    You are spot-on with identifying the components that go toward developing accurate subdivision. It's something that I have also been working on for a few years, ever since I heard Benny Greb talk about displaced click & gap click. My personal take on this, is that it's vitally important to work at slow tempos (sometimes starting around 40 bpm). Working on the hypothesis, "If you can't make it sound good at slow tempos, it won't help to speed it up" has proven to be a game-changer for me. It seems to me that the biggest mistake a drummer can make is to push the tempo before they have a solid command of the musicality of what they are practicing. So, I find myself examining every motion to be sure it is the most efficient I can make it (looks elegant & feels fluid), every note placement to be sure it is accurate, and the dynamics (or touch) of everything I hit to make sure they reflect the music. Increasing the tempo before I've satisfied all of these conditions usually does more harm than good. Please keep doing what you're doing, because your videos always get me thinking.

    Nate you're absolutely correct. During my pandemic practice I was able to focus on some things I wanted to do for decades, since the 70s, but with life being what it is, it took something of this magnitude to slow life down. I also battled a long bout with shingles for several months and couldn't sit at a kit till I began to heal so there was plenty of time to reflect on what I wanted to do to rebuild myself after all those years of playing backbeat music. I desperately needed to get back into re-developing my Jazz chops since I'm getting up there in age. During my reflection period I started to write down the most important tenets of drumming that I needed to focus on. I created a sign that I hung in my practice space to reinforce what I believe is number one on that list that reads, "If it's not on the grid, it's just slop." I had been thinking about lessons learned from my teachers and band directors when I was in school as a kid. One thing that kept coming up in rehearsals was the idea of subdivisions. One thing I remember that was quite profound was a statement one of them made about not just being aware of the notes we play and their placement within the subdivision, but the rests and the space between the notes as well. In practice, this begins with playing something agonizingly slow so you not only perceive all of the notes, rests and spaces but you can better focus on the physical motions that enable you to properly place the notes you play. Developing that is what's helped me develop a better feel and control over everything I play. I can still remember my wind ensemble director screaming at the woodwinds, "SUB-DI-VIDE DAMMIT!!!" It was funny at the time but he got results. He would work individually with kids and get them to achieve that awareness and in a short time that wind ensemble became a juggernaut.

    Totally agree that this stuff makes all the difference. Subdivisions, micro time, whilst it can be super boring to practise it is so important. I have my own practise method for this stuff, the important thing is to take timekeeping seriously and inspect yourself often - there is slow motion video on phones nowadays, just saying…..

    What you really saying is everyone should be able to play thrash metal. Let me explain.
    In thrash and hardcore punk the drums usually have this fast double time rhythm, when you have a loud snare drum on every even 8th note/16th note. It makes the music energetic, but it also might confuse unfamiliar listeners, let alone players (Metallica's "Fight fire with fire" plays around with this confusion).
    When I learned to hear the downbeat the proper way and don't get confused, it really made my time better, like you said. So yeah - everyone should go listen to some off beat stuff🤘👍

    I dig it. I practice with a metronome on the beat on a semi regular basis. Over the years it hard helped my time A LOT. I read a while back to try beats on off beats as you describe.
    I tried it once and was clueless on how to make it work. But you did a great demonstration on how to start. I'm gonna start playing with off beat 8ths tonight!
    Thank you so much.

    I uploaded a video about subdivision recently- specifically I tried indicating the subdivisions subtly with the kick drum. Often we use the hats or ride, ghost notes etc to indicate the subdivision but anytime we play anything smaller than quarter notes, subdivisions can be experienced.

    Thanks for this, Nate. The absolutely MOST challenging thing about 80/20 drumming stuff (for me, anyway) is the 16th note offbeat metronome practice.

    I always felt like I had an advantage when I first started playing drums because of the years I spent playing guitar beforehand. Now I understand exactly why that is, I had put a lot of practice into lead guitar playing which also requires you to have a good grasp on subdivisions so when I got on the kit my mind already had that concept drilled into it.

  • @Jay-Go
    @Jay-Go 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This is a good and interesting way to talk about the concept of subdividing. While it's all semantics, I come at it from the "empty space" perspective instead of the "filled space" perspective...if that makes sense. These days, everyone is so set on filling every gap with a note(s) that I feel we're overlooking the importance of silence or breathing room between notes. Again, an awareness of subdivision from either perspective leads to the same goal. I'm inclined to believe that feeling and listening to a space first is maybe a bit more eye-opening than filling a space with sound. To be completely candid, I just think that sitting out a half/quarter/eighth/sixteenth note can open your eye to just how much space there actually is AS YOU APPROACH THE TARGET BEAT...usually beat 1 of the next bar.
    When I get students to listen for that kind of stuff, you can see the light bulbs go on when they "see" how everyone tends to beat 1...or drag to beat 1 if the lick is beyond their capabilities.
    Anyhoo, this is a great topic, man. Good one!

