I wrote this on guitar, purely based around the Jeff Porcaro/Purdie half time shuffle type of feel, not an exact copy, just sumthin to play drums to mainly.
the transition at 3:04 is so amazing and clean.. i remember 2 years ago repeating just that part over and over again like 20000 times.. and here i go again repeating that part again and again... such a nice sound
really musical phrasing from the drummer! (especially from 2:10 till end) I would recommend that all drummers who typically learn a 'fill' and then toss it in anywhere & everywhere without considering context study this video and learn from this guy's measured & tasteful approach to music making.
Huge fan - thank you
Thanx for commenting Rob. It's a labour of love. You're correct, I s'pose the verses are funk, choruses more jazz inspired by breaking into a swing feel.
Dean: )
Oh my god, so minimalist and smooth... just what I want to sound like. Every fill has a reason.
I wrote this with drums in mind, as it is really just a groove with no lead instrument. Thanx for your kind words.
Dean: )
That was a real pleasure to watch! I'm often frustrated by folk over playing but that was a joy! I agree, very tasteful...
kick is on the 1, snare on 3, but the hat and general groove is based on a 16th triplet feel (which is too fast to count out loud at this tempo) . In hip hop at these tempos, they take it to another level and dissect their grooves between a 16th triplet feel and straight 32nd notes, often swapping between the two grooves in the one fill...and they often displace the fill by one 16th note. I did a lesson vid on the half time shuffle a while back. Cheers, Dean
this song brought a smile to my face, so smooth, so enjoyable!!
I'm like you, can't stop watching this video, absolutely toe-tappin brilliance.
thanx, its a remo ambassodor coated black dot(old). The snare is a maple 13 inch piccolo medium tuned top head, bottom head cranked and just a sm57 on top +eq,compression, reverb.There's a fair amount of the snare sound in the room mic aswell, which is picking up the strainer, I normally use a bottom mic aswell, but didnt this time.
@colourfulwithaU it's a technique called moellar where the stick rebounds and with a whipping motion, u get extra strokes. You need to keep your hand relaxed, but also maintain control of the stick. You can play the pattern thru brute force, then switch to moellar for a rest, you can get 2, 3, 4 or even continuous hits using the moellar stroke. I'm using moellar for 2 strokes, 2nd stroke has less attack.
thanx joey, I wrote and recorded it, says so at the beginning of the vid. U can download different versions of it for free from the links in this videos description box.
Cheers, Dean : )
So cool Dean. can we still download it? I’ll check.
@@BenjaminGib er don’t know, possibly, i think this was my first youtube video, I wrote and recorded this track to jam to
Been listening to this track for so long but I never realized I wanted a bassless version so much
Five stars. Fits the music perfectly.
one of the nicest kits iv ever heard!!!
I started hittin things round 8.Was doin gigs at 12.I should be a lot better than I am, but I never practised much after 16. You're never too old, just practise the right things, most of the great drummers are peaking at forty or fifty. I know a guy who'd easily kick my ass, he started at 21.
I just wanted to tell you that this is such a nice background music and drumming here. i came back here after 2years(you can ctrl+F and search my name on comments haha). I still remember that when I first listened to this, it sounded awkward so i made some stupid comments, but the more I listen to it the more it sounds perfect. I just came by here from the list of recommended video and this gave me such a great nostalgic feeling I got chills all over my body.Thank you so much for the great music
I don't think it's actually considered jazz when it's this good 😅
this that zazz music
jazz fusion
Hi Dan,
It is by way of Jeff Porcaro's beat in the song 'Rosanna', which he explains was influenced by the Purdie shuffle and a john Bonham groove.
Although, I don't strictly do the 'bo diddley' part of Jeff's groove, I tend to add a sixteenth feel in places.
Thanx for the comment! Dean
Musical and solid. All it would ever need.
love the 16th high hat stuff so spot on
it's amazing how i can't stop watching this video
AWSOME!!!
absolutely love this... great rhythm in the chorus section
Thank you, I'm not a great guitarist, I just used some basic maj7 and min7 type chords, quite chromatic actually. Thanks for watching.
