If you watch this video at half speed it turns into 15 minutes of 2 extremely stoned dudes giving you good friendly advice. Brilliant. Try it!
Also, 1.25x is like they've been doing rails all morning
Not sure that this was our intent, but nonetheless, I am happy that you got something from it, haha!
Hahaha it's awesome
Especially at 5:12 lol
Thanks for the excellent advice! I'm very calm now.
"I never would ever say that you can't teach an old dog new tricks. It's further from the truth. You always can."
"But how, Master Bruce, how?"
"You take a drumstick and you slap him across the head, and you'll see the most amazing changes ever."
This part^^^
I am 42 and I quit drums for 6 years. Now i'm the best i've ever been.
After months of not seeing any improvements in control on my single and double bass, I decided to get serious about technique. Went thru the drumeo videos on single and double bass and am starting to understand the different techniques for bass.
Very cool. I'm 62 and getting back into drumming. It was my dream but I gave it up. Thanks for the encouragement
What you say is so correct. I'm 68 years old and play better now than I ever have. I was off and on with playing and when I returned I retooled my technique with Whip and the ability to use the bounce of the drum head and now when I sit to play I view the process complete differently than before. Great technique unlocks the mystery of playing. More enjoyable than ever before!
Bruce Becker’s teaching are very wonderful !
Such an amazing and intelligent person
Really inspires me, the way he explains stuffs about how the body and mind is just perfect, definitely shows that he really want us to enjoy playing music and by understanding how the body works will also helps us use the techniques to improve our plays.
Technique is just a means to express what you hear musically on the drum set. It can be learned. As Bruce said, it is about control. Once you have it, then it’s about playing with the music needs.
MYTH #2. When I studied calculus for my engineering degree a very prevalent feeling I had was that I made no progress. I could study for hours, and still felt I hadn't learned anything over the day. I couldn't be more wrong, you make progress by every minute you put into something even though I doesn't feel like it. So from now on after I spent 60 minutes with practicing something on drums, but still don't master it, I think to myself that "I am now 60 minutes better than I was before".
My favourite technical thing to do at the moment is to mix grips - technical/traditional and French usually
I'm taking Bruce's lessons on hand techniques now. I'm an absolute beginner, and am SO GLAD I bought these lessons! Do yourself a favor and "splurge" for this course. It's only $200 for SIX (6) MONTHS, with one lesson/week. No matter how good I ever get, these lessons will still apply. Oh, and he's an INCREDIBLE drummer!
I think technique is important not so much for speed but for dynamics. I know a lot of guys that are competent drummers, but their musical palette is very limited because they never spent time honing their skills. They can play very heavy and loud but asks them to play something that grooves, or a fill with dynamic range, and they will struggle.
You are right! Dynamics require control, and that's what it's really all about :)
Great video!!!!! A wise man once told me '' the more you learn, the more fun your instrument becomes''
"Let's bust these babies down mann!"
I LOVE how Bruce Becker teaches technique!
Agreed Matt he's a wonderful teacher. Hope you had a lovely Christmas.
First of all, great video as always, very informal. Secondly, I came here from Jared's Instagram when he was watching it at half speed and WOW I died laughing. It's absolutely hilarious. They sound so wasted!
Haha! Thank you? :)
Drumeo haha no problem, guys!
Great tips!
Great advice
I'm in my forties
and since the summer ive taken up skin bashing since quitting in the early 2000's being re taught by a guy in his twenties.
on the path to true greatness
i think
NEVER TOO OLD TO LEARN
Put that handheld camera on a dolly... or get a lens with better IS. I like the attempts to step up production quality even further, but the shakiness is almost like vibrations, slightly rough on the eyes.
Drum technique is a very important asspect of a drummer
TJ Exactly LOL 😂😂😂
Drum technique exists so you drum with precision, speed, and with more efficiency. It helps ergonomically and allows you to get the best sound from your kit.
It's 100% practical. There's no discussion to be had.
Nothing can replace consistent good practice. Stay innovative.
Innovation is the hardest thing to do routinely ^^
The struggle is real.
