What to Practice Ep 1: Unlocking the HERTA

  • This Isn't a lesson... Instead, I want to share what I am practicing, my thought process, and the exercises I'm using.
    This video ended up being a lot longer than I had originally planned. But there is just SO much to discuss... I recently began my journey of exploring the Herta. I have never really taken the time to properly learn it and become comfortable using it and I've decided the time has come.
    Hopefully this video will inspire you to take on the Herta for yourself! Enjoy!

    Bro, this is exactly what learning drummers need. A simple explanation of a rythem, application on one sound to get the hang of it, trials of different dispositions, and then application on different sounds of the drum set.
    Absolutely easy to follow and apply.

    Man... you made me realize a fill I’ve been using in a song is a KLR herta, I’d never thought of it that way before I just was doing it. Now I can really work it out! Hertas rule but I typically think of them as a 3 over 2 pattern, your 16th note explanation really expands the vocabulary. Subscribed!

    Hi
    Great video about 4-Note Herta. The bass drum ideas are very interesting. I also like the orchestrations over the toms.
    However, I am more of a fan of the 3-note Herta, because it shifts so nicely over the 16th notes.
    I'm always looking for how to bring rudiments to the drum set.
    I find it a pity that most of the rudiments stick to the pad. The sheet music is also very nice.
    Clapping is often underestimated. Sometimes I find it really useful and helpful

  • @stevethepope
    @stevethepope 3 года назад +8

    Great lesson! Except you have the herta incorrect. A herta is by definition 2 short notes and 2 long notes, making it a phrase with a 3 feel.
    Lose the extra 1/16th note and you’ll have it correct.
    Ie. 1-e + (RLR L)
    This gives the herta a 3 feel over 4 when applied to a 4/4 bar.

    • @amv240
      @amv240 Месяц назад

      That’s what I thought about the herta. However, it should be changed to a triplet (losing the last 1/16th note would still not make it right?).

    • @kevin.attard
      @kevin.attard 29 дней назад

      yeah I don't know if it's technically a herta, although still a good exercise. I don't think it has to have a triplet feel either though, it's just 2 sixteenth notes followed by 2 eighth notes.
