    I love when drummers say it's a simple fill or a simple beat. It is always simple for trained drummers.

      It takes practice. If you put in time to practice, no matter what you are: Trained or self-taught, you will get there.

      glad he has a drum transcript to follow ( it's worth it to know how to read music ) only need to learn note time values not the 12 pitches like ABCDEFG etc.
      Why ? Because these online great drummers go to fast . if they would slow down when visually explaining, it would help. a slow motion mode on there cameras would help and a camera on his Bass drum peddle should be used . most all of these online UA-cam free drum tutorial teachers hopefully are aware of this criticism .
      it certainly is best to take lessons face to face with a local drum teacher. however i enjoyed this video and will nail his lesson only by practice, practice, practice .....😊👍

    I must confess I love the way you teach and the way you think about learning. To learn ideas or ingredients (as you do) is different from being able to play fixed fills or grooves, because it makes easier for you to add ideas and techniques to your style. We drummers know that there is a difference between being able to play something and playing that naturally and frequently, as a part of your style. It is a valuable and rich approach to learn music. Thanks and greetings from Brazil!

    A great example of why it's important to master the snare drum and its rudiments. It becomes very easy to convert those skills to the kit later on. Single stroke players struggle with these patterns. Nicely demonstrated! A jazz lick against a rock pattern. Cheers!

  • @tillmannschurfeld6702
    @tillmannschurfeld6702 4 роки тому +1

    the amount of potential creativity behind this lick is huge. i like the part where you say, that it's perfect to get you "into some triplet vocabulary" - the idea of introducing new "language" in a solo or wherever else is something super important, instead of jumping right into. Don't get me wrong - that can be interesting as well, but i feel, that the power of introducing and preparing something new is a MAJOR musical advantage and makes people follow your path of thought - which is beautiful, i guess. thanks mike, as always!!

    @glennperea2604 4 роки тому +1

    Hi Mike, Great Fill! It really sounds neat and is actually fun to play! One little thing I added that also sounds cool is to add a pickup note on the snare on the "ah" of 4 (coming out of the beat) before the fill. The sound of that pickup note sort of mimicks the second stroke of the left hand ghost notes that occur in the second diddle during the fill.
    Thanks for the great lesson and keep up 'em comin'!
