[@ethans-d6105]

he learned how to play it a little slower from Emmanuel Deleon

[@zach.a.fields]

This comment deserves all the likes

[@paulplaysstuff6696]

"let me play it a bit slower" he said

[@bruh-ez4wo]

SuntannedFish9 agreed

[@AComplexMex]

Dang, this school has an amazing drummer and a wicked basketball team

[@benjaminwaddill1625]

Lol so true

[@birthgravy]

Okay its honestly really unnerving how crazy good they are for a high school.

[@TopDrumCorps]

neberyx it’s because they have such good staff and they play together as a line for the entire year, there is no off season. Plus they even do marching percussion at the middle schools, it’s ALL THEY DO unlike some other high schools which mix in concert season.

[@abortionmisfortune5039]

Sounds like my Starbucks order

[@cxzmyc]

Abortion Misfortune underrated comment

[@Queeze101]

Something I can actually learn quickly and play well. . . a high school book. I'm sad, now.

[@gavin_bigred]

Hey no dig on you. These kids are at the top of their game.

[@icedcubes4029]

yeah i think ill just quit now

[@Chazahc18]

Just keep practicing😎

[@zookie3469]

Go, Jason! His father was my College Drumline TA.

[@1whoDoesSimply]

I just barely qualified for my local DCA's snareline.
These high school kids are several lightyears ahead of me.
Why do i even bother.

[@jakewithonions]

Something in the California water

[@Prof.CheeseDog]

Doing DCA will make you a much better drummer. Chris drummer marched Alliance once upon a time!

[@mikel7505]

What DCA corps?

[@nathanielabadilla7029]

Not even! Practice your basics and listen closely to your sound for a consistent amount of time and you'll be right where these guys are! Chino Hills and many other groups play things well, but that's because they practiced hard enough to make each note have quality, even when the notes on paper are easy!

[@marcusgriess9264]

Because drumming is fun man

[@johnnydasuper]

This break is really nice

[@SALEENS7GTR5]

well
ok. that was sick

[@503music6]

It’s amazing what these high schoolers are taught to play, def better than other hs lines

[@seocster7677]

0:22 Battery *captian*

[@Chazahc18]

Lol🤣

[@IanCannonPiano]

He seemed a little nervous

[@warrenbraswell9785]

As of today, 6 people just didn't have the chops. Great video and great hands!

[@Dylan_T_]

God damn this was amazing. Will there be any more tenor breakdowns coming any time soon?

[@FloMarching]

We'll try to get some at finals!

[@SeanLaMontagne]

I need to see their middle school percussion curriculum

[@JonathanC199]

Me: attempts to play this even tho I can’t play a flam 😂😂

[@francodandan5989]

Good sound quality

[@brod_drumz]

Dope

[@SabianCarthen]

Hebron break it down going up here soon?

[@striker_1120]

Aye Aye captain

[@Tetrahedr0l]

Need a new one for the new ending

[@axel_fagerberg]

This is insanely high level for a high school!

[@johnnydasuper]

This sounds a tiny bit similar to the pulse percussion snare solo

[@brothaNblue]

I mean they were written by the same dude.

[@d0nk_]

I can play it at like 90% that tempo but when I try too keep up with you guys I sound sloppy as hell

[@joef545]

Hello I’ve been drumming for a while now and I have still not figured out what the purpose of the 3 above the music is like in the first bar for example. I’ve seen a three and a nine above music before but I still do not understand how to apply that. If anybody could provide a deep description of how that makes a difference and how to apply that to music it would be greatly appreciated!

[@sergiosrandomco.362]

SDJMalik explained it in a recent vid of his

[@braydinjones6301]

Joe F Hey if you still haven’t figured it out. The 3 is an abbreviation for 3 notes in the space of 2. In this case, it means 3 quarter notes in the space of two, because the bar is 4/4 and there are two 3’s within the bar. When you put eighth note triplets on one quarter note triplet partial that makes a 9 let speed. So you could rewrite that bar as dotted quarter, dotted quarter, 3 sixteenth notes, dotted quarter, 3 sixteenth notes, 3 sixteenth notes. Of course you’d get rid of those 3 brackets and put a nine bracket over top of everything.

[@stevenhatcher9133]

In the first bar, you just fit three notes evenly in the space of that last quarter note triplet

[@gusdontbe_9930]

What sticks are those?

[@travislebleu6443]

Spelled captain wrong nice

[@aditpatel9444]

What’s the tempo

[@ethannaquin3409]

AditPatel fast

[@evanmnichproductions]

I think 180?

[@myster__e]

“Three ninelets” plays a single nine consisting of three threes.-. 0:54

[@calvinswaney3452]

“3 quarter note triplets” you mean one quarter note triplet

[@Systemblue7]

When you know you sounded good 1:36 “Mm.” Lol

[@isaacbarton5432]

I can kinda play it at the slower tempo he did

[@Xen0nnnn]

What grade is he in??

[@jamalmgambo8065]

Logan Vaughn he’s a senior

[@peeairborne3740]

This is a fucking High School.

[@lucscott3631]

Imagine having a percussion instructor at your school

[@SeanLaMontagne]

This goes beyond just having a percussionist there.
This having very well structured lesson plans from day one of middle school, all the easy through high school.
You couldn't get a line to do this in a couple of years. You need a handful of years to build a band and percussion culture that can do this

[@lucscott3631]

@@SeanLaMontagne lmao. We don’t have any of that. I’m creating it though

[@WILLDRUMMER]

It really don’t look too hard

[@josiah.deehavard4555]

Plays the song at 120. Him "now here it is a little bit slower" plays it at 119.

[@CrowT]

This is a high school?😂

[@thanosmaster-abel559]

I feel like chino hills only got attention because of Melo and the brothers

[@CamsterOG]

Abel Aguirre you sir are completely wrong

[@brothaNblue]

Yeah the fact that they haven't gotten lower than 2nd place since 2012 has nothing to do with it.

[@Icyysenpaiii]

You're funny lmao

[@thanosmaster-abel559]

I’ve only heard of their drum line literally after melo got attention, and I got recommend videos by their drum line right around melo was blowing up hence why I feel like it, but I see now that I’m wrong

[@brothaNblue]

@@thanosmaster-abel559 Who is Melo?

[@84m30]

Rotating the drum on the stand? Gross

[@toadsterstrudel1365]

NP2 NPC3 actually, you’re both wrong because it literally doesn’t matter. The instructor probably wants the students to get more reaction out of both hands and therefore enables the left as much as possible. However flat drums obviously works just fine. Championships are never lost because of flat drums after all.

[@CamxCam.]

@NP2 NPC3
You must cringe often.
I prefer it when the drummists play matched on tilted snares upside down.

[@cargoshorts731]

@@CamxCam. "Why does my head keep breaking when I hit shot??????"

[@Theduffman4333]

this is almost utterly useless without a met or something for the tempo. There are hardly any duple figures for reference.

[@jasonmatson5465]

TheVagrant it’s all quarter-note-triplet based if that helps.

[@Tetrahedr0l]

Pretty sure we did it at 186

[@facitenonvictimarum174]

All of your other comments are as negative as this one. Jealousy does that to people.

[@SeanLaMontagne]

There's a met at the end of the video
