@@Kate_rynDraws Lol same I have been playing the Ukulele for 2 months or smtg and my dumbass thought chucking is just muting💀 and I got a hang of using it in strumming specially riptide but now that I learned to actually chuck I can't play the Riptide 😭😭
learning more about drums has really helped my out in my playing of guitar actually, it’s really interesting how all these elements of music fit together
@@zackglickert4495 That's interesting. Because I too wish to learn percussion. And am a near beginner in guitar. Only, I'm quite weary about the loud noise drums make. It's my ear drums that don't like it! But, I love percussion! So, it's quite a dilemma! Even with headphones... or ear plugs!
@@cutechiangels they have electric drums that you can set to the volume you like and can even put on headphones so you’re not bothering other people! i wish i had a set, but i don’t have the money nor the room for one
@@JohannesHeldAs for why is there an E7, well I’d have to get into a bit of music theory.. tl:dr it sounds better If you wanna read: The chord progression itself is actually very common in flamenco music called the Andalusian Cadence, a i-VII-VI-V progression. Which in the key of Am: i, the chord that is minor of the first note in the key, which would be A minor VII, the chord that is major of the seventh note in the key, which would be G major VI, the chord that is major of the sixth note in the key, F major V, the chord that is major of the fifth note in the key, E major The lower or uppercase of the roman numeral determines if it’s major or minor. Now for the usage of E7 instead of a normal E, the use of seventh chords (technically these are dominant seventh chords, which are done by adding the minor seventh to a major chord) are usually used to induce tension as the chord approaches the root (called the tonic), to make the resolution of the progression more satisfying, as after the E7 we would loop back to Am which is the root of the key. The E7 adds tension before returning and resolving at the Am. You can see it for yourself too, play an E instead of the E7, I personally like the E7 for the darker tone it gives which sorta alludes to the minor key and the minor root. Apologies for the long comment, left a tl:dr above…. Hope you have a nice day!
I'm struggling with just down, now your putting up and a chuk in as well... But I have been playing less than a day.. Finding your videos very helpful..
Im teaching myself the Rumba, and Flamenco Spanish sound . I hate to be the guy that plays Hotel California and the Band won't play. Its old from thousands of people should try more to be original. Im in the Philippines and when i play just 3 chords it catches an ear or 2 .Im learning your great techniques and with practice I'll be ready for next Summers parties along the beaches and homes in Eastern Visayas.
that'll come eventually! i literally cried for weeks always messing up the strumming pattern when i sing. just keep doing the strumming pattern, it's all about muscle memory!
The way my tutor taught me was that a “zing” was a downstroke and a “ga” was an up stroke and a “zick” was the palm mute or a chick as you said so *zing ga zing ga zick ga zing ga was your strum pattern*
i usually experiment on strumming patterns. and i found it very interesting that the same chord progression sounds very different depending on how you strum.
Thank you for giving me a new strumming pattern out of the million i have. The best one i have is thumb dowd on g , du du d xu g with thumb that i hop to think i made it up but GOD it sounds amazing
You are absolutely right! ❤️We shouldn't always use this strum just like we shouldn't always use ONE strum. We should always add expression, variation and dynamics to our song. With that said, if you did want to try this strumming pattern on I'm Yours by Jason Mraz, you could slow it down and play it 2x for each chord. The percussive element of the strum adds a nice element to it, lol :)
Variation I have been playing for a while to give me that “Latin” rhythm: Down, Down, Up, Slap, Up, Down, Up. Works great for Hotel California and the like 👍
Ukelele players learning there’s more than the riptide strumming patern
I’m proud to say that I’ve been playing ukulele for six months now and I *technically* don’t know how to play Riptide. XD
I've been playing uke for four years I didn't even know X existed
@@Kate_rynDraws lol i've played for a week or 2 and got the hang of it
@@Kate_rynDraws Lol same I have been playing the Ukulele for 2 months or smtg and my dumbass thought chucking is just muting💀 and I got a hang of using it in strumming specially riptide but now that I learned to actually chuck I can't play the Riptide 😭😭
It's actually DD UDU for riptide
You're thinking of the strumming patterns for songs like "Somewhere over the rainbow"
The only strumming pattern I learnt ⬇️⬇️⬆️ ⬆️⬇️⬆️ 💀
Here, try this one, ⬇️ ⬆️⬆️⬇️⬆️ you can use this in riptide by vance joy, with the chords Am, G, Cm, and also the strum you use! Hope this helps!
@@tomgray6529 Thanks! But can I use C instead of Cm?
crazy
Me too 👽💙I have been learning this instrument for a month
Down down up up down up 😂
I love it! Very flamenco-ish!❤
also thanks to the andalusian cadence
@@matvocaat viva andalusia
The “Chuck” falls where the snare drum hit would be if a drummer was playing with you. That’s what I hear there. Cool
Yes! That’s correct 😃
Whenever I play with a drummer I don’t do a chuck, I just mute

That's why it works sped up bc then the strums would be semi quatavers meaning the chuck is on the beats 2 and 4.
Can we talk about this beautiful chord progression as well?!
😃😃
no.
its nothing too special lol
Yes, please! In which key is it? Why is there an E7?

