    I just got done with my third brain surgery and I gotta say, it's been hard to get back to even my rudiments, but I go back to your archives and it's the ONLY videos that are getting me back to my skill level the fastest. Thanks for these videos, truly a blessing!!❤

      Haha trust me, many drummers (including myself) still struggle with the weaker hand!
      Thanks for watching, bud!

    I appreciate that you show grooves that can help my left hand, because the other exercises like strokes and rudiments sometime feels like I'm not utilizing it in my playing. I'm still doing them, but grooves are the main reason I drum haha 😅
    Thanks a bunch, buddy!

    • @ThatSwedishDrummer
      @ThatSwedishDrummer  6 місяців тому

      It's good to practice both, but yeah - I agree. Grooves are what we get paid for (most of the times haha!) 😃

  • @illnino1368

    I appreciate this so much. I'll try to practice these grooves as much as possible. Could you possibly make even more weak-hand exercises?
    CHEERS CJ!!

    whoa the mini gun lfg.
    i would love to see a double bass drum warm up coupled with the mini gun. a full 20-22 min warm up! if you are looking for video ideas. i can't find any video on the internet that is a good double bass drum practice/weak hand groove warm up/practice at the same time, hint hint. :) have a great day buddy!

    Very great stuff. Getting both hands acquainted with every part of the kit at equal strength and speed builds up that independence and consistency. Great beats man

    Great lesson! But of course my hands are equally strong (or nowadays, rather weak...)... :D I remember trying to catch up with Clyde Stubblefield (he played a lot with James Brown). His "in the pocket feeling" was insane, especially in songs like "I´ve got the feelin´". It is hard to find something funkier when it comes to drumming, and to set the ghost notes in that song is certainly a challenge for the left hand. I also played Sting - "Nothing 'Bout Me" (it´s Colaiuta drumming I believe), and changed hands between the highhat/snare. It´s such a nice groove in the perfect tempo. Playing a straight beat with the left was good practice and playing ghost notes with the right was fun too.
    Otherwise I was always jealous of the few "left hand drummers" I met and saw playing. A normal drumset setup is perfect for them, while we "right hands" have to cross our arms and do all the crazy shit.

    Mate, thank you for such clear and succinct lessons. I really appreciate your manner, positivity and encouragement. As a drummer who has recently joined a band after decades of having put his sticks away, I have benefited greatly by your videos. Are you in a band currently? You are a highly gifted percussionist. Love the way you make your way around your beautiful sounding kit. May I ask what brand your kit is? Thank you again. Peter from Australia.

    • @ThatSwedishDrummer

      Thanks for the kind words!!
      I play in several bands actually, but I've got a new album coming up with an artist called Louise Lemón (check us out on Spotify!)
      And this is a Pearl Reference Series kit :)
      Cheers, mate!!

  • @marco9und60
    @marco9und60 6 місяців тому +4

    Thanks CJ, good lesson. A question about groove #2, the accents on beats 2 and 4 are just on the snare or also on the hihat?

    • @ThatSwedishDrummer
      @ThatSwedishDrummer  6 місяців тому +3

      The snare.
      You can accent the hi-hat also, but it won't sound super obvious anyway. Accents in a groove mainly refer to the snare drum :)

  • @ivanlorenzo989

      It's a Benny Greb signature brass snare (by Sonor)

    Hi CJ. Useful as usual, but one of the score (Skärmavbild 2023-11-14 kl. 11.11.27.png) does not seem to relate to the cureent lesson. Could you check this ? Thank's and keep on

    • @ThatSwedishDrummer

      Oh darn, you’re right! Haha I’m gonna swap that out. (That’s from an upcoming lesson actually! 🤣)

    Hello CJ, why did you take off , the 8’´ Tom?

    • @ThatSwedishDrummer
      @ThatSwedishDrummer  6 місяців тому

      At the moment I'm not in need for it on my kit (+ that I've let my gf borrow the mic I use for that tom for her studio!)
      It might come back soon, though! Ya' never know ;)

    • @ThatSwedishDrummer
      @ThatSwedishDrummer  5 місяців тому

      Just curious; How come you play a right-handed kit if you're left handed? :)
