@@ArtOfDrummingHQhe’s not just being kind, he’s saying tru words
for all beginners please note that his ring and pinky fingers stay in controll of the stick. controlling each bounce. rebound can be your best friend or your worst enemy.
Good information Dooper 👍
Thank you. I was wondering how this could be a beginner lesson, with no lesson. I’m a true beginner and I would love to know how this works. You helped thank you
I like it! Also suggest unison doubles to make sure they sound identical
To the moon 🚀🌕!
This is exactly how I learned to get my double strokes even in dynamics and speed
Lovely Matt, you clearly got skills and passion to have done that. Cheers!
Excellent beginner material for people like me. Thanks!
My pleasure, thanks for showing your appreciation!
I remember doing this same exercise in my freshman year of highschool during my percussion class. At the time it was extremely boring and I hated doing it, but here I am 6 years later doing it subconsciously on my thighs when I get anxious 😂 funny how muscle memory works
Yess hahaha well you're here watching this video so means you've still got the drumming passion ain't it :)
This helped me figure out that the problem with my 16ths notes is my left hand is slow, so thank you!
Cool :) glad to be of help
I'm a clarinet player, but I've always been a fan of drum line cause I'm in marching band. Sometimes the percussionists let us use their practice pads, so I want to learn this and show them 😁
Oooh nice. I was in marching band too and played the trombone, secretly practicing drums. Go surprise them!
Thank you very much for this video I play many times during my days to practice at the same time !
You're most welcome :) thanks for the wonderful comment!
Great video! All play no yap, what a concept!
😂 Glad you enjoy it!
bro a year later and this still helped me so much with my double stroke roll when i do it along with you. thank you 🙏
Wow great to hear that! I've got a nice hand workout routine video coming this week to practice singles, doubles and paradiddles. Hope that helps you too!
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ i appreciate it I'll definitely check them out :)
Yoh I actually learned this stroke just now watching u😮 amazing content
Glad it helped :) thanks for watching and commenting!
Just started and this will probably help alot. Thanks!
Thank you for uploading this! I found your channel a couple months ago. I usually spend about an hour a day rewatching this video, doing my best to replicate your movements. I think I pretty much got the hang of it now, I wanted to thank you!
Your efforts have paid off Kevin, glad I could help :)
i’ve been trying to nail these for a while to strengthen my left hand, and this video helped so much!! thank you!!
I'm glad these help. If you need more quick tips on strengthening hands check out my 2 other shorts on double technique 1. th-cam.com/users/shortspzgxID1tjSY 2. th-cam.com/users/shortsw-5zN729JIM Cheers!
Commenting so when people like it Ill be reminded to do this
Great video! To viewers: keep in mind that this is French grip. Most DCI’s use traditional grip, and high schools/middle schools use match grip.
French grip = matched grip if i am not mistaken
I'm almost 50 and where my son, he the musician, not me, but he couldn't take his drum set and I've wanted to learn, so this stuff is so great. I'm left handed, but use both hands for everything, so he showed me some ways to play a bit differently. Trying to figure out where I'm comfortable. Since I use both, I have this trouble with everything I do if I have to pick a dominant one. But I'm excited to try these and surprise him with a video at some point :) thanks so much!!!
It's great to hear that you and your son has the same interest! I'm left handed too, but it doesn't matter. I learnt with the right handed set up regardless, and you have advantages because your snare hand, when playing grooves will be strong 😁 all the best to your drumming journey and your son's too Jade!
Thank you for this!! Makes me excited to practice later 😄
Have fun!
Appreciate what you’re doing. I’d recommend closing the gap between your thumb and pointer finger. Helps with control later on with more complicated and faster rudiments. Keep up the great work!
Appreciate what you're doing too. Cheers
This is a really good exercise.I'm almost sweating.
Thanks you 🙏
Damn that’s actually a really good exercise. I’m glad you taught that so well. Can’t wait to try that one.
I still love watching my sticks bounce to this day love the video man I’ve been brushing up on my rudiments an starting to work on learning all the National & international rudiments
I can tell you are passionate about your drumming journey like me, so all the best to it!
