      I think a lot of it is, attention spans, the time to edit, and do people really want to dig that deep. For me it’s yes, but it does require more work. My lessons on my website are like this. For TH-cam I don’t do too many break downs like this as it’s just very time consuming.

    I love these because each groove includes at least one hand/accent combo that I’ve never used. For example, ghost note on snare with kick. I automatically play accented right hand with kick. Snare buzz with regular right hand. I’ve never tried to buzz with any other drum being hit. These develop all the right stuff to get ready to play anything!

    First, let me say how great it is to have you back for some lessons and inspiration! Always something to look forward to during these times or any.
    Second, minor glitch in that you say the bass drum in the first example is on the "and" of beat two (8:08). But the notation (and your playing example) clearly shows the bass drum on the "uh" of beat two. And I feel awful for pointing that out!
    Third, Groove 4 almost sounds like a SOCA groove if you open the hi-hats on the upbeats!
    Thank you, brother. New room looks and sounds great, too. And please bust that new snare out for us in a future video. I can't tell what it is, but it looks like it has a RIMS mount on it. Sounds absolutely amazing tuned down for Grooves 2 and 5. Peace.

      @JuanCarlitoMendoza  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for tuning in! Thanks for the comment and correction (but I did put that correction in the pinned comments when I uploaded it.) second the grooves were ghost note grooves (now I could have put the styles for sure, but sometimes those labels get sketchy depending on the location you are in the world. Many grooves are the same but called different things (which is a beautiful thing about music, but don’t want to give misinformation). Finally yes will do a little review of the snare. It’s definitely a beast. Thanks again and take care.

  • @bhaveshsolanki6485
    @bhaveshsolanki6485 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    What I would have like to seen is slow, medium and fast version of the grooves! I say this because the relationship between the upstroke and downstroke changes at different tempos, at a slower tempo you have time to raise your hand higher on the upstroke but at faster tempos you don't have the time to raise your hand that far up as you do on the slower tempos! Its a much smaller motion
    Please don't think I am hating, as I think your a great player and this lesson is awesome!

    • @JuanCarlitoMendoza

      Totally get it but I go deep into that kind of stuff on my website materials. In addition, I don’t think people really understand the level and time it takes to edit these videos. I literally do this out of the goodness of my heart. TH-cam is more a scratch the surface kind of vibe and for me. Super in depth stuff should be things that people invest in. While I LOVE sharing, sharing doesn’t always equate to paying my bills. So if you really dig what I do, dig into my site and maybe invest a little into the craft as I feel it will benefit/help show some value into the art of education and learning. Be well and thanks for checking out the video.

    Excellent work as usual.
    Hey Carlito, is it me or you lost some serious weight ?
    Anyways, love the video effect on the prep stroke. My advice would be to expand on this because from my experience, hand technique is deeply rooted into those different strokes and one can easily plateau because of bad interpretation of strokes. With this kind of visual effect, there's no way you can get it wrong.
    Guess it's more work for you but a great addition as it is. Kudos to you.

    • @JuanCarlitoMendoza
      @JuanCarlitoMendoza  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Man! Yeah I’ve lost some serious weight. Once I get to my goal I’ll fill people in on how much that is. As far as the video effects, I just gave viewers a taste of what I offer on the website. Most lessons are like this and it takes a while to edit all these videos. So I offer things like this and even expand on them on my website because it takes time, energy, etc to make sure I do all this stuff correctly and hopefully be compensated to get better equipment, products, etc . Thanks for tuning in and for the support!
