DEEN CASTRONOVO "Plastic Planet" Drum Lesson-Rock Fills That RULE!//Drum Discipline Academy

[@rodrigoaravena4376]

I must Say that Jeff Bowders is the only drummer who made me learn double bassdrum technique well. Other drummers in different video platforms doesn't comunnicate their messages and demonstrate fills well at all.

[@JeffBowders]

Rodrigo, wow thank you for that. I appreciate it and am happy to know I've been able to help you on your journey. Keep Pressing!

[@IraSiegel]

You pick the best tracks to demonstrate. Love this album and bought day it dropped. Deen is amazing.

[@JeffBowders]

Thank you, Ira! Yes, it's great how well this album still holds up today!

[@shushutany6034]

Thank you for picking up this fast fill Deen created!!! Deen was very innovative!!! Nobody had played like him!! Even Mike Portnoy admitted this truth!!!

[@JeffBowders]

Absolutely! Deen is a true original.

[@PeachWNK]

Plays. 😉 But I know what you mean!

[@motivationnation6969]

Jeff, Great Job! Giovanni here, one of the original instructors from the Long Island Drum Center. Dig you're playing and dig the concept! Keep on Rockin Brother!

[@JeffBowders]

Thank you, Giovanni! Appreciate the kind words!

[@cutitshaveit]

Fantastic thank you

[@michaelshigeta5187]

Thank you Jeff for another easy to understand tutorial! Great job!

[@JeffBowders]

You're quite welcome, Michael!

[@streetmachine79]

I really enjoy these breakdown videos, Jeff! Deen is my favorite drummer and it’s nice to see him get the credit that he is so very deserving of! I’m hoping that you will continue to do more videos featuring Deen’s drumming! Thank you!

[@JeffBowders]

You're welcome! And yes, Deen deserves an immense amount of credit! Beast Mode!

[@PeachWNK]

I don’t know if either of you are interested, but there is an isolated drum track of “Kill the Guy With the Ball” on KZbin. Worth the listen!

[@JeffBowders]

@@PeachWNK of course I'm interested! Thank you very much for the tip!!!

[@PeachWNK]

@@JeffBowders They need more of them. I don’t know if I have the proper equipment to strip the vocals (when needed) and all of that. The intro on that one is so good. I would like to hear some of his live Ozzy stuff isolated. Maybe a few Cacophony songs.

[@JeffBowders]

@@PeachWNK the Cacophony and/or Marty Friedman "Dragons Kiss" stuff would be amazing!

[@gruntenallgau1027]

Great Lessons. Notation download super cool. Greetings from Germany 👍

[@JeffBowders]

I'm glad the PDF was helpful, Grunten! Say hi to Germany for me!

[@giannibadeau3344]

Always great lessons!

[@JeffBowders]

Thank you, Gianni!

[@christiancanalita6487]

So good! Jeez…..to get to the Jeff & Dean tempo range is tough!

[@JeffBowders]

Yes it's pretty speedy, Christian. But I know you'll crush it!

[@gazbuck73]

Awesome. Keep them coming especially by Deen 🤘🏼

[@JeffBowders]

You got it, Gaz!

[@KyleCastronovo]

Nailed it! Awesome job man!

[@JeffBowders]

Thanks Kyle! You’re a beast in your own right. 👊🏻

[@PeachWNK]

I’m not even a drummer. :) Deen’s variety of fills blows my mind, and you did them justice! (I subscribed. I’m kind of hyperfixated on music, and I love watching just the techniques behind a great song.)

[@JeffBowders]

Thank you! I'm not surprised that Deen's amazing drumming attracts the interest of non-drummers. A testament to him and you.

[@PeachWNK]

@@JeffBowders I’ve always been a rhythm girl, but his playing blows my mind. They have footage of the drum clinic he was a part of on KZbin, and they do closeups of his feet. His feet fly. He’s always modest about how all the “new guard” are ten times better than he is. My daughter was like, “But they do it with double pedals.” :) (Not that she’s a fan. Lol. She’s a drummer but she’s a little sh~~. Doesn’t want to admit her mom knows anything. She did acquiesce when she watched Deen play with Ozzy. “Maybe if he had stayed a metal drummer, I would have liked him.” 🤣)

Great lesson!

[@JeffBowders]

Thank you, Irving!

あなたのドラミングは最高にかっこよくてパワフルでテクニカルでグルーヴィです👍cool👍最高にかっこいいです👍👍👍

[@jondufour1745]

Jeff!!! What is that metronome you're using?

[@JeffBowders]

Jon!! That would be "Polynome". It's basically a metronome on a truckload of steroids! It's great.

[@jondufour1745]

@@JeffBowders Awesome, thank you! I really dig how it counts the quarter notes with voice, very cool.....and....it's purchased :)

[@JeffBowders]

@@jondufour1745 Excellent! I'll tell Joe Crabtree (creator and great drummer) he owes me commission!

[@半澤剛-p4k]

大変参考になりました٩(^‿^)۶ありがとうございました👍

Thank you and you're welcome!!
