Damn who knew a groove with just singles on the snare, a little kick and left foot hi hat could be so tasty? Now I'm gonna have to learn traditional grip...
I had drum lessons when I was a little kid and my teacher wanted me to play matched grip as the new thing (yeah Im old). But i kept switching back to traditional. At one point he told me if I don't stop switching back he's just gonna have me play traditional and i never looked back. I struggle to play match grip but I still want to have that too and keep working on it. Both is best. Thank you, another great lesson.
Thanks Rob. I liked the groove you were playing in the beginning and
thought I would try it. Seemed easy. This was like learning syncopation
for the feet. I failed pretty miserably with the kick drum for about 1/2 hour until I was
able to count it out. I am 59 and just getting back into drumming. This
will be the basis of many exercises for me. Thanks for doing what you
are doing. I dig your style and your gear too!
Right there with you...lol
I learned traditional 55 years ago. There is so much you can do with it. Great lesson.
Been working on traditional grip for about 3 or 4 years now. This is hands down the best explanation and lesson I've seen. Huge thanks for all you do. You're a gifted teacher!
Very insightful. I cannot stress enough to listen to Rob explain the fulcrum & cradle excercises before you apply the fingers. Well done mechanics explanation.
Finally, the long awaited video came! And it did not disappoint! 👍
A fine rerun of my first formal drumming lesson in 1963...thanks Rob.
Wow! I just bought a kit this week and have never played before. So far I've seen how to tune a snare, set up my hi hats, and learned about the cradle! Thank you! Awesome videos and tutorials!
20 years of searching and I’ve found my drum guru.
...really great control for speed at the Low Level... Just watching you over and over is a lesson in itself. Great job.
this is incredible, i have been playing matched for the past 5 years and still don't have incredible speed or accuracy. getting back to basics with things like this really helps with my internal metronome and accuracy. i dont really have a strong opinion of whether match or trad is better, but i will say that trad definitely does look cooler ;)
Very important lesson
This is helping me out so much, man. Thank you!!
Thanks Sir for the great lessons, and sharing your talents 🎼🎵🥁
Very well done video, taught in a way that really helped me to understand
Thanks Rob! I'm 60 years old and I finally figured out how much technique I need to play what I hear. I have decided to start digging in. This lesson helps a bunch. Although traditional left is more limited, the sound from that grip is a deep part of the catalog of traditional drumming. With this grip it's hard to get the same velocity and it always seems to sound a bit softer, but there's a very special sound that you can't get from match grip. I'm going to take my fingers off the stick for a while and just work on the cradle. Seems simple enough.
This video really improved my drumming. You truly never miss Rob!
Excellent instructions
Great explanation, great advice.
Brother, your timing is impeccable, on the kit and especially with my immediate need for this! Thank you and Merry CHRISTmas! I'll be sporting some new T's too! Blessings!!!
Very helpful. Thank you!
Fantastic!
Thanks!
Brilliant tutor, thanks Rob. Craig from Scotland
This is an excellent tutorial. SMOOFAH!
Love from Korea! Thank you bro!
Wuddup Korea 🙂👊🏽 Shout out from Canada 🇨🇦
“...but when it’s time to start laying’ bricks-you’re gonna catch me right back here!” Oh yeah!
This is extremely informative, you’ve definitely earned a sub
Sick video bro
Very good video. Another way to practice single stroke is playing Bolero de Ravel along any video with dynamics, from ppp to ff, playing the rythm of the snare with both hands simultaneously or alternating them. Is a very good exercise to improve your technique. After finishing, you wll realize to have better precision and control of the sticks.
Dustin said it best who knew let's get to work yes baby 24/7🥁
Thank you.✌
love it
Great video! I started practicing these tips just a couple weeks ago and am seeing amazing results!
Been playing 20 years w/ matched grip and wanted to learn traditional while stuck at home. As I'm sure everyone feels when learning traditional, it's felt REALLY daunting considering my current skill level with matched. Really thankful content like yours is accessible - least I can do is buy a t-shirt to say thanks!
Annnnnnd ordered. Thanks again!
So back to basics hu; Always man, always. A musician always go's back to basics.
Great video. Just Playing is still the best way to show things. Let the music do the talking and explaining by itself.....You ar a ba ass modest master in your own way , becaus you always keep doing it man.
