why are snares playing matched grip? normally it doesnt matter to me what grip they use but its just that im use to seeing them using traditional grip
matched = win! and makes perfect sense if u think about it. and i love the outkast groove in there. SCV! literally the hippest and imo best shows in the lot.
its just a grip! it shouldnt affect anyones views and opinions if there was no video youd never know. A lot of people look down at this line for playing matched but it wasnt the grip that held them back they just didnt execute as well as usual.
@Presonance i've been saying this for years!! it is the exact same parts as in "Spread". The bass part, tenors, and snares, its all there lol. My line played it in high school and we used to put spread on to play with it. Exact!!
@Presonance apparently you have no idea what I'm talking about. nothing is ever specifically taken from something else unless it's stated that that's what happened. electric wheelchair wasn't the first groove to have THAT specific beat; it's been around for ages. many others are like this as well
@thisstinks92 It seems as though you think I'm criticizing Murray for "stealing" musical ideas. I'm not. Maybe that's how the thinking goes in the popular music that you listen to, but in the percussion world, it's not stealing, it's a tribute or simply a borrowing of ideas -- explicitly attributed or not.
Regarding Double Beat 2004, I'm guessing you've never listened to the Steve Reich remix or Outkast tune, and never played this in a real line and seen the sheet music. Am I right?
Honestly on a drum with no tilt i really think matched grip sounds more even. That is why a lot of lines tilt the snares for traditional. the tilt is made to fit your left hand traditional grip. Thats why the old army drums tilted them and played traditional.
the tilted drum didn't come from traditional grip.
traditional grip came from the tilted drum. they didn't have carriers and stuff waaay back in like the war of 1812. so they had to figure out a way to play a tilted drum because it had a strap.
also, evenness of sound depends on technique and stick pitch.
snaredrumming wasn't invented in the US. The traditional grip was developed long long long before your civil war, somewhere in the 15th century I believe, in Switzerland.
i never said snare drumming was invented in the US. I'm sure the traditional grip was developed way before 1812 or 1776, plus the civil war was in 1865 or 7 ish. I was just saying that's where it came from, the strap. that was just an example of where they used it.
The traditional grip comes from the days of the revolutionary war when the drum was on a sling and rested on the left leg. The grip was a means to an end.
well, thats true i guess, it might sound different for him personally, i mean ive been switched so much im used to both, but i remember my first time switching from traditional back to matched after about a year, and it felt so alien i kept screwing up dynamic, and all other aspects. but eh, then again im no where neeeear as good as the SCV. :D
its not the fact that matched grip looks so ugly, its the fact that we all know they practiced their asses off in matched but if they did the same in traditional [which they all are probably really good at] it would sound exactly the same. which ever grip you choose doesnt mean it sounds better thats a mattter of opinion.
our snare line this year might switch to matched grip. its completely new line next cause we had an all senior line thats graduating. if we do use traditional again then were tilting our drums. also our snareline was reduced to 3 from 5.
Ive heard its only a one year deal like they do it every 4 years so that everyone can like graduate from the line with doing both traditional and match. In this case I thnk their doing it this year. We'll see.
That'd be so retarted... I don't know what it is, but there's something about when I see snares playing matched grip that pisses me off... I don't really know why it bothers me either, cause I'm not a snare, I'm a tenor player. Still though It's kind of stupid. Snare players should play tradish. Period.
You ARE a moron. WERE HAVE YOU MARCHED IM SURE NO WERE MORON!!! Matched is GREAT! They play this stuff so FAST you Play this and see how good of quality you have im sure it sucks
Excuse me? First of all, this video was filmed in 05, so they're over the whole MATCHED GRIP bullshit. Second I didn't say that they didn't play good. I said I didn't like matched grip. They played clean, with good technique, dynamics, and quality of sound, and all you're concerned about is how "FAST" they were? Sounds to me like YOU'RE the moron here. By the way, you're a fucking idiot who uses the fact that I don't like matched grip to defend your ignorant assumption of my ensemble experiences
well im pretty sure that there was no reason to it. although i do remember that some guy said murray thinks drummers should be strong in both styles so that might be it
murray gusseck says in his blog that he was trying to get the same sound from both sticks playing traditional so he just had the snares play matched. no tradition or anything, just his personal preference for that year
