These are very good tips! Some of them I've found out the hard way. Dynamics, for example. Had been in loud punk and rock bands my whole life when I was asked to join a softer indie band. First rehearsal came with a big surprise, they didn't turn their amps to eleven and they asked me to play more quiet. Not a fun time to find out you totally suck at a dynamic level you're not used to practicing. I also struggled with my timing, since many of their songs were a lot slower than I was used to. Did I get the gig? Nope. Did I learn my lesson? Yes. Too late, though.
underrated: GL Stone Stick Control, open rolls, sight reading, dynamic practice, practicing latin music, listening to lots of music across genres, practicing odd time sigs, experience recording. overrated: rudiments, worrying about "gear", worrying about "dilla beats" as a beginner, "gospel chops" (no dynamics!), worrying about speed
These are literally, to a one, all the most overrated things in drums. (Not that I’m saying they’re wrong.) practicing stick control is the Most Common advice Ever Given to drummers 🤣🤣
I've done sound engineering for a while and recently started playing drums and it enlightened me as to a few problems that a lot of drummers have that I could never put my finger on without having experience. 1, Mic your kick drum: This one is especially for the younger guys out there who are playing more technical metal stuff, you have no idea what your bass drum sounds like and if you are on time unless you mic it. I dont care if you have a beta 91a in there or a SM58, find some way of micing your bass drum and feed it directly to your ears, it will clean up your playing immensely. 2, Step into the uncomfortable: If you wanna improve you have to step out of your comfort zone to where you arent fast enough or coordinated enough and try as hard as you can to become just that. 3, Practice at faster speed: If you practice at the speed you will record the song at then it will always be just within your ability, if you practice the song at 10 or even 20bpm higher during practice then it will sit comfortably within your ability.
Every drummer first learning should get Stick Control book, you can skip all the rudiments as well in focus on developing better control with your weak hand. Also useful for your feet just because it’s stick control doesn’t mean you can’t develop control with your feet, double bass, hi hat etc. development of your weak side early on helps.
Also- play #2 over a 16th note click. Important: mix so you can clearly hear the synchronization of you and the click. Match the transients. (attack) if your feeling brave, record it and listen back.
@@8020drummer oh yeah man, I be tapped in.. I was hoping I ran into you at NAMM last year.. I appreciate the s/o big time. We’ll engage more bruh.. for sure
Very useful content. These are the things that really improve everything about your playing but they take a lot of time, effort and patience. That's not what most people want to hear when they want to improve their playing. I would like to add that playing the really slow stuff with a metronome makes it even more challenging, but the results will baffle you. Play it really slow 'till it sounds good, only then speed up the tempo.
Lol about urban Nasty !!! Too true !! , Great points around levels and sub-division consistency !! It's a constant work in progress !! As always great vid Nate !
#1 - I think this develops naturally over time if you practice qtr, 8th & 16th notes w. consistent stick heights. Freddy Gruber's distance = time stick height method helped me. I wish my drumming was at the point, where I could think about these things while playing or work on them, but usually I'm just trying to hang on and get through a song with out making a major mistake.
Dynamics: Not just playing soft, but sound GOOD playing soft. Besides people performing really crappy beat placement, their sound is terrible when they play soft.
Yeah because playing soft is hard, along with the fact rarely do people practice playing soft. It took my playing to the next level not playing with hearing protection and deliberately playing quietly. It requires a ton of control.
Super instructive and useful as always. I personally approached some of these notions playing with a keyboard player. That guy tought me more than any other.
One element about dynamics I would teach my basic students (mostly rock players) was this, take the fast song that your normally pounding on and try playing it at the same tempo as lightly as possible. It is literally one of the quickest ways to teach dynamics. Also improves stroke consistency cause now people focus of stick height and how hard each limb is hitting .
Can you do a video on what a friend of mine called "drunk drumming"? For example, the transition from chorus to verse 2 in Return To Me by Reign Of Kindo. Thanks!
@@8020drummer Yeah, Mike does a lot of funny "mouth drumming" sounds, like "boom gigga blata doon bat blat da blat a ping". I'd have to go digging to find a specific example, but he does it frequently in his videos and your mouth drumming reminded me of that. lol😂
I think ( again personal opinion ) that practicing listening to music is just as important as playing it. For a variety of reasons. My more recent years ( apartment living ) forced me into another way of learning, as I couldn't sit behind a kit.