Thank You so much for taking the time to respond to my comment!!! yes I do love drums an Music.btw saw your $60 sonar pedal video response to (that ding a ling saying it all equipment wow that’s a mind blowingIly dumb comment to make, a good drummer can make a can of Pringles sound awesome an your Footwork is awesome the way you trip the pedal is sick my friend u can prob give some guys with double bass pedals a run for their money SORRY4LONG RESPONSE DUDE
i like to try turning my hands down a little bit, where my thumbs are facing sideways instead of towards the ceiling. i find it works better for stick physics lol but whatever’s more comfortable for you ofc
I would also recommend accenting the second note in the diddles to prevent bouncing and promote a stronger, cleaner roll.
Totally legit way to play! Especially if there's little to no rebound available. But for beginners and hobbyist, they should concentrate on learning to leverage as much rebound as possible. The style, drum surface, skill level, personal goals are very important in the context of developing the best technique.
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ Think they were talking about you buddy…your second note is consistently weaker than your first.
I was going to say the same thing, the second note should be accented to ensure consistency at speed. Look at Thomas Lang’s doubles lesson!
Great advice for a begging drummer! But something you may want to focus on is making sure that when you play, the sticks that are not playing should stay at set.(hovering just a little bit over the drum)
And also make sure that when you play a downstroke, the stick moves into set instead of bouncing upwards then down a little bit. But other than that, the sound spacing was incredible and your technique was pretty good as well, keep it up man!
great exercise
Thank you!
Great Technique
You're awesome 👍
Something that helped me a lot was finally realizing there is a difference between a double and two singles. They aren't the same thing, it sounds obvious but to a beginner its not. And more specifically i mean, if you are playing two quickly grouped singles its really not a double stroke. To be a double you need to be getting two even or inverted strokes out of a single movement cycle. So you can either use push/pull for faster doubles or a Moeller stroke double for more power. But if you are just cramming two singles together they are still technically singles. To get a really good double stroke roll and to be able to really implement doubles well you need to be playing actual doubles with as much fluidity as your singles. Its just like with your feet, you can either use slide or heel toe (or ideally i always say its best to use both) but if you are just powering out two singles they are still singles and very inefficient compared to using a proper double technique like heel toe or slide. Anyways like I said it seems obvious but even once i was able to play push pull and Moeller fairly well I still hadnt realized that they arent doubles unless your using a double stroke technique to get to strokes out of one movement. I was still practicing my doubles with the occasional single stroke "fake" double lol. But to be clear there isnt anything wrong with playing two singles but if you want a really good double you have to practice actual doubles.
Why is this so satisfying 😜
Nice brother 🎉
After seeing this video I think I got the perfect exercises for my left hat because my left hand is so week and when it comes to play 32 note double it totally messed up.
Again thank you for providing great content
My pleasure, try this for 10 sessions and see if your left improves! Thank you again for writing such a nice comment 😁
no yappin just tappin..what's not to love? nice job
Thanky you for this lesson session!
My pleasure!
Super......Super............
Thank you
I like that. Thanks
You're welcome, glad you like it
The Traditional Grip!!!
In the second part of this exercise you're basically playing a Ruff b'cuz
you're accenting on the left hand &
then switch accenting with the right
& they both should sound the same when alternating hand 2 hand.
Oh my God! I can't thank you enough for this effective exercise!
Thank you so muchh
You're so welcome!

@@ArtOfDrummingHQ ahh thanks a lot! So useful
Very cool. Id get the left foot or both feet going anytime you do hand technique as well
I love to play paradiddles 👍
Good to know :)
During the pandemic, I got an electric drum set to be another hobby. I had first started with piano and played drums on the side. Because of the piano I was able to count timings but when it came to songs that used one hand twice like this, I struggled. Thanks for the video! I’m sure it will help, not only me, but everyone as well! Be safe my friend! P.S. Thanks again for the AOT songs, love to play it!
Hey it's my pleasure. Glad you find my videos helpful. And I'm glad you're having fun with the AOT songs! Hope all is well for you, really appreciate your thoughtfulness and kindness. Cheers!!
Schöne Übungen für Anfänger 😀👍👍👍🥁
Finally i found the right video thanks 🙏
Nice welcome Aimz!
It's good that you stayed in temple I wish I could do that again my arthritis like I said I can't hold a pair of sticks anymore let alone do a paradiddle.
Sorry to hear that Jim. Thanks for being open about what you're going through. My best wishes to you.
U make it look easy
It's really not that easy, depending on the speed. But this is more of a manageable tempo for beginners to aim towards. But heck, as long as you have your fun, I can't care less how anyone does it :)
Thx man
you're welcome!
Thanks for this. This is my 3rd day of owning an edrum kit. And I am focusing on techniques for now rather than playing music.
