As a drummer for 25+ years, all i can say is "This is so awesome!" and i thank you so much for this! It's like finding a whole new and different world! I get to learn not only to play fast but also unawarely learn to better ghost notes and accents, plus to more beautiful triplet usage and orchestration. You did a very very good job and i appreciate you so much for doing this video. I thank God for He brought my youtube browsing to you. God bless you brother. 😊
I know right!! I'm not a big youtube user but I came across this and goddamn... I can already feel myself getting better after the first hour. I can't wait to see what I sound like in a week's time!!
Glad I found this channel mate, you don't present this stuff as though you're superior, its obvious that you want to help out as many drummers as you can. This is the first vid I've seen of yours but I REEEALLY appreciate you adding a neurological perspective; that alone puts this video above anything else I've seen on youtube re- drumming. Building neural pathways and forming habits/routines is such an important thing for all of us, I love the way you've applied that concept here. Killer job mate!!
The biggest lesson I’ve learned since I started drumming was that it’s actually harder to play slow than it is fast. As soon as I realised this I couldn’t believe how much progress I made and how much confidence I gained in playing fast. Thank you for the tips!
This is awesome! Definitely needed this video because I get into a rut and unsure what o do. I will definitely be trying this out thank you for sharing 👍👍🥁🥁
For me the double stroke roll opened up so many other rudiments after learning the double stroke I could then play the 5 -6 -7 stroke roll. the single stroke roll is the toughest tho
Great tutorial thanks! Is day 7 supposed to be RRL RLL RRL RLL? It's written RRL RRL RRL RRL at 6:54. Where you put the accents are really important too.
Dimitri, I think there is an error on DAY 7 you have A & B listed as RRL .... it should alternate.... if I'm understanding the method correctly... check the 6:54 mark....
Given that the number 3 is the number of Creation (everything that makes the "Universe" is 3. Time=Past.Present.Future. The Elements= Solid. Liquid. Gas. etc.) so this 3 note approach with the Triad Matrix is a great idea as it deals with the core of drumming. What works, and what sounds good. I personally just love Triplets. They always sound just "perfect" to me. And there is a reason for that. They are perfect. lol. Cool idea, and glad to see someone is thinking outside the box to enable them to play inside the box, or "pocket". Well done. Thanks!
Great lesson! Some of the 27 combinations allow you to play the accent in different places. For example, if you take LRL, RLR, LRK, LKR, etc., you can get 2-3 options for where to place the accent, depending on the combination. It turns out that accents provide even more scope for training? Where is the best place to start? From the presence of accents, or from playing without accents? Thank you!
Every single combination technically has 8 combinations for accents and non-accents. start with even dynamics, and then just experiment with the accent combinations that make sense to you! the possibilities are overwhelming if you try to do them all, so it’s best not to think about that too much and just start somewhere :)
Thanks.... I'm trying this right now . Great idea...why havent I known about this? Thanks for this great tip. Definitely major improvement. --What's is in the teaching video ?
Oh that’s a great combo! I have a good number of Gretsch snares I love but this one is the Solid Aluminum 14x5 with the microsensitive throw off and internal tone control added. It’s insane!
As a guitarist who also plays drums I can definitely say with experience and practice, atleast on guitar, your brains does speed up and fast becomes smooth. Though Ive played drums for double the time I consider myself a musician whos mainly a guitarist as thats what I was born to play, but for me the drums have always just been amazing fun and my drumming really helped me when I eventually learned guitar and gave me a natural percussive type playing style, sort of ala adam jones if you will.
That’s badass! Drumming has informed my guitar playing a ton as well. I used to do a ton of the Hedges style tapping and things… maybe I need to get back into it!
The technique to indentfy and group patterns allows to memorize and play crazy long phrases. as in yiur case each group of certain A and B triads can be again identified as d then another as f etc.;;; a endless construction i m suing for years especially in polyrhythmic circles
Great video, thank you! I have a bit weird question, but its something thats really bothering me. What use does it have to practise for exaplne the pattern A, with the accented note played without rimshot, when in real application, the rimshot is used most of the time. Hand mechanics of playing a rimshot are very different to playing just a regular accent. Wouldnt it be better to simply always practise accented snare drum notes with rimshots? Which means always behind a drumset, not using pad. (Im just frustrated to work on something on a pad, and then not being able to do it on a snare drum, couse rinshots completely change, the behavior of the stick, and also the movement of hands)
It’s not a weird question, it’s a good question! My answer is simply that you should practice both ways. I’d recommend practicing with the accent first, without the rimshot. But this is great to practice even without sticks! Just tap your hands, you are engraining new patterns into your muscle memory (that’s what this lesson is really about) and it’s actually about your brain more than the drums or sticks :)
Hey Dimitri, Gretsch delivers the Solid Aluminium snare with a 42-spiral strainer and plastic strap...did you leave both as they are or replace them? Great sound!
I’m using the stock strainer and strap! Only thing I changed about this was I ordered it with the micro sensitive throw off and internal tone control. 14x5!
What an effort to put together such a high-quality teaching video. From a neurological perspective, this is even the most efficient method to achieve this end result.
Thank you!! You’ve touched on exactly the reason I teach this way and how my full curriculum is designed… the drums aren’t the instrument to master, our brains are!
Great question. Both will work well. Splitting it up could potentially work even better. Do several 15 or 20 minute chunks. You’ll notice each time you take a break and come back to it, you’ll feel like you’re a little bit better than when you paused.
Cool concept. But this applies mainly to triplet based groupings like 8th or 16th note triplets. You'd be hard pressed to apply this to 16th notes but it is possible.
yes you might have noticed in other comments this was a typo that slipped past us! A and B are supposed to be exactly what I say earlier in the video, always!
