Musicians & Non Musicians... Is There A Difference?
Просмотров 5414 дней назад
Well, hello folks. I'm going to do a little talking video today. This is something I've thought about a lot. If you're a musician watching this, I'm sure you will relate to a lot of it. What does music look like from the perspective of a non musician? I'd really love to get some engagement in the comments on this one. I'm curious to know your thoughts? What are your experiences? Do you have any...
"Seven Steps To Heaven" Play Along Jazz [Drum Cover 2]

Here's another take of "Seven Steps To Heaven" A less polite one. There's a fair bit of wash and some somewhat, inappropriate and loose vocabulary. Fun to mess around with! This track minus any instrument, plus many many more is available only at: www.playalongjazz.com Play Along Jazz is the brainchild of #Vinny Valentino. The track features: Bill Moring (Bass) Vinny Valentino (Guitar) Original...

Просмотров 10928 дней назад
From the Play Along Jazz catalogue @ www.playalongjazz.com. These play along tracks are available for all instruments. There's nothing to lean on. The tunes aren't recorded to a grid and there's a lot of interaction going on so you can't lean on anyone. It's no substitute for playing with people in real time, but it's a good way to keep your ears sharp if there aren't a lot of opportunities to ...
DRUMS & Vocals (ONLY)
Просмотров 64Месяц назад
Hi all. This is just drums and vocals. I start with drums and add the singing afterward. There's nothing special about the tuning. If I remove auxiliary drums, the kit is in a standard players tuning. The aux drums are no different. I love Terry Bozzio and years ago I had a play around with his concept. I decided that the drums aren't a piano. They're the drums. The excessive amount of drums an...
How To Play Faster Single Strokes
Просмотров 4012 месяца назад
How to play faster single strokes and increase overall hand speed is a very common question. There's lots of information on the internet, much of which is correct. Repetition is key. This is a tip you may not have heard before. It's very effective and doesn't require a huge time commitment. Grip the sticks as hard as you can! White knuckle it! work in reps of say 30 sec. Do a few reps and leave...
Drum Music
Просмотров 2112 месяца назад
I'm calling it "Drum Music" because I'm using the drums as the foundation for 'harmony...' This is free form improvisation. I started with the drums and then added guitar, approximating the pitch. It gives the illusion that the drums are completing the harmony. The guitar plays single notes and is all improvised. There are only three microphones which isn't optimal but it makes one be creative....
Drum Solo In Motion...
Просмотров 1052 месяца назад
Improvised drum solo "in motion" is an excerpt from the Drum Harmony ? Video. This is an abstract approach. It's not based on an Ostinato or Motif or rhythmic figure. The idea is that, the drums in this context are providing the harmony and melody. The idea of drums having their own harmony is an abstract idea I know. It's a way of looking at the drums. How hard you play a drum effects the 'not...
Drum Harmony ?
Просмотров 1992 месяца назад
Drum harmony is an abstract concept. The drums have their own unique harmony. It's a little orchestra. It seems tangible and esoteric at the same time. In the internet attention economy, many aspects of drumming are overlooked. In this video, I'm using three microphones, which is not optimal in translating what I'm hearing from the drums. Hopefully there is enough of an 'impression' left over.....
Promark Drum Sticks Review

Hi folks. This is my short review of Promark Drum Sticks. Let me know your thoughts and preferences? Which sticks do you like and why? The major brand companies all make excellent quality products these days and so it comes down to personal preference. For me, it's all about feel. Of course, sound is an important aspect too, depending on style and again, just personal choice. There are more dru...
Improvising Music To Improvised Drums
Просмотров 493 месяца назад
This is the process of improvising drums, first to a click, and then overdubbing the music. I don't recall what I was playing along to in my head at the time... It's a bit loose as the drums are fairly free form. Nothing is edited. I play the music in with the plastic midi keyboard using the free preset virtual instruments in Garage Band. It's improvisation. I don't make loops, I just play the ...
Improvising Music In My Head
Просмотров 934 месяца назад
Often I'll start writing music from the drums. I improvise music in my head and play along to it while improvising on the drums. This is what I'm doing here. The loops have been superimposed over my improvising to a click and have nothing to do with what I was hearing in my head. They give the viewer some context for the drums. If I'm happy with the drum parts that fit with a musical idea, I ca...

Great Jonathan! Would love to see a video on the drum heads and tuning you use!!! That would be so cool....thanks for your indepth answer here as well!!!
