Thanks a lot

Yeah, Jason! Valuable lesson.

I'm not a drummer but I love seeing the thought process of incredible musicians. Thanks for this

Thanks...

Thank you Jason. This is so helpful for students and, as you rightly say, 'frees you from licks'.

Super.

Inspiring content, Jason… Thank u

Great lesson and advice!

Idk but u seem so cool

Nuclear Airergin!

Sounds great as always. Melody! I love the term from Ralph Peterson “rudimental lyricism” - dig that!

Love your videos! Absolutely nailing the sound

Great concept, great advice, thanks 👍🏽

If u play drums in jazz at the correct tempo u can play anything.. nobody will know the difference

great and usefull

Nice I find it difficult when playing take 4. Instrument solos with drum solos in between. Should i keep time with the hi-hat? What to do with the base drum?

Excellent!

Fresh and simple👏

Thanks great content as always cheers from Australia

Excellent 👌

great content

Nice one Jason I'll try this idea later on today

Great video man. I'm an old wanna be jazz drummer. Played mostly Country Clubs and Hotels the last 30 to 40 years. You pack a lot of great information into 9:21!! One suggestion, if you could put a graphic of the sticking on the screen some how, I think that would be helpful. For all those visual learners out there. Great stuff, keep it up.

Jason, Always great and informative videos. I see someone played Roughing the Single Drag by Wilcoxon.

Your a great drummer!

Yeah!!!!!

Heck yeah!!!!!

Hi, do you offer private online lessons? Thanks!

Thanks a lot 🙏🏽

Happy Birthday!

bardzo dziękuję

Wish this guy lived next door😂

This was an excellent lesson thank you very much. I can be found at awesome 5/8 Groove

Bro, you are a killer player. Wow. Great vid.

Very informative, useful material with mature, professional comments! Thank you very much!!

What size and model is the Bosphorus ride (main) in the video / thanks/ excellent

Thats gotta be Pat right? Or is it Ledonne... Great vid by the way, love the "Think fast think big phrases" Mantra, helped me out

Excellent Jason. Thank you so much.

Nice job Jason.

In up tempo playing there is less space between the quarter note There fore that simplifying philosophy is very true I think that how you hear the time is also crucial I really enjoyed this video, !!!

Fantastic lesson! Thank you. Your uptempo playing is impressively relaxed.

Nice, but regarding the live clip, why rush when the tempo is already so fast?

Putting the “up” back into “up tempo” 🔥 top notch 👏 For another video, I’d love to see a detailed demonstration of your foot work at these tempos. (How about your: seat hight and position, angle of your feet towards the pedals, feet position on the pedals etc I find it even more challenging to keep the feet moving smooth, relaxed and steady at fast tempos than the hands. Thanks for the nice content

What sticks are you using

I think one thing worth considering/investigating is the tendency for the right/ride hand to have an easier time developing true up-tempo capabilities, such that many individual's left/snare hand doesn't "think" quite as well as the right. To illustrate this, I would point to the reality that up-tempo ride patterns (admittedly straightened out) are still near perfect analogs to their medium and slow tempo counterparts...however, your standard snare patterns (if you go through just about any jazz drum set instruction book) do not transfer up to those blazing-fast up-tempo performances. If you look at the frequency of snare hits on the "and" of beats, and then compare medium tempo versus up-tempo, you'll see that as the tempo increases, the frequency of independent single hits on the "and" diminish. At faster tempos, snare hits will be more and more likely to drop directly on the beat. There are many recordings of drummers playing entire sections of uptempo tunes with not a single snare hit between beats. It is almost as though the right hand can "think" at those speeds and still feel the divisions but the left hand cannot. So syncopation on the snare nearly vanishes at true up-tempo speeds. In general this is what we see with up-tempo playing. As an oversimplification, the tendency for many drummers is actually to play the ride and hi-hat at a given bpm, but the snare and bass comping at half that bpm (at least in terms of phrasing). As an exercise, it might be helpful for drummers to take some comping patterns (and I can think of a few from the Beyond Bop book, but any decent teacher/book will have good exercises), specifically comping patterns that feature some decent syncopation and then work on them until the pattern can be pulled all the way up to up-tempo speeds while remaining analogous to its medium-speed counterpart. Returning to my initial statement, I think/suspect that up-tempo jazz drumming evolved as it did (in large part) because the right/ride hand got there first and the left hand never really arrived. (Tony Williams is an exception that immediately comes to mind. And I'm sure there are others.) Hopefully this made sense. Let me know what you think.

quick lesson and easy to follow. Thanks for the lesson!

Excellent in every respect. Greetings from Palatinate, Germany

If you learn verry slow ...you can do it verry fast !,

Ripping! Also couldn’t agree more with what you said at the end about this not being a lick based music. Have to put the hours in listening and mimicking!

Great stuff J. T. !