So true. Been playing Keyboards for over 30 years, but just got into drums a couple years back. Always warm up on the keyboard with scales at slow tempos to a click. Gradually build up the speed to comfort, then before a gig, push up the tempo a little bit over comfort to loosen up the joints. Basic beginner technique will always treat you right and NEVER steer you wrong no matter the instrument. Learning traditional grip from Rob's videos really helps a lot. Always look forward to a lesson when his alerts pop up on my computer :-).
You're the best 😀 Love the vids ... I wanna learn this now, cuz why not!?
Why not, indeed! I mean you're holding sticks anyways, right? 🙂
@@RobBeatdownBrown yeahhh!
Well, you solved my thumb pain !!!!! THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
👌🏽✅
I always seem to feel less in control when I try to incorporate the fingers. Now I realize that it might be because I'm relying too much on thumb action. Gonna work on this method now and try to fix things. Thanks!!!
Timely! ;-)
thank you Master Po....yours truly, Grasshopper
Great video Rob - as always ! I do your classes every day as a traditional grip player myself ! Just wondering if you have any tips on improving paradiddle speed ? I am fine up to 140 bpm then I start to lose it ! Absolute pleasure to work with you !
Hey Rob I love you videos... Have you done any videos on Cross sticking... And if you could incorporate some reggae it would be awesome
Mike Clark dug this vid. How cool is that?!
Oh shirt came love it ordered a bright orange one love it
Awesome. Thanks! 👊🏽
Everyone who has a smart phone has a metronome. For those who think they don't. Not that i used mine it was the first thing i sold due to it being replaced
Help....is the right hand the French position?
Nice shirts
What pad is this? Great lesson!!
Video starts at 3:35
Perfect lesson
. BUT !
A zoom.on.the fingers etc would habe been.really better
Great video! I still want to see a video on right hand technique though.
Hey Rob! Thanks for the video. I am reading Anatomy of Drumming book (highly recommend to read this book to any drummer) by John Lamb and he said that playing traditional grip is designed to play a slanted drum. Well I like to play traditional grip with snare drum set not in angle, but what John write in the book (it is so true and I can see also in your and my posture) is that if your snare is not in the angle we use to slouch and drop our left shoulder so we can play the drum at the appropriate angle, and it can create problem such as Thoraric outlet syndrome. Well I tried to set my snare little bit in an angle and it change a lot for me in. I am feeling much more comfortable and it is also more comfortable to hit a rim shot with more power.
What is your opinion about having snare drum set up in angle? Did you ever tried to play snare drum with traditional grip in angle?
Thanks
Love your merchandise

Having trouble with stick sliding off w/o thumb to hold it. Could you show the open movement while looking into your palm. I learned a lot from watching your hands over the years. Right hand has become loose and accurate. Looking to loosen traditional left hand.
damn this is difficult hahaha, having trouble remembering to rotate my wrist (match grip player here lol)
the problem of trad grip is when you make tom fills/rolls. the tendancy to hit heads at a bad angle. which breaks them quickly. Virgil Donaty is the perfect example. i remember Tomas Lang was amazed at how fast Virgil was killing his drum heads. especially on floor toms. Virgil is a floor tom stabber haha! the rack toms were okayish. only 2 hours of bootcamp. crazy.
I no longer have problems with toms since I lay them a bit flat and hanging low!
it really depends on the position of the toms.. the trad grip is better on the snare angled down for example..
So are you taking it back what you were saying in the video " How to develop a killer traditional grip", where you emphasize that the fulcrum should be under the last joint of the thumb? The concept here seems a little different. Thanks!
Great vid Rob. That groove at the beginning what counts are the kick playing? Thx!
Is it 3, 4 and 1? Then u start putting one on the ah of 3 too
Put them where you want to. I am struggling with this for some reason. Doesn't seem natural to me. But it is 3 beats in a row. 1,2,3. 2,3,4. 3,4,1. @@stevenbroughton9264
It looks like the motion i'm doing is correct but i just can't manage to move my wrist as fast as you. Am i doing something wrong or do i just need to work out more?
You didn’t mention how to hold the right hand position? Thanks Howie...
Ahaha this video is sponsored by me :-)
worldwide shipping of merch?
Yup. Out of US and EU 🌎
Just tried out the traditional grip for the first time. Is it weird that my hand (the bone of my index finger) hurts near the cradle?
Nah. You’ll probably experience a few growing pains during the learning process. They’ll all correct themselves eventually
Thanks!