Rock on man. Welcome to the wonderful world of drumming!
Great way to start drumming! Focus on the technique and rudiments. You didn’t ask for them, but if you want some great recommendations for literature let me know.
@@kahok5ownage yes please! I am now a little bit comfortable with the instrument. it's been less than a week, but somehow I can keep up with some random music playing on the radio. Any literature will absolutely help me.
Hi, sorry for this late comment' and maybe someone in this section have ever proposed it.
It's very very resumed but you could add one thing.
For right handed try same exercise begining by left hand. For left handed who work the double stroke begining by L, reverse it too, begining by R hand.
And if you're a bit more hungry and if you're okay with it, try to do this same exercise but, when you arrive on the 2nd part, don't do the "LL" alone on beat time but on the "and" time. And of course reverse the exercise same as before ^^
It's a better routine to reverse all these usual kind of exercises.
(excuse my bad English, no translator in this text ^^)
See ya around
The elusive paradiddle
Bonus tip: practice on a pillow to gain more control over the bounce (+strength & dexterity w good technique) when you move over to a drum/pad
Finally found this video
Great exercise!
Thank you!
❤❤❤
Excellent video!!!🥁
Much appreciated Stw😁👍
I see that Uniqlo JJK shirt my brother 🔥
Anime for life 🙌
I can do it now thank bro.
Wonderful!
What pad is that? Thanks for the great content as always.
Oh I actually don't know, haha that ain't my usual pad, just wanted to try a colleague's pad. Cheers Joaquin!
Ya what kind of pad is that
Всё ещё не просто попадать в метроном) Впереди ещё много работы.
What are 3 recomended Bpms to improve speed and control as you progress, example ( 80, 100 and 120)
I usually get my students starting at 80bpm, the first target to hit is 100bpm. Next target is 120bpm. Next is 140bpm. Aim for weekly progress of 1-5bpm. Everyone is different and some get the technique faster than others.
Thank you!!!
YOu're most welcome!
Put your palms down and you’ll be good to go 😎 looks good!
Oh hey it's not wrong to not have the palms point to the floor. It's 2 ways/techniques. Both are equally legit and have their advantages/disadvantages. Thanks!
th-cam.com/video/6-9jtP0DSoY/w-d-xo.html watch this guy and tell me his technique is wrong.
Great Exercise for beginner, Keep up the good work mate ❤️
Thank you, appreciate it!
As a guitarist I hear literally
Raining Blood -> (SIC) -> Domination -> anything fast
😂👍
How do you notice left and right
Bro is bouncing his doubles
A Lotta people don't teach that anymore, mad props
Just the way I do it on a surface that has rebound. But I honestly don't care how anyone does it if they can pull it off and have fun playing :)
Yeah I don't do a correct double
I do individual strokes but yeah I noticed you were bouncing, one way to get the bounce is tighten the top head
A correct double is in the middle of the two. Yes you want to use rebound to allow the stick to return to the top. But then you want to actually play the second note of the double with a stroke of the wrist and not just let it limply come out with a single wrist stroke. If you listen carefully in the video, you can notice that the second note of each double is a bit softer than the first. But it takes significant building of chops to be able to do this at speed. However, it is the way any professional rudimental drummer will play.
Damn those calves have hit a lot of boot 😮😮😮
😂 cheers!
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ 😂😂❤️❤️ cheers thanks for the content
"My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard"
😂 I had to google this
It really does. I’ve been in the yard several times this month😂
Great!
Hope it helps!
Thank you sm I never knew what’s single stroke rolll was 😂
haha cheers!
Sorry if someone else already commented this, but you should focus on making your Right hand Left hand sound exactly the same too. you should be able to close your eyes and not tell if it's Right or Left hand. sometimes sticks wear out at different rates especially if you're doing lots of Right hand rim shots. Make sure you're hitting the drum with the same intensity in both hands.
Can never hear enough of this for sure, or advice of any sorts. Appreciate the effort to comment, cheers! Have the best christmas!
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ Happy Holidays to you too!!! Unfortunately I'm not a professional just experienced. in college drumline we would start 8's and exercises off the left hand. try to see if you can invert sticking on some passages, but that's just as much a brain exercise as a technique one. lastly like I said, check your sticks because sometimes you either get an off pair or you've cracked one. But just because a stick is cracked doesn't necessarily mean you have to toss it out right away too, but it will effect your playing so just be aware
@@fo-ef8qo You don't have to be a professional or experienced to offer advice. Freedom of speech yo. And I believe even being a professional, the best is to still listen to what everyone has to say. I've been playing drums professionally for more than 10 years now. And I still love listening to everybody's opinions. Cheers man. Drumline is not easy. I'm happy you're on that journey and are definitely sounding passionate.
