The Druffle

[PMurray2694]

what kind of sticks do you use?

[minimatt7]

ATTENTION EVERYONE: I slowed down and dissected this beat and have transcribed it into a couple different formats. I transcribed it in Guitar Pro 6, It sounds pretty close to me. Youtube does not allow people to post links, it is on mediafire. just put this after the url on the media fire homepage.

[drumelimination]

WAS THAT BASS ACOUSTIC?????? LOL:)

[conceptvidz]

YOUR A BEAST.

[komo06]

you all need to train your opposite hand if you can't play this, i dunno if this guy is claiming this but he sure wasn't the first to play it

[liberamor01]

i can't understand how your hands play!! i like a lot this groove!! i'm trying to rebuild the movements but...really difficoult....

[drummerseahawkboy]

16-18 sec the bass footing is wrong........Nice groove though, before anyone thinks Im a hater watch my vids and tell me if Im a hater

[Aship711]

How do u do that fill on the china!? Man that's good!

[joshpattt]

Does anyone know what kind of china that is? I want one

[allmetaliswelcome]

@joshpattt its probably a zildjian oriental china trash

[TheJason624]

What kind of Remo heads are you using?

[nonmum]

Go buy yourself a metronome - NOW!

[MegaNakki69]

@nonmum u don't seem to know other rhythms than 4/4 lol

[soundofimpalement]

@nonmum it's swung, compound meter, with a tempo change and syncopated accents

[Grundibular]

It's a 32nd note kick over what are otherwise swung 16ths? Pretty neat. Sound hard. That thing you do on the china is the real boss though!

[punk9999643]

I LOVE the fill at 0:28.

[TheJason624]

@punk9999643 Would you happen to know exactly what he is doing?

[punk9999643]

@TheJason624 I know what he's doing, but sadly I can't explain it.

[samSOAI]

sweet

[rockrule80]

Only thing wrong with this is, the little grove at 0:24 is not yours it Thomas Haake's from Mesuggah check him out really good polyrythmic drummer :)

[ricaleblissett2]

this guy knows how to play man i tell you!! better than some black gospel drummers i know by far!!

[szeilea]

holy shit you are wayyyy too stiff brosef:)

[xXWhatUpDocXx]

wuhan 17" china ? or zildjian??

[Freddd95]

@xXWhatUpDocXx zildjian probably

[dapunkof1975]

NIGGA YOU IS OFF THE HEEZAY!

[HabitatRecording]

1:20 for really slow

[eclef]

Every drummer in this world has something to bring to the table, dope vid!

[D6Soldier]

Dude! The timing of the fill at 0:14 is sick!!! It so pleasing to the ears when you go back to the groove in such a way!

[drmnkid12xx]

dope but a bit off on the time. at least the bass.

[PolarSn0w]

@drmnkid12xx it's supposed to sound like that, the bass is playing the first two notes of the triplet

[THEBACON11]

Yhurr A Fuckinn Monsterr!

[laidbck4sho]

Thats great man!

[420jaymac]

the difference between this shuffle and the other shuffles is that the other shuffles sound good

[jafadrummer]

@420jaymac what are you on about it sounds great!! Right in the pocket

[XxStrongDrums1996xX]

@420jaymac Wrong, actually.

[adzug]

this is how i wanna play. not when i grow up cuz im old. but i wanna play with the power and authority this drew guy does. right now i play with authority but not like this guy. its something to aspire to. amazing beat too. just testafyin to the truth.

[Furiiiiouz]

idk if its really a shuffle...i mean..its a really good funk groove though

[boydrumsonwhat]

jesus that china's tight! :(

[Iandrummer071]

@boydrumsonwhat nah it just sounds tight but its not

[martelposey]

Kinda got a gogo feel to it

[kumquatmagoo]

dave89891's response is SICK!

[HolySmokesTheSquire]

That china sounds tight!

What is it? I need one, it's lush...

[DrMonkeymint]

what did your cymbals ever do to you?

[robster4ever]

heck yeah nice groove brudda!

[dannytoys]

weird...i think i like it.

[seems2bdarkness]

nice feel, bro.

Keep that shit up

[animalfromthemuppets]

SMASH

[MrDrumchum]

Nice beat its weird like combining more than 1 drummers styles, i really hear the bonham and purdie especially bonham with the fills.

