Roughly 10,000 hours of practice before I begin to hear and possibly play a smooth groove, having just retired at the age of 67, two hours a day of practice I will be 82 years old at that point. The goal now is to survive the marathon. I intend to go out with a bang, .......crash out laying on the floor, snared on my Tom.🤟😁
DOOO IT !😁!
ur a legend m8
Get it, Pop-Pop!
Yes! You’ll feel great
Do covers
All drummers deal with independence.. Def a huge obstacle for nearly everyone I know but practice defeats all!
Even goes for all two handed instruments, i play piano and holy sht it was hard
I gave up on drumming because i couldn’t get the independence. I’m here now.
I am literally on my first day of starting to learn drums and your lesson immediately gave me the ability to break the cycle of my right hand and foot following each other. Thank you! I have a lot to learn but so far this was the most frustrating thing!
You know someone's a badass drummer when they can build an epic groove using just kick, snare, and hi hat. I've recognized my lack of independence as a major road block and it's driving me crazy. Gonna start practicing these exercises asap. Thanks for the lessons man.
9:44 first exercise
11:04 second exercise
12:24 third exercise
thanks so much
Took man 9 mins to get to the point
nah the whole vid helps
Bro they're just timestamps for practicing later
@@akshgpt7 i was talking to homeboy 2613
Other foo’steaching drums : “Your independence is getting better just keep practicing man”
Rob: “your independence sucks, but ima show you how to fix it”
Love that he apologized to the snare at the beginning.
You have a gift for teaching Rob. I took lessons back in the 80's from a very, very good drummer. The problem was he wasn't a very good teacher. He assumed I knew things he was talking about when I didn't, showed me things instead of taking the time to make sure I understood them. I ended up being completely overwhelmed and discouraged. Now I'm turning fifty in a few months and am picking up the drums again after a thirty year layoff. I have been researching online instructors, I plan on picking two or three to follow instruction from. You are the best teacher I've come across by far. You keep it simple and fun without making the lesson feel like a chore. You explain things very well and you inspire me to believe I can start over and do things right this time around. I used to hate practicing, you've made me love it. Thank you so much.
I'm not a drum instructor...but one thing I tell beginners is...learn to RELAX when playing. It helps a whole lot.
I think thats sound advice for any single thing in the world ur trynna learn
Yea, I like playing that stuff that you played at the intro. Love 16th notes but especially 32nd note grooves and after drumming for 56 years that’s what I’m challenged with. What I dig about your’s and other drummers who demonstrate how not to play something is that you can actually play it- that’s quite challenging. Good job Rob as always- you’re a gifted instructor.
I bet nobody in the band likes 32nd notes. Sure way to get asked but to come back. Rule 1 is simple. Play less
Got to profess how amazingly helpful this video was. I’m a beginner with basic ability, and zero independence of limbs, until I watched this. Been doing the exercises for an hour and I’ve gotten so much better already. So pleased - cheers Rob.
I love this guy as a teacher. I hope his channel blows up.
Love this for my beginner daughter (and myself)!!!! Absolutely fantastic. Would love to see a video on independent left foot hi-hat work. Thanks for what you do, man. You are making a difference in the beautiful world of music!!
Thanks to you, my air drumming skills have improved drastically 😂
I'm a guitar player, seriously considering getting a drum set.
Just get one. Drums are the only instrument out there were you have incredible fun from the very 1st time you sit down. It’s the only instrument that you don’t have to be go at to enjoy. In no time you can put headphones on and start playing many songs. You don’t have to learn songs beat for beat, or note for note like other instruments. You can always dumb down a song to your level so you can still enjoy playing songs easily. You will not ever regret getting a drum set. I ask people all the time... how many ex piano and guitar players are there in the world. Then ask them how many ex drummers. Drummers are always drummers. Yeah we’ve all had times maybe where did play due to certain reasons but we always were still drummers and we always come back to it. Drummers play for fun. With most other instruments, people played it for a specific reason and don’t touch the instrument unless for that reason like high school band, recitals, my parents made me, etc. I can’t count the people I know who played an instrument but weirdly aren’t in love with that instrument. They would choose to sit down and play it for the fun of it.
Nikki Britt You have the Jerome Flood kit right now 😂😂
I am a Guitarplayer. But sometimes I think I am a Drummer. Since I got a drumset 3 years ago already it is also effekting my guitarplaying positiv.
