"... playing ostenados on top of each other basically. Odd and even groupings with both hands and feet in mixed stickings at different note rates". Thanks for the practice tip Mr. Lang - that really doesn't sound too difficult at all! Seriously though, deep respect for all the hundreds and thousands of hours you must have put in to achieve the level you are at. Truly inspiring!
You have been providing exercises for years now, since i saw you live in Montluçon France; and i THANK YOU for that. A tremendous source of inspiration and solutions to my various problems coming out along those hours of practice. A huge MERCI! Oder danke wie sie wollen. Cheers from Switzerland 🇨🇭
Appelez la poliiiiiice!!! Juste: waooow. Bin j'en ai pour une paire de jours à bosser tout çà...! Super vidéo (comme d'hab') d'un des meilleurs batteurs de la planète!
Thomas always go wild on drums, with his technique full of groove and flavour! He is pretty much a rhythm machine, sharing the mastery as Mike Mangini! But Thomas manages to achieve a musicality that Mike isn't able, unfortunately, at least according to my hears.
Once again I just listed my drum set and cymbals on ebay. Time to quit. Not really. TL is amazing and as I have said before seems like such a great guy.
Came here to learn how to deal with my wife, ended up mind blown. Got me thinking, who would be the equivalent musicians of other instrumenst To TL? Paul Gilbert, Yngwie, for example? John entwistle? I'm not a drummer, but it seems form the comments from those who are that Thomas does things that no one else can do, or at least only a very small number of gifted individuals.
Virgil Donati is also way up here with his independence, as is Mike Mangini. But now that I've mentioned the latter's name, it will probably have awoken the hordes of people who, for some reason, loathe him - sorry about that if they do come.
Thomas somethin happens to my hands and feet, the better i get into my independence, the weird a feel. its like my brain has two right hands and feet, does it happens to you
I'm jealous. When I was a kid there wasn't You Tube with the best in the world giving free tips, there were assholes charging $10 a half hour to show NOTHING. "You want to learn Good Times Bad Times? You trying to be some kind of rock star?" My First and last "lesson"...
I have a Rock bottom basic question...pardon me if it is insanely stupid.. its about your posture and ur level with the level of ur drums.. how do u maintain it.. it looks super duper ergonomical.. I am trying it.. but it repeatedly fails.. do u work out to strengthen ur back n posture.. do u custom ur throne / rack / toms...please please Prof .. please .. tell us
so.....all I need now are four more brains, 2 more arms, 6 feet and a life expectency of 400 and I will be able to drum just like Thomas.....no problem.
So you basically practice things you already master? The main issue with independence is that people struggle to achieve certain things on the drums, at least this is my understanding of the topic. So my question is: What can I practice to overcome blockades that hindering me from playing certain patterns independently?
Unless you have people playing with you, time signatures don’t really matter all that much with drums. Especially if your bottom number is divisible by four.

It’s a 10 years exercises plan, but it’s still a practice plan 🤣 not overwhelming at all though!
@@lajeanette33 Well I'm 68 years old, so I better get started!
@@SpiritualAlien 😅 i see what you mean. Never too late! I hope you enjoy the process.

Awesome drummer!
Not to mention, picking up the kids at school independently of quintuplets over a 5/32 ostinato....with your right foot.
Thomas always go wild on drums, with his technique full of groove and flavour! He is pretty much a rhythm machine, sharing the mastery as Mike Mangini! But Thomas manages to achieve a musicality that Mike isn't able, unfortunately, at least according to my hears.
THOMAS YOU'RE AMAZING!
thank you for the lesson, Thomas!
madre mía, la destrucción de cualquier batería.... este hombre es impresionante!
3:18 that is some hard stuff to play!!!!! practice practice and more practice
Man that snare sounds so good
These independence exercises are so simple for Thomas Lang that it's insane.
2:30 just hits 😍
Love it when super heroes try to put you on their level!!! Just smile and nod try not to quite playing lmfao!!!!

none..yngwie is the king but TL is a machine
as a drummer for a long time watching a lot of drummers i think thomas lang might be the most skilled out of anyone.
he is pretty much inhuman

@@oogalieboogalieboo for replacing portnoy or something else ? faith in druminity is at stake
@@oogalieboogalieboo na mangini is also a wizard on the drums.
and yeah virgil donati is also absolutely ridiculous on the drums
The trick is to practice this at 65bpm
50 haha
Not even a joke. You are correct…
Much respect to experienced drummers. This is not easy to do!
Beast!
🔥🔥🔥
😆😆😆🔥🔥🔥
Awesome lesson! Gotta practice independance way more
And thats it. Easy Peasy. :0
This dude is super human
It's just that easy 🥁🥁😁
this dude is alien
Thomas somethin happens to my hands and feet, the better i get into my independence, the weird a feel. its like my brain has two right hands and feet, does it happens to you
MR: Thomas Lang 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
HOW is he getting those high hats to bounce when both his feet are working base drums??????
The pedal for the right high hat is right next to the right bass drum pedal, so he presses down the two pedals with one foot
@@superdrummer3578 OOOHHHH ok, sweet. Thanks.

Sit at the correct height and that problem is fixed.
❤❤❤🎉
Niesamowite!!
His independence skills are pretty good.
super, Thaanks
Not even 5 min of drumvideo and.......... There you go! You've got yourself at least 10 years of practice-material! That's a bargain
He's just in his normal mode...
THOMAS IS THE BEST DRUMMER IN THE WORLD
Thanks dude
Anyone else think he’s just not human? Or even if this world?🤯🤯🤯
Yes....him, and Simon Phillips both make me wanna give up and take up mechanics, or accounting...lol.
He's The Druminator. Definitely not human... :)
Mr Thomas have a innacessible technic!!
I love you sir
beast.the.end.
💪💪👍🙏
I.. Do play drums.... But.... This hurts my brain! 😩😂👌
🐐
🇧🇷
Bom demais
from 1 to 10billion in matter of seconds
This got me real good
just insane.....
see... Just like that...LOL...I think I'm to old to learn this stuff, but sounds awesome
Give me an extra brain and this stuff is no problem . . . at . . . all!
one for each limb....
@@SAHBfan LOL - Seriously!! Man, I love T Lang.
so.....all I need now are four more brains, 2 more arms, 6 feet and a life expectency of 400 and I will be able to drum just like Thomas.....no problem.
Don't have unrealistic expectations. Never gonna achieve that with only 2 more arms. 6, to match the feet, maybe.
No, you only need a successful band, in 95% of all popular music nobody cares about this hyper-advanced drum technics :-)
Wow
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺

drummer toto wolff
So you basically practice things you already master? The main issue with independence is that people struggle to achieve certain things on the drums, at least this is my understanding of the topic. So my question is: What can I practice to overcome blockades that hindering me from playing certain patterns independently?
I would take an exercise, practice it slowly at first and build your way up.
Start with the Metronome veeeeery slow.
Ok
😱😨😱😨😱
bro what
Machine
Unless you have people playing with you, time signatures don’t really matter all that much with drums. Especially if your bottom number is divisible by four.
Hahahaha
I think it matters, because the dynamic feels of diffenrent kinds in odd-meters are important to practice as well.
OCTOPUSS
L'unica cosa che riesco a fare come lui è stare seduto....
