Carmelo-Linear Patterns and fills practice Drake I want this forever (clean remix)

I use Pattern 2 from Mike's linear drumming book for the groove of the song. I also use Pattern 6 in chapter 2 of the book. I found a few other videos on youtube that I practiced so I would like to give them thanks.

Thanks Fredrik (sorry I spelled your name wrong in the video... Here is his lesson:

Please check the video description, I put links in there for the lessons that I found for the fills. They help a ton.

@rhythm61067 Thanks Robert, working on that kick drum sound though....I enjoy the mixing almost as much as playing.

@drummerathlete Thanks so much Bert, that really means a lot to me!

OMG, Carmelo! I haven't seen a video of yours in awhile, and the difference between them is such a contrast. You were good in the first one, yet no you're in beast mode. Dang man! - Bert

Very cool man!!!!

Great job Carmelo! Mike was right on when he evaluated your video by saying that your drums sound great! Robert F.

@NYTROOPA

Clever! a good way to push yourself and prepare at the same time :)

@Fr4nR Thanks Fran. I worked on them for a couple days to the song then I used a metronome and worked on cleaning up the 32nd note fills. The song is at 80bpm so I worked on 90bpm so that when I played the song it would be easier.

[Fr4nR]

sound awesome, thanks for sharing. So how long have you been on these particular lineair drum patterns?

@Danielcrspo You know what i am just noticing now how low it is. I think I will raise it today and play around with it. I like sitting high too but the floor toms won't go any higher. I will have to just experiment. Thanks for the advice.
