Cannot be understated how good your left hand has to be to play this pattern at that speed.

fuzzylogiceire Just let it bounce! Nothing too insane about it, it's more about finesse than raw speed.

Holy crap. Todd is starting to become my favorite drummer. He's SO versatile! It's ridiculous. He can play anything from Jazz to Metal. He's got some good hands, too. I'm not one for drumming dvd's, but I feel like this one could end up being the first one I purchase for myself.

Styx - one of my all time favorite bands! Todd one of my all time favorite drummers! You threw me a stick at the end of your show in Billings Montana many years ago. You've inspired me for years. Thanks!!!

Really useful rhythm! I learned the same thing from Gary Chaffee back in the early 80s. He just approaches it from the snare and bass drum pattern and then you layer the 15 different cymbal ostinati on the ride hand and hi hat foot. Great to see Todd improvising freely and stretching out the pattern - very important to put it into context otherwise you just have "a lick". Great stuff!

Sorry for my brazillian friend here...Todd is not there to teach us baião, but to teach ghost notes in musical contexts. The pattern was a "Baião like" and is really right to say so. People just dont get it and always have to say bad things when they see a guy that master something. Learn from what he have to say, that are pretty much a lot of stuff, and the world will be a better place...

Hi Esdras- This is a fusion groove I heard on a record in 1977. I'd like to clarify that this is not a brazilian groove, or a brazilian anything. I just mentioned that the bass drum pattern (so people could learn it) was that particular rhythm. I'm sure you're a talented player and would like to hear you sometime, but I'm afraid you took this out of context. Thanks. TS

@briang6040 6 жыл бұрын

Todd Sucherman Hey Todd. Something I've been doing with it. Example; The first basic way you're showing this, with the bar phrasing at the bottom of the screen, I like to do a paradiddle thing on the bell right before hitting that accent on the snare on beat 4. I hope I explained that correctly. So right before the snare hit on 4, I'm playing two bell hits, giving it a paradiddle feel. Again, I hope I explained it right.

@mortenic It sounds killer at this speed-just speed up & catch up. The groove is smooth as butter! The whole idea is to keep the same groove at different tempos without making it choppy...like he just did. Now don't be jealous! lol Just messing with you on the "jealous" part.

I am sure that if he wanted to hit in center of the snare he would. You don't get to this level without knowing how to play almost anything you want, and in any way you want. Did you ever think that just maybe he didn't want to hit in the center for effect???????????
