Drum Lesson 43 (Double Bass With One Foot) Slide Technique

[iDrum2Cum]

Thx. What pedals?

[FRIESENZA]

Your springs are really loose and your footboard height seems fairly low. Would you say this is more beneficial? I think my footboard height is def too high to do this fast :s

[SuperRandomizer2000]

@lalamike25 You don't actually hit with your heel when you do a heel-toe it's really only there for consistency and just a little power on the first stroke

[SuperMagicDrums]

Your eye change the colour o.O?!?!?!

[lalamike25]

@pray4plagues100 heel-toe is you catch the pedal hit with your toe after a hit with the heel. You bounce off the ball of your toe and hit with your heel. It kind of seems like a combo of heel-up and heel-down but I'm just an amateur drummer looking at videos for help but that's what (and correct me if I'm wrong) it is

[kewguy92]

Great stuff man. This helps alot.

[MatthewsPercussion]

You're too fucking good.

[aznyoungbo]

question, is your pedal loose? Is that how you're able to do that?

[Metalhead10111]

I can't even do it that fast with a double...

[blackarrowrock]

i can't do this technique Mr Spikey because when i play drum ,i don't put my feet on shoes ... so if i do this technique then my toe would hit the shark tail :(

[Therysinx]

@blackarrowrock i play with shoes off sometimes. I can still do it even with the toe stopper.

[Jamiebirchh]

2:43 Chill out drum beat activated...

[zaxterarm]

can you tell me what is the brand of your kick drum?

[NoSoupForYou83]

Nice, thanks man. Great tips

[blair096]

Thanks man good info...

[DEATHMETALFANN]

I love how people criticize the dislikers =)

[kewlrobbie]

which is more convenient????the slide or the heel toe??

[TheBandRicochet]

2:15 That's what my bed room sounds like at night. And trust me, I'm not alone.

[bnikolab]

@TheBandRicochet You and your friend Imaginario. Right?

[awiltwitt]

please follow my twitter @awiltwitt lets talk about drums and drums only

[stefstuf2]

Whenever I try to do this, my shoe grips too much to the pedal. Is this because I'm putting too much pressure on, or because I have super grippy shoes? lol. Should I try it in socks?

[E4GL3TV]

tHANK YOU!!! =D

[GAJMx26]

Thats so crazy... do you moved the pedal the black thing that hit the bass for better sound? sorry im from latin america

[dominiccss]

How tight are you guys putting your springs? I have a DW 7000 and I put it on the max difficulty for strength training. Does anyone find it harder like that?

[WayneWiblin]

@dominiccss I find it easier with higher spring tention, I get more speed and control. I really dislike those floppy pedal settings

[aspasiz]

When are you going to make a lesson about the swivel technique

[Getchafuckinpull]

i hate you for how clean you do this shit -_-

[ghacksoft]

I am so impressed with what a foot can do. I'll try that!

[PurpleBlueFantasy]

its like your foot is the penis and kept knocking in the vagina... -.-

[Smoothaltheleet]

been trying to practice this for a while and I have a question hopefully somebody could answer.

when you slide up to "catch" it, do you use your hamstring or do you kind of propel your foot forward from the ball of your foot?

so I guess in other words, do you move your whole leg to slide up or just the ball of the foot?

thanks!

[golden1324]

Hahahahah loved the intro

[birkir16]

thnx man you'r awesome d:D

[fightertrainer]

I've learned this technic from Frank Briggs. It's very fast. But this guy is fun to watch I really enjoy it. Thanks

[shitty3344]

thanks drums rapist

[kayrrah07]

2:58 - 3:00 was awesome beat!

[K371N]

Sweet pants.

[metallicaguy85]

Hey man. I just stared learning this, but im practicing it slower and my foot seems to hit the middle, then rise a bit and catch the top for the second. So what I wanna know is, am i practicing this wrong or will what im doing eventually turn into a slide when I get more comfortable with it and faster

[alexmothernorthyork]

19 people have no feet.

[CSMiLL3rt1mE]

im digging that tigger costume

[JustinKeithD]

seriously, not only does his skill as a drummer blow my mind, but i could NEVER imagine him being anything less than a great person/gentleman, i really hope he has a good life, good people deserve it.

[M3T4LL1D3TH]

Not only did the video help, the beats were killer. Great job.

[nolifeATALL23]

do you have to have tight springs?

[Cristlefrost]

i heard you say you dont use the heel toe, why dont you and what is the difference? from a fellow (new) drummer thx

[MerraWanna]

could ur left and right foot use the sliding technique???

[juanqarlos94]

So the slide technique would be recommended mostly for single bass pedal, or it can be used to for fast double bass drumming (both feet)?

What would be the best technique for constant-fast double bass drumming?

[BrunoMaldius]

This guy seems to be a nice person. =]

[cockadildoe]

wow that's just amazing!

[mcgrath127]

lol love the tiger outfit :P

[BraunerBomberBatzen]

how fu**ed do i have to be to get that good??!?!

no just kiddin' , i am fu**ed but not good ^^



[LooopQ]

This is sooooo sick

[TheGuyWithThatHair]

this is a great technique, but my ankle is in pieces :(

[JustaMSdude]

Do you think you could use slide technique for a fast double bass? One foot on the right pedal, the other on the left, using slide technique going R R L L etc.

[thisisformusiconly]

@JustaMSdude You can do that, but heel toe seems easier, and its more fun, and you can get crazy fast with it!

