Two things confused me greatly as a young fledgeling dci fan/snare drummer back a number of years ago: 1) I hadn't yet grasped that sometimes music changes as a season goes on and that there are two versions of the snare break featured in this video; the earlier season one that Matt teaches us, and the finals version also heard here in the example footages, so that confused me like "what huh how come it's different sometimes???" and 2) when he said "That's our snarebreak in Summer of 77," I didn't realize that the piece they were playing in that part of their show was called "Summer of 77" and I thought that he was teaching us the BD snare break from 1977, but then why does the footage of the line playing it look so recent. I know now the error of my thinking, and realize I might have been stupid, but still funny to recall.

I almost had it down, then he started playing

Imagine wacking your hand on that last rimshot.

Lol, great video but the reference videos they use often have two different versions of the same lick. Probably an earlier season lick and a revised lick later in the summer.

FloMarching break it down before FloMarching break it down.

You guys should do more videos like this! Its cool to see how they progressed throughout the season and its also cool to learn some stuff ;)

Matt keown been years since I play with him on his day drumcamp on 2004

0:13 description of every bd snare break 🗿

awesome! i can always pick up something way quicker watching it a bar at a time like that rather than purely reading it

You kids are so spoiled with awesome resources like this. Growing up we had to be lucky to meet talented drummers.

Summer '20 - blown away. What was Matt's nickname while center snare at BD? The Terminator ?? Dude is nails!

Anyone have the transcription the one he's playing and not the one on snare science?

They’re so damn good

oh my god that's clean

this break made me pregnant

insane

Approaching the finals, they took out the isolated cheese four. More than likely because it was too hard to clean, and you get the same rhythmic affect by just doing two isolated diddles. Definitely challenging. But challenging is always what wins. Nor is it always what sounds best

those snares ringggg

are there sheets for this?

Lol Missed the rim shot at the end lol it kinda ruined the effect of him playing such an insanely hard passage. But this guy totally played it off :)

notice later they take out the buzz taps

Hello, how are you. I'm from Brazil and wanted to know how to study snare drum, how old is it usually started, how many hours a day, is there a method of study, a score, the person doing private lessons and how many years studying to reach that level, playing well?

wish he coulda gone slower

any way i can find the tennor part

Does anyone have the video from 0:56

I learned it and transcribed it

what year was this?

What year is this

Idk how to read notes but i know what he is playing

The guys on the ends are dragging their rolls

0:11 dirty rimshot?

"So clean" I said that like 8 times

Riiiiing

He shows it with buzzes in the 2nd-3rd measure but at the end they show it with changes.. hmm 🤔

He passed away. RIP

spelling is rehearsal not rehersal LOL

Can some please Transcribe thisss

What are "tap fives".

How much indiscriminate and rampant banging goes on every Summer in DCI?!

some notation would be killer

wow their drum break are boring as hell. clean as hell, but it's literally just diddle with a couple flams and 2 buzzes.
