@@alandanielw I think most new drummers should start out with a minimalist kit.. Kick snare hh/ toms at that point serve as a distraction something else to hit randomly remove the crash ride toms learn pocket until you can pickpocket then add in the next piece
@@IrishStoner yeah but most kids starting out don't really wanna do that. They wanna have fun and learn their favourite songs. I remember when I got my first real drum kit I was super into metal and it came with a bunch of cymbals and a double kick pedal. One of the happiest nights of my life when I finally got it all set up.
Broo I love these IDEAS in here. Dgaf if it's not all fleshed out and perfeclty metronomic, this kinda relatable and loose sounding :) keep growing and showing up to work on it🙏
That'd be my guess. It isn't uncommon to switch grip based on the instrument placement. When I'm playing Timpani I'm using French, but snare I'll usually use American.
It's more about the position of my arm in relation to the surface, or the sound produced. Right hand would be french on floor tom to keep my arm relaxed and move fast. But on snare the right hand would be more American. I try to practice through different grips and techniques - wrist,finger,open/close, Moeller,rebound (as taught by Henrique De Almeida). Thankyou very much for the comment!
Love when these vid,s pop up. Always learn something. Just started playing again about 3 years ago. Never learned how to read notes or any of the rudiments. Didn't know there was a German or a French grip. Only one I was familiar with was match grip. From watching a Buddy Rich video where he talked about the different grips. Anyway, glad I checked it out.
@@drummerneedsaband3311 French grip and German grip (and American grip) are just ways to angle your hand when playing. These can still apply when you are playing traditional (unmatched) grip. It is a really good thing to get used to transitioning between, just based on whatever is most comfortable.
@@jackehlers2072 Thanks for the info. I have tried traditional left hand. I took lessons at school 4th thru 6th grade.(free to any student late 60's). It's a good method but I don't have time to develop it now. Can't get the power out of it. But never had more fun than I'm having now.😁 Rock'til ya'drop... That's my new motto.
Hey brother, randy here. I'd love you to do a throw back to knife party by deftones. And also talk to Ben and rekindle wake the lion. Maybe you guys can call the new band, Wake the children! Hah
Nice, I love hearing what people can do with the kick, snare and hat setup
Thankyou so much!
To this day , the regular acrolite (black galaxy) is at the top of my list!
Me too! I’m a sucker for drummers who only play with those three parts.
All musicians know we are a work in progress, always learning something and always eager to learn.
Well said, the journey IS the destination.

Man now that's a funky, soulfull souding snare. I'm definitely going to have to get one someday for anyone of that genre who walks in the studio
Nice Sir and nice sounding kit. Ludwig always makes the best sounding snare drums. Even their cheaper snare drums sound good. Thanks for sharing.

Nice grooves. Interested in why you use two different grips on the sticks, one German and the other French. Just preference?

Different, but cool!
A guitar player uses two hands while a drummer uses all 4 hands and legs.
