Blue Devils 2009 Para-Dise

[VerySnowy]

I have the same pad combination, except for the realfeel. I hate the realfeel with all of my heart... the buzz at the end of the bounces is just all dead... haha. But the back side feels nice though.

[VerySnowy]

Yea.. I have the exact same pad combination.. hah

[SkimShades117]

@VerySnowy Pad combination?

[ARZiehm]

@SkimShades117 From the bottom up it's the Vater double sided, the HQ Reel Feel then the Offworld Invader.

[SkimShades117]

@ARZiehm Gotcha... haha I have the top one I guess that'll do x)

[IAMmrhardcore]

I would attempt this, but i cant do fast paradiddles like that for shit

[USC4ever46]

@IAMmrhardcore Chopwork, chopwork, chopwork, practice, chopwork, practice, practice, chopwork. :D

[fchguy]

Your technique is amazing

[kooliodrummer53]

If anyone has the full score for grievous groove, I will trade the full score of this for it.

[padmadness]

lolz i saw the left hand go WTF? on the double paradiddle at the end, it always gets me to, i gotta post a new vid

[chaaassee]

tenor music please! :) great job btw

[meganjustus]

Can you send me the snare part please?

[mgjr619]

@ARZiehm Dude do you mind giving me the music? if not then its cool.

[Rpkist77]

Snare part here dawg

[blackman520]

could you send this to me?



[StrikerECK]

Man I've been looking everywhere for this music!!!!!!! Can you please send it to me!!!!

[apeex90]

can i have the sheet music please?

[apeex90]

can i have the sheet music please?

[NiklasSD]

U're a Devil - that's for sure!! . Let's u go blue!!



[Bluecoatsdrummer2012]

could you please send the sheet music to me?

[scifidrummergeek]

The only thing I'd have to say is bead placement. It appears that you're inconsistent with where the beads of the sticks are placed. Especially with the left hand. As you play, it drifts towards the rim of the pad.

That's the only bad thing I noticed. You're technique is excellent, and I'm sure you'd make one of the lower-level corps without any previous experience. If you're looking for a corps, Legends has a snare opening.

[ARZiehm]

@WAMPproductions24 hahaha that's where I got it. Hella old vid.

[blackman520]

yo man can i get the music for this im willing to trade got a lot of drum breaks and a couple of cadences.

[EVITO5]

SNARE PLEASE



[EVITO5]

SNARE Please

[69anonymous1]

Yeah would it be cool if you sent me the snare part?

[SomeGuyDrumming]

ur so tense loosen up a bit bro

[kas36spires]

i'd like the snare part just because i couldnt find it on tapspace. If you don't want to give it out though it's fine, ill just transcribe it i guess.

[ARZiehm]

@kas36spires You wouldn't find it on tapspace, that's for scv and cavs. It's on scottjohnsondrums . com I think.

[kas36spires]

@ARZiehm thank you :)

[zedleppelin031]

ay its josh you gotta send me this haha

[lootbucket]

look down when you practice and play in the center of the pad/drum. your sticks start wondering when you play the fast stuff like at the end.

And your left hand technique is sexy btw.

[ARZiehm]

@lootbucket Yeah, I know, but I'm in a line now and I've fixed that because I have to think about it haha.

And my technique is even better now lol. But thanks anyways. :P

[rotflolmaomgtfo]

@ARZiehm where do u march? :)

[atomikfzr1]

watch the right hand at 1:24

[ARZiehm]

@atomikfzr1 lol I think you're the first person to notice that! I remember that when I played it and hoped No one would notice haha.

I played it off but that was a mental tick. Good job finding that.

[tanerx]

is that the Vater pad underneath the offworld?? i have the vater double sided and i absolutely loathe it! the gum on the red is already starting to come off.  I want the offworld really bad!

[latrendat1]

Just wondering ar those flam paradiddle at 1:17 nice chops btw

[ARZiehm]

@latrendat1 No, just regular paradiddle taps

[rayl9]

I feel like you're stiffening your wrists too much, and play in the center...but other than that, I like it. Nice work!

[saidincontent]

@ARZiehm

Can you email me the full score if you have and if not just the snare please???? c12morales@yahoo.com

[saidincontent]

@Arziehm

Can you email me the sheet music please? c12morales@yahoo.com

[Kybo5]

@AEZiehm Snare Please

[drumkid1982]

Snare

[ARZiehm]

Thumbs up if you want the music. I want to see how much interest there is, idk if i want to do it.

