This video was everything I needed for my young drum set players starting in jazz band. The PDF is stellar , too. Thank you for this incredible resource
This is a very useful lesson, I really enjoyed it! I especially like the 12/8 example. Have you considered recording a full lesson focused on grooves in non-standard time signatures?
Nice job! I would add a rhumba to the list...think "A Night in Tunisia ". Philly Joe, Art Taylor, Danny Richmond, and more all have good rhumbas played on the snare with wires off, X-stick and rimshots. Also sounds great with mallets. If you're playing a commercial job with standards the rhumba was always part of the repertoire.
Great stuff Zac. I really enjoy this channel and I’m getting a lot of it🙏🏾… quick question: What are you using as your top felts for your rides, they look like plastic covers?!?!
Hey Kenneth! They are called 'The Grombal'. Its basically a rubber sleeve that substitutes a plastic sleeve/felts. I use them on LITERALLY EVERY cymbal... great product
I cannot thank you enough for providing the tools I needed desperately to play the music I love.. thank you
You’re so welcome! Glad you got some value out of the video
only 5k views??? this is actually super useful, thanks
Ha, thanks so much! Hopefully it’ll be at 50k soon ;)

Great suggestion, I'll see about doing a part 2 for these concepts!

I chose the top 5 that I thought would be most helpful, but you’re certainly right, the Rhumba is a great one!!

Awesome thx for the reply 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Very nice. Don’t forget about 3/4 rhythms, ie jazz waltz & 3/4 ballads. 🥁
Oooo I think I'll need to do a part 2 then...
