Advanced Triplet Ostinato Groove | Quick Concepts

[@mattyn94]

I'm sure I won't be the only person who INSISTS you make this a series. This whole video was inspiring man.

[@abbdrums]

Thanks, good to know!

[@ivangrammer2328]

I second that notion. Great job Austin. The triplet ostinato pattern reminds me of a Danny Carey syncopated groove but a can’t recall the name of the song.

[@jedidrummerjake]

Matt Napier completely agree!!!

[@JpDubbed]

You would not be! That'd be awesome!

[@gregwilliams2764]

That stack made the groove awesome to my ears. I just bought an 18” the extra dry China but I need to know what you paired it with. Anybody

[@johnbreedlove3245]

That snare makes me happy. Austin, i like your articulate, easy going way and coolness. No ego, no frills. Real pro. Thanks n keep us learning!

[@raydrysdale2726]

This shall hence forth be known as the Austinato! Really like the idea of this series. If I may suggest, I think it would be more accessible if the Quick Concept had more of an evolution to it from super beginner mode to beast mode. No practice pads or anything, keep it quick, I just mean starting a little more basic and build it (I know the title is advanced of course)

[@eddieavakian]

I’m really loving the concept video format and find it the most helpful for improving my own playing. I also really appreciate your teaching style. Make more!

[@theriphraff]

Yes. DO THIS! Always looking for new things to try on the drums and things to practice. Do this segment!

[@djdrizzz]

I’m already liking this series keeps me learning new things👌🏽👍🏼id really love more👌🏽!!

[@jasonc5239]

This is a cool idea for the Rosanna shuffle as well, it would produce a really similar sound, but would probably be easier to execute at a quick tempo.

[@enciodejesuslobomercadal7084]

I like the hihat sound...Is pretty cool!!!

[@macfinster3]

Beautiful!! Terry Bozzio has some nice ostinatos on his drum video.

[@jamesbryce9605]

Finally, you're back. And with some fresh ideas and cymbals.

[@testabeatdrums]

I loved this Austin, when I get my set up I'm definitely putting this in my must learn grooves

[@christianfraude4517]

Love this Swing/Shuffle groove & thanx Austin I've been getting stuck into your Hand workouts online too !! Great lesson !

[@abbdrums]

Thanks! That’s great to hear 👍🏼

[@magicben99]

This is so original i love it man ! Please keep going with this series

[@DaveS432]

Cool idea. I do like how in Study the Greats you had the transcriptions to visually follow along. Having the basic pattern or groove in a transcription to print up would be helpful.

[@leptyga]

Drums sound amazing man. Thanks for your generosity Austin!

[@FamilyGuy12693]

I enjoyed this as well! Good format, and it makes me think of other fun ways to explore the kit.

[@jjdrumworks]

Glad you're back! that "smug" look at 3:27 says it all! hahaha, that's a great groove man! In a few days, it's gonna be MY great groove!

[@Geronimo122]

Excellent! To my ears the version with the ride cymbal works the best. Great video!

[@tjthorn9703]

Really enjoyed this video and the Quick Concepts idea. I like it.

[@dialmo2rock]

Tom’s tuned to D major. I like it. Clean groove austin!

[@adrok1830]

Just love your content Austin! When you mentioned it took a few days to execute and understand I would truly appreciate a few quick comments on your videos of the steps you took to achieve that.. Keep up the great work..

[@salchaos]

Thanks for this great lesson. I appreciate it and your dedication.

[@bretdorton]

Nice teaching method! I like this a lot. This is why I subscribe to you.

[@Pose005]

Pumped for the series!

[@pierresmith]

This is the kind of grooves Virgil Donati always do ! Expert level !

[@jdsgotninelives]

I vote for the series too please! Also I found the ride cymbal version of this beat really inspiring. It's a groove you could loop over someone's soloing, or as a subtle driving beat back drop to the whole track. Thanks :-)

[@costa3084]

Love this format

[@christiancanalita6487]

So cool! Why would anyone give this a thumbs down? Probably because they can't do it or want to work at it.

[@antonbagger7887]

this quick concepts thing is cooooool! keep it going dude!

[@KyleSherman]

I like the format. Hope you don’t stop with study the greats altogether though. The enthusiasm you’d have for the licks from study the greats was nice. For this one, I wasn’t so much a fan of the groove at first but the quarter note triplets brought a very interesting aspect to it. Interested to try it for myself. Thanks! Keep up the great work!