Really nice feel groove sound production composition..Everything. I like how you use the room mics to give a realistic representation of the drums.It also give a sense of velocity to the drumming. One of the best drum videos on youtube.
Mapex maple snares, i just love them.
Oh, and the black panther maples too.
Very nice with the classic Rosanna Shuffle.
That's a hard groove to play and you handled it with ease.
Great transition into a straight 16th pattern towards the middle too, along with some great great soloing throughout.
Awesome job!!!
it's french grip, I'm using mostly fingers to play the fast shuffle hi hat groove, I often change grip depending on how aggressive or delicate I need to be, thumb will swivel up or down. Check out John Robinsons hi hat technique.
thanks for positive comment, its much appreciated!
Thanks for your nice comment!
Cheers, Dean
thanx stickmasterr, yeah, I wrote this a while back as a funk/jazz instrumental, u can download a playalong version from a link in the vid description, one with click, one without : )
Cheers, Dean
Your timing and pocket is on POINT!
loving the echo on the snare.
Thankyou, I've been playing on and off for over thirty years.
@naedsukram Absolutely no problem... just watching this again and I still love it. Keep up the good work
Many years of practice (and earing), i presume, to get this feeling ?
Congratulations.
Nice Rosanna shuffle feel @ the begining
you're soo layed back man
@CoLuCcIMoB760 Thanks man, appreciate you stopping by to listen : )
Dean
It was absolute pleasure to watch this
@GutPyle thankyou, yes, it's not exactly a typical jazz ride, but it has got a nice glassy sound and a good bell.
Thanks for commenting, appreciated.
Dean
Cheers Max, indeed a compliment coming from such a gifted teacher and drummer!
thanx, it's a simple chord progression i wrote on acoustic guitar, mainly to play drums to.
Cheers, Dean
cheers coldfeel, I still have a long way to go. Thanx for watching.
@ewokdrums9 no problem, thanx for the comment, Dean : )
@Redspy27 thanks man, big compliment, Zoro is a groove monster and I really admire his skills, I have not studied him or know much about him, seen some clips on You Tube and read about him in mags.
Thanks for your positive comment.
Dean
Perfect, Clean.Great drumset and good techinique
i can hear Steely dan behind this !!!!
wow ! i loooooooove !
congratulations fron a French Blues-drummer
Not surprised, it's a heavy ride, I would like something with a bit more wash, but it's got a nice ping to it, cuts thru anything.
Thanx for commenting!
damn that was GROOVIN'...so chill...i wish i could play like that. some day, hopefully.
@colourfulwithaU good question, I'm bouncing the stick, it's a moellar technique that is a whipping motion, you get the 2nd stroke sorta for free as the stick comes back up. There's heaps of lessons about it on youtube : )
Starts like Toto's Roxxana. Same bass drum pattern and same shuffle.
But interesting paterns at rest of performance.
Like it.
I enjoyed listening to your composition. It's really thoughtful.
Wow I really enjoied this. I haven't been playing drums for long and I really want to start playing some jazz type stuff and this has really inspired me to want to learn jazz and funk even more. (sorry if this is a different genre or style that I am actually calling it. I really don't know a whole lot about music)
Thanks for the upload and hard work you did to make this.
@H4rdboiled thanx for the compliment, glad u enjoyed it : ) Dean
I love the part at around 2:14 where you move from the light cymbal accents to the sixteenth note high hat groove. That was kickin. The whole thing sounded great though, awesome work :D
@polke14 yep, guitar, bass, drums, original tune. Thanx for the nice comment : ) Dean
WOW! Sound HQ! And tight as bloody hell!
thats so good for the ears man... adore you
Thanks, it's a half time shuffle feel, like the purdie shuffle, u can search youtube, or i have a video explaining the basics of this groove.
