  • @Anonymous122131 That's dynamic.

  • Kill expert village!

  • That ride cymbal sounds awful!

  • he barely touches the bassdrum

  • @Nitram916 Because every bass drum is supposed to sound like Joey Jordison is hitting, it. It is called feathering the bass drum. In fact, I would say he is still hitting the bass drum too hard.

  • @Legoman19892 pff grow a pair

  • @Nitram916 The Lego guy is right. Jazz is a whole different style. You typically don't apply the "four on the floor" approach all the time, but when you do, you obviously don't play it loudly. Grow some musicianship.

  • There is NO swing in this at all, Painful. What's that rim click thing?

    If any noob drummers want to swing, throw that

    1, 1-skip-3-4, 1-skip-3-4 stiff motif thing away and play it more

    1, 1 skip 3,1 skip 3... (Yes I know that's not accurate but I'm trying to convey "feel" I'm not a teacher.. )

    What the vid shows is _probably_ ok for certain strict temp dance pieces, but it ain't swing. A lot of parts written for dotted 1/8 and a 1/16 SHOULD have been written for X0X triplets, playing X only

  • wow this guy needs to find a new hobbie...

  • Comment removed

  • hahaha

  • but thwere seems to be s.o. who knows how to position a microphone and how to use a soundboard:)

  • im about to vomit........just terrible

  • not the worst EV video I've seen actually.

    the only thing I have to object to is the sound of that ride cymbal. is that like a zbt or even worse? I don't even see how that could sound good in rock or metal, let alone jazz.

  • I have never been asked to play bass on all quarter beats in a swing chart. It's usually just beat 1 or less often, occasionally beats 1 and 3. Anytime I've played all quarter beats my director has asked for less bass drum. And as has been said before, the ride pattern was way too stiff. You didn't actually explain anything about how swing works. I really hope no beginners looking for help come here.

  • no matter how many times i dislike this video, it keeps popping up in my recommended videos. why are you doing this to me youtube?

  • Your kit, your cymbals, and your attitude is not JAzz nor SWing.

    And as an introductory video, you should explain more about the comping other than just doing rim clicks at the and of 3 and 4. The ride pattern seems a bit stiff... kind of as if you just learned how to play a swin pattern. And I really disslike that ride sound for this pattern. Sounds too washy and high pitch. A ride cymbal is suppossed to project sustainability, a some what dark sound. Not just any Zildjian cymbal.

  • To be fair, he did play a basic jazz beat.

  • That is not a rimshot you philestines!!!!!

  • @TheDrHopeless thank you! expertvillage should be renamed to ignorantvillage. definitely no rim shots in this piece lol

  • " Expert Village " ?!?

    " Suction City " would be more accurate !!!

  • Where do they find all those "experts"... ??

  • With the money wasted on this drumset and the 7 camera angles we could have probably resurrected Buddy Rich somehow and got some heart treatment for Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, my two favorite drummers of all time, both deceased. Fuck off shithead village

  • cymbals looks like 300¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

  • hey KG, thats not a rim shot

  • Very interesting sounding rim shot.

  • Only reason why he does NOT strike that bass drum with more power, is that he actually payed for it, but stole the rest of the set...

  • @MatHan77 this comment made my day xD

  • this is NoobVillage!

  • With all due respect, that's not a "rimshot" it is a rim tap (also sometimes referred to as crossstick).A rimshot is a heavy accent, wherein the stick connects with the head and the rim at the same time.

  • That's not a rim shot, it's a rim click.

  • Guys the point is that it's supposed to help BEGINNERS who DON'T KNOW what the fuck they're doing. Yes, it's easy. Yes it isn't "expert" but it's not supposed to be. Please, give it a rest for Chrissake.

  • @naturada137

    Who's Chris?

    Btw. They really shouldn't be labelled with the title "expert" in any ways, when their methods and their titles are so misguiding. Virginvillage strikes again.

  • that is the whitest way I have ever seen someone play a swing

  • hey im gonna show you how to play the worst swing beat known to man and try to sound like i know what im doing, if you would like to know some really bad tips on drums click the basic drum set tips  to the right

  • hey anyone want to complain theres a like button

  • KG Is A drummer?

    

  • just no.