Really interesting concept Jonathan! Just touching cymbals and drums lightly brings an entirely different sound. You have really interesting sounding cymbals...they are beautiful!
Beautiful and smooth playing and fills Jonathan. How are you tunning your heads on toms and bass? Would love to hear your thoughts! Maybe a future video? Your drums always sound perfect for what style of music you play and your playing....what else can I say but one word....perfection!!!
Thanks Bruce. I may just do that video. I think my approach is very simple. I use my ears. I start on the bottom head. I just want it to sing and resonate as much as it can for that drum. Flip it over and pull it up to a medium tuning or when it starts to sing. I like a bit of dip in the sound. So the bottom head is tighter than the top. Works out at about a minor 3rd depending on the drum. It's popular now, to tune floor toms really low and to try and get an almost secondary bass drum sound. I don't do this typically. I like to play the floor tom and in most musical settings, if the drums are adventurous and not just playing a back beat support role, a low tuned floor tom gets in the bass players frequency space and creates porridge. Especially live, a floor tom that's edging toward the higher side of say, medium, will cut through better and not interfere with the bass. The bass is still there so there's enough of an illusion that the tom is producing more bottom end than it is. I would tune drums for Bop kit differently. This is just my sound. The way I like it. It changes for other peoples projects and musical contexts - It wouldn't if I had my way, though..
Like that added snares off snare next to your floor tom on your left...very interesting solo work Jonathan!!
Sounds like you are far far away...really dig that...neat video!
Really neat affect!!!
Blazing speed! Interesting loop!
Loop is made from presets in Garage Band.
You nailed that 70s sound....lots of muffling...got a kick out of your snare muffle!!! By the way, what size bass drum are you using here?😊
Smokin Jonathan....wow!
Love that floortom on your left...opens up a whole new world for solo work!!!
Cool use of cowbell as anchor and reocurring theme...neat idea Jonathan!!
Great solo work Jonathan...really make the drums talk! So much enjoy when you get in front of camera and share with us. Lots of great ideas and food for thought. I remember years ago when the bottom heads were coming off the toms and bass drum and a lot of muffling and there would just be a thud....no drum heads singing! I think it was during the disco era. Drums sound better these days...yours sound amazing...great tuning!!!
Your hands just sail over your drums and cymbals...a real pleasure to watch you Jonathan!😊
I try, Bruce...
Giant backbeats.....good job!!!
Great feel and fills Jonathan....one of my favorite Jazz songs! 😊😊
Cool!! It's a great version!
Great camera angel...can really see your cymbal work!!! Love the Jimmy Smith sound!!! Nice video!
Love The News!! Cool job...great solid backbeats!!
Great job on a true classic piece....fantastic job Jonathan!!
Thank you!!
Nice arrangement by the boys in the band, and everything you did fit in just perfectly!!
Funk and jazz in same song is very cool...awesome playing!
Beautiful smooth swing Jonathan....as always, you do exactly what is needed!!
Cheers Bruce!!!
Really dig these Benson classics you are playing to....classy job Jonathan!!
Thanks Vinny Valentino and the gang at Play Along Jazz. They worked with George Benson himself, to create modern, updated versions of these classic tunes. It's a real privilege to get to play along with them.
Bravo Jonathan....a really good series!! I think for me, the takeaway is: There are as many kit set-ups and styles as there are drummers. So glad you did this series....a lot here to think about!!! Your spoken word videos are very interesting Jonathan....they really educate us all a great deal...nice job!!!
Thanks Bruce. I think it was good too. There's lots of nuggets in there!
Looking forward to hearing this!! Will just go through the entire thing and meet you at the other end!
Never heard a shuffle in 5...really neat and original innovation!!!!!😮
Nice 2 against 3 feel Jonathan....very cool! Bass drum beater sounds really good!!!
Nice improv work Jonathan! Heard you using hi hat cymbals as crash cymbals...very cool! Most drummers forget they are cymbals too....really nice work!!!!
I think the brain has to be going in 5 different directions to accomplish something like that beat....amazing drumming!!!!
That is the fastest double bass work that I have ever hear...wow!!!!!
Oh it's nothing, compared to the real double bass players these days.
You are a real double bass player man....awesome playing!!!
@@brucenorton3791 I know the tricks.
Great advice!! Somebody said to me back when I first started to play, that it is better to do half hour of practice each day than to do different lengths of times every day....just get that half hour in. Great lesson videos Jonathan!!! I only have 100 more videos to go till your latest video 😂....really enjoying them!!!
