Ben, I noticed one thing: in the drum fill, after playing: FLOOR TOM - TOM - FLOOR TOM - BASS DRUM - SNARE, the correct way to play is: FLOOR TOM - TOM - FLOOR TOM - FLOOR TOM - FLOOR TOMS - BASS DRUM - SNARE, and not like you (TOM - TOM - FLOOR TOM - FLOOR TOM - FLOOR TOM - BASS DRUM - SNARE). am I wrong?
Great lesson! But I noticed that on the tom fill when it gets to the hi-hat bit, Dom plays the ribbon crasher with his right hand so it sounds a bit like a double open hi-hat (which could be an alternative if you don't have a ribbon crasher)
Hello Ben! I'm currently studying a project on teaching and learning at uni and it would be a great addition if i could find out how you filmed (what camera's you use and how many and issues??) and edited (programs and how you get the split screen effect?) would be well appreciated! thanks!
just one thing i've noticed is that in the beginning, the high hat accent is on the UP beat, not the down beat. its tricky and it seems like people leave it out alot.
@cast1990x also, meant to say that i never managed to play the tom fill when i used to play but after a couple of hours of your tutorial ive pretty much got it down.
YOU ARE A GOD ! Thanks man this really helped..my favourite part was 00:00-15:17 ;) I Seriously cudnt stop hittin the replay button !!..this is really gonna help me..as i sed..YOUR A GOD..keep it up !!
Not to take anything away from this video at all, because Its brilliant and you explain everything in real nice detail for easy understanding and learning. But there are quite a few little pieces I saw that are incorrect but like I said there only minor. Still best tutorial on youtube for this song.
any one know what to use instead of the 11" ribbon crasher because i dont want to spend 40 quid on something i'd only use in one song? apart from that i can play it all :D
@MrCstewart8 just your hats, Cameron - 14 - playing drum since august '09? there's a distinct difference in sound, but then again you could definitely get away with using your hats instead. at Reading he used some kind of a tiny china on top of a splash too, but not sure you'd find anything much cheaper than 40 quid. you could make yer own!
@MrCstewart8 I open the hi-hat very slightly a just hit it as hard as I can without cracking it. It doesn't sound as good as the ribbon crasher but it works.
aaaa thank you so much! i always wanted to learn it properly! im a begginer though and it isn't going too good :P (especially the tom toms part, cant get the speed needed for it :/)
anyway, great work! im looking forward for more :)
@Sanroxem lol i know what you mean. Dont worry and keep practicing. All good drummers have had years of it. I use to struggle with this but now i can play it with my eyes closed because i practiced all the time. Keep it up and keep drumming, you will eventually get it. :D
Section 6 should use the floor and tom and snare just before the hi-hat, and try using both the ribbon and hihat separately, instead of just the hi-hat.. It can be seen perfectly here at 4:16.
dude i have a question.. :) what do you use to mount your ribbon crasher..?? using only the cymbal stand or you have something placed before mounting it..?? really appreciate if you could share it with us..
The part in the song Demonstration , when your on the toms and catching the open hi hat... your supposed to actually catch the ribbon crasher and then the hi hat right after it.. to make it sound like one full catch .. but its actually two!!
it is still a pretty dam good song... so groovy, I prefer this than blast beats
also drummers like us (played this song like 3 years ago, probably the 1st song you played (and I have a lot of doubts about thats, to a begginer is pretty hard)) it was "easy" but come on, not every1 is good at starting, its not "im better" it is just "I have played more time than you"
@ju0ju45 Seriously, this was not ment in any offense way, but who can't play that song by ear? There's nothing special about it what needs any further explantions.
Fantastic job! It's an absolutely perfect tutorial. Just the right amount of time spent on each section and all the different camera angles really help. It's all too easy to be a great drummer (well, not that easy :P) and then be rubbish at conveying what you do to other people but you have talent at both! Thumbs up!!!!!
Ben, I noticed one thing: in the drum fill, after playing: FLOOR TOM - TOM - FLOOR TOM - BASS DRUM - SNARE, the correct way to play is: FLOOR TOM - TOM - FLOOR TOM - FLOOR TOM - FLOOR TOMS - BASS DRUM - SNARE, and not like you (TOM - TOM - FLOOR TOM - FLOOR TOM - FLOOR TOM - BASS DRUM - SNARE). am I wrong?
