3 Easy Drum Fills That Sound Hard

"3 drum fills that are really easy if you have 13 toms"

Nah dude, 3 toms and a snare, good to go

Nobody: How many Toms you will use?? Jared Falk: Yes

[@_shark_chick_]

Was just thinking that as i started the video

[@MaelstromMephistoPEM]

Dude look at Neil Pearts Tama kits. They have 10 toms total.

[@andrewmurphy5310]

5 toms isn't really that unusual

[@gregpatnude4264]

Great video and tutorial. Really spells it out for people. I got lucky -- I'm a left handed drummer that plays right -- I was trained in public and private and learnt the standard rudiments in 1969 at age 7. I'm 61 now and play/practice regularly with a band or two. Because I was trained by right-handed people, I learned to lead right when playing the drums but would naturally try and lead left. Everyone should master their triplets, diddles, flamadiddles, paradiddles, and any kind of odd-number (3-5-7-9-11-13-15-17) patterns as fills, and single-stick patterns with either hand. Once you can switch your lead- and patterns back and forth start dropping/missing beats out of the pattern (simply rest (^) instead of sticking it) -- start moving the sticking onto the various drums and other noise makers and you get cool-ass syncopated -arpeggiated odd-meter-patterns and grooves that sound like nobody else... The trick I had to learn was being able to fluently switch patterns, sticking, and target (drum/tom/cymbal/cowbell, etc).

[@jalel_z2867]

Why do none of these tutorial drummers ever have a normal 5 piece kit

[@r3ki474]

Yuh kinda annoying cause i’m a begginer so i only have a normal electric drum kit which is a normal 5 piece kit so like u know i have to adopt

[@TheJoGeLu]

@@r3ki474 The concept of moving your arms remains the same though, regardless of how many pieces in your kit you have.

[@brodynations4243]

I think it’s more Impressive when a drummer makes a 4 or 5 piece kit sound great

[@sammyloehnis3373]

When he's demonstrating it slowly, he's only using 3 toms most of the time, and he's only involving more of his kit when he speeds it up

[@stevenmccloughan]

He has like 7 kits there and to that i say 👏🏻 well done sir well done.

Been following you guys for about a year now and I have to say a massive shout out to you for not only providing some of the best teaching content out there but also for opening my eyes to drummers I had never heard of and styles I had never considered before. Keep on doing what you are doing and spreading that positivity 😁

[@LikeaGlove90]

The first fill is something I'm practicing and I've never felt I sounded cool until now (even tho I know I still sound like a dork!). I'm having fun, that's all that matters. Thank you so much for these simple videos - this changes everything for us!

[@crispycruizer]

I have been watching Drumeo since the beginning on KZbin, and have never seen this one before. This is by far my favorite one of yours. I am glad I stumbled onto it and learned a cool concept that works in multiple tempos.

[@FuzzyDrumming]

Love how you made the sections on videos' timeline: thanks!

[@erensametkaratas6593]

I've been struggling for a while now with how to do fills while having a nice rhythm. I've watched some videos and none of them helped. Not that they were bad videos, it's just they didn't work for me. But with this one, I think I finally got it and it feels like it clicked. Thank you for this foolproof video.

[@patrickpaulsen6401]

Jared, I just wanna say how impressed I continue to be by your transparency and humility in your drumming. You are obvious;y far beyond most drummers, yet are not afraid to admit your struggles....well done.

[@thegamingturtle9553]

Johnny Bravo back at it again with the drum fill tutorials 🤩

[@heisenberg5747]

I love how he laughed after the first fill with the 180 bpm tempo..because that's also druming laughing and having fun behind your kit :)..keep up the great work

I've been doing these odd groupings right hand lead with 16th notes for years and have loved it, but to simply lead with the left as a variation makes total sense. Thanks for reminding me I have a left side of my body. I can't wait to put to practice. Lastly, this lesson motivates me to try these odd groupings within triplet based fills- doing some recalculating math during the process.

[@notsofast5495]

I can’t read music or play an instrument. Listening to you use all of the music terms and effortlessly transform it to sound absolutely baffles me but is so fascinating.

[@SuperDrummerJay]

The key is to not have a dominant hand, honestly. I wrecked my right wrist in high school, and had to play in our Jazz ensemble with double sticks in my left hand. (I was right dominant at that point.) When I first went to college, our lead drummer in Jazz was a lefty, and set his kit up that way. When we would trade for songs, it took me way too long to switch his kit to fit what I was playing. So I set up my kit at home as a lefty, and learned the songs playing on a "backward" kit. Try it out! Give it some time, take some easier songs you know well and play them on a "backward" kit. Your interdependence will improve if you get past the initial frustration from it!

[@dairyairman]

Cool! I never thought of doing these, especially the 5 and 7 group patterns. I tried them and they're all very playable. Thanks!

that bass drum sound is just *chefs kiss*

[@xNARCx]

I’m ambidextrous and play drums fairly evenly but I’ve naturally led left on fills even though I have my kit set up regularly so this is GREAT! I’ve always felt like I needed to retrain myself to lead right but now I know I just need to practice more however it’s comfortable for me.

[@FatalPurpose]

Great video!

[@ricklang_drummer]

Always good stuff from the Drumeosters. A follow up would be to take each grouping and play them in every subdivision. For just the three note combination (RLL, LRR, RRL, LLR) it would be playing them over triplets, sixteenths (quadruplets), quintuplets, sextuplets and septuplets. Same thing with all the other groupings. Then permutate the shit out of everything and add a kick in the mix. 10 years of practice right there.
