    Paradiddle fills....rudiments...We all want to learn how to express ourselves on the drums better. But what if I told you coming up with killer drum licks, drum fills, and drum beats wasn't rocket science? What if I told you there was a system for coming up with drum fills? In this lesson, I teach you a short system that will help you take any drum rudiment, drum sticking, or drum idea and turn it in to the perfect drum fill.

    Quite late to the party. But I wanted to get this out: this is one of my favorite drum-tube channels. And the fact that this is a single-man act for the drumming just speaks volumes for what Stephen's been doing for free for intermediate/beginner drummers is insane. Been a happy subscriber to the channel for 3 years and don't regret a single thing about it!(not to mention the killer lesson here!)

    20 minutes into practicing this and my brain is on fire from the ideas. I have songs that NEEDED this kind of fill and I just didn't have mental vocab for it (most of my fill ideas start with either Doubles, Triplets or Singles broken up into the "Zones"). Practicing in this way is helping me think more clinically and is translating to my ideas coming through cleaner in our band rehearsals. Stephen you are the MAN 🥁

    A video on early Electric Wizard (specifically the albums Dopethrone and Come, my Fanatics) would make me ecstatic!
    There's an appalling lack of content about early EW's specific style, especially the drums, which really just entrance you any time you listen. Infectiously groovy, the epitome of heavy metal for me.

  • @oobernoober7617
    @oobernoober7617 4 роки тому +3

    This makes everthing understandable now. Take Toxicity from System of A Down the beginning has multiple complex drum fills, except they're just a basic maneuver around the toms but really sped up. With them all you have to do is find what hand placements work best for you. This works for basically any tricky fill

Secondly, I realize that this is instructional but, the cymbals are only being used as punctuation. I would have a zone that was just cymbals. (This is no disrespect, Stephen....you ROCK!)

    I do something similar w. less structure.
    I take a simple rudiment, la 3-stroke roll, and work all the possible permutations, sticking w. hands and feet, accents, drum kit surfaces and note values.
    It's slower & messier, but it engages my creativity and often leads to fun musical discoveries.
    And those lil' treats keep me practicing! =)

      For sure man...you still have a system, it's just not as structured. You achieve the same result without a step by step approach. And that's fine. Most have trouble with this though. If what you're doing is working for you, keep doing that for sure!

But I have to say, I love that you make it simple, you organize the lessons, you are straight to the point but without being judgemental towards people that don't know something. I play drums since 2008, it's 11 years, but I'm still kinda a caveman (kinda like Ulrich - I play for the music, not so much for the technique so to speak), but whenever I have time I try to pick a lick or something.

      You should def dive deep on the technique...but...I have found it's best to work technique beside other material. Just working technique can lead to a stale practice session. I suggest workin technique first in your practice time and then moving on to other groove/independence related material.

    • @graymccarthy685
      @graymccarthy685 4 роки тому +1

      For sure, what Stephen has presented is gold. Start at the level you are, maybe that’s 1/8th notes or 1/4 notes hand to hand. Following Stephen process here you’ll learn dynamics, phrasing (zones, getting comfortable moving round the kit) and embed that nice and early ready for more complex things later. You can get plenary of ‘perfect’ fills out of 1/8th notes. Maybe start with two beats rather than a whole bar.
      The later stages (grid) are higher level, so maybe nail the early steps into your playing and dip the toe as exploration in the later ones
