This is my go-to beat whenever I sit behind a drum kit I've never played before...or if I haven't played in a long time. I just close my eyes and relax and play for several minutes to 'feel' the kit, to get in synch with it. Thanks, Stanton! Really enjoyed this!
Man that sounds so cool. I’m a beginner drummer and my biggest challenge is holding a good consistent beat for more than a minute. My mind starts to wander and before you know it I’m thinking of what’s for supper
My mind always wanders because I get easily bored, and I've been playing for a long time, and it's still a challenge for me, and now I am old........ keep playing Dave, keep playing!
If like to get together with you if possible sir i love your way of teaching and you are easy and blessed by your higher power i believe believe and your soul orah please pardon my spelling . I'm very sensitive and have been through tons of challenges basically every day always but i try to keep going on and you are a blessed cool incredible person and of course player and all around musician!! By the way,i was a good friend of Keith karlock ,a great , great guy and of course everything else, but he is also such a beautiful person inside and out and i am so proud of him now and have lost touch with him and i don't have a computer but from day one practically i told him that he has the God given talent and that was it . the rest proved it's self . long story but I don't want to lose my point with you , You too are a genius!! And just to much to say about you!!! God bless you Chris i will get a new email and try to get in touch with you soon thanks again for all your fantastic videos
The key thing about this beat and style is that it leaves things wide open for constant improvisation by every band member, including the drummer. There is an infinite variety of fills and variations you can play over this. And guitar solos. And vocal ad libs. You almost can’t make a mistake. Listen to “Since I’ve Been Loving You” by Led Zeppelin for an extreme example of where it can be taken. This is core blues. Start with a simple framework, and then play whatever you feel.
Just found your channel. I know your work from COC in the arms of god. In my opinion, you were amazing on that record. I’ve heard the record 100 times and I still can’t figure how u pulled it off. Thank you sir.
I sent a song of mine that's in 12/8 to a drummer and he came up with smth, but not exactly what I wanted, which is exactly some of what you did in the "Outro" section. if only I had known earlier. You just played what was in my head for the song right there! It's one smasher of a song. I'll let you know when it's out.
I’ve always liked 12/8. Nice variations.
Thank you🙏🏼

Working on and practicing these beats to the songs in the playlist will be great for your focus! 👊🏼

@@tmaddrummer yes, staying focused is one of the biggest challenges. It is for me as well. I needed to practice focus too… still do.
@@stantonmooremusic do you have any tips for staying focused? Also, I really enjoyed your ending improv. I truly enjoy watching you play!
Same same!

Thanks and Blessings Stanton!
I like to drink beer at the same time while playing these beats.

Question : When you are playing Ride Cymbal , how come your HiHat is not moving ?
Just trying to keep it simple for this lesson. If I play the hi-hat on a 12/8 groove, I usually play with the snare on 2 & 4.
I sent a song of mine that's in 12/8 to a drummer and he came up with smth, but not exactly what I wanted, which is exactly some of what you did in the "Outro" section. if only I had known earlier. You just played what was in my head for the song right there!

Glad I found you today, I’m just starting out so thanks for this lesson 👏🇦🇺✌️
Thanks for finding my channel and for tuning in! 🙏🏼
Why did you stop playing Bosphorus cymbals? I absolutely love mine.
Malaka, I had to turn on the dehumidifier during that jam at the end cause the humidity reached 98% 💦💦💦
"I'm Glad" by Captain Beefheart has a nice example of this.
Can you do a video on 10/8 swing please?
Did you like the video? Don’t be demanding without saying something nice first. Wow.
Yes! 🙌🏼
I didn’t demand anything. I politely asked if he could show us another funky beat pattern.
Love it!
🙏🏼
Cool info !!!!
Real cool!
🙏🏼
Only a ballsy guy puts his phone on the snare.
Hopefully I’m as accurate as I think I am 😂
Check the Instagram called gaterista the dude has a cat that sleeps on his snare drum while he's practicing 😂