@morphbal1234 good question, the first riff starts on F and the whole thing is quite chromatic, the chorus section starts on Emaj7 changes to min7 every 2nd fret descending down to Amaj7.The middle halt time bit...I cannot remember (it's was just a jam thing I recorded)
You have a really nice groove and feel to what you're playing, I learned some things from watching your video. You have the Smooth Jazz and Fusion going on!! I dig it!!
@oliverb96 glad u liked it, thanks for the comment : )
Yes, based on Jeff porcaro's half time shuffle, which is based on the Purdie shuffle and Bonham shuffle.
sounds awesome!!! lovin that that "Rosanna" style shuffle.
Thanx, yeah it's def close, but this groove was used long before 'Rosanna' by bands such as Led Zepplin, Steely Dan.
stellar, one of the best vids I've seen so far...
Thanx jimsterdam, yeah, it's fun to play to, simple, but grooves well. I'm pretty sure the MP3 I posted has 'no' drums on it, so u can play along to it.
What a beuty song! Your grove is amazing!
That ride is surprisingly sweet sounding. Doesn't sound like the (few) Rude's I've played. Very nice.
I dont care at all if this is a copy this is really good drumming
perfect snare sound.
Good job sir! I have been improvising guitar with this like 2 hours,good drummer !
Hi erikeepper,
I've uploaded another version with a click track. The track was recorded at 170bpm with PTools set to play quarter notes. There's another playalong with my latest video which has a shaker track to help keep in time. I'll try and include more soon.
Cheers, Dean
I've watched this video about 400 times :) Love it :D
@kindbeats thanks Andrew, means a lot coming from such a groove master. Yes, very similar to Porcaro's version of the half time shuffle.
Great sound and feel. Very well recorded too.
Man, you've got great groove, it sounds amazing! Keep up the good work!
nice rythem man good choice of cymbals and crashes good tone everything
@beardfish cheers mate, thanks for your comment.
@Pied777 cheers, it's been done a lot, but I never tire of this groove : ) Dean
they're also known as p-funk. they're a funk band, george clinton is their frontman if you've ever heard of him.
the toms sounds great!!!
man that was great drumming. love the sound of your drums.
Ha! Another back handed compliment, love it. Glad this inspired u to wanna keep playin!
Cheers, Dean
dude u got it figured out most drummers have all this shit and they dont even play on it except for terry bozzio hes sweet but u got every thing down u play on all of it very nice work love the guitars
Great groove, sounds like the Purdie Shuffle. Got it very tight!
@SpOuTni11 it's an original song I wrote. You can download it from a link in the video description, and there is a drumless version. Cheers, Dean : )
thanks man, a lot of the other stuff I write is kinda pop jazz, I dont write a lot of instrumentals. But yeh, I will be trying to flog a CD of some sort : ) This track is available for purchase on itunes. Cheers, Dean
cheers, thanks for your comment : )
Thanx,
yeah steely are awesome, thanks for the comment!
I really like your sound. The hole Kit sounds very round and nicely tuned and the sound of the cymbals fits in, too. Sounds like you really put some work into that kit. (Also great playing of course :-) )
Beautiful feel man. The groove is reminiscent of Porcaro's "Roseanna Shuffle". Great playing on ALL instruments!
Beautiful playing. I may take advantage of the MP3 tomorrow. Thanks
I LOVE this guy!!!
brilliant, everything is in right place, good job man
Pleasure to watch my friend , ur a natural , i dont know how i found it as i was looking for if you were mine live by level 42 but glad i did all the same... Apparrently we are not musicians lol...gona let the musicians in my band watch this clip to aid my argument... take care mate..
I haven't heard 'fool in the rain' which is zepplin I think, but yeah, the other two are well known to me, thanx for watching.
as u can see on this clip, I'm not over fussy on type of head. I currently have emperors on all toms, g1 coated snare, pinstripe kick. I use sm57s, Rode, pro tools 7.4, 002 rack...nothing special. I do bus kit mix to it's own compressor before master, I use 2 room ambient mics, and a Rode NT4 stereo mic as overhead.