Ukulele players when they learn they can play in half-time

I’m legit just bought a ukelele it comes this Friday I’m looking forward to learning to play it now that I know piano
@@HiPerfectSoul yousician app
@@KyleKovitchyou have to pay after a few lessons so I just wasted my time
@@DAISYYPAISYofc, but it’s cheap as hell though
It depends on what song be played . As a guitarist, I just simply use strumming pattern that suits the song
No shit bro
@@anula7694 what shit
As a guitarist ... LMFAO.
Is it just me or the sped up version sounds like gerudo valley?
I live with my ukulele in hand it goes everywhere with me even work, kayaking camping. ❤ all of your videos.
I'm struggling with just down, now your putting up and a chuk in as well... But I have been playing less than a day.. Finding your videos very helpful..
If you haven't found it yet, try her 30 day uke challenge. ua-cam.com/play/PLJFa3EaocfZkPvRqVaUf6pFuPxiLo0uWZ.html
This sounds cool! I need to learn how to chuck though😂 Merry Christmas everybody! ❤
Have you learn how to chuck? 😅
No
Ho you need to do that
lay your whole left hand over all the strings but dont press down, then strum
@@Narube98 use your palm to mute the strings as you hit them :)
It resembles Gratitude by Amin Toofani which is originally played on guitar (nylon strings)....
Thanks! The chucking is quite tricky though! Maybe you can show us more precisely how to chuck? Thx. 👍🙂
Same! How do you Chuck?
Takes 3 minutes to learn then it’s as easy as strumming
she has a video for it too
that chord progression is FIREEE 🔥
i shall now learn and use this. thank yoouuuuu
The stumming is used in gratitude and its flamenco
The apology videos: WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN
Bernadette is a great teacher. I just started learning to play ukulele at 64 years old from her . I think she is great
Here in NZ, that pattern is known as the 'Māori Strum' 😊
That’s soo cool 🎉Thank You Bernadette love the work you’re doing and especially your amazing ukulele you have there, God’s Blessings to you🙏
Using the index finger for Am makes the change to G easier. And it's also easier to go from E7 back to Am.
The X is fantastic.
Put it in different places of the beat, and you can get some awesome sounds.
I love the X!
Simplesmente amei essa batida!
Tem uma pegada flamenca deliciosa!
Thank you so much for your support! You are beyond lovely.
Very cool! We learned strumming patterns like these in mariachi guitar class when I was in high school. Thanks for sharing 💜
I don't even know what a chuck is 😂
It's the part of a drill you insert the bit into, or a nickname for Charles
i have a friend name chuck
@@blanethegoat nice
A Chuck is a form of Norris, notable for being able to do all of the push-ups.
Bruhh 😂
Very cool, this a rumba flamenca strum and Phrygian chord progression used a lot in flamenco. :)
I’ve never done either partern I’ve always done multiple pattens for each song but it’s a nice one👍
i think du xu du du is more fun but i think the pacing is just better with the chunk-y bit on 2 and not 3
still silly either way
Im teaching myself the Rumba, and Flamenco Spanish sound .
I hate to be the guy that plays Hotel California and the Band won't play. Its old from thousands of people should try more to be original.