I've played guitar long than I care to admit. Had drums for years but just recently started sitting behind them when no one else wanted to. They are fun. And Rob is the best teacher I've come across on YT. The others are alright for tips...but lessons...I stick with this guy.
I have been playing guitar for 40 years, and drums for less than 10. I got started with a cheap acoustic kit, got decent cymbals and drumheads, and eventually got decent enough to do a few gigs, but now I play for pure pleasure. I have just bought an electronic kit so I can go to the garage play any time I want. I hardly play guitar at all these days.
I've been playing for 35 years and your approach and delivery are always like an epiphany, fresh and new. So glad you're doing this for us all. seeing you playing live has become a goal for me. Sick, sick, sick.
The best teachers know how to impart useful drills that are _musical_ as well.
You are definitely one of them, Mr. Brown.
Those first two runs have such _wicked_ groove-potential right there; but the concept didn't properly start carving itself into my brain and spinal cord until I slowed the tempo waaaaay down. Like, waking up still blind-drunk-in-a-strange-dark-room, slow.
Took about 40 minutes to get up-to speed, for the initial 're-programming' to 'take.' Your lessons are freaky-addictive! Glad I found your channel. You're a helluva teacher!
I've been struggling with this for years, and you made it so simple to get it right. Thanks, Rob. Your vids are amazing.
Thanks, Rob. Lots of drum teachers on RUclips, but you're the only one I watch regularly. Great lessons, presented clearly, and most importantly...with a great sense of humor. :)
Woke up this morning, thinking I’m going to practise limb independence and see this video! Brilliant stuff
I had this issue for a bit and discovered this trick on my own, but stopped playing for a couple months because I didn’t think I was teaching myself correctly. Glad to see I was right! Can’t wait to use these example practices you showed us, this is the one thing that’s really given me a hard time
The most useable info in a very affordable amount of time. Top notch clarity. Your approach is entertaining but more importantly it is very engaging. I leave feeling like I owe it to myself to work on your lesson. And kinda like I owe it to you too lol
Man, your delivery is second to none. Love these videos.
I NEEDED this video badly. It gets annoying when my arm and leg syncs up. Thank you so much.
Awesome presentation of the material. You’re a true teacher. You can flat out play, but that’s not what’s making you a great teacher. Lots of incredible players who can’t teach. Not bashing those guys because teaching is a skill. You got that skill. I could go on and on about what makes your lessons work so well for people studying with you but there is no need to because everybody that comes back to you already knows it.
Im not a beginner but watched anyway because I wanted to know your approach to independence because I knew your take on this problem would help me approach some other aspect of where I have problems. Practice is obviously indispensable. But the ideas are as critical. How to think about something how to mentally approach something. You can practice all you want and still struggle. Many times it’s looking at something in a different way. I only developed the that basic level of independence shown in this video through frustration and way to much time and effort. I know that if I would have had this video I would not have been frustrated, I wouldn’t have had days of feeling depressed that I would forever suck and it would have come together for me much quicker.
Thanks for the work you put into this. I personally appreciate you and it also amazes me how there are people like you who sacrifice their time and money to just help a fellow drummer.
Whether you know it or not, I think you are one of the most important people in the entire professional drum world today. If the was a compiled list made by any industry journal or publication your name should be on it
Well said, man...
Well said friend!
Indeed man👍🏾
Thank you Rob. This is so helpful and I love your approach and help. Full of soul and giving. Bless you from the UK,
Mr. Brown, thank you so much for your videos. I love them! I started drumming again with the age of 40 and a brake for 25 years. I surched for practice videos and find yours. You are my coach now. Greets from Germany.
Brilliant! That made it so much easier to grasp.
Thank you sir, this video has Extremely improved my independence. Please keep the knowledge rolling.
I am a Sax/Bass/Keyboard player recently learning drums. You clearly Identified a newbie issue and a practical mechanism to address. Thanks to you and about two weeks of working on your lesson, right and left are vey much independent now. Thanks.
Thank you so much! I've unlocked 'em! Now just gotta keep it up everyday.
