This is legit JOJO MAYER technique: You might be embarrassed to hear that everything the guy at 9:22 explains is legit Jojo Mayer stuff. He's setting up his kit in a way to hit the drums at a most flat angle to get best rebound and sound. (Even though Jojo tilts his snare more away from himself.) The rim click that hits also the rim of the high tom is a technique Jojo explains in a video about getting a 'clap' sound from an acoustical drum set. It's just not very well performed in the shown video. I'd love to see some upvotes on this comment so that the techniques explained at this point don't get the bad credit that they don't deserve.
Timo Heinrich thumbs up from me. I stumbled on to it when I started putting all the toms on stands for more flexibility. With them flat it was hard not to hit two rims, wrong rims, knees, etc. So I adjusted it a bit to make it consistent and use it and the rims a lot more as triggers. You can sneak in another cool sound by hitting a rack tom with the tip of a stick with your hand right above the floor tom. Focus the butt of the stick down onto the floor tom as is bounces and it makes a nice one handed flam-tap. It's kind of like holding two marimba mallets letting one hit earlier (or single stroke roll), but the front and back of the stick are the mallets.
Also the sound of the tom will be much more spread out and round when the tom is angled that way. This way the tip of the stick will hit the head more flat and use all of it's potential, giving you that round sound that lights up the whole shell. If you were to hit the tom with only the top of the tip, the sound would be more "pingy" and tense. The way this guy also describes how his toms are angled more towards him not only makes the sound of the drum more weak, but potentially hurts himself. Having the toms angled towards you can make your wrists locked in a really uncomfortable way, potentially hurting you. Also this kills a batter head faster than anything else. This video was pretty fun but this part was just stupid and uneducational by EMC.
@@wiisportss Of course the improvement in sound will especially given if you use a stick that fallows the same philosophy. The tip of the stick needs to be shaped in a way that gives you a lot of contact surface on a flat angel. Some sticks will not give you that.
I’m a 73 year old buzzard I played drums for about 30 years from night clubs as a young man and general business (weddings, class reunions, bowling banquets, Bar Mitzvahs etc.) as I got older. Can’t read music. I got by just fine. Nearly 20 years with the same 4 guys a very popular group. Self taught never got through book one. Always made more than scale and I may hold the record for eating more free stuffed chicken meals in a lifetime. I love your channel I’m just about bedridden live alone and listen to audio books, podcasts and watch RUclips videos for hours everyday. Especially this last year with COVID. You’re a remarkable percussionist and you really make me laugh. You work so hard on your videos it’s astonishing. I look forward to your videos you should have a million subscribers. And have a good morning.
greg gall (triplet guy) is actually a really great metal drummer, he just didnt know any of the correct terminologies cos he's probably self taught. maybe he shouldn't be teaching, but he's pretty damn good at what he does which is performing.
People do play that double rim click thing. The goal is to get a flam sound with it. I think it sounds bad, but people do it. I believe rdavidr has done this a bunch
I'm not a drummer but the videos other than the punk beat one hurt. I'm not even a true percussionist and I can't even find the beat to most of these, also after I heard the first triplet I wanted to click off lol
I legit just learned that the reason my doubles go from awesome to straight dogshit is because when I transition from mid-tempo to high-tempo, I'm still trying to catch the rebound with my fingers. For twenty years. Which is apparently impossible. Damnit.
I know nothing about drums (well i am starting to get some drum names and other ideas just watching), but i find your videos so fun! I was lol in the RL, along with you. My favourite reaction of yours: "Please don't". I am so glad there is a job out there for me at a place like ExpertVillage, where i could play drums for my very first time like/as an expert! Keep it up Eric, that was fun. I marvel at your standing, high velocity, non stiff drumming,. nj
