After watching so many videos about this, Benny makes it all fall into place. Mein lieblingsdrummer lol.

    So when you want a single bass stroke you lift your hip and tap or do you lift your hip and let it fall as a dead meat? Benny you are one of my favorite drummer by far thank you, I bought last year language of drumming still working on it, is amazing, the foundation of the drumming journey..

  • @profesormiodektezczlowiek4358

    Hello Sir!
    Great video, as always. My foot sucks and I need your help...
    1. Do you ever bury a beater?
    2. If so, what is the the rule: how long it stays in the head? I know that you don't try to overthink this and it's already build in, but maybe you can elaborate on this.
    3. Let's say you need to play quarter notes in 10 bmp, do you drop your whole foot on the pedal imidiately or: first, you drop your ball and resting whole foot is separate step.
    4. How do you avoid pain in your tigh when your leg is suspended for tapping. How "you" keep your foot in relaxed state all the time since your starting point isn't "buried" position?
    Thank you, take care!

    Amazing drummer. I’ve seen this technique referred to as “hop and drop” technique. Has worked well for me especially for accenting second beat of double stroke. And can be a starting point for development of toe heel technique (similar but reverse motion of heel toe). Heel toe has worked well for accenting first beat of double stroke or no accent (like doubles between hands and feet). IME, these techniques take many years of practice to obtain consistent rhythmic accuracy.

    How tight should you have tension on the pedal? I.e. In relaxed state is the beater in contact with the bassdrum - cheerios

    • @SkyOrchid
      @SkyOrchid 4 роки тому

      It depends if you are going for speed or for power. For example, for speed you would want the tension to be tight so you don't have to do any work for the beater to come back from the head
