip Hop is not the only genre of music who uses technology.
Fast talkers really means The lyricism is delivered rhythmically in a speech oriented intonation. The no musicians anymore means A high percentage of beats were sample based or produced by a Single beat-maker on a drum machine and synthesizer as opposed to hiring session musicians.

House, synth pop, new wave, ambient/new age, techno, trance, dubstep, “freestyle”, breakbeat garage, 4x4 garage, and DnB use technology too.
