I've always been a fan of technique for how it felt to me and allowed me to do things. Seeing this guy reach great stick heights and achieving great sounds and quality of tone is inspiring and amazing
Tommy Igoe in all my years of drumming I have never come across anyone as great as he is. The way he explains with kindness & conveys his passion is pure genius
This guy gives great lessons. This is a great groove. On the extra fast samba, you can use quarter notes part of the time on the ride until you can get the strength to play it in all eighth notes. The left hand pattern will keep the feel going with the bass drum. Just like his explanation of the really fast jazz cymbal pattern, you can revert to quarter notes part of the time to keep from "running out of gas" on the pattern.
...this groove... boy, I tell ya... ...this life... boy I tell ya... ...this stuff... That I got from the roadie, that he got from his dude... boy, I tell ya!
Bossa is in 4/4 (4ter note feel) while the samba is in 2/2. Quite different feels, and the basic snare rythm of bossa-nova is very specific. A theme like Wave (Antonio Carlos Jobim) is built around the bossa-nova clave. Most people don't understand that, you hear a drummer playing a samba, and a sax destroying the theme...
He's counting as if samba is in 4/4. I suppose that makes for easier verbal counting. But samba is usually written in 2/4. Correct counting would be "1 e & uh 2 e & uh."
What would you guys suggest if you literally can not get this groove down, no matter how many times people teach it to you, how many videos you watch, and no matter how much you practice?
keep practicing it until you do. slow it down. play it one limb at a time, then two limbs, etc. work on your limb independence. play with a metronome at all times.
Maybe try a bossa nova instead? 😂. But seriously try to find the samba equivalent to this format. It's a game-changer ua-cam.com/video/irJsKRITa7M/v-deo.htmlsi=AU9_RmzFjhq6xXPC
He showed an accent to show the 'wrong' way to play. And after that he convince the learner it is not supposed to be an accent like what he just showed, but the right way is not with accent like he played formerly.

Igoe is a genius! Love the language he uses when he teaches.
yes, he is a musician...not only a drummer

He’s such a legends. Amazing drummer AND person

Amazing teacher and drummer… I employ much of his philosophies and approach to teaching with my own students at American One Productions in NJ
His dad was a really great guy and amazing drummer.
Right beat to my Brazilian samba lover ears!
Wow! Sounds great. Dynamics, tempo, feel. Looks so effortless. Inspiration!
Didática perfeita! Congrats
I love how passionate he teaches on the samba beat =D really interesting to watch
This is awesome. What a brilliant step by step instructions from a great master teacher. Saleem
...this groove... boy, I tell ya...
...this life... boy I tell ya...
...this stuff... That I got from the roadie, that he got from his dude... boy, I tell ya!
Tommy Igoe... boy I tell ya
2:40 the crosstick looks like the vocal melody of Bad Guy from Billie Eilish
coincidence maybe
ive literally been thinking that for ages
Yeah always reminded me of a samba!
Thanks Tommy amazing teacher
Thnks that hi hat correction is great. Makes a great difference,u the man👍
Its like each of his hands and feet have a brain of its own. Amazing.
You make it look so easy man. Love watching this but gotta practice.
So glad I discovered this tutorial. Will be happy if I can play half of the syncopation, but I'll strive to play it all.
Tommy Igoe is great
What is the jazz tune in the intro? Up to about 0:17. I like it.
Superb!
Love it. Beautifully explained and played. Thanks
Thanks for sharing,this is i need to practice
Amazing!!!! True!!!!!!! Thank you for this information, Now I am changing the way I was playing bossa!!!
Bossa is in 4/4 (4ter note feel) while the samba is in 2/2. Quite different feels, and the basic snare rythm of bossa-nova is very specific. A theme like Wave (Antonio Carlos Jobim) is built around the bossa-nova clave. Most people don't understand that, you hear a drummer playing a samba, and a sax destroying the theme...
Super thank you good lesson Tommy Igoe
А перевод на русский есть
Man... Samba bossa. I love, I play the first one, second is too fast. Lol. Well done mate.
It is very difficult for a drummer from a country other than Brazil to play a decent samba. But Tommy did very well !!
I totally agree with you! His body movements are also very into samba.
He's counting as if samba is in 4/4. I suppose that makes for easier verbal counting. But samba is usually written in 2/4. Correct counting would be "1 e & uh 2 e & uh."
Gracias eternas
tommy é um mito
Tommy's words; it's really really easy...
Tooop lembrar-se bateras unidos jamais será vencidos ☕ muito bom.
Excelente!! 👏👏👏🎉
5:23 dope
genius Thanks. ;)
Samba is hard I'm Brazilian and I don't know how to play I'm still learning and I'm 50 already I just started unfortunately!
Damm it makes it so cool
Nothing inspires as much as that guy does.
👍🙂*I would call the “not an accent”, simply an inflection..👍🙂 😂And if you play the inflection too hard, it’s an “infliction”! 😂‼️

@1:55 "That's an accent, that's not an accent" WHAT?!
He was just saying to shank the hihat but don't accent it.
He showed an accent to show the 'wrong' way to play. And after that he convince the learner it is not supposed to be an accent like what he just showed, but the right way is not with accent like he played formerly.
Anybody know the intro song?
Audio choppy for anyone else?
What sticks is he using
Genius
No se podra en español esto es muy intendible
Where can I get the backing track of that song

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
SÜPERRR
Samba is 2/4, not 4/4
Great instruction but the gulping though:)
This is a perfect american samba not brasilian
👍😂So, what I think he’s saying is, it’s NOT an accent..
와 줃대네
Didn't know that Jamie Lannister do drums
The left hand root rhythym is literally Bad Guy by Billie Eilish
I'd rather say Bad Guy is root rhythm
m
He cant slow down. 😂
