    The internet definitely needs more good drum video instructions. There is so many jokers who've been hitting drums for a year or two who now give drum lessons. This channel is dope.

    Wow I have never really thought about doubles in this way! If you didn't say it's doubles I would assume you are playing paradidles. It flows very well but it's kind of mind bending. Thank you Steve you are so creative and unconventional. That's why I love your channel.

    Excellent communicator. You stay on target, do not get full of improv shenanigans, and remain perspicuous (yeah I used that word). Your pedagogy is solid...which is the intended goal right? The only thing I would add is 1) [this is a phrasing video, but...] Offer teaching on the double-stroke or references to get a better grasp (I wanted to know more of how you developed your facility when watching). 2) A summary statement...in this video I covered...and then illustrate adding a positive statement that is personal, "I really love using this..."

    Sweet. Reminds me of junior drum corps. I’d forgotten how good those sound when polished up. Your speed is enviable and that advice about movement from drum to drum could not be more important. It’s that task that has me looking for the hardware where I can keep my toms close and level as well - for easier lateral movement. Still lookng..

    Good to see you still online, Steve. I remember the first videos I saw from you ten years ago from house of drumming. It was before youtube was big and I was regularly checking the drummer's section on musiciansforums. I just had to think of you and was curious if you were still active on the net. And here you are.

    Thank you for this video. I’ve been doing 5 stroke rolls for a while, but these are helping me to understand exactly what I’m doing when displacing the accents and it’s helping me find new ways to apply them. Interestingly though, I actually watched the last 20 seconds at the end where you’re applying the fill to different grooves like 15 times. I never really learned how to play cool jazz grooves like that. You’re so damn good at them! Really cool how you use broken crappy cymbals sometimes too. Lol.

      @thomassurdi1 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Steve Holmes yeah the faster groove at the 10 minute mark is very interest. I guess it’s more of a big band type feel. I would find that very useful if I could get good at it.

    The double strokes 'merge in to one' because the hand action starts changing with the speed. The elbows are still moving more or less the same but the hands are taking over.

  • @don4476
    @don4476 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Charly Antolini has a double stroke roll that sounds like single. I don't mean similar. I mean exactly. You can not tell it's double. You'd swear it's single until you see him playing. When I first saw it, it freaked me out. I didn't know it could actually be done. We talk about it, and work towards it. Charly can actually do it.

    Loving your vids, new to drumming (old to music). Quick question, thanks in advance, does the tightness of the snare head matter when doing these or not much? I can't get these going at all, could it be my snare is not tight enough? Or does that not matter at all? Thanks!

    Hi Steve - great content here.. I've been working on expanding my triplets vocabulary for some time. Can this phrasing be successfully used within or as 16th note triplets? Not diddling the accent of course. Turning them into 5 stroke rolls and the like.. A brief reply woul be so helpful, thanks..

    • @SteveHolmesDrums
      @SteveHolmesDrums  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Technically no because 16th trips = 6 strokes per quarter and using the 5 stroke roll it's only 5 but you still get that flow. For all intents and purposes it sounds the same but it's important to know the difference if you're doing it.
