I like your teaching style. Plenty of shenanigans but they don't disrupt the pace of the video. You know in advance what you want to say and you say it simple and clear. Most people on youtube lack that sensibility.
Times he said 'blast beat': 20 Times he said 'blast': 13 Average 'blast beats' this video: 0.060 blastbeat/sec Average 'blast' (incl blast beat): 0.107 blast/sec That's a lot of blast beats

Dude, I love how you superimpose the kicks in the bottom corner, that's fantastic. Nice breakdowns of each beat, I just got my first double kick to play with a metal band after 2 decades of single kick triplets for punk rock bands. Loving it so far.
I’have recently come across your channel… Love it. As a completely blind drummer I’ve got to say you do a really good job of explaining things and even though I can’t see what you’re doing most things you’re playing I can figure out because of how you explain them thanks a lot keep it up
How times change... I remember when it was an absolute "no-no" hitting the snare and kick at the same time except for an ending shot, that's what my late drum teacher said, but it was 30 years ago. I think that you are an excellent drummer, almost next level. Thumbs up!
Hey Samus! Im not a drummer per-se (I'm multi-instrumental but I haven't been regularly around a drum kit in eons) but as someone who often listens to and analyzes drum parts for my own recordings (I end up programming them) this was a great source of information for future drum writing. Thank you!
I think the best piece of advice in the video is to start sloooooowly. I'm mean, it's ok to go ridiculously slow at the beginning to really understand where each hit is occurring. It takes months, even years, to go to fast tempi.
ImDeadLlama honestly just practicing the grav blast for like a month and it’s like down. Attempt to do it for like 10 minutes everyday and you’ll eventually get it. At the beginning it’s mostly about what you can do physically and physically getting the form down. Once you get that then you start trying to master triplets sixeteenth notes and changing up rythm with it.
The Erratic Drummer yes, doing it like as fast as you can is something worth a day while getting do go right to other rythms and stuff like that is a bit hardwr
It helps not only beginners. I use to play drums for a long time but was more into rock, prog or thrash metal. Wasn't doing blast beats at all. I recently got more into death and black metal so this video is very usefull. Thanks for the lesson!
Ive been a professional country drummer for almost 28 years and specialist in fast train beat brush playing and found this amazing although not my personal style. you're amazing sir
I really do think the "pussy blast" sounds great when used right. On slower, stompier riffs it let's the kick and snare keep up the speed but the slower cymbal work slows the feel down.
I love how you make the bass and snare alternating look so easy haha...It doesn't look hard to most but it really is difficult to alternate between your L hand and R leg.
Got a couple questions if possible: What kind of hand technique do you use? German or American grip and do you use your hip flexors for fast double bass?
Thank You for making your videos Man!!, They have helped me Tremendously with Particular problems i had with some Blast Beats! Again, Thank you soo much!! -Matt
I learned how to blast beat a year ago from this video. You're a wonderful teacher Samus keep up the great work my drum brother from another mother.🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖Oh yuuuuuuur
I watched this now, not because I play drums, but because I want to write my own songs and need ideas for programming patterns, so thank you for the information, it was actually really helpful 🤘🔨
Hey, @Samus! It's me from 2022, and we'd love to see more of these lesson videos, please! Even dealing with other instruments and how the drum interacts with the rest of the band musically.
Samus, I really like your vlogs. They're fast and interesting to watch You get to watch and can not stop because of the crazy edition and subjects that are put in the video (I know that today's video is not a vlog but I look forward to the next)
"Do yourself a flavor" I like that, some poetry in the middle of a blast beat lesson!
I love how this man is well educated and talented, yet he never seems to lose his sense of humor... He is a legend
I heard that too, was about to make a comment about it.
Do yourself a flavour. Try cookies and cream, or mango.
He's the first person ive ever heard say that other than myself lol i had to rewind it in confusion
He's quoting Tiny Tina from Borderlands.
you can be a drummer _and_ an ice cream maker
at the same time
It goes -
1: Polka beat
2: Skank beat
3: Blast beat
like dave did 😎
Blast blast beat
Don’t forget the diarrhea blast 😂
5: Allahu akbar blast
4. A10 Warthog
Instructions unclear, drumstick is in my butt now.

If you're enjoying it and it feels comfortable it means you're doing it right. Are you?
@@NympoGaming lol
thats how you play blast beats, right? i've doing that my whole life
Ass hole blast, gees. Careful making up your own.
You seem even more happy and energetic than before! Me thinks quitting that office job is doing you wonders..

You have too much time on your hands.
In the term "blast beat" there's the term "blast", so blast should be a higher number than blast beat :)
@@gabrielepesacane5430 so 33 times he said blast
Im a simple man, i see blast beat
I like
Ok
@@Alexis-qs7ex Yes, i agree
Who started the "I'm a simple man" thing anyways?
How many bands are you listening to, who play blast beats?
Unknxwn_Apex a simple man
I've been a guitar player for like 15 years and I've recently picked up drums. So I'm stoked on this lesson haha
Stroked. You meant stroked..
@@meshuggahdave5607 no he means stoked.
stroked is rubbed, while stoked is like hyped up.

You know, if only you could meet UA-cam commentators in person.
Just to see their eyes when they read my replies.
"I wipe my own ass" followed by the traditional blast gave me ASMR tingles
Loool
I’ve never had an interest in playing drums until I started watching your videos....now I want a drum kit lol
David Cole go for it. Life’s short
They are why I bought one. Its made me pay even more attention to drumming in songs than I already did.
Be sure you have a lot of time to practice. Otherwise it’s like trying to clear a forest with a hand saw.
I’m trying to get into a band so I need to get me a double bass drum set
Do it man, it's totally worth it and soo fun.
Ebay and amazon have cheap priced Good drumsets
Dude, I love how you superimpose the kicks in the bottom corner, that's fantastic. Nice breakdowns of each beat, I just got my first double kick to play with a metal band after 2 decades of single kick triplets for punk rock bands. Loving it so far.