I think it's worth stating that volume consistency isn't always what you should aim for. Organic (unintentional) as well as deliberate dynamic variation is equally important (different concept than that in your 5th point). Not playing loud or soft, but playing different hits in the same pattern at different volumes. This is fundamentally important in jazz especially. Hits are constantly different volumes.
I'm not sure about #3 "Intention"... I only say this because I've found a TON OF GREAT STUFF ON ACCIDENT! Then you just reverse engineer and voila, kick ass new stuff!
Re: essential 1 - Michael Bland. Dude is an INSANELY consistent hitter. I’ve been lucky to do a couple sessions with him and he’s far and away the easiest drummer I’ve ever recorded.
Unusual question if anyone wants to give it a shot, how can I work on looking comfortable on the drums? Everyone knows there are some musicians (aynsley dunbar, Jimmi hendrix etc) that look like their instrument is just a part of them, and I dont know why but I always look awkward behind the kit, even though I feel comfortable playing, so its not a matter of experience. This will greatly help my stage presence when gigs come back
One thing I saw about intentionality, I think it was in a Benny Greb's video, is trying to repeat exactly the same "improvised" fill twice, that is hard because at first your intentional fills sound like a newbie or they are short as hell because u cant remember what you did... BTW now that you mentioned the new breed book, I started it this week with a different approach and that is no metronome, slow as fuck and counting every subdivision and man...that's a whole other study hahaha. I need some minutes to get each bar cleanly at that tempo
I’ve always been so confused about people hitting rimshots on the snare instead of just the head, I’ve been playing for 5 years or so and I’ve never been taught that
Jake de Jongh ...and funk and pop and ... The foundation of James Brown and Tower to Madonna to most pop except for maybe indie and jazz is rim shot back beats with nearly imperceptible ghost notes.
Here's my skill no one is talking about: Dynamic range independence. I've never heard of Colin Hinton, but I'll say that in the clip you provided he looks like he's concentrating pretty hard, but there's also no dynamics. What he's playing, as an ambidextrous individual, doesn't look hard to me. On the other hand, if you were to arbitrarily make some of those notes pianissimo and some fortissimo, the level of difficulty would rise exponentially. Dynamic range independence is so important because it's not just a binary thing like non-dynamic independence where you can either do it or you can't. The larger the dynamic range, the more difficult the task. And maximizing dynamic range independence lets you be so much more expressive.
@@8020drummer Not really about consistency re. point 1, but more about.... you know, when you can play a pattern unaccented just fine, but then you add an accent and some other limb also wants to play at the same time? That kind of thing.
Hi Jay Gee, thanks for chiming in. It wasn’t a dynamic exercise at that point. I’ve practiced tons of dynamic exercises that I’d be happy to share with you. I got all of them from my teachers over the last twenty years - including Ed Soph, Tyshawn Sorey, Dan Weiss, and Ralph Peterson. I’m also a professional working drummer in New York. Feel free to search TH-cam for videos of me working with Tony Malaby, Eivind Opsvik, Todd Neufeld, Ingrid Laubrock, Jacob Sacks, etc. You can also google me or buy my albums on bandcamp. I’m also ambidextrous - so you’re right, it wasn’t a difficult exercise. Would love to see what you’re working on and who you’re playing with!! Take care - Colin
@@colinhinton8186 Absoultely! I'm always looking for good exercises :) Rereading what I wrote I think I came across a bit more harsh than I meant to, so apologies about that!
Nice video... But I think that dynamics are hard to practise and just take some common sense. I know I am supposed to be a pro, but I have always lived in an apartment, and my practise is relatively quiet. Yet , without bragging, I am constantly told, and by some rockers you might know, how they love my use of dynamics. I don't think I am as good as you at some of the metric modulation or poly rhythm stuff, yet with a little common sense, dynamics , I understand. My advice to students is got to jams and get yelled at by a few diva singers, and you will learn. Anyway my undiscovered country is thedrummission on TH-cam. Enjoy your channel .
About the kick and snare volume... Well, I don't have this issue because I always smash the shit out of everything. Not the best thing at all environments, but well, I'm not even a actual drummer, so...
The engineer wanted every kick drum to be the same volume??? And did he want every guitar note to be the same volume? Every vocal note to be the same volume? Was he an idiot?