Bruce is the man.
I love the advice but i spent the entire video waiting for him to play...i enjoy watching the playing...lmao...
I hear you... we have hundreds of videos of the best playing. Take some time to intake the knowledge of Bruce :)
Patience is a virtue . Sounds like a Jedi tactic. :)
Ive always dreamed to become like luke holland in drumming style, this helps me a lot.
Technique is like walking through a mansion. Sure you can walk through the hall, dinning room, kitchen and living room and get through the mansion but with drum technique you will open all the doors, learn all the secrets passages and find multiple exits. Yes the mansion will take time to explore as will good technique.
TL;DR
1) Why learn technique if you just want to learn drums as a hobby?
Presumably you are learning the drums to be able to play the drums well - why else would you learn? In which case technique allows you to play the drums well.
2) Technique learning takes too long to see results.
Skill and proficiency can never come by magic, otherwise we'd all be prodigies.
3) Technique is only useful for playing fast.
..and timing and feel! Technique builds control, not speed.
4) I have bad habits, can't teach an old dog new tricks.
Muscle memory can be reformed easily.
5) Drum technique doesn't make you a better musician.
??? see myth 3.
People learning the drums get the wrong idea about playing fast but that's a reflection on modern society
Drums are more physical instruments than the others, so of course everybody needs to learn technics of playing and musicality simultaneously.
but what are these techniques you speak of??
Instantly clicked when saw it on feed
Great vid, but I would challenge the last point. One can be great musician and can play no instrument whatsoever. It is rather a mindset, ability to listen and create. There are many players even with brilliant technique, but they are not musicians. Trechnique helps you to express yourself. Any instrument should be simply the instrument you are using to express yourself and the more you master it, the easier it the is. but once you are not a musician even centuries of hard practicing will not help you. Go paint. ;o)
There was no link 😭
its in the description...
question: is it bad to learn multiple songs at once? i find learning similar songs really hard right after each other so if theres a similar pattern my muscle memory makes me play the wrong one / mixes them up but if i practice them all together it feels a lot more fluid and easy so far ive been learning these 3 animals as leaders song for 2 weeks and ive gotten a minute through each song- would it be better if i could learn them all 1 week at a time?
Personally, I prefer to learn multiple songs at the same time. This allows you to take breaks on a song and work on another. Just working on one makes me really tired of the song, really fast.
Drumeo oh thabks i didnt realise youd replied aha ill stick to what im doing then thanks
Brother, I'm 30 and I've been playing music since 4. I learn everything I can when I can while I can. Who knows what is there to stick for the rest of your life, maybe only a technique or two or a lick or two, but it will never stick if you don't take the time to let it in.
Observe how jared takes a sip each time master bruce agrees with him....
What does that sip really mean? Think about it.
That you win....that those myths are actually myths!!
Cant believe drumeo replied to my comment!!
Listen .... I won a scholarship in my country (CUBA) to enter the conservatory to study percussion. The WORST 4 months of my life. Some people are born with a tick track , visualization of music and complimentary grooves. After 5 years of just banging on empty cans and chunk of old tires I came to the USA and sat on my full set. EVERYTHING was just CLEAR . A million of things i was doing they actually had a name "rim shot", Flam, syncopation. NO ONE taught me this . I guess that in Cuba you are born listening to so much different music that if you have that metronome in your head and are helped by inventive fill and silences. you do NOT need lessons. Now, I did made a point to listen to old rockers and developed power then I'd spent a week to nail 50 Ways to leave your lover" by Steve Gadd,
so after an accumulation of knowledge with NO ONE training me I landed gigs rather easily ."Who do you want "Copeland?" what song ?
So I do NOT think studying time signatures and all that goes with it makes you a good drummer. The PASSION for drumming makes you a GREAT DRUMMER.
Oh. and Piano is also a GREAT help
WELL, you know...
Don't mind practicing, Just don't like doing it for more than 5 minutes in a day.
✌️💥👍🏻
U realize people don't actually believe these things. They're just excuses to stay lazy
Don't be Lars
