Thank you very much for sharing this explanation. It has made someone like me who in these two years that I have been playing had never tried anything with patterns outside of 4/4 to understand the mechanism of them, even if it is only for this song 😅
thats awesome, this song has always confused me when i heard it, probs not gonna learn it now but i least i know youve got a great video breaking it down
Just use a metronome to keep the quarter notes for you and focus just on the pattern. If it might help you write down on which stroke the quarter notes are going to be, then work on speed
quick note: There's simultanously a pattern of 4/4 on the background, which makes the whole thing actually 45/4. That's the actual time signature of it.

Every video you share is truly inspiring. Chops are unreal. Tutorial guru. Love from Scotland ❤️👍
❤️❤️ awww thank you 🙏
Matter fact Mario play it alternating the feet pattern just as you did, he wrote that as an exercise to build strength on his weak foot.
Wow! Magnificent! Thank you, Jay!

Thank you so much for this demonstration!
I just learnt that I will never be able to play this intro - let alone song.
Love Gojira though!
Ha… of course you can. Just remember, whether you think you can or you can’t… you’re right! 😉
@@Thedrummersalmanac Words to live by! I am happy I can count to 4.
Well if it helps I've almost learned how to do the intro without counting...because I don't know how to count while drumming

I can play just the pattern but then once the constant quarter note comes in it messes me up for some reason
Well it is a polyrhythm, so that doesn't help, but aside from that the pattern changes substantially once the ¼ note comes in

Ur a legend mate

Loving the snare 🤘. Tasty 😋

Time signatures are indeed subjective... so you can hear it in 45 if you'd like.
Too much stuff at the beginning. Get to it.
If your attention span does not last longer than 20 seconds, I’m afraid you might not get too far, my friend. 😉

Dude, this is free content. And he got to it, considering how complicated that track is. Quit whining.
