<3 karriem riggins. unlike some dudes i can usually grasp what he's doing but he makes it sound so good. like here, the beat is mostly straight paradiddles but when i play it doesn't sound nearly as dope: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55Lf1wMylIE&feature=player_detailpage#t=74

damn. i'm not always into the whole 'hmmm what can we do to this standard, i know, we'll play it in 7!' thing but that's a nice arrangement, love the vamp.

Yeah, it does seem like that standard in 7 thing has become pervasive (probably Mehldau's fault), but I love the way they Justin and Jacky interplay on it.

stumbled onto this -- I always liked and respected him a lot and thought he stood out as WAY better than the other drummers of his style/generation, but I didn't know he had chops like this

great video, great player. i like all the stuff about how dance styles dictate the development of grooves in pop music, use of space, etc. and the super '70s snare sound and cymbal angles.

i like all the stuff about how dance styles dictate the development of grooves in pop music, use of space, etc. yeah he confirmed things that i've only figured out by playing songs i like to dance to -- all the stuff about the way your body moves while playing is really otm. and when he talks about taking out some of the notes so you can have more space -- that totally makes sense wrt dancing as well. i can tell that he feels it. i think some people feel it more than others. he's a good teacher too, esp considering that he has no idea who his audience is.
― vigetable (La Lechera), Monday, 29 December 2014 15:36 (nine years ago) link
I wish someone had taught me about all that motion stuff when I was younger. Eventually I figured some of it out but my teacher was an orchestral percussionist and very focused only on the wrists and fingers which I don't think is ideal for drumset.
― man alive, Monday, 29 December 2014 20:52 (nine years ago) link
Totally loving the Yogi video. He's so engaging, and I love how he contextualizes everything. I have to admit, though, I was pretty ia about his movement -- the forearm-centered approach is relatively inefficient, and can result in a lot of wasted motion (and, ultimately, tendonitis in your elbows). But it obviously works for him (and the way he talks about the importance of movement -- both moving and observing -- is something too few teachers do).

just now found out that Dave King (Happy Apple/Bad Plus) is doing a series of drumming videos. he's both one of my favorite drummers and favorite people to hear say words, so let's assume that these are essential viewing:

― virtuoso thigh slapper (Jordan), Friday, 2 January 2015 18:45 (nine years ago) link
yeah i feel like that body movement business in the Yogi video is only useful if you already have your finger/wrist technique down cold, which he obviously does.
it's similar to Dave King actually, who uses his entire body in very expressive ways, although all the actual stick control is happening at a very micro level.

i finally watched the end of the yogi horton videohe is otm about pushups and physical fitness in general
i'll watch dave king next i guessi need some more input so please keep posting these! lol @ "play it with an animal bone" seems like a good guy

Early on in my drumming, I got advice that I took a little too literally that weightlifting was bad for your drumming -- I think this really only means lifting ultra-heavy, but I took it to mean weightlifting in general. Only later did I discover for myself that anything I did to strengthen my arms, back, core, legs, seemed to improve my drumming.
― man alive, Wednesday, 7 January 2015 15:42 (nine years ago) link
weightlifting is great! exercise is also a good time to study.

ooh! will subscribe. dave king seems like an amusing dude but he needs to stop addressing his audience and referring to drummers as guys.