[@Groth_xii]

This is sick! Looking forward to the upcoming episodes brother

[@cptboomshard9418]

That's a bad ass groove concept! Have you tried playing it as a straight time groove instead of half time? I would love to see that, especially with the quarter note triplets! That would be one busy right hand and would have a neat polyrhythmic/meter feel!

[@tryharder249]

Wow, Fool in the Rain e Shinbone Alley - Hard To Exist grooves usaram isso, muito bom!!!

[@guilherminoneto4265]

Great, Austin! Gotta give it a try.

[@I_Beer]

great concept, great drummer and great video keep it up !!!

[@aaronandleeazza01]

The only other thing I can suggest is to maybe add the tab for the concept or idea. Great video and as always Austin, great playing. Thank you.

[@Cojones1972]

This is awesome man. Please keep doing these.

[@believeinittobe]

YES, please keep this going...

[@kynancecove]

FABULOUS AUSTIN!

[@radiosant]

Hey Austin, I’ve been watching and immensely enjoying your videos for quite a while (the Keith Carlock paraddidle concept initially pulled me in) but I’ve not commented before. One slight variation with this new pattern that I would like to see you try is playing the right hand on the ride as you did, but moving to the bell of the cymbal for the quarter note triplets. When I heard you play this pattern, it struck me that with some very slight adjustments this could easily become a Latin feel, and shifting that part of the pattern to the bell is a step in that direction. Thanks again.

[@abbdrums]

Hey Anthony, I had actually tried that when I was practicing it but I was having trouble traversing the distance from the bell back to the snare in time for it to sound clean so I just didn’t attempt it in the video. The bell does sound cool in this groove though if you can pull it off.👌🏼

[@radiosant]

Hey Austin, thanks for the reply. I've not yet even had the guts to attempt this groove, and your comments on the difficulty of moving the ride cymbal pattern to the bell makes a lot of sense. Also, please don't think my comment was intended in any way as a criticism or a pissing content - if anything, your response is that much more dispiriting to me; when I read it, I thought, "damn, if he chose to omit the bell, there's no way in hell I'm ever playing it!" Thank you so much for all of your hard work. The transcriptions and conceptual ideas you've provided in STG have improved me as a drummer immensely.

[@blackl1steddrums]

You just studied your own greatness Austin

[@tdrum21]

Very nice. Dig it!

[@Rolback1247]

Keep it up! Love the idea

[@dmitriyblagobaraban583]

Super Video , thank you Austin

[@mariohbbrd9384]

good lesson, keep them coming!

[@davidbrown9395]

as cool as the groove is, the orchestrations are even more inspiring

[@ARDrummer]

Awesome groove! Nice and creative :)

[@HughMorristheJoker]

Cool groove

[@Dre-vd3pv]

Great series! Keep this going, could definitely use some more beats!

[@rlrrlrll181]

3:29 mmmmm moment

[@lucianosj69]

Just wicked!

[@StartdrummingDe]

Hey, that´s a very cool an sophisticated Groove!

[@jolyoncox]

Yep, do it Austin!

[@lanceh4653]

Cool idea, be interesting to here it incorporated with some music. Quick concepts seems like a great idea. Give use some quick takeaways without being to involved.

[@HelmarWeiss]

nice groove!

[@coiLz0r911]

Holy shorts this one is gonna be a real devil to learn. More please.

[@masakreinflames3690]

Very good lesson. I think that would be easy for people who usually do Tool stuff...

[@ACLOCKWORKDRUMMER]

the burch is back!!

[@FabianoOliveiraDrummer]

4:40 excelente ☺️☕️

[@dvdgnzlz25]

Much more interesting on the ride.

[@jedidrummerjake]

Love it! LOVE IT!!!

[@jonmccallum4477]

Did you try swapping the right foot pattern as well? I would of liked to have heard the original foot pattern with the 8th note triplets as well as the 8th note Triplett right foot pattern while playing against the shuffle.

[@abbdrums]

I didn’t try that but that’s a good idea!

[@peterlibby466]

Good stuff. Melody and independence. Great vocabulary builder. Lessons with the greats are fun and all but this feels like it builds more individuality in a drummers voice and identity. I suppose they both do but this turns away from hero worship and aping a well known cats style.

