jared, ur fuckin cool man! u motivate me alot! been playing drums for about 12 years now and ive never seen practice vids like urs before it helps me so much thanks meng !
I have only been playing a few years and I just recently started incorporating ghost notes but I had no idea they were called that. I just liked the way they sounded haha :D
@carcassgrindcorpsesc If you're looking at advanced lessons you should probably already know the 4 paradiddles, as they have been covered in previous lessons. And it's just good to know the rudiments.
Jared, will the song you played along to at the end be available as a play-along on your site sometime? I'd love to jam along to it and maybe upload a cover of it, it sounds really groovy and fun to play along to.
I started with a simmons sd9k and being around all my friends who are very good percussionists made me really regret going the electronic route. They're a little cheaper and quiet, but they lack many characteristics which are only available through acoustic sets. Just something to think about.
Question: I have watched the full ghost notes series (beginner-intermediate-advanced) and I can do excersise 3 at 50bpm, but not a 100 simply because I can't make the drumstick bounce quick enough on the snaredrum. My question is: is this caused because of a bad snare drum tension or something else that has to do with my kit, or is it my technique? I am so eager to learn this, because then I can make rolls with my right hand and ghosts with my left, and that's what I want to learn. Thanks a lot!
It might be your technique. It’s important to learn how to freeze down the stick quick enough to hit the ghost immediately after it while still staying relaxed.
The only 4 exercises you ever need to develop your ghost notes, are all 4 variations of paradiddles played between left hand and right foot, with 8th on the high hats.
@Spacecowboyy hey man, i am in love with Halperns playing too and just had an online lesson with him via Bandhappy. A lot of his grooves are based on linear patterns between kick, snare and hats. Try playing ghosted singles between the hands and feet and adding a accented back beat on the 3. Played at 16th's between the snare and kick - skskskskSksksksk skskskskSksksksk. Same thing with doubles - sskksskkSskksskk sskksskkSskksskk. Hope this helps, they sound awesome up to speed!
Thanks man you're the main ghost 😂 how are things in Vancouver with all the drag Qeen riots and high living cost ...are people still relaxed as in 2009 ...is the music scene blooming ? Anyone ?
I'm just a beginner but thought I'd drop in on this lesson. It can't be that difficult, right? Well it is lol. I don't even understand how people can pull this off
hesingshesobs ghost notes should be barely heard at all. he's purposefully making them loud. Other musicians also use ghost notes, especially jazz saxophonists trumpet players and so forth. its actually possible to truly ghost a note on instruments that require breath, on percussive or string instruments I guess u could just call them dynamics but still there are slight differences
you know, this site is awesome for... you know basic learning and documentation gathering, but advanced drumming is more than... weird ghost notes and fancy names, it's taking all that you know about music styles and fusing them
How important do y'all think "ghost" notes are? They can't be heard in a live concert unless everybody else in the band stops playing. They are fun to do, but hard to hear.
They arent extremely important in a standard live setting (with a band where everything is showcased not just the drums) but I think for studio playing or just writing you can use them to come up with interesting things. They arent something you have to know but I mean for the sake of experience and expanding your playing they would be a good thing to learn. I always try and learn as much as possible.
I watched this just to see where I'm headed with ghosting. Totally awesome. Now...back to the beginner lesson for this scallywag!
You’re a great player and teacher. Thanks for sharing!!🙏🏽
Lol came straight to Advanced lol 😂😭
Alex Dietrich same bro
it's not helpful either lmaooo
lol
Only way I know how.
thanks Jared. I LOVE grooves like this. The first groove is one of my favorite to play. i'll definitely learn the rest!
Great drummer, even better teacher! I'm very grateful you're sharing your knowledge, let alone for free. Many thanks dude.
Was just going to post that. Love their drummer's style.
Love the vids! Thanks a lot for giving us such useful lessions - it's really appreciated!
The Rosanna Shuffle every drummers love

Fantastic jared.. very nice technique to grow ghost note stroke..👍
Ian Mosely of Marillion uses the final technique quite regularly. Nice to see it demonstrated here.

This is perfect, thank you for this helpful lesson!

Good stuff. More advanced lessons!
Great lesson Jared, this is definitely one of my favourites.
Really gr8 video. Loved this!
Think I’m ready to start practicing the first 2 but damn that third one is insane!
The intro clean😂
@Kudan26 yeah i posted cause the shuffle he played is remarkably similar to Bonham's yet he credits the fame to Pocaro. Either way, great video.
ive started with an electronic drum. i think alesis dm6 or the ddrum dd1 are the best for starting.
greetings from berlin
those triplets sound sick
Can you teach us the "Mushanga" groove by Toto?
I started with a simmons sd9k and being around all my friends who are very good percussionists made me really regret going the electronic route. They're a little cheaper and quiet, but they lack many characteristics which are only available through acoustic sets. Just something to think about.
This was really helpful man. Thank you and great video!
Great stuff!! Can't wait to work on it! Nice snare btw
You know you're getting there when the intermediate level is too easy and the advanced level is just hard enough for you to be able to work on.
Great ideas!
Purdie shuffle! I love that one.
Second half of The Cinema Show from Genesis is a nice ghost notes paradiddle example.
Question. Is it possible to do 3 32nd ghost notes (in the end he does two between the actual snare hits)? Programming drums as a novice drummer …
Bring back the drum battles! :)
Sick grooves
Nice grooves. Always are.
thank you for lovely ghost notes.
I woud be very happy if you could play fool in the rainbow by John Bonham
Wow, straight up flexing at the end of the video! My left hand doesn’t work like that currently! 😂😂
thanks it really helped