10:14 Yes, it‘s a thing. So kind of. You could play the tom rim as a flam before the rim click so you get an electronic clap-like sound! But yeah, how he explained it was... Weird..
2 years late to the party, but yea, just saying "rim flam" is a better way to explain it than that guy. You also don't need your toms flat to play one, my setup is more conventional and I can do it. I suppose a flat tom would make it easier, but a rim flam certainly isn't reason alone to switch.
I just recently found your channel and I’m really glad I did. Great quality content. I’m trying out for Music City and Cavi’s soon so until then I’m gonna keep that notification bell rang and enjoy your videos!
The entire time I was imagining Eric explaining to the caption head or director of percussion about how he broke the shells of the $2000 dollar quads while doing a quint crossstick
Just when I decide to explore drumming topics on my left or right of field, like your drum line themes, you put the zoom lens on the wacky extremities!
1:35 love that stage. Red curtains, random PAR cans, biker jacket. I bet he has cologne vending machine that dispenses Brut, Hai Karate, and English Leather for $0.25 a' spray hanging from the floor tom. All it needs is Need a pole in the background to make it complete.
As a self taught intermediate metal drummer of 11 years I found those expertvillage videos highly offensive. I can't believe they would allow that weak content to even get uploaded in the first place and someone new who legitimately wants to learn this amazing instrument would honestly be doomed learning from some of these guys and without the help of a proper teacher to help them fix the simplest ingrained errors and I believe everyone should have access to quality music lessons, (like your channel) you are a great drummer man keep it up!
10:13 Definitely a thing. Check out Brazilian drummers like Edison Machado and Milton Banana. Also really popular with hip hop drummers. You have the option of a flam sound elsewhere on the kit. Why not on the rims?
The double rimshot is something Chris Dave does to get a handclap style sound by “flamming” between the two rims. Ive seen maybe 3-4 other professional drummers utilize that concept. Definitely gonna have to try that reverse drumset traditional grip. 😂
10:25 Kit drummer here - what I know as rimshots are where you hit the head and the rim of the drum - just hitting the rim of the drum like you're doing I've always heard being called cross-stick (because you lay the stick across the drum)
Eric I just want to say how much I love your videos, I play tenors for my marching band and we honestly aren’t very good but anyway I bust out laughing every time I watch your videos so thanks dude. I’d love to chat sometime let me know if you’d like to!
I can't believe I am just finding this video. My brain hurt watching those "lessons". "Expert" village? Face:palm. Take out the "lessons" and this video is epic. Semper Fidelis brother.
Idk why people think they know everything in drumline. Drumline isn't just wacking drums and hitting the drums loud. There is a lot of technique and form when it comes to drumline, different drum shapes, totally different tunings for drums, and larger sticks. And of course never be stiff. I have been a section leader for 2 years for my high school drumline and even though I don't know everything about drumming, I know enough to teach my fellow students correctly.
I subscribed because you have a poster of The Brave Little Toaster in the background. “The Master never played triplets with Expert Village.” “Coz they’re stuck in a wall!”
6:30 Ngl I had to Explain a group of people in my gym class what drumline was the MPA(Since im from Minnesota its the Minnesota Percussion Association) and WGI and other drumline events. Ngl it hurt me so much to explain 1)A Paradiddle 2) Choreography 3) Scoring 4) stick handling 5) what dynamics are, what crescendo and decrescendo is 6) Why battery has sticks taped and last but not least 7) Costumes
Eric, you have obviously never heard of the quadruple cross stick. I'm offended.
Didn’t expect to see you here
Finally. Someone gets it.
Wow, strange seeing you here dave
I was about to mention you haha
Barry B Benson I didn’t expect to see you here either
Can we get the music for "Tendonitis: in 30 seconds or less?"
Justin Jones oh darn
HAHAHAH! for real!
That one is a winner!

