LEFT HAND TECHNIQUE LESSON - GREYSON NEKRUTMAN

[@genesises]

Straight from the legend! I don't play drums any more and I only used to play on a very amateur level - but I really enjoy watching anything you play. Your technique looks flawlessly smooth and you never half ass any video! Keep up the good work!

[@GreysonNekrutmandrums]

Thank you very much for your kind words!

[@PESkyMaestro]

@@GreysonNekrutmandrums your attitude and humility is commendable, keep up the good work!

[@superadam64]

I played snare in high school and we held the sticks traditional, but I cannot comprehend how you use your thumb so well with it. My chops are all in the fulcrum of my index finger, thumb, and the webbed part of my hand connecting it all lol. Jazz drummers are something else.

[@gregjacksun]

Certainly wouldn't want to use this on a marching drum. No sound quality.

[@PurpleRain123453]

Looks, charm, and truly legendary skills. The man makes it look effortless.

It's the same grip dummy.. you are obviously not a studious drummer..

[@mohdamiruddinsulaiman1383]

@@bbjazzmanjazzman7721 No shit. It's called comparison. Buddy Rich and Greyson Nekrutman have their own way of naming their technique. Same technique different names.

I learned traditional in a drum line, west coast, and we focus on the wrist motion of traditional, with the fingers just a stabilizer. Probably for more power vs dexterity with this thumb focused style

[@joebonfiglio3126]

Watch out!! I'm walkin here!!

[@mjm5081]

Thanks for sharing! Happy Drumming!!!

[@jasonderby7635]

really great for single stroke roles.

[@LeeDrumsVortexMath]

Hahaha I love that 😄 Class!! Man i hope that starts getting used.. in context to like, "so.. today we're going to learn how to hold our drum sticks. First.. we learn (matched grip) second we learn (traditional grip) and last but not least, we will be learning (the joy con method)". Thanks for sharing your technique man 😎 👍 👍

[@daryljay7057]

Very good! 2nd video of his I've seen. So refreshing to see somebody who knows what he's doing. I was a drum major in high school, played tenor drum in a drum & bugle corps. I played traps professionally for several years. Good looking young kid! IDK who he is, but he sure looks sharp! Enjoying the vids.

[@ChurroMyChicken]

WOOOOW Never heard that NY accent before now

[@whisperingthunder9832]

This man is one of the great living drummers on earth. Bravo

[@bryangates3142]

So clean and powerful

[@haypayne8937]

There is nothing powerful about taping with your fingers my boy. Useful for quiet music though. Lots of expert drummers utilize a tapping technique, never heard a god damn person call it 'powerful'.

[@p.n.k.-rokuza400]

Truly a professional. He makes what looks hyper-complicated to me and makes it look effortless and explains techniques in such a way that it is easy to understand. Keep it up!

Wonder if this technique comes into play with his drumming for Sepultura?

[@Onlymusikcansaveus]

This guy is actually a god

[@sherpFPS]

Idk if you put this up because of the comment I left like 2 days ago asking for it but thank you regardless (:

[@yuultube]

A bit similar to the use of the motion thumb for fast picking in guitar

[@SlipknotGlazer515]

I seen this legend on drumeo🤨 Bout time I found his channel so I can sub to it😂

How can I get faster with match grip on left hand, it's weaker than my right.

[@roywilliams7229]

You have to be one of the best drummers I have seen on KZbin. Keep rollin !

[@ac2346]

Joystick method...definitely a Smash Bros Melee pro

[@friedpicklezzz]

I can do that but it always leads to wrist pain. Back to progressive grip I guess…

[@b-sideplank]

i wonder why people continue to use the traditional grip.

[@thejudgefrom69]

I want to be able to do that one day..

[@marcrequenaadria6290]

Do you use the index and the middle finger to?

[@Charlie_B.]

Spoiler Alert: 2 years later he is CRUSHING it on the final Sepultura tour.

[@murraynatkie7490]

I didn't know that KZbin had a classy Adam Neely of drums for me. Thanks algorhythm!

[@josephstevens5489]

Crisp

[@pinkcat8855]

What hand are you using when you play with your joystick?

[@PeterKudelin]

and what do you do to double it? it seems like there's a middle finger, no?

[@robybomber4733]

Jojo mayer technique!

[@antrix2107]

So your thumb is the one that only do the works?

[@ermy1595]

right but… can you show your right hand technique now pretty please, i literally got too fast on my left from doing this and now the right is my bottleneck :(

[@stevelanam9462]

Think of your thumb, 1st finger, and bird finger as a pivot point and your last 2 fingers toggle the backside of the stick. Try it!! Coming from an old man/ drummer. This is the traditional way of holding sticks and the only way I ever played! Good Luck

[@ermy1595]

@@stevelanam9462 well i mean i know how to hold a stick (been playing for 9 years) im justing wondering how greyson plays so fast with the right hand, whether he’s doing like a push pull or just wrists or fingers….

[@sergiosolano4270]

He’s just using fingers, kind of a French grip for fast singles

[@eelamite]

so based for calling it the joystick method