    

  • My drummer uses way to much his cymballs does anyone has any idea how to tell him to stop using them so much and have an alternative to 'em?

    thanks

  • @fattirevsbud more cowbell :D

  • hi, i'm christopher bullard, and i learned to play drums today.

  • one of the most fail channels on youtube...

  • I'm Christopher Bullard and I hit my bass drum like a fucking pussy

  • @Anonymous122131 jazz is not about power, its about finesse...

  • @Anonymous122131 dude in jazz your suppose to feather the bass drum or not play it. you'd know if you actually heard jazz. it's hard for some ppl

  • @Anonymous122131 it is called dynamics you spastic

  • @Anonymous122131 Dude, i read that and could not stop laughing! Thank you HAHAHAHAHA

  • @Anonymous122131 in jazz drumming you are not supposed to play the bass drum loudly. Unless you are playing an accent in the figure or at the end of a fill or something

  • @chazmaster121 actually he has no bass drum technique he hits it soft but without rebound so their no bass sound, just a tiny little thud without a whomp too it.

  • @Anonymous122131 dumass

  • @Anonymous122131 yeah, that's actually how you play the bass drum in jazz......very quietly.

  • @Anonymous122131 I got cramp from laughing so hard!!! thank you

  • I'll bet ya he stole that kit, Niggas can't have such nice looking kits.

  • is that kevin garnet?? :))

  • "rim shot"

    kek

  • i think hes a sabian man.

  • wow expert village i learnt so much! thanks!

  • kay.......

  • how come u have 2 splash cymbals on both of the cymbals???¿¿¿

  • idk what to say about this

    except lol;)

  • haha remo heads!!!!

  • nice tom sound faggot. waste of a drum set

  • this is truly awful.

  • i'm not a racist.. that's rather a compliment.. but only black musicians could call this simple (even if it is)

  • @yairoka so let me stop here for a moment to think. Please, oh please correct me if I am wrong. By saying "only black musicians could call this simple" you are trying to say this actually IS complicated to you? (HAHA you totally tought i was going to summon the RACIST! card) but to the point. WTF! this complicated? bwahhahha you just made my day

  • @JehutyFIN shut up troll

  • is your foot like mentally retarded? hit harder

  • @LOLdrum That's how you play swing douchebag

  • @z2thaanko every single one of his videos he is hitting his bass drum like a little girl, don't try and defend him...

  • @LOLdrum well it's obvious you're no older than 12, "mega doublez bazz izz awesome dudez!!" Expert Village is full of retards of course, but that is how you play swing, I know that to someone of your age bass is 100 fucking percent everything about drumming, but maybe you'll learn sooner or later

  • read the title

  • You are black......

    YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO KICK ASIAN ASS ON DRUMS!

  • Thanx 4 the vid

  • KEVIN GARNETT!

  • 134 people are racist

  • @gmills95 or maybe they just disliked the video for other reasons than skincolor.

    You're judgemental for saying 134 people are racist.

  • @TurtleyPompato Wow, you are really stupid. Did you honestly not realize that I was joking? I think an 18 month old infant could have figured that out.

  • @gmills95 Wow, hey. No need for namecalling O . o

    I think you should have thought before commenting for fun, without implying that it was a joke. This isn't excactly the most intelligent forums you'll find.

    So... know your forum better, if you're going to insult me.

  • @TurtleyPompato Yes, you are right, this is not an intelligent forum because of the people like you who cant tell an obvious joke from an idiotic statement.

  • @gmills95 How excactly... Was I supposed to know?

    Did you imply anything?

  • @TurtleyPompato are you kidding me? it implies itself

  • 134 people are racist

  • @ChrisMiller1994

    @detulid

    so i'm trying not to cause any arguments because i thinks it's ridiculous but i grew up with the name "rim knock" but also what i think is that there are many different names. but yeah i'm used to rim knock. i mean i'm sorry if it's wrong but it's just what i'm used to because i'm in my school's marching band and we've always called it that. but hey who knows. things can have different names that we don't know of

  • zomg amazing fill at the end!1!11

  • 127 people didn't have time to watch all 138,714 videos this chanel has

  • it s cross stick actually:)

  • gosh,,lovin the drums..

  • thats a rim click you idiot

  • @zackattack94 You shouldn't call anyone an idiot unless you know what you're talking about...