Drummer: "Notice I'm playing the hi-hat slightly open"
Eric: "Oh I noticed"
Right
Kowalski analysis moment
Lol I couldn’t stop laughing at that!
Ok... 4:47 it's possible that the paper is there to muffle the snare... It's not likely, but it's possible
i find it hard to believe that guy is smart enough to know what muffling the snare even is
DragonEyeZak you know he plays in the marine band right
@@JonCorrieri I think @DragonEyeZak means the guy who's playing the drum in the video - not Eric....
James Thatcher yeah that’s my bad. I didn’t really read it correctly haha

Can you do a crash course guide over tenor playing like so he can see

Most of these are alright. The only people ever whining about them is just for snob reasons.
@@kishascapeI mean, I’m an instructor myself and I try to make sure everyone hears correct terminology
He’s not a great drummer if he doesn’t what a damn triplet is
People do play that double rim click thing. The goal is to get a flam sound with it. I think it sounds bad, but people do it. I believe rdavidr has done this a bunch
Jojo Meyer does that
Double rim click sounds good for swingy r&b
Doesn't have to sound bad at all. 😁
James Gadson did it with Bill Withers. Can’t be all wrong🤟
As a drummer, those videos *HURT*
I'm not a drummer but the videos other than the punk beat one hurt. I'm not even a true percussionist and I can't even find the beat to most of these, also after I heard the first triplet I wanted to click off lol
Ikr
As a brass player, this video he watched hurt me
I’m a clarinet and it hurt
WE GOT A DRUMMER OVER HERE GUYS
I was seriously starting to tear up from laughing so hard at the second video 😂
I got such a laugh out of this. Never dabbled in drum line, the rhythms you interspersed in between were so good!
tendonitis in thirty seconds or less lmfao
That one and where he puts his camera in the HI Hat killed me lmao
I didn’t know at 3:46 that Shaggy from Scooby Doo would try to ‘play’ the drums.
I legit just learned that the reason my doubles go from awesome to straight dogshit is because when I transition from mid-tempo to high-tempo, I'm still trying to catch the rebound with my fingers. For twenty years. Which is apparently impossible. Damnit.
Bro it's Stevie t but for drums
Except i can actually finish this video
koshy bear idk this guy is cringy in a funny way but Stevie T is just cringy
Emc: drums
Jared dines: rythm guitar/vocals
Stevie t: lead guitar
Davie504: *bass*
@@dal_21 stevie t is actually a professional triangulest
Cuntoss Mcgee omg it is
"Mom, can I have triplets at home?'
"We already have triplets at home."
Triplets at home:
It was over the moment he said “right left right, right left right”
This video made me subscribe. I like how you exposed the bad video tutorials and then educated with humour. Good stuff.
I'm glad you have the little clips of you playing in between because wholey ravioli there is a difference!
I love those little intermissions when he uses the quads as like a commercial break
I'm a flat tommer myself, I like small sized toms over the bassdrum as well.
I like flat toms too but I just use a single rack tom mounted on one of my cymbals and then 2 floor toms

Thank goodness for resources like Drumeo and EMC. These videos made me cry
bruh when emc becomes a roast channel
i love it
TwoSet but for marching and shit lol
At the beginning I was like "Damn Stevie T has changed"
I thought it was Stevie T too
I can’t stop laughing over 6:57 😂
Imagine going to a restaurant and there is a band playing, so you look over at the drum set and see this: 10:39
This is my new favorite channel and RUclipsr. It’s like an endless sequel to Napoleon Dynamite after 20 years of waiting.
Love the content man! I stumbled across your boot camp video and can’t get enough
I just recently found your channel and I’m really glad I did. Great quality content. I’m trying out for Music City and Cavi’s soon so until then I’m gonna keep that notification bell rang and enjoy your videos!
One of your funnier videos for sure. Was great to watch on for my birthday
DUDE your my fav channel
10:08 Yes, man is a "thing" that is used for tipe of color in drumming, is a sort of a flammed side stick.
Anyway you are Amazing 🔥
This was so funny to watch! Nice vid!!!
The guys talking about drum set up tips taught me for 3 years dudes a genius
10:40 Okay I'm getting anxiety... please don't fall or I might have a panic attack
The entire time I was imagining Eric explaining to the caption head or director of percussion about how he broke the shells of the $2000 dollar quads while doing a quint crossstick
I'm a beginner drummer and this video boosted my confidence by a lot. I think im gonna apply for the drumming spot in dream theatre.
This is me and my my friends messing around in music class in a nutshell
I play trumpet, and even I knew that traditional was backwards lol
That was my fave part!
I play snare drum in marching band and it made me wanna kms
this man does the most for his videos and I love it.
could you imagine a staff sgt waling in at 10:40
This should be called, “Roasting the Hell out of Drumming Tutorials”
in my opinion, this is the best video you made! all of your vids are great but this one is my fave🤣🥁
I've been waiting for a video like this for a looooooooooong time
This is the best video I’ve seen on a long time. Great work!

Can you do a "how to play quads for snares" or for basses and set players. That would be awesome.
10:13 Definitely a thing. Check out Brazilian drummers like Edison Machado and Milton Banana. Also really popular with hip hop drummers. You have the option of a flam sound elsewhere on the kit. Why not on the rims?

Props for finding an assortment of items, placing them to appear dirty and then cleaning it up for a single point. Lol
I've actually definitely done a rim hit with both the snare and small tom rim. Works well! Depending on the music context
I love at 5:00 when the "hip-hop" drum lesson suddenly turns into the outro of the drum solo from Step Brothers 😂😂😭😭
Dude your random little licks give me life
“Tendinitis In 30 Seconds Or Less” is easily the best title to a drum solo I’ve ever seen!!!

The double rim is sound effect used in electronic music. I've seen videos of Jojo Mayer utilizing and demonstrating why he does it.
This.

Jojo Mayer uses a double rim click in some songs, from mounted tom to snare. He gets kind of a "raking" sound from it.
the fact that at 13:21 he sais ill live the link in the description exactly on the beat is so sattisfying ahaha
