Hey Ken, I a happily drumming along with you. Only at the fast speed I watch in awe. I did the live classes with you in September and they gave me the confidence and connection to your content to drum along.
Hi Jessica! So happy you were able to join us for the livestream lessons! And I'm glad you're enjoying the videos here on my channel. All the best!

Very good Workout.
Thank you for creating this.
1) It will help me in playing my Frame-Drum better.

Great tutorial and good timing as I've just bought my first frame drum. Regards from Europe
Hello Mateusz! Glad you enjoyed the video. Happy frame drumming!
Awesome thanks for the response. I’ve had some success controlling the bass with high pass/low cut filtering. Appreciate your tips :)
Glad I could help!
Awesome stuff, been looking for something like this. Ill check out your website too.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Nice workout!
Loved the way you looked in the camera before end of every cycle. Gave me feeling of playing in a drum circle :)
Thanks man.
Hi. Glad you enjoyed it! cheers...
@@kenshorley Is this bodhran that you are playing?
I’m playing an 18” Tar, made by Cooperman Drums. www.cooperman.com/coopermanhanddrums/hand-drums-tars-and-bendirs/
Hi Ken, find your lessons so damn easy that i bought a metronome so that i can adjust my speed. i am a total beginner. can you please tell me the tempo you use for slow/medium/fast so that i can adjust my metronome to your speed. boy i am loving your lessons. Regards
Hi. In this video I set the metronome to 150 bpm, and use a process of doubling the pattern for the medium and fast speeds.
@@kenshorley thanks a lot for your reply. yes my metronome seems to be in sync now with this video. its great to have you here.
🙏👍🙏
Teşekkürler!
What size (inches) frame drum is this? Thank you so much for the amazing video.
Thanks for watching! In this video, I'm playing an 18" Cooperman tar.
Can these be applied to the darbuka also? I don't have any frame drum yet..
Yes with some adaptation of the drum strokes this workout would be playable on darbuka. I'm also planning to post a Darbuka Workout too, so stay tuned to this channel!
Thanks so much man! Really enjoying your videos. Do you have any tips for playing in the upright position? I'm having trouble changing hand shapes fast enough in the free hand.
Hi Trent! Thanks for the kind words. Glad you’re finding the videos useful. To me, upright position is all about balance. If you can carry most of the weight with the hand which is holding on to the drum, it tends to give your other hand more flexibility and ease to change between drum strokes.
Ken Shorley Thanks, I really appreciate it.
What drum is that your playing..? sounds great..
Hi. I'm playing an 18" Cooperman Tar with a Remo Renaissance head.
I'm doing the workout :) Wow, the fast tempo is crazy fast - my brain cannot think that fast yet :D At the same time, the slow tempo is realy slow. I'm curious - what is the advantage of beginning at such a slow tempo, instead of starting at the fastest tempo that one can play comfortably at? I encountered this idea of progressing by doubling the speed in one of Raqui Danziger's lessons on Facebook so I assume it's some kind of neurological trick that's been proven over time or something.
HI Dan. Thanks for this comment! To me, there are numerous advantages to drum practice by moving through multiple speeds which all proportionally relate to the same basic pulse. Obviously, learning to "process" the flow of time is crucial when drumming. But typically, our perception of time changes as we move from a speed that feels "too slow" to one that may at first feel "too fast". For me, the practice is about learning to relax into any tempo, and to maintain rhythmic accuracy and groove, regardless of how fast or slow the river is flowing! Specifically, the doubling concept is fundamental to the practice of South Indian percussion (which is where I first encountered it), and it's a practice that I've noticed has helped my playing so much over the years. I think if you stick with the workout, you may start to notice the same benefits that I do! Enjoy...
@@kenshorley Thanks, I'm sure I will. I like the idea of "processing the flow of time" - it sounds like a mystical ability :)
Namaskaram 🙏
Thank you for the wonderful workout,will definitely practice it.
I'm a beginner with remo 14 inch frame drum, notations are not as crisp as the drum your playing, I'm having more resonance with my drum. Can you kindly share the details of the drum your playing?
Thank you
Thank you for the kind words! The drum I'm playing in this video is an 18" Tar by Cooperman Drums (Vermont, USA). It has a Remo Renaissance head. Happy drumming!
Hey Ken how do you go about mic’ing your frame drum. I’m experimenting with a sure sm57 mic placement, front back, distance etc. Recording into ableton. Sometimes too much bottom end, sometimes not enough high etc. Any tips?
Thx
Hi Brian. For recording purposes, I've experimented with a number of mic techniques. I'm actually planning a video on this. But I can say that most dynamic and condenser mics will have a "bass promixity" effect, so the closer you have the mic to the drum head, the more bass response you'll get. This can be either great or annoying, depending on the tone you're hoping for! The SM57 is good for most live mic'ing situations (where feedback is more of a concern), but I prefer a condenser mic (small or large diaphragm) or a good ribbon mic for studio settings. And I've gotten nice stereo results by using two small condensers panned to the left and right, with one mic close-ish to each hand.
Fantastic! Is a pdf available?
Sure! I’ll add one to the downloads page of my website.
Ken Shorley thanks Ken! If you have instructional materials for sale I do better with that then live on line lessons although I’m not opposed to that at some point. It beats a trip to Canada from Texas!
what size drum are you holding?
It's an 18" Cooperman tar!
Where can i buy those deep sound drums
In this video (and in a bunch of my videos!) I'm playing the Tar by the Cooperman drum company from Vermont USA. (@coopermanVT)
@@kenshorley thank you very much and thank you for sharing your knowledge i subscribed and thumbs up 👍
Mr. shorley, is this free to use?
What do you mean exactly? You can certainly watch the video as many times as you want for personal practice.
Greetings, i mean can one use your music to Their videos? Or is there any copyright issues? Thank you😊
Oh I see! Yes there would be copyright issues in that case. If you would like to discuss creating some custom music for a video of yours, please contact me through my website!