    It is actually called Cross stick.

  • @rastapaul23 it can be called rim click to like how people say semi quaver instead of 16 note its just another way of saying it but this guy says something completly different like mistaking a tom for a cymbal

  • @zackattack94 to correct you, it's called a rim knock because it looks like you're knocking on the snare as if it were a door but the sound comes from the rim

  • @OriginalMattyMatt i've never heard the words "rim" and "knock" put together in any context, or conversation. ever. it's cross stick. Ndugu Chancler, whose recorded more cross-sticks than you could imagine has a howto video on vic firth's website. maybe you were close with rim-click or something... to quote ndugu, "the cross-stick is a rim-SHOT..." next time, don't use name-calling unless you've done at least a little research...

  • @OriginalMattyMatt to correct you, i've always called it 'cross-sticking'... is this correct?

  • That's a rim knock, not a rimshot. A rim shot is totally different.

  • haha wow thats the shityest swing beat ive ever seen a black man play haha

  • For a minue I thought you were goin into the main beat for Sachmo.... ahwell.

  • i wanna see one of these guys go all out, cuz i kinda feel like i could kick their asses when im 15

  • Hi, I'm Christopher Bullshit.

  • thats not a rim shot.... thats cross stick.......

  • NICE F'n KIT THOUGH!!!

  • he is ass

  • "Hi, I'm Kevin Garnett and  im not going to play what you think im about to play.."

  • @SICKSxNINE best comment ever

  • if i had 1000 pop tarts i'd eat them :)

  • Look... it's akon on a drum set... I though you were a rapper?

  • Your FIRED!!!!!!!!!

  • Novice village strikes again!!!!

  • @LooopQ god yea i know. i saw the kit n stupidly expected to see someone play it. silly me. 

  • Man, you really like Zildjian !!!!! :)

  • @dimaka28 who doesn't?

  • he loses the ostinato.

  • The **** is he doing at 0:46 lol

  • seriously.. why do they even bother teaching people.. expertvillage SUCKS!

  • Is expert village like where they're sending recovering crack heads these days..? Like has this guy ever played the drums prior to the shoot of this "smash hit" youtube video.. is all I'm asking.. aaaaand.. is this possibly what MAY have actually happened to Kevin Garnett? So, is this actually Kevin Garnett post crack recovery is also.. all I'm asking..

  • Comment removed

  • i want to punch that rides mother in the throat

  • fucking sucks like alll expert village.

  • those cymbols went to waste

  • terrible sound of toms, ride, hihat, bass drum and snare too :)

  • I didnt know Akon was a symbol expert

  • FAIL... he said... RIM SHOT..

    IT'S CALLED "CROSS STICK" YOU MORON!

    Rim shot is performed while hitting it on a flat angle which hits the rims and the skin at virtually the same time...

    FAIL...."EXPERT" village? really?

  • u racist bastard.

  • Its not a rim shot its a cross stick!!!! rim shot is wear you hit the snare and the edge of the snare at the same time

  • a custom fan huh?

  • frozone?

  • @DrinkingRoses lolololololololololol

  • @DrinkingRoses haha xD lmfao xDDD

  • Very nice! Thank you so much!

  • Like KEVIN GARNET ANYTHING IS POSSIBBLEEEE!!

  • You know it's gunna be bad when he's going play Jazz with all Z Customs...

  • first of all,the rimshoot in jazz sucks.second,the ride must be the "king",so you must hear it louder than other components.then.....comon expert village,can you take someone that can plays jazz??for me this guy never studied an only exercise of the chapin book.

  • @NiggaWhatChannel yeah i bet a beginner could become 100x better by using the chapin book than watching these videos. i mean he's an 'expert', but he couldn't even keep the hi hat steady. zero independence

  • wanker

  • hes not even playing the snare right, the tip of the stick is sopose to be close to the middle when in fact he has it on the outside

  • @YouHates Obviously you are not a skilled drummer if you don't know what a rimclick is.

  • @YouHates wow bro you know everything huh? like your snare comment hey guess what? he is playing it right because a snares sweet spot is a little to the left or right ok know-it-all?