[helloakayan]

I want your pajamas

[drummerboy10111]

damn you are bass ass :D lol

and this video helped a lot :)

GREAT DRUMMER!!! GREAT CRAZY

[freakcityundead123]

thank you for this lesson i dont have the money for a double bass :D

[blrsycth]

Do you use a trigger?

[watchthis534]

good explanation thanks

[ChoppiProductions]

Hi, i am currently using this technique, but funny this, i find it hard when i play with shoes because of the rubber soles, i find the grippy texture doesn't let me slide well. I have to play in socks to slide up and down the pedal cleanly. What do you suggest?

[krinkmop]

your really fuckin good man. this video is hella useful too.

[pepeteperez]

Whoa awesome technique and vans FTW!!

[manzha6]

Hey man! I have the same pedal, can you tell me the set that do you use? sorry for my english, I´m from Argentina! i hope for an answer, salutes !!!

[jclayn1]

I'm buyin a Fuckin drum kit tomorrow! Watching this and A7X shit got me hooked.

[shivsaxena]

this is essentially like a gravity roll for double bass, only in this case the gravity is the spring energy from the pedal. when i do fast bass rolls i use my big toe idk why

[chickenbeforeegg]

jesus christ dude you're skilled :D

[xXetfbmthXx]

your foot just rapped that pedal

[masterbeat04]

@xXetfbmthXx the pedal rocks... but your spelling sacks.... that's rapping... he is RAPING the bass pedal...

[xXetfbmthXx]

@masterbeat04 Bite me, asshole.

[masterbeat04]

[strambus08]

god dammnn motherfucker ur gooooodd!!!!!!

[MrKodyska]

hey man im trying to learn this and i cant get it down. do i need more tension on the spring of the pedel or what? im having a hard time catching it the second time.

[licr8]

nice iron cobras

[JonTheSpeedDemon]

Can you do the slide technique as well on longboards or are they just for heel toe?

[d1rNGrey]

your children are going to be gifted i thinkkkk :D

[Skravinner]

0:07 - 0:23 --- WTF:?????

[eBeauLive]

only other drum video besides mine i put up that explains this well. great vid. love the drum beat at 3:15. killer.

[ghettokaiba]

dude u got some serious skill and technique. i see you are good at ghost notes can you do a video explaining it?

[Jeneworld]

you r amazing!

[KyleJPie10]

I can't do that >_<... maybe its because I play barefoot... do shoes like that help your foot slide a little better?

[drunkenirish420]

@KyleJPie10 yes the flat shoes like the vans slip on help a lot at lease they do for me they might help u too

[Mikegaryhouse]

Amazing. A technique used by Chris Adler none the less. The triplets are on Ruiner from Burn the Priest. Thanks for making me think i can pick up my drums and play properly!

[Flamezsoulz]

that triplet sounded fuckin awesome...i was loling at your pants the whole time..then i realized you were wearing a tigger suit lmao

[sexynat50]

Whoa! That's awesome. Thanks Spikey!

[waltknowm]

So THATS how Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain does it...

[syngatesbestbud101]

omg kickn aasssssss

lol

[russellskates]

at 2:16 his foot starts jacking off.

[keres993]

I'm a total Heel-up player, but I must disagree that playing heels up allows you to play faster. You use your ankles, and smaller muscles as you go faster and faster. Most heel down players are able to go faster with more control easier than heel up, but they don't get power at all (which is why I don't really respect the hell out of them)

Good lesson.

[LukeSnyderMusic]

@keres993 Never seen anyone playing heel down past 220 or so. With heel up, some guys can hit 300. Playing heels up definitely allows you to play faster, because it DOESN'T isolate the motion to your ankles. You need to use leg and ankle motion to achieve the highest possible speeds, in a manner very similar to moeller. Its the exact same concept, really.

[keres993]

@LukeSnyderMusic Tim Waterson can do heel down at like 2000bpm :) his record is with heel-toe though.

[LukeSnyderMusic]

@keres993 I can play heel down at around 210, thats not really that fast. There are lots of guys out there that can play 260+ heel up, but none that I know of heel down.

[myrage100]

good stuff man thanks a lot ! :)

[jonxbox]

nice!

[Jiveness]

Regardless you are a really great drummer and I loved the example beat you used. I wish I got 100,000 views on my heel toe lesson...

[Jiveness]

any body who is a relatively good drummer should be able to do two kicks at virtually any speed like this. I can technically do a one handed drum roll at 500 bpm if I'm only doing two hits using a double stroke. What I'm saying is this is only technically double bass and in my opinion not amazing, but what a drummer should be able to do. No drummer should need to use heel toe to do this.

[rjthegolfer93]

awesome! but i want to see you put a video up just showing us the craziest stuff you can do. not really a lesson, like a showy video just for fun. anyone else agree?

[5asylum1]

@rjthegolfer93 i agree man this guy kills it all ready lol

[XNamelessXNill]

what kind of pedal do you have and i have a request can you tell me how to tune my drums to good quality mine have fallen all out of tune due to were i live climate n what not

[jverasobino]

good tiger

[iDrum2Cum]

Thx. What pedals?

[FRIESENZA]

Your springs are really loose and your footboard height seems fairly low. Would you say this is more beneficial? I think my footboard height is def too high to do this fast :s

[SuperRandomizer2000]

@lalamike25 You don't actually hit with your heel when you do a heel-toe it's really only there for consistency and just a little power on the first stroke

[SuperMagicDrums]

Your eye change the colour o.O?!?!?!

[lalamike25]

@pray4plagues100 heel-toe is you catch the pedal hit with your toe after a hit with the heel. You bounce off the ball of your toe and hit with your heel.
