This is pretty wild.. watching you play herta's you would think you had decades worth of drumming chops... until i started paying attention to your hihat/snare work. :P Don't misunderstand me, this is awesome.. it's also a trip and a half seeing someone learn the drums in the complete opposite way your "supposed" to do it. Even experienced professional drummers can't play that kick pattern as tight, if at all.. so tons of kudos.

@@pitchatan hahaha bullseye mate. Complete opposite way that you are supposed to. there’s no better way of putting it. One part of this crazy project is just a "proof of concept". There are infinitely many way to reach a goal. And the path i have chosen seems to be very lonely. And thats not a bad thing, it suits me well. thanks for pointing out the weakest link. that is helpful to me. I might be at a point where it makes sense to focus intensely on stick exercises for a couple of months. However i have also noticed that it is extremely important to keep practising the hertas daily just to stay at the current level. if you dont use it you lose it, and 230 bpm hertas is something that seems to be very easy to loose.
Hertas is very much a technique thing, you can force normal double kicks and somewhat rely on muscle memory. Even Tomas Haake now has issues playing hertas to that extent as he changed his technique and kick setup (which is why they do not play bleed all that often anymore). Rudiments are a good thing to practice, in your case i thinks more down to limb independence as you seem to have some troubles keeping that 4/4 hihat going while timing the snare at times. This obviously affects everything else as well, surprisingly your feet keep going though! I ran into the same issues when i was drumming years ago, though in my case it was attempting to keep doubles on kick (or fast-ish double kicks) and timing the snare correctly while the hi-hat is going. What improved it for me was playing some slower stuff to a metronome, so low tempo (e.g 100ish bpm or lower) 4/4 8th note kicks and 4th note snares etc and just keep a simple pattern on the kick. When that started feeling comfortable i added in ghost notes and what not, and later on went a bit faster. Faster stuff automagically got better as a result.
My dude, if you can even begin to play this, I don't think you count as a beginner anymore. You're way past me, and the most intricate thing I can play is Our Apologies by Mushroomhead. And that's a struggle. I couldn't even hope to play Bleed.

If that is the case, I might be the only [somewhat experienced/not beginner drummer] out there that does not know how to play a single song yet 🤣🤣 I have only practised Bleed for these years since I started and since I can't play that one 100% that means I don't know any song at all haha. As long as your song portfolio is greater than >1 song I think you are still past me mate ;) Appreciate the feedback. I am very interested in seeing how much of the knowledge I gained with Bleed that will translate to other songs. I also think I might be ready to translate to acoustic drums. I have only played the pads until now. One option could be to buy a snare drum for example and convert the kit one drum at a time. No need to buy a whole kit all at once. A "Hybrid kit" could be fun too. I think that the kick would probably see the most benefit, because my TD-20KX only uses the simple kick pad and it doesn't feel natural.

Amazing! Will be following this series
Cheers mate! Progress is slow but the direction is what matters. Not the velocity =)
i respect ur work ethic i took on a similar feat in classical guitar
@@TalesofGore337 ✊ respect
Incremental improvement is key