Hey brother - thanks for the video! Two quick questions - 1) at faster speeds are you switching to a drop-catch/push-pull/wrist-fingers technique for the doubles? 2) On those first couple of days, are you doing the exercise at the same slow speed the whole time or varying the tempos? Thanks again!
good questions! 1) I use my open-close technique for both slow and fast speeds! If you don't practice it slow, it won't be correct fast! We actually covered this in a zoom workshop last night :) I may have omitted demonstrating this technique slow in this video - just to avoid complicating the subject and turning it into a longer technique lesson. I go more in depth in many videos! 2) absolutely keep it at a slow speed for a few days. It will naturally sink into your muscle memory and playing faster a few days in will feel natural. If you play too fast too soon, you'll notice it getting sloppy and it's VERY difficult to fix bad habits built this way!
Such a great lesson. Great playing and you've got that Gretsch sounding sick as well. Is that the USA Solid Aluminum 14x5? Or the 14x6.5? Sounds amazing. Keep these lessons coming.
for the 1-hour section, are we allowed to take a minute or two break after every ten minutes? and are we supposed to do the exercise in the same tempo for the entirety of the practice or are we supposed to increase it?
From what I can see, it’s the building blocks of a six stoke roll. If you put A and B together then yes it’s a six stoke roll, but by learning each part separately you can play different combinations to place accents on different beats
@@DimitriFantini Great stuff I did watch the entire vid please no condemnation intended on my part it's more like the " one of these things is just like the other " light went off in my brain so I commented 🍻
@@gzig61 I love a good lightbulb moment. Yes that specific part is the same as a six stroke roll (I prefer the term inverted paradiddle-diddle)... but the point is that you can mix and match faster, and use these small chunks as muscle memory to play faster on autopilot!
Good catch!!! It’s supposed to be RLL RRL I watch these episodes 1000 times before release but sometimes my editing team and I miss something. Thanks for pointing it out!
Just checked for you and it’s sixteenth note triplets at 150-160 bpm. But I recommend you keep them very slow for a long time, that’s how you get it fast!!!!
@alexfr811 it will be possible if you take this lesson to heart and get your technique correct at very slow tempos and stay there for longer than you think you should! You can do it!
Hello Dimitri - thx for the information about the snare. Is it a new gretsch model or a vintage snare drum? Just wondering because of the internal tone control and the throw off...
Yep this is a current model! You have to custom order to get those specs. You can get that with any drum they make (I got the internal tone controls on every tom and bass drum)
It's the six stroke roll with variations and any drummer playing at a professional level knows this rudiment and uses extensively with all the substitutions and variations.
Certainly not!! I personally tend to lead these patterns with my left or flip it in the middle (with some singles or some kicks), but am teaching it right lead for the masses lol. I’m a righty myself, but with these stickings I gravitate towards left lead.
Hi Dimitri, Thanks for this awesome Video! Just for my understanding. The Result of Day Seven is (just) a Six Stroke Roll (2 Times). Is this correct? Regards
Correct but the principle that gets you there is the important part! Plus the rest of the drum fill and how you can mix and match the different cells :)
Fantastic video, thank you! Early days for me and drumming but this is something I'll work on. Thanks for putting such an informative and entertaining video together, and I love the rally comparisons! :-)
If I were you, I'd either NOT answer to dolts whom complain about the video not getting to the point, taking too long or whatever about the analogies, only because they can say what they want and it is of no consequence, whatsoever...or tell them to watch other videos - they HAVE the time...& to criticize. Pressing the Space Bar X2s the video. No need to answer about all THAT. My question was GONNA BE, nicely ('Why is it that at the end of an A or B, there seems to be 2 extra hits that are unneeded, or out of place? 6:32 to 6:41 played on .25 X is a way to see my point in question...what is the reason, if any?')...My OWN example of why one needs to take the time to absorb the lesson, not wolf it down. I see now that the pattern is not how I've been absorbing it otherwise, lol. This is quite coincidental to my hand-drumming at the 'puter. 🤣Oh, I have a 'set and I'll do this both the way it is depicted and the way I thought it was to be. Wow! Thanks for your efforts to instruct. 🤩 🤗😏
The one thing not mentioned here is the sleep you get in between each day you practice. At night is when your brain processes to memory and the next morning you wake up able to play it better than you were playing the night before
Exactly this, I’ve mentioned it once or twice here in the comments. That’s why it’s so important to carefully get technique and timing and patterns right, at very slow speeds, from the start!
Are you bouncing the RR LL or are you push pull controlling each double?
open-close technique all the way 👊

aw man I looked over this video 1000 times! There's always one bit that'll slip past ya haha
@@DimitriFantini it's easy to see how it could happen. I typed it wrong three times when I was writing the comment!
Ha!!!
The one thing not mentioned here is the sleep you get in between each day you practice. At night is when your brain processes to memory and the next morning you wake up able to play it better than you were playing the night before
Exactly this, I’ve mentioned it once or twice here in the comments. That’s why it’s so important to carefully get technique and timing and patterns right, at very slow speeds, from the start!
That’s where I went wrong, I stayed up for a whole week without going to sleep. Dohhhh.
lol!!
My A....im lacking it 😒 😅 its always the non dominant hand it seems that needs the most attention.
every drummer needs to watch this
You can play faster by changing just one thing; the speed at which you play.

If you want to eventually be able to play the kind of stuff Keith Carlock does, then this is the video for you!
funnily enough I did a Keith Carlock breakdown not long ago! Maybe you saw it :)
Actually I didn't see it, but now that you mention it.... lol.
I hear a lot of Mitch Mitchell in this pattern.
oh good ear and connection!
Muchas gracias Maestro.
You are welcome! ♥️