[gooman989898]

@MrDrumchum what? theres no bonham in the fills....

mabee in the syncopated part of the groove, but the fills are like thomas Haake or something

[nigollllll]

I give those cymbals a month.

[sweetfly66]

@nigollllll ... that will be longer than this guys career ...ve at all

[pepe7drum]

@nigollllll cymbals love one month

[a1gold174]

Watch his hi-hat closely; he is ripping the space-time continuum.

[Shan224]

Youre not even micd up and i can feel that bass drum jiggle my throat. tastyy

[2cfhdh1]

Tight Beat

[asdrummer2008]

this is amazing!

[daprownclown]

love dat fill frm 23 to 29 dats bloody awsm

[cpdrumming]

sounds cool....the grooves that you refer to came from actual songs not just drum practice so that makes them relevant and helped develop the name they carry. The "druffle" is just a trippilet based groove that has some quartet trippilet note phrasing that you might hear at a drum clinic.

sound cool just not another category of shuffle...

[saladsfriend]

great drummer.... but not the best at explaining things

[Abgulu]

looks like a mapex

[wiliscool]

niiice triplet groove

[MAJIDAQ]

man thats POPPIN! and that china in there just rocked the house......

gonna be studying this one a while.

[AtheliaSwitch]

china too tight damn it

[Jramsoebhag]

what kind of drumset is he playing?? I think mapex or pdp

[onejordangerous]

This one groove has sextuple bass hits, 3 over 4 china patterns, and a little 'in the pocket' style thrown in. Safe to say this guy just about covered it all...

[lmospina42]

where are the sheets :D

[TheBeatSmith]

Hey Drew....love your grooves but this one's got me stumped.....I'm just curious as to what makes this a shuffle groove....

[allmetaliswelcome]

the 0:24 part is a 3/4 groove with the china on the quarter notes,2 floortom hits on the and and A of 1, a snare one the and of 2 and the E and And of 3 (last 2 ghostnoted)

[thelollerchef]

this is one of the sexiest things ive ever heard.

[WOWTODAZ]

stupid



[AccidentSite1]

what do you do on the ghost noting tho cause i cant tell.

[AccidentSite1]

what do you do on the ghost noting tho cause i cant tell

[lauxjm]

what are u doing as far as the ghost note?

[TheButtholeSurfers9]

I recommend you buy a looser pair of pants. How you did the bass drum part with no blood in your lower body is completely beyond me.

[kapdrums]

thats AWESOME!!!!

[mariorossipuzza]

it's fat!

[AjaxLastStand]

What kind of kit is that?

[LokoBrown]

@AjaxLastStand Looks like a Pearl Export Series

[sketchbager]

i got the hi hat and bass, i cant wrap my head around it enough to get that fill or snare ghosting

[bustergmaxx]

at 1:16-17 it starts with a semi-open hat n some bass reverb, sounds mean as!

[drumdigger]

Great stuff man! Thanks!

[phishinvan]

What kind of china are you using? I'm very curious. I love how quick, dry, and punchy it is.

Much appreciated!

[crousekenny]

anyone else hear a tomas haake influence??

[aero105]

what cymbals are being used?

[cleancomedy]

Jeff Pocaro is rolling in his grave!

[cleancomedy]

Jeff Pocaro is rolling in his grave! Lol!

[lihloh]

Is that a pdp m5 kit? O:

[SuperMolamola]

amazin man! really good encounter!

[terrellyoung]

ur kick sounds crazy, i love it. do u have an effect on it

[DUB212]

FUCK THAT SOUNDS HEAPS GOOOOD!!!

[DrummersRock23]

That kick drum is confusing me... Is it really shallow?

[ShaneFitzJam]

this is tasty as a motherfucker.

[BlackXSouleStudios]

i wish i knew music theory.

[DeadPandaTits]

i bet you go through a lot of cymbals

[zaheer921]

[Montgo15]

[piscopoDrum]

[LenAdanosi]

Mike Johnston clone.

[JamonjiCahillibongo]

nice work. better than your tasty little drum lick vid. 10/10

[MelchioDrum]

bass drum patter sonuds orrible...what's that??