  • guys it says "how to play a simple jazz swing beat on drums" thats why hes playin somethin simple man

  • nnaahhh...garnetts good at bein black

  • hey its Kevin Garnet

  • wtf? this is bullshit. Even my maternal grandmother could play this and she's dead. I would expect "expertvillage" to be for people who already do stuff seeking to become expert, not for complete noobs. This fails. That black guy fails at being a black guy.

  • @lolocaustism Haha fucking funny comment

  • @lolocaustism Most ppl don't even know how to hold the drum sticks and I doubt your grandma could either. Jazz takes skill and even a good drummer needs to be shown the basics of it.

  • @Simonboy5

    My grandma couldn't because she's dead, well, both are tbh. And you'd have to be pretty thick not to know how to hold a stick because in my experience any way which feels natural will get the job done. Furthermore, this channel is called "Expert Village" not "Noob Village".

  • @lolocaustism An experienced musican won't have any big problems but people are pretty thick when it comes to drum sticks. They think that just hitting the cymbals with the sticks is all there is to it and then complain of the bad sound, that's why there's a ton of videos on "how to hold the drum sticks" and even when they do, it still takes time to master even quarter note patterns.

    Also, I still stand by my opinion. I don't think a beginner drummer would turn to jazz music.

  • Comment removed

  • @Simonboy5 fuck bitch

  • sabian and zildjian are made from the same family lol, i forget the whole story but like someone ran off n made their own cymbals or w.e...(probly way off), its just the sound u prefer, sabians got some realllllly nice cymbals, zildjians just more expensive

  • jeah, that really sounds pretty good.. not.

    still seeking for some experts in "expertvillage"

  • looks like skiiboski from american idol this season. just sayin

  • DESASTROSO!!!

  • The video is good, no so negative as many people say. But that end is really funny!!!!!

  • u need to loosen up your right hand, dogg.

  • Man, expert village is FULL of experts... and @WinglessPigThatFlies...did the same thing. Your drums and your cymbals sound terrible, and you couldn't swing if you were in a playground.

  • that little "fill" at the very end seriously made me spit laugh

  • This video has the potential to really help people. good job!

  • Comment removed

  • What is the point in all these negative comments? It's not even constructive critisism

    If this is too hard this aint the vid for you.. If this too easy then he DID say basics

    T o d a y ' s g a m e, and a lot more!

    Re: Drum Set Basics : How to Play a Simple Jazz Swing Beat on Drums by emalynbitter99

  • how can anyone play jazz with Z custom cymbalz

  • agreed

  • this is actually a good video for beginners because for alot of people starting out, its difficult to do the four things at once. so practicing this helps with the coordination.

  • this vid sucks. as for the rythem and sound of his kit, just like zildjians and remos... it is shit

  • Agreed on the Remo heads but im pretty sure I spent more money on my A-Customs than you spend on that whole kit you have lol

  • you mean two the 17" a custom cymbals and the ping ride you have? seriously, i doubt it cost's more than my kit all by itself man, im NOT saying my kit is better by the money... i use 4 aax cymbals AND sabian compared to zildjian are pretty much the same, i just prefer sabian

  • I have 18", 19" Crashes, 22" Ping ride, 13" K/Z hats and a 8" Splash..they hardly sound like shit and I have seen that kit..they cost more

  • ACTUALY THIS ONE IS A GOOD ONE O=

  • Some of you guys posting here are idiots... Its a lesson on a very basic swing pattern... and any professional drummer has to know how to use it IN TIME and consistently on a session... You can study all the fancy stuff you want (which is what your teachers are teaching you at the corner music shop) but unless you can stuff like this like the man is explaining, you're not going to be able to play REAL sessions as a professional drummer.

  • wth was that at the end? just hitting random drums trying to make it sound good? woow!

  • got to say bad sounds

  • he started slowing down

  • Hey, maybe he's still just learning; he's trying the basic.

  • thats awsome drumming

  • FAIL

  • Haha 0:34 he's concentrating so hard! Hilarious

  • MAn i thought this guy was gonna rip i mean thats a nice kit and hes black ... WHATS THE DEAL

  • @Fittygitty its lesson not solo

  • @Fittygitty Swing music started with black people (: Hence Hitler was against it. I don't see why it's surprising that a black man is playing drums though, there are some fantastic black musicians!

  • @Fittygitty i totally agree...he is the only black with an amazing drum set who can't play!!
