excellent, several triplets, rudiments, a lot of technique, anointing and good advice, that's being a complete musician!!! Congratulations brother, you are a blessing!!!
This is sooo good. Thank you Carlin. I have struggled with understanding note value and placement on the kit. I have wondered why some of my crashes just sounded off or in the wrong place. I can see clearly now. "Nothing is hard, just unfamiliar!" - Carlin Maccular
This is crazy. You know, I didn’t even realize I’ve been doing this for quite some time. I picked up this principle in high school Jazz. I was trying to play big and my conductor told me that the big cymbals weee washing everything out; he told me to substitute tom or hi-hat hits in for some of those to space out and clean up the phrasing. 🔥🔥🔥 ESPECIALLY when recording. Too much cymbals will wash out the fills. Thanks for putting a name to this for me bro!!!
That’s it man. That’s the thought behind this lesson. If you’re playing something like Rock music, it’s a different story. This may not matter as much in that genre but yeah man you got it!
Thank you Carlin for your lessons and ideas!! I'm a subscriber of your Drum lessons from Concepts Chops Creativity!!🙌🙏 These lessons have changed my gospel drumming tremendously!!!
This is the second video I’ve watched and have learned more from you than years from other teachers, and your age just blows me away on how awesome of a drummer you are, I had to learn old school and it took s years and the technology age allows musicians to learn much quicker
The transitions and loose phrasing with a serious side of pocket!!! I love how you stay on your snare through every fill…accenting the 2&4….on the 16th note fills…the e&a accents are fire!!! Appreciate you sharing this!!!
Will do! In the meantime check out my free drum lessons playlist. There’s a lot of chops in there! I also have a full course on chops! Thanks for watching! Check out my free drum lessons plalylist here: ruclips.net/p/PLydxon8i41I6U0IzXAJwnVFwvSZPzW5l_
This is so profound because I don't have the chops of a lot of drummers that are my favorites (you included) but doing this like this will improve my drumming overnight. I really appreciate this lesson!
Love your ending , brother, where you emphasized playing the notes and going long or short..I might add, going soft or loud, too! I hear too many drummers that just play LOUD! So there are no dynamics to their sound, which is sad as in many worship songs, volume dynamics can make or break a song, and too many gospel drummers just want to play rock loud to be heard...Keep up the great worship drumming, Bro! :-)
Hey my bro, God bless you in Jesus Christ name's. Cheers from Brazil. About the lesson, I'm talking about the chunk around 6:07 until 6:11. I said "buzz" but is not necessarily it hehehe. Best regards bro.
What’s up bro!! I just bought your Concepts. Chops & Creativity Lesson Pack and Shedtracks Creativity Drumless Tracks. Thanks man!! I’m gonna practice for sure!! ✌🏽👊🏽
Yes I will probably touch on that at some point on RUclips. I also just released a 2.5 hour course that covers phrasing as well. The link is in my description.
It requires a strong sense of timing. As long as you know where “beat one” is in a measure, you’ll always be ok. This is a more advance training that I’ll probably share in my drumming school once it opens in May.
This is a interesting concept. I feel it could maybe cause some overthinking or confusion by advancing drummers, I think these are good tips for adding some flavor but shouldn't be used as a guideline for how you play overall. Any note length can be played on any part of the instrument by the timing you hit the next note, also with learning how to control things like dynamics and how much force you are using.
Yes. I actually mentioned that in the video. This is not to be used as a “strict rule” but as a guideline. Depending on what style of music you play, this can vary in importance. I personally play a lot of Gospel music with staccato lines and phrases as in this drumless track I’m playing. This concept matters in the gospel genre greatly. Maybe not so much in rock or something else.
Value for free wow. I’m just soaking up everything bro. Thanks for adding value. And to anyone who is looking for a solid course worth the investment click the link and purchase Concepts Chops and Creativity. He’s actually giving away 4 free lessons from it. Trust me it’s worth it
Just wondering why almost all your phrasing is linear?? No disrespect but almost all gospel drummers sound the same to me because your painting with one or 2 colors out of the whole pallet...
No disrespect taken man, it’s all good! That’s kinda like asking why do jazz players keep their left foot going? It’s a part of the genre. To directly answer your question though, linear drumming is simply what the Gospel genre requires. I’m actually on a few Grammy nominated and Billboard #1 records so I’ve tested this out a just little bit 😉. Essentially all drummers sound alike in a given genre, Traditonal Jazz, 80’s rock, Country etc. There is a certain pocket and drum fill that fits every genre. Same with gospel music. 👍🏽
Family! Let me know what you think about the lesson in the comments below! Any questions?
This is very very helpful.. Greatful!!
@@prabalbhandarkar1209 thanks for watching!!

I appreciate that! Thanks man. Your comment actually challenges me to get off the snare more for my fills. Lol. Thanks for the challenge!
@@carlinmuccular Bro I’ve been following you for years…since the early 2000’s…you keep me inspired!!

You are exactly right. This lesson will help you sound more pro without more chops.
Love this :) Im probably not alone wondering if you could break down the opening fill :) :)
Great information Carlin……
Thank you for this 🔥🔥🔥

Thanks Carson. Appreciate it!
man, amazing lesson. Some chunks that you use the snare with a "buzz" are very cool for a new lesson :)
Glad you liked it!
Can you tell me more about the “buzz” idea” I need more lesson ideas
Hey my bro, God bless you in Jesus Christ name's. Cheers from Brazil.
About the lesson, I'm talking about the chunk around 6:07 until 6:11. I said "buzz" but is not necessarily it hehehe. Best regards bro.
Great music instructor.

Are you going to come in Zambia for a drum clinic
Wow I like that
Great lesson Carlin!
Thanks bro! I appreciate it man.
Can you do a drum lesson about drum phrasing and drum flow?
Yes I will probably touch on that at some point on RUclips. I also just released a 2.5 hour course that covers phrasing as well. The link is in my description.
Very important lesson.
Thanks!
A few seconds of watching and I feel grown lol. Great advice
Glad you enjoyed it!
Dope lesson bro for sure
Appreciate it! Thanks!
Hey bro I know you change your cymbals out in other videos, what’s your setup in this one?
1:19 Could you show us how to do this improvisation? I think it's very difficult to place inside between the bars.
I appreciate!
It requires a strong sense of timing. As long as you know where “beat one” is in a measure, you’ll always be ok. This is a more advance training that I’ll probably share in my drumming school once it opens in May.
@@carlinmuccular O hope you will! Thank you so much!
Aye man this advice will go a long way. Preciate it
Hopefully so! Glad it’s hitting home! Thanks for watching.
Good advice !
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
