    I have been struggling with limb independence heavily after stopping drumming for a few years. Needed an exercise like this to relearn it the right way. I have a gig in a few weeks that I was stressing about, but after running through this a few times, I feel a lot better. Thank you for your generosity!

    As a self taught drummer, I recently realized that limb independence wont come without subdivision fluidity, but subdivision fluidity requires loads of limb independence....😐🤔see, its the rock and a hard place😮‍💨. I started writing out a drill similar to this but didn't know what would be the best sequence for such a drill, that would achieve said goal. I searched and searched to only find that MOST of these youtube drum "teachers" really only care about there channel and dont really teach... u know, the vitals, what we're actually needing. Thank you so much for this ACTUAL lesson, and especially, the confirmation of what i knew i needed to work on but wasn't sure the best route. Thank you again for ACTUALLY caring about us blind drummers and TRULY teaching a REAL drum lesson!

    I was on a double bill with Danilo Perez’s trio in the 90’s with a then unknown Antonio Sanchez on drums. I asked him how he became so fluent playing left foot clave (which he is ridiculously good at). He started with a similar approach with bass drum on “a” of one and “and” of two, but then it moves to incorporating hand/bass drum combinations as well while keeping left foot clave going.

    • @DimitriFantini

    This is all you need to get better at drumming in the beginner/intermediate level. I'm self learned, and have had some drumming lessons. I got the exercise to do the 4 singles variation accents, I was told to start with them, and then that will improve my skills. Many times you want it to be much more cool and advanced, just do the basics.

    • @DimitriFantini

    I saw the video. Thanks !
    One way I reach to practice with that was with independency, this mean: all three limbs keep one group and the free limb play though all the 16 variations. For example, right hand, right feet and left feet keep doing the variation 1, meanwhile the right hand play all the 16 variations. When you finish that only one limb change to the second variation (left hand for example), left feet and right feet keeps doing the 1 variation. Now, right hand play again the 16 variations. And so son. This is a nested loop. You can have more than 72000 combinations only with that.
    With that, you will have a very very very solid vocabulary (only for existence), you can multiply all those practices with accents, flam and doubles and you will get ~72.000 x 3 (at least).
    That's only if you count the binary subdivision. You can do the same with the triplets, quintuplets and 7-tuplets.
    Thanks for this!

    Cool. Brain had something similar on his VHS instructional in the 90s, Shredding Reppis on the Gnar Gnar Rad. The entire thing is available here on youtube.
    IIRC the kick was playing 1--U2--U3--U4--U
    Snare was on 2 & 4
    Hi Hat was straight 8th notes
    Right hand played all the partials on the ride.
    It REALLY helped me a lot when I was getting started.

    This is great stuff.
    I started with New Breed back in the 80's and Advanced Funk Studies. I remember seeing those > on the top of the beats and didn't bother with them. Until I got to final year highschool and realized how much those ghost notes make a difference in the feel and sound.
    I was starting on a book like in 1998 and it was very similar to this but I didn't have a computer or know how to do the notations with the accents.
    Dom Famularo RIP came out with a book in the early 2000's with Vic Firth. I was signed up to them to get free books etc. It was similar in a way to the Speed-Volume axis.
    Anyway, I see this as an excellent exercise that we should be doing it on a daily basis.
    I've been drumming since 86 and other than the few instances, I never played 5's except for perhaps a performance of Peaches En Regalia at my final college performance. I played in hard sort of proggy stuff but it was mostly fast unison stuff as a group but 5's are rare. The independence work is great though.
    Haha don't forget the voice. It helps when you get vocal parts.
    Dude, I'd recommend any new drummer to check this out! Good stuff.

    Then you can add the 3rd polyrhythm simultaneously over the top. It's in 13.

    Also one thing not mentioned on this is that exercises like these are best practiced with both right hand and left hand starts to get extra independence practice. Get good with one first and then try the other.

    This is brilliant. I'm fairly new to the drums. Today I was working on 1/16th note drum kick placement and trying to switch back to playing 1/8 notes. I was counting in 1/16th notes the whole time but when I went back to 1/8th notes I would mess me up because I was counting 1/16th but not hitting every number. When I'm doing those 1/8th note parts should I just go back to counting them that way?? If that makes sense?

    • @DimitriFantini

      you should be able to count just quarters, just 8ths, or all the 16ths while you change what you play! so first, pick one and do it really slowly until it starts to make sense to your brain :)

      @DimitriFantini thank you. That's what I've been doing but I decided to try it a different way.

    4:03 on this part you aren’t keeping your left foot going. Should I be? I am struggling to so I’d say yes. Any advice? I find my foot wants to go with the accent instead of on the 1.

    • @DimitriFantini
      @DimitriFantini  19 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      yes, you should be able to keep your left foot going on - quarters, off beat 8th notes (just the "ands"), all 8th notes, 2 and 4 only... as a start!

    You are not the first to do this,and that's all I will say. It's original how you present it.

    I KNEW the ostinato was coming! Lmao nooooooooo such a hard exercise to do in class with you but it's so helpful though! (I still dread it)

      next step, do it with baiao! and more!

    What other foot pattens do you suggest? The problem with the ostinato is that it traps my brain into thinking of samba like phrases when I really want to play rock fills

    • @DimitriFantini
      @DimitriFantini  28 วันที่ผ่านมา

      the next one (my teacher gave the pattern to me in the same lesson) is the baiao foot pattern.
      then do all the simple ones and get them all comfortable:
      quarters
      8ths
      one foot or the other
      both in unison
      alternating
      etc etc
      have fun!

    As a heads up your notation requires a time signature before, otherwise 4x16th notes does not = whole bar. You "tabs" / notation are in 1/4.

    Let's all show this video to everyone who thinks drumming is just banging the kit and looking cool on stage.

  • @momcilodjujic1
    @momcilodjujic1 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Is it for independence or accuracy? Is it good for begginer drummer to learn (1y of active playing)?

    • @DimitriFantini
      @DimitriFantini  วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      absolutely! go for it, and keep it slow and clean!

    When I put my name and email address using your link to get the PDF, it takes my to your page after. But after 2 days of waiting I hasn't receive anything. Is this a common issue? By the way, great video; I love the channel as someone who recently just got back into the drums.

    • @DimitriFantini

      not a common issue, what's your email address? I can help fix it and then can delete the comment so your email address isn't public

      @DimitriFantini  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      haha these are the Paiste PSTX 16” Swiss Hi Hats. Happened to have them on the kit for another recording when I sat down to film, but I think they worked well to make the left foot chicks stick out 😂
