[babekcologne]

i miss the cowbell in music

[mallowman12]

Dude, this is nice stuff. Its always nice to see this type of drumming with a spoken out cowbell or clave. BTW, i got a cowbell for my set today, so happy

[Bosphorus92]

i know that you may not remember the sticking for the lick at 0:15, but do you think it is any bit similar to rL rr ll played over and over again?

[AriaSuvillan]

i love cowbells

[akitoytube]

It's an useless video...

[OhNoNotMyPenis]

[checono24]

[TheMtc123]

nice groove man

[crozzara]

very nice groove.

[goobertay]

this was ok...

but i think it needs more cowbell

=D

[jayweh]

I finally know how to play the beginning! check out the explain video to this groove, it´ll help a lot. I have been teaching myself how to play drums (youtube) for less than a year and I can do it. so can everyone else. ...back to playing the funk now lol

[jmw1993]

awesome! what is that cymbal that the cowbell is on? like what type?

[thispagesux]

i love the cowbell beat of 80's song pump up the volume!

[jeffhm1123]

ii like the begining

[jayweh]

I need help here, I can´t for the world figure out the pattern of the beat and play it on my drums! how does that awesome bass drum beat at 0:04 work? and where to put the cowbell??? could someone write that down for me in beatbox pattern, like this: b ttt b pf cb...

I can´t read musical notes for drums :(

[sachamun]

Thanks for your question - I'll break it down in a drum lesson video soon - I post them here: youtube /user/schoolofmusiconline

[jayweh]

yay, awesome!!!!watching someone explain it to me on their drums - slowly and then faster - is just how it works for me best. I´m no good at reading notation at all, it´s all about watching and hearing. is there a website for people like me?lol

[jayweh]

hey sachamun, could you also maybe demonstrate how to play "men in love" by gossip? hope you know that, best funk beat with cowbell! the vibe of that song is amazing! would be so great! ...you know I favorited you... :)

[jayweh]

@sachamun have you put up that drum lesson video yet. I can´t find it

[sachamun]

Here we go: youtube com/watch?v=QLEXmKz-MV4

[MrBenPratt]

Thankyou Mate!!! GREAT VIDEO!

[cypressdex]

bravo!

[jayweh]

the beginning is off the hook, I totally like ghost notes on snare. I wonder if it´s possible to play ghost notes on e drums?

[Diphallia]

it probably is possible on the more expensive kits.

[jayweh]

@Diphallia I got the hang on ghost notes. it´s usually just alternating between hi-hat and snare the latter of which is played more quietly. I never knew where to hit the snare. I guess it´s just like learning how to whistle or ride the bike, lol my e-drum does do quieter hits on the snare, yay!:)

[sachamun]

Yeah I'm quite impressed by how sensitive some of the new electronic kits are. I'd never gig with one but I'd love to get a hold of one to play around. I find the best way to practice ghost notes is to exaggerate the dynamics (volume) as much as possible. For example, a slow 8th note rock beat (very loud backbeat) with ghosts on the 16ths (very quiet - almost too quiet to hear). btw, I post drum lessons here youtube /user/schoolofmusiconline

[turntapzap]

I would love to jam with you.

[PissoDeStrisso]

[Swizzgard]

[MartinHakusho]

[CurlyMcAfro]

Funky fresh man!

[georgewhedge]

tasty ghost notes

[noelevan]

Nice clave Groove.. You should post more videos up.. Killer drumming.

Peace.

[JonnyWedel]

now thats what i'm talking about.  I HATE Generic Latin beats or whatever that just follow some music on a sheet like clave crap. it friggen sucks. This is some actually sweet groove.

[conjigalo]

Hey man! i love that first beat you had going on!

is that a particular latin style? or are you just improvising?

-Thanks!

[sachamun]

It's just jamming, but it's all based on the sound of the 2:3 rumba clave.

[emu1995]

why what happened to it?

[sachamun]

Just sold it. Got real busy and wasn't using it much - it's a Rode Podcaster.

[emu1995]

that sound really cool i have just recently made a cow bell it doesn't exactly sound like that. But Is that tho only piece that you have of that cow bell funk?

[sachamun]

Hi there. It's the only recording I made yes. I was just jamming - testing out my new mic (which I no longer have!).

[Mikeanaiter]

i love the cowbell

[ed005]

hey man i like it!!!

[Drumsterr]

Yo man, thats some good stuff.

Sounds clean!

[drumbum4lyfe]

Wow that sounds terrific very impressed keep up the great work!
