This is a technique that most beginner drummers overlook so I am glad you covered this, as someone who has been learning for a while now I decided to come back to this technique and perfect it as it is so important… thanks for the advice

[@danielstrong2653]

That's class. Best demo of this theory/practice I have seen. Very helpful thsnkyou.

Back when I was young and becoming a professional drummer there was no youtube or internet. I was playing my first live gigs in the disco era which was sort of a drag for me with everything four on the floor etc...and sixteenth notes on the hi hat. I always assumed the drummers on these recordings were using both hands on the hi hat and I would just do an extra note with my left hand on the hi-hat when my right hand would hit the snare. I still play like that to this day and despite the great job you and others do explaining that one handed technique my arm/hand cannot sustain it for that length of time; it's like torture. I wonder if it is just genetics.

[@rosswhite2865]

I’ve been playing for decades now, but have never spent time on hand technique. I’ve never been able to play fast hi-hat grooves, I think mainly because I grip my stick too tight and use my arms too much. I think I’ve improved naturally over the years, but I’d love to be able to play at this speed. Time is now my enemy 😂

Thanks. This is the most helpful video I’ve found yet on one handed 16ths.

[@tooclosetovomit6970]

I’ve been practicing along with Donna summer’s love to love you baby which has a nice accent like the way you play it. A lot of disco drummers almost seem to ghost the e and uh. I can do this technique in single or double strokes.

This is quality content. 🔟

Nice video. Working on this off and on the past year. Brutal. One of the harder things to master. If I can get it to 80 BPM with nice BD permutations I’ll be a happy man. Gettin there.

Great useful lesson!

[@tundradude4894]

Looks easy but definitely takes a lot of practice with it

Nice dude thankyou

[@peterpiece2102]

Great.

[@demecquenemmarc5353]

Hello I'm stuck at 180..I can play 30 secondes and that's it.. Have you a tip to improve that or it's just practice ?

[@dreamerrt216]

I'm still working on this. How long will it typically take to get up to 80 - 85 bpm smoothly for a 3 - 4 minute song?

[@danyukhin]

depends on how much you practice

[@jamiesdrumschool2437]

Hey there. It all depends on how much time you spend on this technique! Remember to perfect the technique at a very slow tempo start getting comfortable with smaller and shorter motions. I am actually working on a book at the moment with lots of exercises to help playing one hand sixteenth grooves msg me on my website and I can let you know when the book is finished! www.jamiesdrumschool.com
