Step 1: Left hand.
Step 2: Draw the rest of the owl.
haha I know
You can also play on left handed drums if youre right handed i guess
Hi mum, I'm on the internet.
as soon as it started speeding up, I knew this was gonna be one of the top comments
I mean... it's pretty comprehensive dunno what you're talking about
Never has a video left me wanting to practice and quit at the same time.
This also applies to me as a guitarist
LEFT me 😂😂
Ju Sin finally someone caught it
If you mean "...since the last Louis Cole clip", then I'm with you 💯%
@C. Doom Schneider wrestling is fake XD
“Louis cole plays the drums as a joke” is the most accurate way I’ve ever heard someone describe his chops
nobody ever talks about how fucking GOOD your production is, just so thick and snappy all at once
He makes it look like he's just clowning around...
Seriously his mixing/drum selection/mic selection & placement is just as good as his drum skills. So GOOD.
@@eclipse2966 I'm crying bro
first track: sounds like there's a descending sine getting triggered by the kick. how do you acoustically get that kind of quick pitch decay in a kick (or is Louis just triggering)?
@@gloverelaxis maybe its parallel lowpassed then distorted then combined with the dry signal again and then compressed or something?
i suppose just distorting only low frequencies could kinda give an effect like this since the high end is less prominent and thus the whole thing seems to drop in pitch?
im probably wrong but that would be my guess.
"conforming to society is optional, so is breathing i guess but cymbal grab is MANDATORY"
-Louis Cole may, 2020
if you have an iron lung under your giant trenchcoat like Big Band from SkullGirls: 2nd Encore, it certainly is!!!!!!
"If, at some point, you think that it is foolish or boring to just sit here and watch your breath go in and out,
note to yourself that this is just a thought, a judgment that your mind is creating. Then simply let go of it and bring your attention back to your breathing.
If the feeling is very strong, try the following additional experiment,
which we sometimes suggest to our patients who feel similarly bored with watching their breathing:
Take the thumb and first finger of either hand, clamp them tightly over your nose, keep your mouth closed,
and notice how long it takes before your breathing becomes very interesting to you!"
/Jon Kabat-Zinn/
but the cymbal grab is mandatory

Beat #3 sounds an awful lot like "Hell", by Clown Core. Must be a coincidence.
;)
The praise break from hell!
no fucking way i was thinking the same thing are we soulmates
The song was reccomended afterwards xD
IT IS HIM
This is actually a great tutorial because it really shows how important it is to start off slowly. People have a habit of going way too fast when trying to learn things for the first time, but ya gotta learn to play it slow before ya can play it fast.
p r e a c h
And before you think about speeding up, think about getting in the groove first, with all the little details in there.
also it's typically "harder" to play slow and really in the groove, so even if you can technically play it fast, practicing slow helps the groove thang
@@Gnurklesquimp That's exactly what makes him awesome: he keeps that groove going even at the FAST tempos!
As a guitarist, this took me damn near 7 years to actually accept. Eventually I got to a point in my playing where I couldn't just speed my way through something and have it sound really good. It still pains me to play shit slowly, but it's absolutely necessary to develop the proper technique.
I lost it at "Cymbal grab is mandatory". A true musician.
do i have to tell my friends
Yeah
having friends is optional
wait it's you
Telling your friends is MANDATORY
That's pretty much what he said
I love the performance, but even more I love the mixing on these drums.
hard compression?
Thats is the point of the style, distorsion drums fuzz etc.. more dubstep and industrial
HARSH NOISE
Killer tone. 85% of it is the drums and mic placement.
@Mastadon what about it?
You know that tiny little pocket in your jeans? That's where Louis Cole plays.
I've been playing for 38 years and I just played groove #2 here for over an hour. Now I can kinda play it ... slow. You Sir, are a BADASS !!
I've been playing for 30 years and after 2 hours I quit
3:09 the way he mutes the snare right after letting it ring is impeccable. sorry I don't know the proper term.
You said it just fine. It is absolutely ridiculous how detailed his playing is. Utterly badass.
the random stick tosses at the end of each demo kill me
i completely missed that little detail. this dude is a genius!
Yeah, I noticed that as well. Such a nice variation in the sound.
So locked in
beat 4 is so good, seriously
"Here I decided to play something else"
*shreds
This guy has so much talent. He regularly writes beats that dwarf the amen break.
If entire genres of music were born of a 6 second drum sample...
I wonder how much music Louis Cole will go on to inspire?
Infinity.