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ I was on that journey. it was a lot of fun. that was 10 years ago though but an absolute blast. I know there's DCA and independent groups but I have a bad back haha. still love to jam though. cheers man!
This is french grip. I wish back when I was learning how to play drums I learned this technique for doubles. I wish I learned doubles the correct way early on. I know how to play doubles but they are only the way that each bounce is forced and not rebounded.

cool

😂 Appreciate the sharing Nahshon!
😂😂😂😂😂
Were you rushing or were you dragging...
underrated movie
Oh I loved it very much 💯
I’m looking for two practice surfaces, one quiet and one normal. Would you recommend a pad or two?
Are you using your fingers, wrist or just pure bounce for the double stroke?
My full technique is I use a combination of all 3 (I'm working on developing a longer technique video to explain this). But for beginners, it's more helpful to learn to leverage as much of the available rebound as possible, and let the fingers and wrists work to help achieve that. Then when you've learnt to naturally use rebound well. You can incorporate a finger snap or more wrist/forearm action to increase the power and to help with surfaces that have less rebound or no rebound.
Waoo super aprendo asi
que bom que esse vídeo te ajuda!
Técnica boa 👏🏾🥁
Thank you!
So the second stroke should be happening due to rebound, and shouldn’t be happening due to my wrist or fingers, right?
Yes I made 3 short videos explaining my technique, you can look at them for a detailed explanation 1. th-cam.com/users/shortsU3ZfPCEMHVs?feature=share

Send this to Lars ulrich
Aw man, lots of people diss on Lars but come on, Metallica won't be Metallica without Lars even if people hate on his drumming.
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ yeah i know i know, i am joking
Appreciate the attempt at humour, cheers man 👌
I don't no how to play the Gremms be cuz my Dems wuz how to play. Dreams
beginners, LEARN THE PROPER TECHNIQUE, no matter what your band teacher tells you, pressing the stick down and hoping for 2 bounces is not the right way, the motion should be controlled and even. (i made this mistake for years lol)
Pinzette?
Sir, how many days should you exercise?
2-3 times a week for hobbyists, 5 times a week for semi-pro to pro. Also you want to choose a few areas to focus. Getting too spread out doesn't help progress. For example 1. double strokes. 2. Triplet-sextuplet subdivisions. 3. Single stroke could be a good set for the hands to focus for 3 months
Genial
Are those the buddy rich drumsticks
Oh no they're not, I forgot what sticks I'm using in this video haha
In order to execute a DS roll correctly the accent (>) notes must fall on the second stroke for each hand (1 AND 2 AND 3 AND. . . not ONE and TWO and THREE and. . .)
It is essential to practice at low speeds this way to prevent improper execution at full speed. The rolls sound completely different depending on where the accent is placed.
There are tons of different approaches to doing doubles. I believe the approach you are referring to is the Moeller method. Most of the time if you're able to do them as fast as this most ppl don't really care unless they are a drummer or an aficionado.
There once was a ship that put to see, the name of the ship was Billy-o-teaaa
What bpm are you on so I could practice along?
100bpm. I do recommend going down to 80bpm for first timers too
I can do it with my right hand, struggle with my left. Need to figure it out.
Here are some short videos explaining common mistakes and how to play the technique well th-cam.com/users/shortsU3ZfPCEMHVs?feature=share. th-cam.com/users/shortsw-5zN729JIM?feature=share
So gallop basically?
you can call it that certainly
I dunno if this was already asked and answered but what kind of practice pad is that. Been trying to find one that I've seen around just cannot find. Trying to find a queut one. Kinda like a head for a electric drum set ya no the soft yet bouncy also basically silent kind. Feels like I'm going crazy cus I know there out there just can't find one. Well still have yet try to go inside a drum store, just figured I could find one online. If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it from one fellow amateur drum enthusiasts to another, have a good one and keep rocking
This is a a keo practice pad but I actually don't use this anymore, it's a bit overpriced even though it's more quiet. You can try the drumeo quiet pad. It's cheaper and the quality is quite good with double sided surface for you to play quiet or louder.