[@abbdrums]

Yea I think this is my way of venturing into exploring and sharing my own ideas instead of just doing STG’s. I’ve been feeling a push inside to do more of my own stuff lately so this is probably just part of my evolution as a player/teacher. We’ll see how it goes over time!

[@peterlibby466]

Austin Burcham good stuff Austin. I’ll work on this when I get home. It’ll be fun.

[@gregwilliams2764]

Did you put the 16” Classics brilliant trash crash under the 16” extra dry byzance China? If you did, it’s perfect! It’s awesome I have the China in transit now but 18”. Answer please

[@abbdrums]

Hi Greg, yes the China is on top of the Trash Crash 👍🏼

[@Devourer_of_Pie]

Austinato Groove!

[@renancosta2775]

Sou seu fã Brasil aqui 🇧🇷🤗

[@bidemand]

Hey Austin, love your vids! How do you get that left bass pedal to stop moving? Mine keeps drifting everytime i play it. Might be the carpet i use, i dont know. Would love any eventual info, in case you did something :)

[@nestorandreoli7596]

Sound much better with ride on right hand.thank you.

[@gregwilliams2764]

Looks like the extra dry 18 China but with what else?

[@drumken]

So you didn't send the Earthwork mics back!

[@lokwer]

Please continue the series !! Haha

[@gregwilliams2764]

That’s the best stack I ever heard. What is it ?

[@programpotion1039]

Good video

[@jrellsz]

WOW finally a lesson I think i might give a try lol. Everything else I watch just for entertainment but would never attempt :D

[@Don_LM]

Sweetnessss....

[@dominicneeson1613]

Why are you using the cans instead of the in-ears? (if you don't mind me asking) also class lesson really digging this concept now!

[@abbdrums]

Man, there's just something about these headphones I still love. I can still hear the acoustic low end from the drums but it filters out all of the harsh high end and it just sounds more natural than the in-ears. The in-ears are definitely more accurate and clear, though, so for certain applications I will go with those. But for practicing/informal stuff, I still dig the headphones 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@pellolopez3764]

Please make a study the greats episode of Virgil Donati!

[@jaydenlee8452]

I subscribed.

[@drazumi7391]

This reminds of rosanna 😍

[@StachelyPigglyBottom]

Want some serious coordination inspiration? Check out Yoni Maddar. Now THAT stuff is advanced.

[@effersidd1412]

Madar came to mind as well....incredible coordination!!!

[@Don_LM]

Did you rise the kit man ? Toms and Cymbals seem taller.

[@abbdrums]

Yup... I’ve gone back to my old school fusion setup with everything higher and more angled. I like it more than the low/flat thing.

[@Don_LM]

Austin Burcham , right on. Great videos man.

[@baldmitzvah]

WHAT ATACK IS HE USING????

[@abbdrums]

Did you mean stack? If so, it's a Meinl Byzance 16" Extra Dry China on top of a 16" Classic Custom Trash Crash.

[@baldmitzvah]

Austin Burcham ok thank you!

[@420protoman]

isn't that just a purdie shuffle lol well it was at first then you changed it to Meshuggah lol.. play that pattern on floor toms with snare

[@bretdorton]

Do you have click going on?

[@abbdrums]

nah I was thinking of using the click but I just played free time on this.

[@eliminshrintar]

I noticed you were filming just your feet as well. Why don't you add that footage as well to your videos? Would be even more awesome over the awesomeness at display here.

[@abbdrums]

For some reason I just never ended up liking it in the final video. I feel like it's pretty easy to see what my kick is doing from the overhead shot so I just let that take care of all that. If I'm demonstrating foot technique though, I definitely use the foot cam for that.

[@JimBailey22]

FUN

[@Thomlistentoslayer]

You look like Benny Greb Dude! Could cross for His Brother😎

[@anderszettergren4302]

Sounds like a SP-land.

[@johnnysoft7594]

NEEED NOTATION!!!

[@ifoldaa0078]

Austin, please stop with the Tool teasing, can you please give some more Tool lessons and possibly even a cover or two???

[@nexdrums]

Pretty interesting right

[@jaydenlee8452]

I learn drums from you remember?

[@ericgutierrez1434]

Replace hi hat with aux snare BOOM! Instant Virgil Donati clone

[@cnk2323]

Wooooh, that looked painful.