I think he wants to overcome Patton😃
After his new album - Its going to be a lot
Skill. Talent implies natural ability and is kinda insulting.
was thinking about learning louis cole grooves yesterday but could find none thank you louis cole for addressing this and reading my mind have a nice day
I was thinking about this a week ago. I think there is something going on, Cole knower too much.
Zach Hill, JD Beck and you should make a Drums only super group called: We play all the notes.
hmmm and damon che
Sounds like a perfect lineup for Drumgasm Vol.2
and greg saunier and takashi kashikura
I think Zach and Louis would actually blend in a very interesting way. I'd love to hear them play together. Zach Hill can really lay down a groove when he wants.
also Brian Chippendale
3:29 is the perfect tempo, that is just a pristine break.
Thought the same. Delicious, tight funky beat delivered on point.
The tempo @ 3:29mm is really "Go Go." The tempo *after* that is just pure Louis Cole.
2:59 this beat is genius in so many ways, but the biggest thing is how he gets different sounds by sometimes muting the snare with the base of his palm, both when doing the side stick, and when hitting with his left stick on the snare.
It's chillhop vibe.Reminds me Samurai Champloo
@@sandansaiyan5675 oooo yeahh I can hear it!
10 Years ago he showed us his skill. Now he teaches us how
I have always loved every aspect of your amazing musicality, but your drumming is what blows me away the most. You are truly gifted and thank you for sharing your gift with all of us
Listen his solo projects.He has great vocal
Finally we know what beat 3 was for. Thank you, KNOWER FOREVER
its also in a clown core song, but thats totally coincidence
Thank you for this lesson. İt was so clear.
Work work work, here s the secret :)
abi seni burda göreceğimi hiç düşünmezdim................................
Indeed rihanna was right all this time
Honestly. This is more influential than anything I’ve heard in a few years on acoustic drums. Like my fuckin lord brother! Get it!!
i was supposed to see Louis Cole live last month....this makes me sad it got cancelled
Same. Was looking forward to his Seattle show in April 😔
Same! I was gonna be at Seattle too.
I got extremely lucky because I got to see him in December. I wasn't sure exactly what he meant by "big band" but my hopes was that it was a setup the same or similar to his "live sesh" band and that's exactly what it was! All of those musicians are incredible but I was so happy to see Sam Wilkes and Jacob Mann on stage doing their thing.
Whenever all of this Covid nightmare is over and Louis is able to do shows again, make sure you go. You won't regret it.
don't worry, at least know he saw you last month, through your bedroom window
I was supposed it see him in San Francisco and that was the week everything shut down. Tragic. A year of great shows ruined.
This is so nuts, Louis could probably be the most groovy/technical death metal drummer if he wanted. What a King.
my man, lemme tell you about clown core...
I can't believe I've one just found out about your drumming and music. You are phenomenal!
Welcome to the Louis Cole ride
🤡🥁
check out Clown Core. it's Lewis at his jazzy best.
Now can you give us a tutorial on how you mixed the drums?? They sound PHAT!
yeah plz
In an interview he mentions slamming them hard in Ozone with a short release
One of the best performances on UA-cam. Outstanding.
the whole bunch of creativity is culminating in that drumfill at 1:26 which is truly adorable and quite on point!
Dude, the snare tone in #4 holy hells
When will we get a Louis Cole MasterClass? 👀👀
He does it all of the time. You just have to stay awake during the weird part of the night.
Like that Skwissgaar one?
Here you have the master class 😊
A small tutorial on your drum sound processing would be much appreciated! I love your minimal setup and approach.
late reply, but in an interview he said he sometimes uses shit like laptop and camera mics for that dirty tone, maybe just mount webcam mics on each drum lol
BEEN PLAYING,writing and producing for 40 years. These patterns (or is it me) are uplifting and amazing. I love Louis Cole.
So generous of you to post this. These are so cool and it so important to help us know what is meaningful and not ephemeral
Turns over to my MPC, thinks to self “This is gonna be a breeze”.
hahah doing the same here.
immediately thought of sampling this all myself too haha
same here with s2000 ... :D
Hehe
same here, i see there is some breakbeat lovers around here haha
For the first time in a fair while I feel inspired to play some drums, thanks man
Amazing ! Everything I was taught for the last 48 years has been thrown out the window thanks to Mr. Cole !
All the drummers on here are thinking - finally. Nice to see some breakdowns of the beats. Joyous. You have an elegant little finger... (pinkie for the Americans?). Thanks for doing this.
I'd pay good money to hear 4:22 for at least a half hour straight!
The way you just.. *ugghh* is so satisfying
That sound on the 2 & 4 is just the most beautiful thing I've ever heard
i really wish there was a song with that at that speed
My dude,
Not only is this truly helpful, but your skill and style are both incomparable. You are, simply put, one of the coolest and most talented people on the planet. Keep on rockin'; for all of us.
