Guys and gals.... Jeff is an outstanding instructor and I wholeheartedly recommend signing up for lessons with him! His lessons are challenging, encouraging and fun.... with great resources to keep you fired up for practice and move you forward as a drummer! 👍👍

[@drakausdromgatti58]

I love that the 80's were the future

[@skateforzero357]

Imo, I think the 80's were the most ambitious decade. Things like synthesizers and electronic drums were first becoming easily accessible, and it really changed the way people made music.

[@jonasverlo]

This is groovy! Im really into your drum tone here, had been cool with a comment (or possibly a video?! 😱) on how you achieved that. Thank you, Jeff! 🙌🏻

[@pentzzsolt]

I love playing linear stuff like these, thanks Jeff for today's practice material! It's actually surprising how well these beats hold up in the studio. Every couple of bars you replace a note on the hats for a bell and you're golden.

[@ariffyn]

Quality content, man. Instantly wanna go try out the beats whenever you put up vids like these

[@adrianpunga1998]

Thank you Jeff, love these, can't wait to work on them😎

[@claymine]

As always, all killer, no filler.

[@Nachi_Keta]

Now that's some sick Grooves right there! Awesome!

[@quicolic]

I loved this format of video, Jeff! Very practical and straight to the point! Always great content!

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

Much appreciated!

[@sethhuffman9167]

You’re my favorite drummer on KZbin hands down. Keep up the great content!

[@julesdrums6167]

Dude, those are some sick beats. Also love how you were able to EQ that sound out of your kit.

[@robertocoria5575]

Thank you!

Absolutely brilliant beats man, love them all

Thanks Paul! They definitely will. How are those fills coming?

[@Rifle56]

@@JeffRandallDrumming they’re coming along... I’m working thru them an hour a day and trying to get them nice and smooth before I speed them up. Thanks!

Good stuff, Jeff. That Latin style is fire.

Thanks Matt!

Love u bud xx from E.U.

[@salvadorlopez8474]

Nice👍👍

[@MrWwoww123]

An open hi-hat instead of the floor tom at the end of pocket groove sound nice as well. Maybe not futuristic but still tasty 😋

[@dalekervick4316]

🔥🔥🔥

[@Simon-iy7mt]

These sound awesome! Number 4 in particular is the shite!

[@nixneato]

Just leaving a comment for the YT algorithm - your videos are such a joy to watch. Quite a bit of delay on your drums in this one, or maybe it's the muffling that makes it so apparent. Sounds awesome.

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

Yeah, I definitely added a good bit of delay for extra vibes in this one. Thanks for the help with that stinkin' algorithm Nix.

[@nixneato]

@@JeffRandallDrumming Any time bro, you bring the community so much, thanks for that.

[@gogolito]

tight.

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

Much appreciated.

[@mbrasio]

Thank you Jeff!! I love your drumheads, can you tell us what they are?

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

You're very welcome Manuel! I have Big Fat Snare Drum Quesadilla's on the drums in this video to muffle them. bigfatsnaredrum.com/products/bfsd-quesadilla-cloth-heads

[@mbrasio]

@@JeffRandallDrumming Oh, nice!! thank you

[@lajeanette33]

Hi. I love the sound you acheived! I know a lot is in your playing style, but did you use a special tuning outside of the drum tortillas on top? Thx Cheers fron switzerland 🇨🇭

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

Thanks Morgane! I put some towels inside my hi-hats to muffle them a bit and loosened my snare. But that’s it. Those drum tortillas work well!

[@td-12kx53]

Retro/futuristic??? That’s an oxymoron! Regardless, cool beats, Jeff. Thanks for sharing your tremendous talent!👍

[@Simon-iy7mt]

"Retrofuturism (wich is spelled without a slash) is a movement in the creative arts showing the influence of depictions of the future produced in an earlier era. If futurism is sometimes called a "science" bent on anticipating what will come, retrofuturism is the remembering of that anticipation". Wikipedia. You're welcome. ; )

[@shackleton72]

Where is the link to the sheet music dude - great drums , thanks

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

Hey Tommy, it's the first link in the description box. Thanks bud!

[@joeljewitt3098]

Beat 7 could be a cool fill as actual half time right?

[@rosstafarian24]

Just realized you are using the butt of your sticks on all these. Is it both sticks or just left? Hard to tell. It definitely seems to alter the sound in addition to the other things you did. Excellent ideas and video.

[@ibaterista]

Hi, How do you get the muffled sound? Thanks!

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

I put some Big Fat Snare Drum mufflers on them! But you can also use towels, ext.

[@rosstafarian24]

@@JeffRandallDrumming are those the quesadillas I saw Nicky baggz with?

BEAT 5 IS SO MONEY

[@timbobwe1]

How come in the Disco beat I can swear I hear a third, ghosted hi-hat on the Kick L Rs?

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

I added some 'delay' to the drum mix which is what you're hearing.

[@timbobwe1]

@@JeffRandallDrumming Ahhh, that makes sense! Thank you!

[@keiththehawk6512]

Butt ends of the sticks Jeff ? Is this a new approach for you ? Lends to a beefier sound . Just may have noticed it before

[@jamesmason1347]

Sounds like Don’t Come Round Here No More by Tom Petty

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

That was a definite influence for a couple of these beats!
