      So, we know your history with drums in the video you did talking about how they have been a part of your life. I would LOVE to see a video about all the different types of genres you've played and what you've gotten from each genre of music.
      I believe the difference between a drummer and a musician is the ability to adapt and use the tools you have amassed over the years for each genre. A drummer might be able to play the world's fastest blast beats, but they aren't going to be playing it in a worship setting. (Please prove me wrong in this because I would love to bring my double bass to church 😂😂)
      All that to say, you are a VERY experienced musician and I would like to know how different genres of music have influenced you, not necessarily particular drummers. (Although I realize that they can be one and the same)
      Thank you again for your content, it simply just makes me want to be better at my craft!

      @Trevor S What a great suggestion man! I've definitely gone through my fair share of genres over time, from punk, metal, prog rock to jazz fusion, and now I like lo-fi. 😂
      Pretty crazy how musical taste changes over time but as a drummer it DEFINITELY helps to learn as much as possible. I'll give this one some thought. Thanks for the suggestion!

      THAT is the collaboration and video we all want and need. I feel like there's some drum science (not sure what) that could be discussed or discovered.

    As a drummer, play some polyrythms on a piano over some basic chords. I tried it once in front of a number of musicians, and they were intrigued as they'd never seen someone play the piano like it before. They had a puzzled look as they tried to figure out what I was doing.

  • @markusmeiser9436
    @markusmeiser9436 2 роки тому +9

    great video :) just a small explanatory addition:
    the different fundamental subdivisions are defined not only by their quantity per quarter note but also the fact that they're evenly spaced amongst each quarter note.
    1:51 so if you want to play triplets for example, you not only have to play 3 notes per quarter note (since e.g. two 16th-notes + one 8th note would also be three notes within a quarter note, without them being triplets) but also time them evenly.. as you did, but I thought it would helpful to mention that :)
    3:20 also to avoid possible confusion for beginners I would always recommend to not use the same syllable counts for triples like you use for 8ths & 16ths.
    Even if it's probably usually distinguishable from the given context
    Counting 8ths 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + and 16ths 1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a fits, since the "+"s are the same,
    but if you then count triplets with 1 + a 2 + a 3 + a 4 + a that could confuse some people who are just starting, especially younger music students, since e.g. the "+" is not the same beat as the "+" from the 8ths & 16ths - like shown at 4:32 (where you then used "&")
    just my 2 cents :)

    • @BrandonScottDrums
      @BrandonScottDrums  2 роки тому +6

      Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I’ve just always counted triplets that way but I see how it can get confusing. There’s too many ways to go about things with the drums. I just do my best with these vids lol. Thanks for watching and giving helpful tips! 🙌🏼

    • @MikeyDew72
      @MikeyDew72 2 роки тому +3

    • @paulrose343
      @paulrose343 2 роки тому

      Absolutely! I believe that each place on the grid should have a unique and specific name. For example, if I describe the note to be on the "and of two " that is different than it being on the " trip of two".

You should meet me at 9th and Washington sometime for a burrito. Prima. Best burrito in Philly. Also, you gotta look up the drummer of Philadelphia drum company if you're not already friends with him. Ethan Feinstein. He's definitely no question a good drummer but his band is phenomenal. "Out of the beard space." The guitar player, cat on the keys and bass player anybody would want to jam with. He's got a bunch of videos posted on his Facebook I watched this weekend.