Thanks for sharing the love, Louis. Studying you took my playing to the next level.
The video is so straight to the point ! I love how brutal are the 6 first seconds
It's so awesome to have the actual left handed part written out so I don't have to convert everything in my head, and I can't wait to try out some of the left handed setups in the vid. Awesome tutorial and with no extra work for left handed drummers too :)
Notice the right hand grip. The first finger knuckle bent to form a firm fulcrum. This allows the remaining fingers to pull for increased speed. Also notice the right wrist position not arcing down, this allows the hand from opening to much and helps the fulcrum from opening up.
Watching you play and learning these beats is really highlighting some flaws in my hand technique. Thank you so much, I feel like I can take some real steps forward in improving now!
dude whatever processing you did sounds incredible! and I can hear the squeaking of your foot pedal. I actually adds something really cool to your beats
Can't get enough of this. Like give me a 10 hour video of just Louis drumming!
Louis, as a fellow musician and aspiring drummer let me just say: I really love what you are doing. Thank you for sharing yourself with the world, and keep it up.
Don’t miss a day of practice don’t do it you will thank me in the future
Listening to this on headphones. Love the muffled warm sound with a hint of distortion.
Discovered your music yesterday and i’m totally amazed ! 🔥
The text during beat 1 is hilarious. You’re the most stoic comic ever
Love everything about him
cymbal grab is MANDATORY
I laughed too
i just wish i had more control over my kick foot
Same.
I'm in the same boat. My brain just can't process my foot movement on top of what my hands are doing. I can do pretty much all these beats without the kick, but as soon as I add it my brain shuts down and the next thing I know, there is a drumstick pierced through the head of one of my toms.
@@gustafsone the trick I've found that works is practice it REAAAAALLLLY slow, like so so it is actually easy, maybe start out at 10BPM, then when you feel comfortable at that speed go up +10BPM
@@blahuhm6782 That's the trick to practice and master every instrument, glad you found it!
That's the part of this that looks hardest to me. How's he doing it so fast and consistently despite appearing to lift his whole leg each time? Being thin as a rail probably helps, for real, but still, damn
Excellent creative drummer.. we need more guys like him
you've helped me in so many ways with being comfortable with myself and my music .
I got the first beat down pretty quickly although I can't get anywhere near as fast as you! Beat 2 is tripping me up and is making me realize one of my biggest shortcomings as a drummer. Even playing slow I'm finding it REALLY hard to marry what my left hand is doing with the snare/ghost notes and what my right hand is doing on the hi-hat. HNNNNNNNNNNNGH
I am left handed, and a super nube drummer, and was feeling pressure to just learn right-handed - this gives me confidence to play how I naturally feel I should THANKS
Use it man! I am so jealous of the unique licks from the lefties who learned in their own way, being traditional is boring
This was perfectly explained without any talking. As a beginner it got me to the point real quickly.
Wow, that is a delicious snare and bass. Almost electronic sounding at that point. Love the punchiness man. Keep it up.
this video is how I figured out he was in clowncore; I've never seen anyone else tape a bell cymbal to their snare
Nate Wood.
You must be mistaken, surely it's just a coincidence...
look jd beck up! guy's a solid 🔥
Doughnut PANTS are a necessary part of this tutorial.
Don't forget to mention that, Cole.
You can't play this style of drums without loud chef's pants.
the fourth one... just loved it.. so musical
I’m right handed and im always amazed how a simple beat sounds different if I go left hand lead cool ideas man you got a killer sound and feel 🤟🥁🤟
amazed at how he gets such a great sound out of such a ratchet looking drum kit
Hehe, yeah. It feels like an aesthetic: cheap looking kit, cheap midi keyboard, lo-fi/retro/intentionally amateurish graphics, insane skills. I love it.
*"you might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like"*
Maybe after clowncore sold those etf scams, he will coincidentally get another tom out of nowhere
All drums were found dumpster diving. LC is sponsored by Waste Management 😉
Louis knows that gear is about #100 on the list of what makes for a good sound.
can u teach me a drum beat that would bring my father back home from the k-mart.
Beat 4 at full speed is sufficient for this task.
He left because you played to loudly so I would suggest toning down your power and maybe use dampening materials.
Is he paying in full or looting something?
4:18
Your dad didn't know he could ship his pants? I just shipped my pants.
Excellent playing. Great chops, stick control, and sound. Very inspiring.
Louis doesn't do drum 'n bass by samples, he IS the samples!