Wow Rob. No one I have seen ever explained this like you just did. I tried this and right off the bat....it worked. Ive been playing for quite a while and just never got good at my independence. In a matter of a few hours, major improvement was made. Thanks dude. Love you videos and attitude 👊🏼
Well that cowbell just blew my mind. Wow. What a concept. Thank you so much
This is fantastic insight. Thank you.
Great video Rob. Things happen slowly and thanks to your videos I have the slightest improvements each day. I’m 48 started playing drums 3 years ago and I really enjoy your videos more and more each day. Your left foot independence video is fantastic.
Me and my 2 very young kids just started learning and your exercises are very helpful and explained well. You have a gift of teaching. Thank you.
i was 21 when I started playing drums and now i am at my 60s. What 40 years of drumming didnt teach me this video has done it in 15 mins. Bravo
It’s cool bc the first tip u gave u did naturally to teach myself. Wow. Good insight! Glad I’m on the right track!
I have only been playing for a few months and this was one of the first problems I recognized that I wanted to fix straight off. I used When the Levee Breaks as a model. Thanks for the exercises, these are great! Going to practice them now.
Exact same here!
Bruh the one thing that's discouraging me to play.... And you got the right information to keep me going... Thanks man subbed and like for sure!
Only at 2:00, speechless, truely a master at work! One of my greatest source of inspiration, after Jeff that is!
Rob, you THE man!
U the reason I picked up drums again!
Much love n respect!✌👌
Chris. Agreed, Rob is the man. He makes it look so easy. Love the way he delivers the message
One of the best drummer's I know used to be one of the best guitar player I had ever heard. So go for it.
Rob, I feel like you've been watching me play drums or something 😂😂😂😂 every problem has been plauging me since I started playing, cant wait to try out these tips! Thanks for making this content, I truly appreciate your instruction and you always inspire me to learn more!
100% agree with that David! 😂
Been playing a long time Rob,but this is a great exercise regardless,if nothing else,put it in your warm-up routine.u da man!keep thumping them out man!
Easy to understand and effective! I don’t understand why a lot of other drummers make this lesson more complicated than it has to be. This is exactly what I needed.
Solid session. My 1st time with you. The examples make sense. Enjoy your approach. Watching you is more valuable to me than other teachers preaching thru an exercise. You certainly can play. The visuals are helpful. The hitting the bell in the upstroke is a good ref point for learners like me.
Looking forward to more of your insights . Thank you.
Very nice, can’t wait to try this out. Thanks for sharing this!
I have wondered about this for forty years, thanks!
I'm sure you know my wife tried to contact you on your page. She knows you are my "Drum Hero"! Dude this is not just for new drummers at all! It helps me with my recovery from my knee surgeries all day long and fits into multiple drum bounce sequences. You are the best! Thank you so many ways....... for so many people!
Appreciate this video hugely, thanks man!!!
Thanks for the tip!
I Rob, I've just stumble on your channel and man, already givin me pointers that helps alot. I'm a new drummer, beginner and I'm 59 years old. Always wanted to play drums, always been interested in this instrument but never really played one. Time, money, family etc always had things that prevented me to play but now, I can. I'm great fan of Mr.Neil Peart of Rush, who just past away recently sadly. Been praticing , air drumming for a long long time. I am just going through your videos right now. I'm french....oui oui lolll. Love the way you explain things, is clear and precise. I'm in. :)
Got the Alesis Strike on a whim last month around Christmas. Been playing guitar/bass and other stringed instruments for like 12 years, your videos have been incredibly helpful for starting off my drumming exploration!
Man, I learn more in this video that I have learned on all the other videos combined what you said about imagine hitting something on the upstroke of the hi-hat as soon as I started imagining that I got it right off man. Beautiful job. Beautiful job. Beautiful job. That's all I can say man. That analogy will spot on. Thank you so much! Great job!
Great lesson Rob. Really helps me man.
Great lesson! Imagining that I’m playing an upstroke that can be heard helps a lot! Man this is great stuff
That snare drum, awesome. Great lesson as always, Rob, thanks for all you do for the drumming community!
This has helped me so much! Thanks for the tips!
You're an absolute boss Rob, you're doing amazing work for every drummer. Thank you for the videos man!
Loved the call out! 😎 Thx for another great video for us beginners.
OMG this instantly fixed my feet and hand independence just OMG THANK YOUUUU!!! You earned a sub man!!
