I don't really know much about drumming but one of my favorite drummers to watch is Jim White of the Dirty Three, who is now kind of an indie rock drummer for hire, playing with Bonnie Prince Billie, Cat Power, Nina Nastasia and others. He's got a very flamboyant style with big flowing arm movements. He completely upstaged Bill Callahan when playing with Smog. It's hard to find a good YouTube clip, but here he is with Dirty Three: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw3GIWWiKjU

Haha, this is a timely thread revive. I spent a couple hours last night watching JoJo Mayer's dvd: http://youtube.com/watch?v=VLQMFIueUyc
The first disc is real talk, probably the best thing I've seen on grips, basic wrist/finger techniques, moeller, etc.. Then on the second disc he gets into all the push-pull/thumb swivel/crazy fast one-hand stuff, some of which is like science fiction to me. :( But it's good drum geek shit, it made me want to get into more of a definite practice routine. And the little interludes where he's playing beats outside in all these different NYC spots are nice.

Stuff like that quickly turns into chops as an end rather than a means, so I tend to tune it out.

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.

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 (four years ago) Permalink
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 (four years ago) Permalink
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.

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.
