    Kicking off Drum Month in style! 🥁
    To celebrate Drum Month, we're hosting special Livestreams every Thursday for the month of May. This week Jared, Brandon & Dave will be joined by an expert guest on the topic of double bass drumming: Julia Geaman. You'll learn the history of the double bass, see some great drumming, and learn a few tricks that will make your double bass playing better!
    As double bass playing becomes more common among all genres of music (not just metal), we figured this lesson would be useful for drummers looking to improve their coordination, control, and overall freedom with their sacred pedals.
    Plus, we'll be giving away a Yamaha DFP-9C and a Drumeo QuietKick (double pedal version) during the show. Come hang out for a chance to win!

    I really love her approach to teaching them what they want to learn and then what they need to learn along the way. I went about it this way being in concert band and later marching band but also being a "never used the hi hat pedal" drummer. Of course marching helped my left hand match my right for blast beats and probably faster now but applying the rudiments for practicing double bass was a game changer. Also watching your videos helped too.

    It’s really amazing that RAYMOND HERRERA who founded FearFactory is never mentioned, with him mixing his bass drums electronically so they would be up front and obviously his double bass following the rhythms of the guitar, or vice versa , this dude really was responsible for the sound of double bass today 🤔When you heard HERRERA you knew it was him, Hoglan IMO has always been the best speed metal drummer, He’s been doing his thing since the 80’s and doesn’t cheat, just like those legendary Jazz players who really play 😎what a concept

      Because he is late they had dudes already doing double bass stuff back in the 70’s then you can go to jazz drummers like Rufus”speedy” Jones who where very masterful with the double bass and stick it up front in their solo’s and doing stuff like hand matching. It’s hard to ever credit one person because he as Drummer has influence

    Ok, so in my opinion, the best combination of: speed, dexterity, and independence makes the most well rounded double bass.
    With that being said, there was no mention of Thomas Lang (whom you’ve had on Drumeo) the king of double bass trifecta.

    My double-set-up is a $8 broken pair I found at a fleamarket that I built my own direct-drive to. I don't know what brand they are, but they have an engraved piano and an "i" on them 😄

    I also started drumming when I heard a Gene Hoglan song, and got into it more for double kick than the drums themselves. I heard Strapping Young Lad's City album and just thought "what is that??????!!!!!!!!"
    Rudiments on your feet can be great, and personally I feel we should aim for all four limbs with equal ability. Danny Carey has some great stuff for feet + rudiments.

    On twin kicks, we went with DW9000s, one on each, but they lacked a single shell option (despite advertising) plus don’t do direct drive, so went with Axis A-Longboards and a conversion kit for a single drum. They are great!

    The Pearl demon chain/drive is excellent
    That's when I realized my feet were better than the pedal I had, the demon chain brought out finesse that I have, it's so smooth.
    The springs are a little too taut for me though, I had to use the old power shifter springs to get the right low tension.

    Been playing dbl bass for 10 yrs. The djent grooves rather than metal speed are what turned me on to really learning it. Lamb of God, After the Burial, AAL, Periphery etc. One thing that vastly helped my independence and speed was jumping rope. Started in 2017 3x a week at the gym and went from 160bpm to just under 200 in a year. Learning all of Dance Gavin Dance now.

    I play a mapex Falcon double pedal setup. But mostly because I'm a mapex fanboy. I don't think it's necessarily the best pedal out there. I don't do any metal double bass stuff. I just use them for trash can endings and the occassional gallop. I have an entry level Yamaha strap drive pedal that I got with an electronic kit, and that thing slays. It's so fast and it barely needs any pressure.

    The only Yamaha pedal I've ever tried was the Flying Dragon with direct drive. I hated it, but I'm not a direct drive guy, and I think the spring was a bit too tight for me. I use an ancient DW 5002 double pedal because I can't afford the Darwin FTW.
