never could put my finger on it. suburban feel is a great name for it. until i got more into diverse artist and away from standard rock, i started to break my feel, thus becoming more jazzy, broken and able to play with more flow. this video is hard to grasp while your young or old and busy trying to play just like travis barker, but changing up your taste will open new doors! cheers!

Drum practice is essential. Only tip I have is if practicing starts to feel like a job or you feel stale on the set then take a break from the drums. Hit the pad for a week or so instead and then return to the set.

As a retired airline pilot I like your analogies of working in the simulator. One of the goals of the hours and hours in the simulator was not only to drill the mind/muscle memory. Thrust Lever -confirm, idle. Fuel control switch - confirm, cutoff etc. But we also learned context in knowing when and where to use those steps and how they might apply elsewhere. As a beginner that is how I perceive practice in that you learn specific steps as well as the bigger picture. You do it enough so that it is second nature that leads you to take the proper steps and avoid the wrong ones. The famous attorney F. Lee Bailey said that his "secret" was preparation, preparation, and more preparation. I never met a fellow pilot who thought he was over prepared and I imagine the same is true for you in the percussive arts that no one has "over practiced."

Did you agree with my take about the upset course and the pilot of that American Airlines a300 over-controlling with the rudder during that wake turbulence encounter? Of course not my take - I watch a lot of aviation KZbin 🤣
@Neal_SchierКүн бұрын
@@8020drummer Yes, you did a good job in using this for your example. The Copilot on that American A300 really "danced" on the rudders and unfortunately the rudder mode was still in a low-speed authority, but he thought that he was in an upset situation and applied the training as he had practiced in the simulator. All the airlines immediately made changes to the curriculum with many/most stressing to just leave the rudder out of the maneuver unless absolutely necessary. BTW, the other reason I liked your example of the simulator is that we could spend zero time on stuff we already knew, like starting the engines, and instead focus on those engine failures and windshear and other things we (hopefully) never see in daily operations but have to be prepared for. I just liked the concept that you were linking this to of when I sit down at the kit to practice am I just working at "starting the engines" or something that is harder/more challenging. This was a great video Nate. Keep up the good work.

The content of your vids is great, I watch (absorb!) all of them. Thank you for that. But isn't it time to change the theme music? Now that you are endorsing a different cymbal brand than the opening vid is showing, I think you should. Furthermore, the groove is nice (maybe even hip) but the guitar part, is, because of the descending nature, spirit drenching, in contrast to your vids, which lifts my spirit up. Just a suggestion. Thanks again

To practice only on a rehearsals is a little bit like trying to substitute session with psychologist with just a talk with a close friend. You still have some response for your input but you cannot scrutinize it under the microscope in a judge free environment. So you're loosing something valuable in your playing.

It needs to be a mix of playing and practicing IMO. The drummers that only play along to songs, usually can't play the songs note for note, lack the technical ability to play difficult parts correctly, and their time is usually not that great when they are the time makers (it is different keeping time playing along to a song with drums in it, vs having to set the tempo and keep it consistent while with a band, good time is built by lots of metronome, which is more difficult to keep time with than a recorded song IMO). The drummers that only practice their skills often lack musicality. They struggle for a bit to come up with parts that work with the songs. The drummers with a good mix, seem to be able to play with other musicians easier.

To be fair, there is a certain skill that you can't practice without rehearsing with other people, specifically; active listening. But if you expect a band to let you practice drums or the tracks while rehearsing - instead you should expect to find yourself out of that band.

@@8020drummer from the video I thought you were suggesting spending hours on timing/metronome exercises. I think that’s not nearly as valuable as studying music, ie transcribing masters and mimicking them, getting every tiny nuance. A sort of classic mentor/student relationship. It’s in periods people do this that I see massive growth in instrumentalists, when they get obsessed with a musician and copy every little detail, live inside them. Totally transforms their musicianship. That’s the power law activity imo.

@@jimgold2550 well the video I responded with gave my best thesis on that stuff. Sometimes some specific reps will save you time by targeting and repping a weakness, but it risks losing relevance to actual playing. But imho the solution isn’t to go maximalist to only “imitating your heroes”, but to “float like a butterfly and sting like a bee”, staying topical when you need to, and diving deep into the abstract if you detect a weakness that would be faster workshopped that way.
