3 Ways To Play Mozambique Grooves Like Steve Gadd | Drum Lesson By Chris Hoffmann

[@ChrisHoffmannTube]

Unreal experience to film this lesson for you on Steve Gadd's kit. I hope you enjoy the lesson as much as I enjoyed teaching it. Tell me your favorite Mozambique application. For me it's the Funk Variation on the cowbell or on the bell of the Ride.

You are my favourite ArtOfDrumming guy, you sound musical, natural and non-technical 100% of the time, and the descriptions and explanations are really easy to get for everybody. Just a perfect lesson. And yeah - the sound of the kit is unreal. If there is ONE best way of constructing a drumshell, it appears Yamaha have found it back then. Drum manufacturers could have just stopped developing new stuff at that point :D

Thank you. My pleasure 🙏🏼🙌🏼

[@ChrisHoffmannTube]

I was speaking to myself too. I need to regularly remind myself on that 🙏🏼 Great it resonates with y‘all ☺️

Clear, precise, and well executed. Even when showing just the bass drum samba pattern, his whole body is grooving.

Thank you!

Great reflexion at the end! Nobody sounds like you😍

I‘m glad you liked the closing part of the lessons 😊

Mozambique 🇲🇿 is an African country located in the south east cost. It has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Awesome people . I cant adress it enough It is more than just a music style 🫵🏽

[@timothyslaughter476]

I love to play along to late in the evening.....and mushanga by toto to get in that mood......just that funky, linear, gadd porcarro vibe.....always makes my day.

[@ChrisHoffmannTube]

🙌🏼 Yes 😊

[@timothyslaughter476]

@@ChrisHoffmannTube I learned the late in the evening groove from watching a vhs gadd video....over and over and over.....that will tell you I'm old....lol. But I was fascinated with the groove obviously. I was a huge Neil Pearl fan and copied all his stuff but in all honesty.....wish I would have spent more time studying gadd and others. Live and learn. Peace. Drum on......

[@jimiV66]

It's HAPPY MUSIC

First-time viewer. Super job explaining & breaking it down. I'm a visual learner & can really make progress once I see the rhythm played. Attended Steve drum clinic in Austin TX mid 90s I know he did a syncopated rhythm not sure if Mozambique was awesome. I'm still improving (69) thanks to guys like you. Much success amigo!

[@ChrisHoffmannTube]

Thank you very much Henry. There‘s a saying: „we dont stop learning because we get old. we get old because we stop learning.“ I hope i will be like you.

Hi Chris , you are a very talented drummer, these grooves are very difficult to learn, but i hope i will get there too.

[@geo-nardo6758]

Great video, great drum sound, great explanations & playing. Interesting to hear that the Yamaha Recording Custom sounds great also without resonant heads, if you prefer a dry drum-sound.

[@webber977]

Excellent work Chris much appreciated

[@ChrisHoffmannTube]

Thanks Mikey

[@vickjr98]

I really wish I could be a drummer man. Looks so fun

[@ChrisHoffmannTube]

It's so fulfilling. If you own a pair of sticks you ARE a drummer! Check out the description of this video. There's a link to the artofdrumming platform. I filmed an entire course that helps you getting started on the drums. Let me know if you need help with anything.

[@HeirophantCarneus]

You can, just need to practice. Every drummer you've ever heard and enjoyed got good by playing all the time.

[@jennoscura2381]

You can. Even if you can't play actual drums you can still play with rhythms. Due to disability issues playing real drums is out of the question. So I use drum machines. It allows me to add drums to my music without having to play real drums. So even I can be a drummer. Even if that involves programming a drum machine or sequencer instead of playing actual drums.

[@richiecomia3696]

It's a new year! Dive in and do it! Take a lesson from a local drum teacher; tell him/her how excited you get watching drum videos, and specifically mention you want to learn kit playing. Happy 2023!

[@timothyslaughter476]

Its the most fun you can have with your clothes on....but they don't have to be on....lol. drum on people.

[@PezrulezHaakon]

Great video. Cool grooves. I wish I could learn grooves like this, among other "world music" grooves, but they always twists my brain up completely. Too much coordination. I'll have to insert a new brain.

[@ChrisHoffmannTube]

Hey :) The mozambique is definitely not an easy one to start. When it comes to "world grooves" my students and me often start with the Bossa Nova. I feel like this Brazilian Groove is a good introduction to build other grooves upon on. Hope that helps :) ohhh and i can ensure, you don't need to insert a new brain. It's more about knowing how the human brain works and practice accordingly. You got this!

Great job both with tuning, playing, and recording this. Out of curiosity, what pitch do you tune the snare side head to? I hear a C# (277 Hz) on the batter head, and I assume you may tune the snare head to around 390-400 Hz, right? Do you use Diplomat Hazy and the SG signature 10 strand snare wires? Many thanks in advance, Pär
