As a self taught drummer I found it bizarre how you can take the exact same beat or rythm start it on a different beat and suddenly have to slow it down and retrain your brain to accept it. When I started working triplets I would always start on beat one until one day I started the triplet on 4 and a half, what a difference. There is much simplicity in what sounds complex once you get your brain wrapped around it. Your videos are outstanding and Im gonna donate to you because you’re not holding vital information hostage. Now my only problem is not trying to take on 5 videos at one time.

Incredible playing, production value and content. I do wish there was a little more insight into how to do some of these difficult exercises -- ie "start slow, count in your head, like this ..." and then show us that, rather than just stating what the exercise is, and then posting a perfect example at a blistering tempo that few mortals that are trying to learn this stuff can achieve. I LOVE Robbies videos, but I'm finding that they do more to impress me about his skills than to elevate my own. Like the chess Grandmaster calling out " .... and obviously, that's mate in 7..." We (sorry- I) need a little more handholding along the way.
@RobbieBarnby3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the nice words and for checking out the video. The purpose of this one was to show the different placements which I like to put the click of the metronome on in order to practise the responsibility of keeping the time. These exercises are definitely extremely difficult however there is no easy way to start out feeling this stuff other then gradually taking it through the different levels of difficulty (4 clicks per bar, 2 clicks per, 1 click per bar etc). I certainly do count in my head as I lock into the tempo before playing but there is only one way to count, so I didn't have anything to add there (it's just tough and takes a lot of practice, repetition and dedication). To begin with, I recommend playing something which you can play effortlessly so that you can put all your focus on locking in with the tempo. The clicks of the metronome (whatever placement you choose it to be on) is purely a reference and not something to rely on. This is what forces us to have the responsibility of the time and practises our sense of the rhythmic grid. The examples/improvisations which I played are exactly that to me. But it doesn't really matter what I play because if we put the click on beat 2, it will fall on beat 2 regardless of what is played. Some of the examples definitely had fast tempos but with this kind of metronome practice, it's actually much easier to do at a faster tempo than a slower tempo. For example, playing at 300bpm with the click falling on beat 2 every 2 bars is much easier then playing at 60bpm with the click falling on beat 2 every 2 bars.. Not easier in regards to the technique/speed execution, but easier because there is less empty space which we need to be responsible for within the rhythmic grid.. and as this is our focus when practising this specific concept, the real challenge would be doing this stuff at a much slower tempo. I should say that my videos are there to share the things I've worked on as well as the concepts I've been exposed to which I've then spent time developing for myself, plus, sharing this stuff also gives me a reason to improve on them further. It's up to you to find a way to take these concepts, work them out, and use them to improve your own skills. It's definitely advanced stuff which requires certain prerequisite material to get a grasp of and therefore, it's hard to cater to every viewer as everyone has a different level of experience. I just try to do my best to create a detailed overview and I just hope it inspires someone to want to work on these fun musical ideas. If you do need some extra guidance then feel free to drop me an email. I truly get so much joy from sharing these ideas to other likeminded musicians who have an interest in this stuff and I love to help in any way I can. I'm also in the process of transcribing everything I played in the video with the click placements written alongside the notation/tab. It may help to feel where the beats are if you see the examples written out (especially for some of the polyrhythmic metric modulation examples I attempt to do later in the video). The pdf's will be available on my Patreon page. I hope this expresses the fact that I just want to share some cool stuff which I love to practise. I really appreciate you following the channel and I look forward to making many more videos!

Although traditional it's been "fusionned" With jazz and one of the great pianist to check out is Meddy Gerville. I should mention Danyel Waro too for traditional stuff. One of the greatest there is.... Unbelievable music and who puts challenges in your rhythmic feel so to speak

Very good video editing and very beautiful images. The technique and knowledge are perfectly mastered. The "next level" use of the metronome reminds me of the work of a drummer. Despite everything, I continue to think that the best learning of the tempo and the development of its quality can be learned through contact with a great musician, the metronome will remain a tool that cannot teach us by impregnation. The impregnation, the physical sensation of the tempo, is learned by playing with experienced musicians. Thks for posting, nice work !

The easiest way I think is to just practice with a metronome at the lowest tempo you possibly can. And keep lowering it. I started at 55, now I am at 30. It has helped me a lot to feel the rhythm. About after an hour of practice I can fit in almost any time signature between the beats. The only problem is I can't explain it... even to myself.