hi could you pls do some more viedeos on Triplets and catagorize them in Beginner intermediate and advanced?
Sounds like Fool in the Rain. I need to pull me notes out, that song is fun.
Are you uploading the exact same content on both of your channels?
The only 4 exercises you ever need to develop your ghost notes, are all 4 variations of paradiddles played between left hand and right foot, with 8th on the high hats.
Thx for the tuto :)
oh nice!

Tnx. Actually - thanks so much JF.
Genial amigo, un saludo desde Ecuador- Cuenca!

Can ghost notes be played on the bass drum?
Can you do a hip hop style drumming tutorial for beginners, lol?
Nice
gracias
Intermediate notes were harder :D
Thanks man you're the main ghost 😂 how are things in Vancouver with all the drag Qeen riots and high living cost ...are people still relaxed as in 2009 ...is the music scene blooming ? Anyone ?
Couldn't play the first one, played the second one like cake... Damn you placement!!
The woes of drumming.
Mario Mandzukić? 😂
@Kudan26 Pocaro might be famous for the shuffle he played, but i think Bonham's shuffle is more famous than Pocaro's.
I'm just a beginner but thought I'd drop in on this lesson. It can't be that difficult, right? Well it is lol. I don't even understand how people can pull this off
DW kit? with what kinna kick pedal?
Those are Speed Cobra's :)
I never understood why drummers make such a big deal about these ghost notes. The rest of us musicians just call them ... DYNAMICS

@MRMJ317 NICE BRO!
I'm inbetween intermediate and advanced, cause the intermediate stuff was easy, but my chops are lacking after marching band ended :(
Most famous? I believe Bonham's "fool in the rain" is a little more well known
JARED DO AN IAMA POST ON REDDIT!
Same for me, doesnt really sound good played slowly but sound GREAT played fast
It's called a double stroke. I bet you can find this technique at youtube all over! ;-)
2.20 sound like your playing toto - rosanna
+No-lessons drum cover 0:36 he says it.
bruh jared is literally the first person ever i've seen wear a reddit logo proudly on his chest
WOW YOU MENTION JEFF
permeatate... nice
Those left hand triple strokes make my brain hurt.
sounds jazzy
Sir plzz required me best drum book . I am job parson so for that reason I have no time to go drum school.
Reddit shirt loooooooooool
You are near it
mastodon?
ROSSANA - Toto !!!!!
you know, this site is awesome for... you know basic learning and documentation gathering, but advanced drumming is more than... weird ghost notes and fancy names, it's taking all that you know about music styles and fusing them
Good luck trying to master those two ghostnotes followed by an accent with traditional grip...
Ughhh this is so frustrating! I cant do any of theese grooves :(
when you know the difference of the word " BIG and HUGE" youll know the answer why they call it ghost note.
My sound cut out for a second at:07 so it sounded like he said " hi my name is Jared F**k :P
0:41 you said porsay...vampire..
Me to does it seem hard
awesome. and im not even a drummer.
JESUS CHRIST Loves y'all
no troll dislike? thumbs up
Jeff stole the drum riff from John Bonham. Fool In The Rain, Led Zeppelin. He admitted it before he passed on.
Isn't this the guy in Grandma's Boy that sleeps in a car bed?
And Bernard Purdy does circles around Pocaro's shuffle.
for some reason to me ghost notes dont sound good at all unless the groove or whatever is being played is being played really fast.
👻🎶
Learn how to play ghost notes and you'll understand.
i think ill go back to intermediate lol
How important do y'all think "ghost" notes are? They can't be heard in a live concert unless everybody else in the band stops playing. They are fun to do, but hard to hear.

I totally disagree with my statement on Ghost notes. I believe they are very important. Live and learn.
Eulypion I like to do off beat snares instead of ghost notes because there like the same thing but easier to hear
Sky Knaak hey mate I understand what your saying about placing the ghost notes in different places
John Bonham uses them in like most of his songs
Please, Jared, please. Call it "The Purdy shuffle" like it is.
Like for the Reddit shirt!
remove the metronome ticks cliks on future vids. totally cant hear any natural accens in your ghost notes
Helllllllp