Thank you so much !!! This is awesome
You are the man. Thanks for these videos
Really enjoy your videos, keep 'em coming!
Sounds great thanks beat down ☝️💪❤️💯
I love your videos, Thanks!
Thank god for this video! Sooo helpful! 😄
Wow that is the single most helpful thing i've ever seen. Within about 20 seconds my drumming improved by about 5% percent.
You are the best teacher I have seen on the internet so far. Thank you.
best ever free lesson on the topic! i use melodics on vdrums it has exercises like this too, i kept repeating im getting progress, he's absolutely right repetition is patience are all you need... heck and drums of course!
That 1st exercice was so in the pocket that when the snare enters at 10'20 ... it covered the click of the metronome for the whole exercise.Beautiful.
Mannnn...Rob, you're too cool dude....when you dropped that wood block at the end of 7:30....all I could do was laugh!!! Great stuff bro!
Most valuable drum lesson on the internet for me so far. Just got my e-kit and haven’t played in 12 years and probably only played 12 hours maybe 10 times before so I’m starting over basically. I’ve been looking for a video on independence that made it click for me and just you showing your understanding of what’s happening showed me you’d have have the answer to fix it
Of all the methods I had tried before this one just made click so much faster! Thanks man!
Cool approach, Rob Brown! Thanks for sharing your expertise.
Literally did the first tip, and I mastered double off kicks in 10 mins playing for just a week prior
This video really helped me out man! The trick you used with the woodblock helped the most
thank you so much, the note above worked for me. 😄
Thx Rob! always loved percussion. 56 years old and finally giving drums a try. Your beginner are very helpful!
Same boat :-)
Thanks for that help man 👊💪👍
thanks for this! I had my FIRST drum lesson last night at 50 years old. Drum lover my entire life. My instructor was testing me to see where I was at and I got hung up precisely with this. This will be very helpful.
Love you Rob..You teach me many things...
I've always wanted to play so I recently picked up drums. At 57. My independence totally sucks. Beats and fills go pretty well, but anytime you throw in quarter rides it all goes to hell. Practice and patience! I'm picking up a lot of good tips from your videos, thanks man!
wow - I'm self taught for 23 years but this came on via autoplay. I remember being 10 years old and imagining I was hitting another hihat on the upstrokes to fix this. it worked! thanks for the nostalgia :D
This is the exact help I was looking for. Thank you
Dude, this is mind blowing. I was struggling with this today (drumming for less than a month now) and imagining hitting the phantom note in the air is working. I was using my hand as the cymbal in the air and my practice pad while doing the kick pedal pattern. I am going at this slowly but I can't wait to do some off beat funky rhythms.
Perfect demonstration here !
What perfect timing! I was just struggling with this yesterday and thinking about how to fix it. Yes, my limb independence sucks--but hey, I'm a beginning drummer so pretty much everything sucks. I love all of the "simple" drills on your channel. Have you ever thought about putting them all into a book?
Thank you so much for this Rob Brown! I just subscribed a week ago and already I can do things (because of your channel) I thought would take much longer to get. I have been teaching myself the guitar through RUclips for the last 2 years, so I know what I like in a teacher, and you are a great teacher and inspiration!
This exercise is so effective! Just count slowly, don't give up your, brain will eventually figure it out. I am a total beginner (just bought my first set a week ago at 52) and after a few hours with this exercise I can do this, not great but I can do it:). Practice Sleep Repeat!
Love your videos man
Great video and explanation. I am sure this technique will help improve my independence for sure. What a great simple way to show what is happening and how to correct it!
What a great teacher and lesson! Thank you
Another good video Rob. 👍✌️🥁
Love the vibe brother. You Rock!! Thanks for being laid back and real ;)
Thank you man! 🔥
Thank you so much Rob, this really helped me a lot.
Thank you for this. I'm a drummer of 30 years, and this is what I needed. Thank you
Thanks man helped alot
Lol when i saw the arrows on the right hand and right foot in the thumbnail, I knew I was clicking on the right video lol
This is so great! Thanks!
Subbed , and will be back for more once I get this down lol😅
This is great advice, thank you so much :) Envisioning hitting something on the upstroke was definitely a game changer
Best drum lesson ever, this unlocks a lot more than just playing bass on off beats
Thanks for giving us this little nugget.