Also comment telling what instrument you want. I'm assuming most will want snare, so I might just write it out myself so I'm not giving out the whole score or anything.

[drumkid1982]

@ARZiehm snare please :)

[PCMB4LyFE]

@ARZiehm

me likes.. and wants. :D

[snaredrummer39]

@ARZiehm Snare PLEASE ive wanted this forever i found it but its $10.00

[DanteLuvBD]

@ARZiehm can u send me a snare sheet?

[austineatsbagels]

@ARZiehm the snare part would be fantastico.

[SoaringDragon3]

@ARZiehm Do you have the Tenor part?

[FRCalvinZheng]

@ARZiehm snare part please :D

[Junior2730]

@ARZiehm Having the snare part would be amazing

[69anonymous1]

@ARZiehm -Snare please.



[TheDrummingAsian]

@ARZiehm Idk If you're still writing out the parts for people, but I would like Snare please!

[Flopadiddle]

@ARZiehm I would like the whole score if you already have it, if you gotta transcribe it then just give me the snare part and I'll save you some time lol

[Canstett]

@ARZiehm Hey, could you send me the snare part, Thanks! Great drumming

[JaxAkaJT]

@ARZiehm can i have the snare part please?

[drumkid1982]

music,.......PLEASEEEEEEE i wanna learn this so bad

[austineatsbagels]

would you share the music??

[Kybo5]

Very nice dude....

Would you be willing to share the sheet music by any chance?

[JumpShotDude]

taps need more wrists and less arm

[leftshoe0]

How tall were you back then? I have the same pads and the same stand..its not high enough on its highest setting

[ARZiehm]

@leftshoe0 Same height, around 5'10. I have an extension now. You put the middle piece into it so it goes higher.

[leftshoe0]

@ARZiehm oh sweet..i need that

[gunnerman21]

you should send me the music for it

[zedleppelin031]

could i get the music?

[castmc003]

that was sweet man just relax at the end and you got it down !

[ARZiehm]

@castmc003 yeah, I'm better at it now, but those are fast anyway lol.

32nd note paradiddles fo sho lol

[chrisman180]

XD u know vater is probobly soo pissed that everyone is saying fuck their pads and puting invaders ontop of it XD i do the same thing vater is peace of crap

[chrisman180]

*presses subscribe button before drumgasm.

[doeboyfresh863]

sweet shirt!!!!!

[sausyyy]

dude thats sick nice, were can i find the music for that?

thanks

[Gmoney28890]

yeah yo could I get those beats lol

[drumset57]

Hey, I would love to have the music to Para-Dise so I could learn it. Would you be willing to send it to me?

[ARZiehm]

@drumset57 i think you can buy it. and you can always transcribe it. but i'm not sure if i want to start giving it out yet. maybe later in the 2010 season.

[blackman520]

@ARZiehm so now that its 2010 you think you can send it too me lol

[drumdude113]

Oh yes Invader pad. Only way to go. Nice vid btw

[jamieman28]

your right/left arm rotation look pretty damn solid.

[ARZiehm]

@jamieman28 it's even better now. that's really what i've been focusing on technique wise. rotating and always coming from below the stick to produce better sound out of the head.

[jamieman28]

@ARZiehm good shit. Did you tryout anywhere this year?

[ARZiehm]

@jamieman28 I tried out at bdb but there were basically no spots cause of vets...and my audition wasn't great...not bad...but not good either. just ok

[jamieman28]

@ARZiehm aw that sucks. what about scvc?

[ARZiehm]

@jamieman28 they're good, but I'm not really used to a tilt and I don't know their exercises. I could learn but i think it would be easier to stick to bdb and a corp.

i was thinkin about mandarins maybe but i'm not sure

[jamieman28]

@ARZiehm yea haha. half of the scvc snareline are seniors on my drumline. The scv excersizes are really flam based and mind teasers haha.

[ARZiehm]

@jamieman28 lol yeah no offense to BD they have by far the easiest exercises.

[jamieman28]

@ARZiehm hahahaha but their lines are consistantly raw like every year. cant wait to see them at stanford this season

[ARZiehm]

@jamieman28 yeah I'm goin to stanford this year too. last year it was on my birthday but this year its 2 days before.

yeah, that's BD for you. They have easy exercises, but they already have talent...and they have a chill work ethic, again cause they already have the talent.