30 years ago people were definitely hitting the snare and kick at the same time for a drum beat. Lol!
Honestly, hammer blast for me is way more difficult than traditional blast. Somehow slapping everything in unison really tightly is more finicky.
I like how you actually show and explain what's going on with the pedals. Almost every drum tutorial I've ever seen forgets that part.
Thx, mate!
I'll practice that on my guitar!

You forgot to mention your using the American grip and hip flexors.. 🤘🤘

66Samus: "...the final beginner blast beat is the Gravity Blast!"
*Bah dum tss*

This was the very very first thing I could do on drums
Gravity blast is the easiest blast.... It takes a day to learn if you try enough
The Erratic Drummer yes, doing it like as fast as you can is something worth a day while getting do go right to other rythms and stuff like that is a bit hardwr
Grav blasting is easy just don't let it intimidate you
It helps not only beginners. I use to play drums for a long time but was more into rock, prog or thrash metal. Wasn't doing blast beats at all. I recently got more into death and black metal so this video is very usefull. Thanks for the lesson!
You inspired me to finally practice blast beats after 20 years of drumming. Loving it.
U are doing full time now, great!
Dude, I love you! Total one-way bromance xD great video! So glad you're doing this full-time now!
Ive been a professional country drummer for almost 28 years and specialist in fast train beat brush playing and found this amazing although not my personal style. you're amazing sir
Although I’m not a drummer I love your videos and I think you’re a great teacher! You are the only person who can make blast beats worth listening to.

I like the way you break things down and demonstrate. Very easy to understand. Thanks dude.
This guy knows how to motivate me back to my Drumset
I don't know if you've ever done it... ut an in depth hand technique video would be sweet. I'd love to know your take on approaching certain things.
So exciting to see you doing this full time! I think everyone can feel how much happier you are already, brotha 🖤🤘
love the snare, picked one up back in 2010 and havnt looked back.
Got a couple questions if possible:
What kind of hand technique do you use? German or American grip
and do you use your hip flexors for fast double bass?
He uses hip flexors and American grip 👍
Nobody:
Absolutely no one:
Sam: *B L A S T B E A T S !*
Me: Blast beats!
This has been one of your best videos yet. Informative, blast beats, humour and blast beats.
You rock my friend! 🤘🏻 you are such a good teacher that even a violinist/guiguitarist like me can follow what I’m supposed to be doing.
2:25 *Lars?*
Profethor Thamuth, do a video about improving bass drum speed!
i think you found your calling, my dude. the simplified and friendly explanations made this stuff insanely easy to understand. you rock :3 ♀
I love the sound of your kit!
Dream theater - a nightmare to remember lmao
0:52 shortest Fear Factory - Demanufacture cover ever..
That is some smart comedy right there...love early FF
I found this very helpful.. I've been struggling with my own blast beats and this is a nice refresher! More blast beat vids like this please! 🥁🥁🥁
For real, I want to see how to do gravity blast, never heard of it
Thanks for making this! I'm not a drummer but seeing this all broken down makes it much easier for me to write drums to my music at home!
That one dislike is from Lars!
Károly Bendegúz Bók imagine Lars trying to do a blast beat. He’d have a heart attack
JustJoshingYT. I agree .
Károly Bendegúz Bók why would one of the most influential, and richest drummers in history dislike him, lars peobably would love this...
Transgender Ben Shapiro,i don’t think that ,I think that Blast Beats are too extreme for Lars! #justforfun :)
Lars is actually getting his speed up. Listen to hardwired album
Samus: "And just sneak that snare in there"
Snare: Busts in like the Kool Aid Man shooting a gun at the first Thanksgiving
new suscriber! you are a beast! i could understood the blast after these years! THANKS BRO
Awesome tutorial Samus, thank you man!!
Mmm that tone. THICCer than a snicker.
More like "thiccer than a trigger" pfft :D
3:55 i call it funeral fog blast
Perfect timing! Just got my new kit
I love blast beats from deep of my heart!
Turorial for each blast from that video please!!
Kick! Punch! It's all in the mind.
Anyone smell onion?
This dude is an excellent drummer. He explains things well too.
Great lesson Sam thank You!
You're amazing. Been watching you since the drunken drumming video with the lightning bolt edit.
Got my drum set last Saturday: trouble blasting at 360 bpm. What am I doing wrong?
your limbs might fall off if you don't start slow m8
😂😂😂😂😂
JovanRockNRoll :p r/bigwooooooosh
For the record, this was a joke. SEX!
I was bast beating at 360bpm at 13 years old! Did not even have a drum set, and porn hub did not exist!!
Killer video man!! Always good to have a refresher.
Such a PERFECT tutorial, thanks Samus!
Also, I did you a flavor by becoming patron! And I don't even play drums 🤪
I don't play them too
"Do yourself a flavor" lol

Me: picks drums sticks, tries the first beat.... No thanks ! I will stick to Enter Sandman stuff =)
wow you look so different without the big beard
Always super informative rock on brother!!!
Best explanation of a blast beat I've ever heard. Thanks bro
You're an approachable and comforting teacher. 🥁
Dude, it’s your first video I see and I love your teaching style and your sense of humor, I’ll practice that a lot, thank you! lml
A beautiful material! It helps very, very much !! Your English is also very good. But it was very easy to understand!
Even though I'm not fluent.
Bro I love your kit it sounds awesome
