@@grassrootsdrumming I started a little over a year ago. And YT has been where I go to learn new stuff so Ive seen a lot of beginner drummer videos. Iirc from watching this the other day, I like that you have a simple beat thats pretty easy to follow, integrating the kick while also talking about the importance of the high hat, keeping/changing time and an intro to time signatures. Its a lot of important stuff presented in an accessible way. 👍
@@MP-db9sw thank you so much. I tried googling it, but I don't know LIRC is❓ of course RC is ride cymbal :-) i'm very excited to build this channel. I just did a lot of recording today with more basics and fills. Since this channel is new, I'm rolling out my humor slowly. You have been warned!😝
@@MP-db9sw yes drum fills can be a mystery and so many learners will play something fast and flashy, but it's not musical, especially if our field and tempo is all jig jagged. If that makes sense? 👉 do you have a favorite style of music?
Nice start. May i suggest. The first 'one' is indeed hihat+base, but the first 'one' after the fill is crash+base. The rest of the band will be looking for that 'one' after the fill. You might as well get that in right at the beginning of learning. Don't forget the hihat hits of stem and tip of the stick.
@@perro0076 thanks so much! I plan out of basic outline, but then I just go and teach like if you're on the room in the crash was a little extra :-) but I think many viewers will benefit from your thoughts. I always love feedback! 👉 how long have you been playing drums?
@@grassrootsdrumming Hi. My wife and I have only just started. Still trying to nail basic grooves. We thought we were doing OK until our teacher threw that hihat technique at us. Also introduced basic paradidles for use in fill-ins.
@@perro0076 the shoulder tip takes some time to get used to and I definitely didn't want to teach it for very first lesson on TH-cam! However, I just recorded that yesterday. It's all about the journey!
This is a really good beginning lesson.

Oh yea, and fills. What they are, when to use them and an easy starter for a beginner.
