This is a video I made in response to Brian who asked me to put up something a little easier. The edits are a little weired because I had to get it down under 10 min. If something does not make sense please let me know. I am using my new 6.5 x 13 Six Gun snare tuned very low. Basic lick - 0:30 Orchestration - 1:32 How to add the Hi-Hat - 2:20 Slow orchestrations - 4:16 Fast orchestrations - 5:13 Advanced orchestrations - 6:00 60 BPM - 7:13 80 BPM - 7:59 100 BPM - 8:27 120 BPM - 8:49 How to practice - 9:10

32nd note drum fill lick lesson

by drumennut on 01/29/2011 | 3,696 Views | 1 Comments

This lesson is a tiny bit sporadic; the original idea was to teach a short lesson on the 32nd note lick on beat 4. As I was filming I kept getting new ideas and kept adding to the video. It turned out to be 40 minutes of video, which I squeezed down to 10. The concept here is to show how small ideas can go a long way if you take the time to experiment with them. Have fun and practice slow, there is a little something for everyone in this one.

Freeing the Half-time shuffle: Dennis Chambers

Watch Now

This is a poly-rhythmic concept that you can add over top of a half time shuffle groove. It is an idea taken from Dennis Chambers. The idea is not to learn the things Dennis played note for note and stop, but to be able to take his concepts and ideas and apply them to your own playing in a personal expression.