[anayaedgar]

this was just lame, ur hi hat shuffle is not accurate, the bass drum figures are just weird and arythmic?

this is nowhere good man, i cant believe how ppl are saying this is good

[JELLYSANDWICHFOREVER]

@anayaedgar you dont much know your drum techniques then do you kind sir/ma'am. this may not be your style in drumming, so please, don't bash on ours. (:

[maxiedobson]

@anayaedgar the fact that ur saying this sucks means you are either a cocky beast or you are horrible to not be able to hear the rhythm.......lets see your video post.

[musher0123]

the Lost art is norLost !!! I LOVE IT

[sprintd1]

Nasty Baby!!

[Vessel846]

I know the focus was on the druffle..... but the fill you did on :23-26 was hott!

[ConvictJones]

i dont like it, at all. Sorry.

[anayaedgar]

@ConvictJones at least someone with brains, thank you, i cant believe ppl like this shit

[mrmcgill]

The thing that makes this so funky are the ghost notes on the snare drum....Keep up the good work!! God Bless!

[flchief]

sweet... i used it & its killin yo!

[ChicKDrumAtticK]

Nice!

[smbjmusic]

dude that china is awesome! I love the decay.

What kind is it?

[YoungWhite01]

yeah, the shuffle i will nvr get .lol

[JoeBrownDrums]

thats fucking fresh man.

[jadfast]

lol the crash to your right hits the china when you crash on it XD

[paulalexanderjohnson]

Lol . The funny part is that this video sound like a spanky lick & you called a Druffle . That's interesting . I like it man .

[affe95]

very creative!

[bonzo1989]

ok...your saying that you wanted to put the first two notes of the triplet on the 2....but listening to this it sounds like the 2 is the snare and the last 2 triplets of the one are being played? Ill listen to it a second time maybe im wrong

[Tuberidin01]

Sounds kind of forced.

[TheSeveredTongues]

0:24 made me jizz

[BillyMaysHere123]

@TheSeveredTongues it made me shit,jizz,piss,cry,puke and hiccup

[GotekDarkSamurai]

@TheSeveredTongues ditto, and it also made me lose control of all my bodily functions. Talk about off time! That fill was so good it was disgusting, I puked just watching it

[jr0014]

@TheSeveredTongues 0:24 the meshuggah shuffle

[0209056891]

@jr0014 he even looks like haake :D

[casperellis]

@TheSeveredTongues me too man lol

hahahaha

[oompaloompa1106]

@TheSeveredTongues why?

[funkbeasty]

Nice! Is that a PDP Charchoal to Natural burst kit or something? Think I have the same.

[realbazini]

Spearsy! : )

Very nice.

[kedcs1]

Well....that's one Purdie shuffle you got going there.

Fluffle shuffle.

[poncho2211]

sweet shuffle man

[lasticebreaker]

i got the hi hat part down.lol

[coldfuse]

@lasticebreaker That made me crack up so much. Nice one for the great laugh man.

[pootershnitzel]

hey i would like to know how you tune your toms, i've only played on aquarians and these remo's are nothing i am used to tuning. i just really dig the tone you have. on the other vids, are you hitting those texture coated remos? it would be nice if you would reply, but if i am a waste of time it's okay

[SSBEATZINC]

NICE.

[ivarsarutjunjans]

woah, maaaan. you rock

[ilovemayonaise]

Where is your metronome? Jesus.

[lilbuckharris]

[AlexMartin011]

Perfect for playing with yourself.

[SApElOn210]

"playing with yourself" hahahaha

jk jk.. the "druffle" does sound sick though

[javier20893]

lmao i was like wtf too

[drumatomic]

[Dylan6281]

Does anyone know what that intro is from... I think it was a toto song, or maybe its common and i just didn't know

[mrtitanium85]

@Dylan6281 i don't think its from a song specifically man. its just a common intro 2 start off the groove

[Cmontermini]

@dylan6281 you're thinking of rosanna

[AlexMartin011]

Down with MONTERMINI HE's total idiot OMG

[Cmontermini]

@AlexMartin011 Fuck off..... i bet you can't even FIND a song to play the "druffle" in. Musicially, that is.

[AlexMartin011]

Dude I could totally play that beat in Bach's Prelude in C major, don't fucks with alex martin.

[2cfhdh1]

Wack

[JDrumChannel]
