these videos are actually really helpful i am a saxophone player but this is good info for me so that i know and see/relate to what the drummer is doing.
I interpret most these as hertas over ruffs given the defined subdivision and the space between the 3rd and 4th note, so it's interesting to hear you approach it this way. Presenting it as a 4-stroke ruff does lead nicely into the 5-stroke. Great concept, thanks!
Hertas are a 3 note group with one note every 3 doubled. (Bleed, for instance.) The marcus 2-stroke ruff could be a kind of herta, and in fact you would play bleed with marcus ruffs. But it would only fit if you used a strict subdivision, and the 3 and 4 note ruffs are not hertas.
@@8020drummer I am aware they are different which is why I felt I'd mention it as 1:39 is a 4-stroke ruff but in the practical demonstrations I am hearing hertas instead, most simply demonstrated at 2:25. Am I somehow mistaken?
@@philipcullin983 bleed is a song by meshuggah where the drummer does hertas with his feet. the whole band does hertas but it's most known for the drummer
Hey Nate, I've been following you since about 2015 and I have to say, I've really seen an improvement in your videos. Not only do you seem more comfortable with the camera, but I feel like your playing has more intent behind it! It sounds good man!
Glad to see you broke 80,000subs. You deserve so much more. Loved the show and finally something that i tend to do naturally. Not having a theory based finger in my hands its nice ti recognize that what i do is a thing especially when marcus does it too. I'm setting my jazz kit up tomorrow to try my new bass drum out that i made. 10 out of 10 nate keep it up.
Nate, I just started throwing the 4 stroke ruff on the kit because of this video. Took me a few weeks to get them up to par, but dang! What great musical idea. They sound awesome. Thank you for making this video.
The terminology thing can be tricky when doing instructional vids. I try to mention all the potential names it may or may not have to try and keep it as broad as possible. Nice job on the vid!
Judging from that Black Coffee Roasting Company sweater and the recurring ESP t-shirt, I'm guessing you have some roots in Missoula. Wish I could have caught you playing drums around town. Good stuff, man! I really enjoy the channel!
I think Garibaldi does ruffs in one of his fills for the song Squib Cakes around the 6:30 mark? What a coincidence that I've been trying to figure out that fill the past couple of days and this video pops up 😂
Nate, thanks for the reminder on the ruff & the example using the rudement ruff's around the kit. What makes me laugh, is hearing other drummers complain about rudiments when we play many of them if not all (depending on the song) in the songs we play, anyway! I guess the jokes on us. We're playing rudiments one way or the other! Again, many thanks on your efforts in sharing these lessons!! Job well done!!!
You can actually play another variation on the 2 stroke marcus rough (if you can call it a variation) ... Making it a 3 stroke rough on one hand (can be useful sometimes) You can actually "push/pull" double up the upstroke ant fast twitch for the rimshot... However, it's very very tough to get it as fast as the examples nate gave here... It works best as ghost notes in a 16th note hip-hop groove feel... I feel like there's not a lot of people using it I would love to see Nate apply that In his playing...
Used to here this riff (ruff) on some of my older up tempo jazz LPs. If memory serves me correctly...one tune is by Cannonball Adderley Fun...off his Live at the Club. Please note I'm a bass player so I may be wrong. Enjoy and thanks again. th-cam.com/video/bRv9T06Gk74/w-d-xo.html
30 years would be joe Henderson to Branford to chris potter to mark turner to Walter smith to Ben Wendel. Nah, I’d say sax playing has undergone a similar odyssey.
have you changed grip from years of an other grip? i mean i often see you slice with your left hand. I'v changed grip from american to french after about 10 years with american. I still struggles with slice with my left hand and i have been playing french for 3 years :P But its not my highest priority when practicing
Love your content and your delivery. But, something's amiss: Please get rid of the white gaps in your acoustic foam in the background -- IT IS KILLING MY OCD! :D
?? A drag is 2 bounced notes on one hand and a third single note ( opposite hand). often accented but not necessarily- a ruff is 4 single strokes,,, last stroke most often accented but not necessarily--..
I only do subdivisions in the high school halls or in the shopping malls.
Conform, or be cast out...
WHY?

OH NO. [Nate gets cancelled again 😳😅🤣]

Not from me, buddy!
Isn't that wrong? Drags as codified by PAS are a double then a single.

Careful, bruh! Drummers is reeeeal sensitive about their terms out here! lol

I loved when Buddy Rich would use these in fills, especially in West Side Story. ;-)

How was your day? It was ruff. What are you snaring at? : )
oooooh we went there
What a drag
Good lesson on the ruffs. Tips like this are what help mortals understand the Gods. Thanks.
Yo so sick and simple and yet i never thought of it. Thanks!
I downloaded the transcript. I might be having more fun than I’m supposed to...uh oh here comes my next “most overused” riff ever! 😂🤣☮️☮️☮️
Great lesson Nate! Never thought about these as “ruffs” but I dig it! Into the shed...
FINALLY Someone went in on this topic. Great video Nate!! 🙌
i love to see the growth in quality for every one of your videos, keep up the good work :)

I do indeed. I did a clinic at ESP in June of 2019. Haven't been back this year because of COVID but hope to be back soon!
You deserve more subs, been a fan for years love ur stuff
Nice, great vid and really helpful. It really saved a lot of time trying to transcribe and figure it all out. Thanks!
Awesome man. Thanks for the break down
I love your stuff man!!!

That's pretty much exactly the purpose of rudiments as well as the etymology of the term. :)
Thank you very much for these awesome videos mate. Doing a really good job!
More of the doggie please
This was wonderful. Thank you.
Great lesson and great topic!
Great stuff!! You just gained a subscriber, Keep it up!
Been waiting for a vid like this.
Every fucking week a great video man! Thumbs up!
I am not a jazz drummer but I will use this
the snareeeeeeeeeee
Great lesson. Do more 😅
Can ruffs be played with 2 notes, preceding the single accented note? For example, rr L R. Because it kinda sounded like it.
Nate I did not get the skip step break down😂
great lesson :)
Great! Thank you!!
And funny 2👍👍👍🎼🎼🎼🎼

Would you say that jazz drumming has changed more in the past 30 years than the horn playing has?
30 years would be joe Henderson to Branford to chris potter to mark turner to Walter smith to Ben Wendel. Nah, I’d say sax playing has undergone a similar odyssey.
Hey man watch that left, it was little non left.
Hey remember when that dude told you to try swinging? Still my favorite comment
Wouldn't that just be considered single stroke four