[jamieman28]

@ARZiehm hahaha aight chill ill see you at the BD lot then hahahaha.

[ARZiehm]

@jamieman28 yeah I'l definitely be there.

[aolyahoo]

hey i like your style. Killswitch is awesome. Keep going man nice drumming

[JordanNightrain]

hey yeah same for me lol i hate to bother but this is awesome :D i would love the sheet music...

[southpark1jd]

plz tell me where u get this sheet music

[TcSnare1]

hey man can u tell me where to get this music

[EnterTheOcho]

Hey man, great job...anything I can trade you for the sheets to this? I've got plenty of stuff, quite a bit of which is rare stuff, so just ask me and I'll do my best to hook you up.

[TheDigitalMonk]

Good playing. Here's some pointers on technique if you care to listen.

1. Let your doubles rebound more, you're getting a bit of a "bucks" sound for doubles that should both be equally full. You can do this by loosening your grip a bit and letting the drum throw the stick back more.

2. Careful not to let your fingers fly off the stick on your right hand (to be honest, this is more of a visual thing than anything else).

[cwk1417]

digitalmonk...I'm not saying I disagree with your second comment, but where in the hell do his fingers come off his right hand.

lol maybe you're seeing something that i'm not.

[TheDigitalMonk]

I think I was talking about 0:45 but looking back on it now, it's really too small to even call out. It's really okay to let your fingers come off the stick.

[ARZiehm]

oh i see it now. it did come off a little. it's just people actually tell me im a little tense in my right and i dont let go enough...like i hold it too tight. obviously there should be no pinky but i probably shouuld let it be a little looser.

[TheDigitalMonk]

ya, looking back on it, I definitely regret calling out the finger as a tick. Soooo, disregard that. Very nice playing though. You'll be able to march corps for sure as long as you have mental chops too.

[ARZiehm]

yeah, i'm definitely always trying to improve.

[Narutokevin]

hey can you send me da sheet music?

[FeeLtheHertZ]

Dude, you're technique is BEAUTIFUL!!

[ARZiehm]

@FeeLtheHertZ

lol. not really...just ok

[ElasticWrath]

haha the snare tech said they added in the clicking to help the tenors with those ridiculous notes

[ARZiehm]

lol that makes sense. i had no idea before, cause it wasn't written haha.

[clownhc]

One comment. Work on your left hand accents. Some of the doubles weren't even in sound. That's really the only thing I have to say.

[clownhc]

Also, try raising the drum up...

You're playing way too low.

[CenterSnareHHS]

i have the sheet music for latin lover wanna trade?

[ARZiehm]

@CenterSnareHHS

had that for hella days lol.

once it dies down in poularity (sometime after the 2010 season starts) ill start trading for it.

[RYNOTELLEM]

hey jw r u from nor cal

[ARZiehm]

naw, cen cal. san joaquin valley.

[commandersdc]

Yeah the video in the background he is playing along with is the video I shot in Tulsa, Oklahoma, BLUE DEVILS 2009 Drumline playing Para-Dise

[ARZiehm]

yeah it is.

[snaredrummer39]

yea me too can you send me the sheet music?

[Chopmaster255]

Can i get the music please

[kmtobia]

you are holding on to the stick too much in your right hand.....back fingers. open up those back fingers more.

[ARZiehm]

ya your right. i need to work on that and rotating from below the stick, like not dive bombing

[igknightus]

the red invader pad...where can i get it?

[ARZiehm]

@igknightus that is just a vater pad.

but supposedly there is going to be a new invader that is all red. but i dont have that one.

[igknightus]

@ARZiehm thats what my friend at guitar center said...he said hed set one aside for me so ill post a vid on it.

thanks for the info!

[MrSnareplaya]

can i have a copy of this music? plz

[JonathanHan7]

nice job man. try making your sticks out a little bit more sharp on clean, it looks kinda lazy. and maybe i'm crazy, but i think your sticks are leaning a little bit toward the right so just try and center your sticks and get the beads together as close as possible to get the best sound. just some constructive critiscm, good job though man.

[ARZiehm]

your right cause my sticks are a little to the right.

[JonathanHan7]

oh and your sticks in is kind of angle downward. looks like your left hand is lower than your right when you come in.