Tried this one out and its life changing :D thx it sound so cool too
also the first one you did was harder to do imo that your version
Can you make a song that goes along with this amazing chucking
Wow! Sounds like Entre dos aguas by Paco de Lucia. Have a listen to that one; it's really beautiful!
Down down up up down up is also a good one
I had to watch this about 9 times before I even noticed the guitar thingy.
It’s not a guitar 😑
I like this! Does sound great at speed
Heck Yeah 👍. I also had fun reading the comments. 🌺
Hahahah ❤️
@@BernadetteTeachesMusic A Rumba and a Giggle 🤭 = Good Times. 🌺
How about 8 down strokes in a row per chord and then down tuning and plugging into an amp?
Love it! Sounds latin. Can you teach us a song that works with this pattern?
wow! if you see this, know u are strong and loved! Jesus loves u no matter what ur past looks like. Jesus loves u and I do too. Have a great day :))
Erm, isn't that el manaña from Gorillaz?
I got my up chuck down! Thanx!!!
🎉🎉🎉😅
you inspire always
thanks
Dude I think this girls wayyy hot bro ♥️
Wait a moment, was that gerudo valley....
me constantly using dddd because I can't focus on singing and strumming at the same time 😭😭
SAME AHAHAHAHA
that'll come eventually! i literally cried for weeks always messing up the strumming pattern when i sing. just keep doing the strumming pattern, it's all about muscle memory!
@@eichtilol same!! xdxd
I think it’s great! I also realize that this would be how to strum Gerudo Valley from Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time!
What kind of strumming pattern you say?
Thats literally just a flamenco strumming pattern.
The only strumming pattern I learnt : ⬇️ ⬇️ 😭😭😭
Try doing that with "A , G , F , E minor" it sounds amazing
I tried it and it bad srry
thanks for the tip! 🙏
I love it! I’ll have to try that one!
Why do I hear the bloons theme LMAO
POV: you’ve been playing ukulele for 2 years and you still don’t know how to chuck
Just palm mute instead
Can u teach me i can't do the chac up pls teach
I feel like it would sound great for playing Hotel California
What is the brand of the ukulele you are using?
You're asking us to up-chuck....lol
Sounds like 'Entre dos aguas' by Paco de Lucia
How do I do an x?
Nice!but i dont know how to chuck😭😭😭😭bigenner here!
How do you chuck up on the ukelele
I hate when ukulele players do this. Add variety and use whatever fits
Wait what's that songs name? Sounds amazing tbh but im starter in ukulele.
Yo this is fire thanks homegirl
Every time I see a ukulele i think of Vance Joy
I still need to learn the Chucking😹 Also Merry Christmas Everybody!!!🎄
*plays gerudo valley
The way my tutor taught me was that a “zing” was a downstroke and a “ga” was an up stroke and a “zick” was the palm mute or a chick as you said so *zing ga zing ga zick ga zing ga was your strum pattern*
This helped a lot! Thank you!
@@layla.williams__ it’s algood
its gratitude's strumming
Are you playing G & E7… What are those other chords ? Thanks.
this is like spanish beats
i usually experiment on strumming patterns. and i found it very interesting that the same chord progression sounds very different depending on how you strum.
You're always a delight
ama try this on guitar
ill edit this with results in ten
edit: it sounded really cool!!!
Very cool! Thanks! :)
How did you know i always default to that pattern😂
Who searched for ukulele apology video?
Toxic gossip trayayayain
Same pattern as rumba on guitar
congrats you discovered the rumba strumming pattern but for ukulele
I don't know what chuck up means. I'm very new.
I love you, definitely.
Specially when you snap your tongue after "Fun pattern" 😄

From where should i buy this uke..
Is she subliminally giving her fella some constructive feedback?
Ok cool but how do I slap it and make that sound? The x sound
I think you don't have to stop playing a pattern which works for different things than another one, like this one.
Chord progression, please: Am, F, G, E?
Thank you for giving me a new strumming pattern out of the million i have. The best one i have is thumb dowd on g , du du d xu g with thumb that i hop to think i made it up but GOD it sounds amazing
Omg I love that new pattern and that Uke ❣️ is that a custom?
How do I get the chuck sound😭?
You can't always use that pattern. It changes according to the song. For example : try playing that pattern in the song I'm Yours by Jason Mraz.
You are absolutely right! ❤️We shouldn't always use this strum just like we shouldn't always use ONE strum. We should always add expression, variation and dynamics to our song. With that said, if you did want to try this strumming pattern on I'm Yours by Jason Mraz, you could slow it down and play it 2x for each chord. The percussive element of the strum adds a nice element to it, lol :)
lol maybe i should try learning something other than fingerstyle
Am I the only one that when I strum the ukulele and hold the chords some of them sound a bit weird and not as satisfying can someone plz help meee😭😂
Sorry, what do you mean "instead of only"?
Y'all ukulele players not know how to change your strumming patterns???
Sounds like a Venezuelan CUATRO guitar! MAXR
Variation I have been playing for a while to give me that “Latin” rhythm: Down, Down, Up, Slap, Up, Down, Up.
Works great for Hotel California and the like 👍
lord im not even focus on the ukus im focusing on you lord have mercy…😘😘😘goddd damm lust 🥰🥰🥰
How much is the guitar