First 20 minutes there was some awesom wrist strength work going on...wow! They could get really strong quickly if a student were to do these exercises 4 times each week or so....nice video!!!!
Love to hear rudiments, and you play them so well!!! The small writing in lower right side is a great idea...it really helps. About ten minutes in, you stopped and made a comment that really gave me a belly laugh!! 😊😊😊
Haha Yes, there's a few of those floating around. No doubt a few more to come. Hahaha
What size and type of bass drum are you using here Jonathan? Also, what kind of head? Really solid!!!
From Giant Steps to giant drum licks...excellent job...a pleasure to hear you always!!!
Cheers! Bruce
Are you sure you didn't record this with Al???? Well done Jonathan!!
Nah. I don't edit anything. As played start to finish.
So true with what you are saying....really great points....thank you Jonathan!!!
I believe Miles and Wes Montgomery used Jimmy Cobb on drums...what a master player! You did a great video on this song...very tastefully done...perfect Jonathan!!
A really different version...neat how at about the 2 minute mark, you started to slip into a more upbeat tempo...nice transition!! Very cool video Jonathan!!!
Beautiful rolls!!!! The finger action in your single stroke is amazing...most if us cannot get to that level....congrats....great job Jonathan!!!!
The best exercise and one that I still do almost daily, comes from Tony Williams. You'll hear me talk about it in the Tony Williams series. It's just, singles, doubles and paradiddles but played evenly. So unless I'm watching, I shouldn't be able to tell what the sticking is. It's basically impossible to do perfectly.
Your dums always sound amazing! Just using 2 mic system is great...all the years I did studio work, there was almost always 4 mic system....except bass drum, the other three were always close to my tubs, and I was always worried about hitting them. Especially the snare mic between the hi hat and mounted tom about 2 inches from snare...ugh!!! What brand of mics are you using? They get the job done for sure!!! By the way...hope I am not bugging you with all my comments or questions! Once I start watching your videos Jonathan, they are so inspiring, I cant stop watching!!!!😊😊 I went all the way back to your first video you did 7 yrs. ago and am watching every one till your latest video....Take 5.
My theory is that the drums are a mini orchestra. The sound of the drums is the sum of all the moving air and sympathetic resonance. So I use the example: You wouldn't mic each string of a guitar and EQ them all separately and glue it back together again. When you mic a guitar, you want to capture the whole instrument. This is also true of Piano. With drums, it means the player has to produce the sound. This is much more difficult but you have a much larger colour palette and dynamic range. My drums for my personal sound, never have any muffling. Not even in the bass drum. I want the drums to sing. Thanks a million!!! Glad you're enjoying it! Good chatting. Cheers Bruce!
Amazing solo and foot work!!! Great to see your foot work...did not know you had the double beater thing going! Do you use that all the time? Really educational video Jonathan!! Glad the beaters are working...they look really interesting!
Always enjoy hearing your freestyle solo work!!! A lot of interesting things to see and hear!
Love those noodles!!!!
Ahhhhhh....the Rudiments...ya gotta love 'm!!!! A great video....mind blowing! Great for students to see some rudiments and where a drummer can go with them. Your extended solo work reminded me of the great Louie Bellson!! Great video Jonathan!!!!!
Louie!!! What a legend!!!
Interesting video...nice studio set up. Drum track sounded really good Jonathan! Did you also play all the instruments on this song? I know you have done that in the past! Was the studio at a friends home or commercial studio? Sorry about all the questions! I just have a very inquiring mind!😊 thanks for posting!!!
Cheers Bruce. It's a tune I wrote for a project. I played everything except keyboards. This was at a home studio in my local area. It was a community project. And no worries!! I appreciate your engagement, I'm always happt to answer any questions. Glad you're enjoying the channel!!
All kinds of things happening here...nice edits! Great idea to have camera picking you up from left side so we can see not only great hand work but you feet and leg work! Nice and interesting video!!!
All kinds of styles in this one Jonathan...gives us all a chance in one video to see how many different styles you can play....really impressive...nice video....glad you posted it!!
Nice song by Benson...really nice groove you have going! I remember playing this song in clubs back in 1976...we did it slower, but really like the tempo used here better than our slower version! Nice job Jonathan!!!
Great tune. It's definitely done the rounds!
Really nice groove you are laying down here Jonathan...man, you also have great ears...not an easy song to play!!!
Nice use of cowbell in here...also incorporation of latin feel....great solo work Jonathan!!!
