    After playing this the first time I started to practice this sticking. For the last year I keep going back and play this over and over. I finally reach the point where I can finally play and understand how to do what he’s doing. It sounds so dam cool. So addictive to prefect it but doubt I will ever play it as good as Gavin. My favorite drummer. Wish he was my next door neighbor, LOL

      Bruce Lee once told:"I fear not the man who had practiced 10000 kicks once, but I fear the man who practiced one kick 10000 times." That's how Gavin mastered this pattern. And this is just one of many "kicks" that he played more than 10000 times.

  • @jtx9795
    @jtx9795 6 лет назад +5

    A variation of this that he's also said he likes to play is RLRLL. A favorite of mine is RLLRL, which is just the first five notes of an inverted paradiddle repeating. To expand on adding the bass drum, a seven stroke fill/groove idea I like to move around the set is RLLKKRL as 16th notes, just throw in another two more notes to make it fit into 4/4.

      PINK LLOYD you guys are here just to disagree with others. gavin harrison is both creative, fluent, has groove and catches up with the rythm. if you want to call drummers who cant catch up with rythm, doesn’t sound catchy and is boring the best you can. you may also call their music “progressive” but in fact there is no depth and they’re just boring

    This 6 note grouping, with the last note being a double kk (ie, RL RR L kk), is the basis for the epic fill in the song Fear of a Blank Planet. ruclips.net/video/E8tgLNgXCLA/видео.html The basic sticking is the same for the first bar in the fill (counted in 4/4)... then it goes into a crazy low-to-high tom figure to complete a 2-bar-long drum break. So great. It always sounded like things falling down onto the drums but in perfect time to me ;).

      Yes. The first two bars are 16th note triplets. Since note 6 of the triplet contains a double kick, yes 32nds.

      The double kicks at the end would be two 32nd. Notes Played in the allotted time for one 16th.note. The challenge is to get those double bass drum notes in time: in meter and keeping the notes clean and sharp like he does! That’s the way I look at it anyway!
      Maybe sliding the foot Forwards (heal up Slightly) towards the drum head for the two 32nd. Notes!

    @dannygoodchild7568 6 лет назад

    Gavin, I had a lot of fun with your favorite sticking. If you accent the left hand notes on the snare drum, they become quarter note triplets with the right hand playing a cymbal ride. Also, if you play the left hand on a closed hi-hat, you can make them on the '' ands '' and let the right hand do whatever it wants. I hope that I'm right and thanks for the sticking.

    Very cool, but I gotta say that 7/8 beat ( 3:30 )feels like 7/16 to me! It's a 7 sixteenth note pattern playing 2x in 7 eighth notes, so the upbeat of the 4th eighth note sounds like a new downbeat (being a strong kick). Of course he probably hears it as syncopation, but my less trained ears heard it more simply. After working it out I can hear it as syncopated 7/8 like he does, but I think most people won't unless they are musicians who are pretty comfortable with that sort of thing. I was exhausted just figuring that much out lol. I haven't even started to think about permeating 5 16ths over 7 16ths, much less with the second set of 7 16ths felt as a syncopation in a group of 7 8ths! Nooooooo!!! (Head explodes)

    • @jimmy_keegan_drums
      @jimmy_keegan_drums 6 лет назад +1

      Start by removing the faster idea. A drummer's primary task is to play something musical that makes a song feel good. Work on keeping good time. When you hear a drummer such as Gavin play, remember that he has been playing a long time and in that time he has built, not only his groove and time keeping, but like any language, his chops. Another word for chops is vocabulary. As a baby, we learned "ma", "da", "ba" and other basic sounds. Soon full words, then short phrases, sentences and eventually complex thoughts. By the time you are 25, your vocabulary is huge. By the time you are 40 it's not only bigger but your understanding of deeper thought allows a much more comfortable use of the language. Playing is the same. I don't mean you have to wait until 40 to play well but patience is your friend. Keep practicing, keep learning your rudiments and get comfortable with them. Speed will come on its own. Don't forget that the task is to play better time and make the song feel good. Build that vocabulary.

    Please note : the 7/8 beat - the right hand maintains the pattern of 5 (1,3 + 4) as demonstrated HOWEVER the left hand does not. Play the foot and LH as shown (typical 7/8 beat) The trick is maintaining the RH pattern. The LH will land WITH the RH at times. He should have made that clear. Good luck! And AS ALWAYS - patterns,licks, grooves in videos will typically sound better than YOUR versions because of the drum recording and EQing. Don't necessarily trust your ears.
