      @@travisthree11 it depends there's drummers that are both all fills AND all groove the most influential drummer to me is Kashikura Takashi from the band Toe. Imo he's one of the most underrated drummers all time. Got a very unique style and is both extremes of fills and grooves its like the two terms are interchangeable every time he plays the drums. Check him out sometime its so goddamn cool

    • @morten1
      @morten1 5 лет назад +1

      Yeah. And I think that's one reason drum machines were/are so popular. They mostly just play the beat (programming fills takes time and effort).
      But nothing beats a real drummer grooving (and enjoying it) with a few tasty fills here and there.

    One word to describe this: TIGHT. You keep it tight. In the words of James Brown: Don't turn it loose, because it's a mother. You heed those words handsomely to craft a great sounding, funky, tight groove that's stylish and tasteful while not flashy or over the top. This is drumming done right.

      @@theego2897 Feel IS technical. It's not some black magic that some people have and others don't - that's just non-musician bullshit mysticism. It's a real, tangible thing that you can practise. It consists of great timing, dynamics, microrhythm (playing slightly ahead/behind), tone, how you actually hit the drum ("touch") among other things.
      Stop spreading this old boomer myth that groove/feel is some abstract thing you either have or don't have. You can practise groove and feel just like you can practise blazing fast playing. "Technical" players usually just don't do that, because... well, it's because honestly 99% of the time they have a massive ego and groove isn't flashy. Learning to play fast is also in a way easier than learning to play with great feel: there's all those things I listed that make up feel, and there aren't nearly as many resources on how to play with a great feel. And that's namely because of people like you, who spread the legend of groove being black magic fuckery.
