      how do i choke the stick " how many inch's from bottom (vs) how quick the rebound????" i've found out you can hit the middle of the stick on the snare rim and get an extra hit with no "effort needed " also im having trouble holding on to the stick with the left hand whyle blast beating ???

    • @wanjanechtangroeger
      @wanjanechtangroeger  4 года назад

      @@pLayC I don't understand your first two questions. But the extra hit when hitting the rim is probably the gravity blast (just search for that on yt). Holding on to the left stick while blasting - well, that depends on which technique you are using. Make sure you hold the stick in a good and relaxed grip and if you are using flying fingers or push-pull it is absolutely normal to loose the stick often in the beginning ;)

    Great video, thanks for posting. Just wanted to remind drummers out there who want to play along with tracks that are beyond their current speed limit. RUclips settings at the bottom of the screen allow you to select different playback speeds. For example, you can slow down the video to 75% or 50% of the original speed, or you can play it back at tempos faster than the original, up to twice as fast if you like. This creates a lot of exciting practice possibilities..

    Wonderful advice as always! You sir, are a blast beat guru. Your honesty is on point as well, i tried to learn my favorite nile song (burning pits of the duat) on guitar once and couldn’t do it. I believe it wouldn’t be any easier on drums. They’re an above average band for sure. I’ve seen them a few times. They were actually my first pit. Very talented guys.