two things I don't like...snares are too low...if you are gonna play matched, keep the drum at the same level, just change the grip...and I hate seeing the snare and tenor mix...it's not really appealing to see and I don't think it changes the quality of the sound that much...
yeah if you listen to his reasoning for everything, its so you can see how your sound fits in to the overall picture.....and having the drums low and angled that way is the most ergonomic way to play with matched
is the music written anywhere? I'm taking a gamble on that question because I thought that the Cavaliers' Latin Lover wasn't written down then I found it later. lol
They play matched cause Murray's theory is you have to be able to play matched before you can go to traditional. I took private lessons from him. The guys a beast
Alright, i know some of the snare players are short, but they need to RAISE those stands!!! it just doesnt look very appealing visually and the matched grip doesnt help either.
Im an SCV fan and i think the sound is incredible here, but comeon guys...
SCV double beat is so fuckin cool! who would of ever thought that a diddle exercise could be so cool!!!!! way to go Murry Gusseck! Great job drummers of Santa Clara!
Gusseck was there before and they played traditional. "I guess I just didn't want to spend as much time trying to get the same sound out of the left hand." - Gusseck on a lot patrol interview.
Umm im gonna have to completely disagree. Possibly they were going for something different and Matched is deffinately more efficient of a style and theres a more even sound .
Arguing on a thread about DCI drumlines is kind of like jumping off a cliff-you think it's a good idea until you wisen up halfway down, and by then your whole credibility goes splat.
2 JesOnTheRun:Y don't you go watch those videos then Mr. Smarty pants, doubt you could play like them anyways, you're probably just a Ree Ree.
@ the video: I like SCV and I think Murray had a good idea using matched but that's just me.
2 everyone: SCV was still a good corps and they did it to help with tone between hands plus it was a while ago so WAH. I bet none of you has more experience with a drumline than Murray so I think you should just chill. :-D Leave the line to him.
Dude, how old are you? Your prose is that of a 15 yr old teenage child. 1.)dont worry about what I do, as I enjoy freedom of expression, I do as I please. 2.)No Murray doesnt have more experience than I, his first year of corp was my 5th, I aged out 2 years before he did. 3.) No one is dissing Murray, I actually know the man, you dont.
YEAH YOU KNOW HIM!!!! You remind me of this guy...he's 18 and he's acts like he's big stuff when he's not. You're kinda funny. Have a nice day moron.
yeah, okay...dumbass, i met murray when he was marching under scott johnson at SCV...scotty taught me, we hung on tour, being that i was teaching another line,duh...its a small world in dci, but you wouldnt know. You are too busy being old, wrinkled, middle aged loser who cant seem to construct a legible, comprehensive sentence. Like I give two shits what someone like YOU thinks. LOL. Dude, get a life and get a grip.
@JessOnTheRun if youre really as old as you say you are then LOL WTF LOSER. someone thats as old or older then a genius like murray shouldnt be immature enough to argue like that, hahahaha. so therefore you are the loser.
@gothdrummer7: you are bringing up something from 2 years ago? LOL.... dude, get a life... just because I embarrassingly slapped you with ownage, you are still walking around bitter? What a dumbass... no wonder women laugh at you and you cant get laid.... "goth drummer" buwhahahahaha.... "goth" is fucking nerd and is 20 years out of date... get with the program hick
ya know at least the Vanguard Drumline over the years has had the courage to try new things, see how they work and roll with the result, no matter what it is. In addition, playing matched in the snareline was a staple that made them who they are......my instructor marched '81, '84 and played both matched and traditional at Santa Clara, so really its whatever the caption head wants to do and if that doesnt work they find something that does, so just deal with it
If I had a nickel for every mega pixel this video has, I'd have one nickel.

wasnt the reason why they stopped playing double beat was because they got a new instructor right?

Not too into the match grip snare thing, but they were still bad ass like they are every year.

If this was '06, I don't believe SVC marched match that year. I think, that grip is just for that warm-down.......

it was 05, we didnt change grip to warm-down....why warmdown? trad means higher snares and very awkward match grip

WHY OH WHY ARE YOU PLAYING MATCH???? Atleast Gusseck was smart enough to switch back to Trad in '06

this is a cadence written by Gussek called "Double Beat", and that was the Second version with the two tenor breaks.

ya know at least the Vanguard Drumline over the years has had the courage to try new things, see how they work and roll with the result, no matter what it is. In addition, playing matched in the snareline was a staple that made them who they are......my instructor marched '81, '84 and played both matched and traditional at Santa Clara, so really its whatever the caption head wants to do and if that doesnt work they find something that does, so just deal with it