How the F do you get your kick to sound so electronic? All the compressors and saturators are on point for everything, but that kick sounds unreal (especially in the first beat)
He posted it on Twitter
My bass drum sound: Smaller drum 16”-20”. Ambassador heads (sometimes hole) No muffling inside the kick drum. Some muffling outside of both heads (a rag leaning up against the head). Tune all bolts loose on resonant side. Medium tension on hitting side with 2-3 bolts fully loose (pasted from twitter)
Scott ty
Sounds like some healthy saturation, compression and possibly transient shaping. And also mic placement ofc
I was just thinking the same thing. I would appreciate any recommendation you have to get that kick sound in live performances.
Thank Odin he showed the score written for right-handed mortals.
man, i'm so in love with your songs, your beats and your humour ;) thanks for this tuto !!
Absolutely incredible, like Bernard Purdy crossed with The Terminator!
Can't fool me, this video was recorded in a universe where drumming is an autonomic function and breathing is not
clever
I’m just impressed you never hit your right hand with the stick in beat 4
Great tutorial, I managed to play all of these after a few listens. I almost felt like I knew these beats instinctually, as if I had heard them somewhere before...
Omg I just found the tutorial I've been looking for for agessssss I have been wondering how you played these kind of things for ever.. thank man! just found your stuff and im hooked!
This reminds me the Buckethead guitar tutorials. But this is actually a REAL tutorial
I wantvyo watch a documentary in this style of editing
i love how this translates to anything. you wanna get good at sth? do it. consistently. over. and over.over. and over.over. and over.over. and over. again. and then some more. did i mention that you are one of my all time fav drummers, louis. the way you funk up beats is just so thrilling. besides u seem to be a fun person overall and these text overlays.. i can't even...
3:55 unbelievable. The focus he had on those kicks put me in a coffin. Shits SO good!
what equipment does he use to record lmao i’m not a drummer but i play other instruments and i’m amazed at how great of a sound he’s getting
1:02 that drumsound!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's so beastly.
tight af...dare i say better than jeff porcaro's timbres
Louis, this video has been invaluable to me. I've been working off this video for weeks and weeks and am seeing major improvement in myself. I owe it all to you. P.S. This is also how I found out about your music, which kicks butt!!!
Very creative! Also, hat's off to your recording skills. Drums sound amazing, especially that kick drum! Damn!
0:38 LET ME SAY GOOD MORNING MY FRIEND
For those that don't get the reference. Beat 1 is the beat from "I love Louis Cole" by Thundercat, a fantastic song that introduced me to this amazing channel.
Scholars rejoiced. This is like the Rosetta Stone
needs more swiss army triplets
I love that random horse inviting himself on the hi-hat at 1:48.
So kickass. Beat at 3:28 is my fave - the damp and open snare hits! Recorded well too.
I couldn’t help singing “Bombs Over Bagdad” over that last beat. Anybody else?
Not until you said it. Thank you
ua-cam.com/video/0mo9dLm3Q6k/v-deo.html
The horse made me nostalgic...
T horse made me think....i want some of what he's got.
Christ this man has such an insane amount of talent.
This is AWESOME! Love the beats and fills!
literally just a drum and bass sample pack disguised as a tutorial
Drum's Heaven lmfao iM nOt EvEn A dRuMmEr
@Drum's Heaven that wasn't an insult mate
@Drum's Corner wtf is your problem
I want to feed you a cake.
also, you are good at the drumming.
All of these beats are excellent at any ANY tempo.
I'm glad I'm alive at the same time as Louis Cole.
Can you do an explanation on why you put cymbals on your drums - I love the sound, but I'm curious to the origin. I got turned onto you from your old ass Jungle (DnB?) drumming video and you had the cymbal there (and here). I'm wondering if you learned that from someone else or if that is just a common technique. Are there any other drummers that use that technique that you look up to or recommend?
Mark Guiliana and Jojo Mayer have both been known to do it. I've also seen Larnell Lewis and Sput do it as well.
@@andrewwray8778 JD Beck as well c:
My guess would be it saves space when you play in a stairwell and you also don’t have to buy another cymbal stand
half of these things can be played with a kick, snare, and hat. would be cool to bust these out on a three piece lol
I like the clack echo it gives the snare. He uses something to deaden the snare in beat two. Just experiment with your instrument and have fun.
So are you gating your own snare, acoustically at 3:07 ?
Having never seen Sir Louis Cole i assumed this was just some guy showing a tutorial on louis' style.
Imagine my surprise
Thank you so much for posting this its helped make sense of so many things!!! Louis I found you on youtube but I'll love you forever. You are the hardest working man here. Please please post more tutorials!!! xoxo jenny lou