[ikickmycat]

damn!

good job

[dylannguyen159]

is that a vater pad underneath that invader pad?

[drummerscar15]

Pretty good

[atomikfzr1]

This looks really fun to play. did you learn this by eye and ear? or to you have the music hidden around?

[BCHSdrummr]

is there anyway i can get this sheet music

[middleeasternguy36]

I have the sheet music if u have latin lover or flash gordon henderson i'd be willing to trade

[ARZiehm]

i have both

[drumlines4life]

yo dude, you use too much arm, you need to use a little wrist.

[Indy1829]

can i please get music for this

[SUFI252]

where can u get the mp3?

[ARZiehm]

the one i played along with is actually a youtube vid i downloaded and played on my ipod dock lol.

[snaremaster]

u got mad form brah.....u a beast and thats sayn something comen from me cuz i dnt give credit out like that

[confused0608]

this solo is from scott johnson's book of rudimental solo book Progression

[ARZiehm]

i dont think so...this was meant for the blue devils...and i dont have the book, so i can be positive. but i think it's strictly blue devils

[confused0608]

i have the book its solo number eleven written by scott johnson. the only thing changed is the addition of the tenor

[zackvbra]

i like the little ditty breakdown thing starts around 1:17

[Indy1829]

can i get snare music for this

[gshuda22]

Hey man, nice playing. Consistency of playing in the center is a little off sometimes, and yea, those paradiddles at the end are pretty fast, especially for the height they're reaching (i don't think i've heard a clean recording from bd yet).

Not bad though dude. Where'd you learn that left hand twirl around the rim clicking part? Looks freakin sweet.

[ARZiehm]

thanks. im always tring to improve, and playing in the center, i always let it slip my mind, since ive started drumming haha.

the "left twirl" is a thumb roll, and i got it from shake hands with beef from RCC. you literally just roll it around your thumb lol

[JamKat91]

i have the music for this, given to me by the scott johnson

[brueck4]

same here! system blue camp? thats where i got mine

[ARZiehm]

if you audition they also give you their entire exercise book. they are now doing camps, and their $100.

but they dont cut you immediately, you get to stay the whole weekend, and learn stuff.

[timmypoopoo]

is that a Vater pad under the offworld? haha

[ARZiehm]

a vater, an HQ then the invader lol

[wvhsdrumline53]

very nice man!! u got the msuci for this? can i get it??

[yeahyeahyeahyeahya]

Nice video man :) trade for sheet music?

[yeahyeahyeahyeahya]

I have a lot lol. Is there anything you're looking for?

[GP3PocketSnare]

Not in particular. Can you let me know what exactly you have? PM me.

[GP3PocketSnare]

I'm slowly losing pad hands. But I have horrible stick control. I just got the music to this and when I play those left hand para-diddles my hands just start going off and playing something else. Any tips?

[ARZiehm]

with anything, do it slowly (crawling tempo) and do it right. slow and clean leads to more speed and control

[GP3PocketSnare]

Ugghh I wish i could play this but I have extreme pad hands

[ARZiehm]

your telling me. i have the worst pad hands. i havent played on a drum for longer than 10 minutes in over a year

[SCVfan51]

but you dont have to worry about pad hands you've got an invader :)

[ARZiehm]

lmao i wish.

i have to occasionally play on a drum to keep the pad hands off.

and the invader is great for that, but i simply haven't played on a drum for too long

[mikstertjc123]

I think your heights are good. I suck but I'm pretty sure I can tell good from bad now, aha. Btw, could I get the music? :D

[LAKings0101]

buy the audition packet! it has the actual music for this... not some transcription so you know its right!

[RcC2010]

yah ur pretty g00d dawg, but u should play da jedi knight wif me, itz good. ima be tryin out for rcc n i plan on makin da centa snare. check out my vidios!

[cappizzle09]

practice the sixtuplet stream of notes towards the end a lot sloooower, then speed it up, the weird stickings and fast nature of it forces you down when you go faster

[ARZiehm]

when i hit those double paradiddles and left accented para diddle diddles i have uber taps :/

so ya, your right.

[Rogers1977]

Do you have a video that shows the tenors?

[ARZiehm]

i dont, its in the related videos of my video.

but it dosnt show it. it stays on the snares.

[Spedunk]

Can I get the music too?

[henrygillardlive]

dude, can i get the music for this? its so awesome!