    Thanks for bringing this into my focus again. I knew about it, practiced its little bit aaaand let it slide like always. But I am now in a spot where the tight playing has become soooo much more important and my practice routine has changed greatly for the better. So it's time to hop on the train to Metronome-Offbeat-City again and practice that shit. I am soooo tempted to start with the offbeat 16th notes but I know I have to work through the 8ths first.
    Thanks again for the inspiration !

    I've been crashing myself through metronome work since my last recording - as I started practicing a new hand technique and didn't realize I started subconciously applying it at all tempos, though it's only supposed to happen at higher tempos.
    I work with 16th notes on the metronome - with all notes clicking - it leaves no room for pushing and pulling. I know at some point I'm going to have to get move away from it, so this lesson will absolute be a god-sent.

  • @decaftundra
    @decaftundra 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I took some lessons with Jacob Evans at some point and he stressed on the importance of first identifying at which tempo your perception of the 16th off beat is failing. He asked me to take a relatively low tempo (like 60bpm) and make the metronome play 8th notes and then try to "sing" the 16th off beat. If it was too fast for me, slowing down and if it was too easy, speed up until I would reach the point where I would start to feel it was beginning to fail. That tempo would be my base line to start working on it and then increase by 5bpm every week. And I think it's brilliant because it kind of stressed the psychological side of it without involving the coordination side of the instrument to figure out how to start. It also allowed me to eliminate that intermediate step of trying to hear those upbeat. Just my 2 cents.

I thought about some sort of "word game mnemonic" that might help to switch into it immediately...any Idea ? BTW I practice that by shifting the 16th off beat forth and back e.g. any other bar (may be not so good to build consistency)...also a nice challenge (but here slower temps and still always in a 1e&ah-approach...)

    This is great stuff. I need a better system for working on this. IDK if you'll agree but another maybe less focused way to hone that perception is to listen to, record yourself, and play along to tracks with the drums of someone who has good subdivision time. that way when you flam on their hits you know you're off. you can also listen back and hear where it doesn't feel right.

    Nate what metronome are you using that allows you to have a clear downbeat then offbeats for the 16ths and 8ths? (As opposed to just shifting where you hear the downbeat with your mind if that makes sense) This is something I’ve been working on a few years now and it would be cool if there’s a metronome that allows even more complex variations of which offbeats are heard.
    By the way you’re killing it with the improvisation! Your longer phrasing and overall sound have skyrocketed in these years I’ve been enjoying your channel!

    • @8020drummer
      @8020drummer  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      very deep question. When I improvise I don't "think" at all. I just kind of "hear" phrases, in much the same way that when you speak you're not thinking "verb, preposition", you're just making thoughts. I've worked for decades to make the patterns and sticking ingrained so I don't have to think about them. What I often recommend to beginners is that they start improvising with *simple* ideas, while they're working on those stickings and combos. (There are also some ways to "half improvise" with stickings you're learning, like making combinations between two). Over the years, the stickings should start to come out subconsciously without you having to think about it.

    Thank you so much for posting this! I've heard about using the gap click before, but it was hard, and I never really got it or understood what it was doing for me. Been working on it the past few days with only offset 8ths, and something about it has cracked my brain wide open. It makes sense all of a sudden. There's so much space between the downbeats that it's easy to be sloppy without realizing it as long as you hit the downbeat. Having the landmarks halfway between the downbeats forces you to be more precise. The beauty in drumming is what happens in the space between the downbeats. I can't wait to get to 16ths and really lock in on the details. Thanks again!

    Absolutely, Nate. I believe proper spacing of subdivisions will improve one's ability to play and keep good tempo, and vice versa. Cutting one's teeth playing along with what most would consider simple songs, can go along way. Growing up an AC/DC fan, cut my teeth playing along with Phil Rudd. I knew it was *easy*, but keeping locked with him was tougher than it seemed, at first. Definitely paid off once I moved on to more technically challenging music.. 👍😗

    162 bpm 16th off? I’m still struggling with 110 🥺

    • @erikhenze2339
      @erikhenze2339 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’ve started noticing too that if I practice macro time at a given bpm first (say, 4th quarter only at 110bpm for 10min) that actually makes the 110 16th offs go a lot better because a lot of times I can hear the subdivisions fine but I’m speeding up or slowing down when things get complicated

    I'd like to see a video on more of a "Should I dance or not?" concept. More of a grey area, like is it interesting or boring.

    Nate, thanks for the study guide. I have one suggestion to make it even better. Include a transcript or a more specific example of what to practice. It's pretty much impossible to capture what Nate Smith, Ash Sloan or Dana Hawkins are playing. are playing. As it is, the study guide doesn't provide anymore information than your video does.

    One of the reasons i follow your channel is it has given me the tools to identify what it is that i don't like about my drumming and, more importantly, what i can try to do about it.
