Hi-Hat Barking - Drum Lesson (DRUMEO)

[@rwearing1754]

I've been playing for more years than I can admit.After a heart attack I have been forced to start over and retrain my brain,hands and legs your a good teacher my brother ,thanks RMWearing-Detroit

[@LanzX502]

How are you doing now?

[@shawn_tyranosaurus_rex458]

Well 1 thing for certain is he doing better or worse now. Hopefully the former.

[@c3mproductions]

Hey - sweet lesson on hi-hat barking. I had a stroke 3 years ago on my left side and my hi-hat foot is pretty weak. However - I seem to get buy! Most of the time I just keep the cymbals really loose to get a full rock/thrashing sound! MY 15 year old is recently found a interest in drumming. I'm having fun passing on what Ive learned over the hears. I'm going to make him watch this for sure!!

[@DrumeoOfficial]

Yes, I played the Roland as well and loved it. It's a great setup. There are a couple reasons I chose this kit though. 1) The silicone heads feel more natural to me 2) I can easily load sounds in via USB 3) The drum sounds on the module are awesome 4) Some of our Drumeo artists are Yamaha endorsed so it makes more sense to have this in studio 5) It's cheaper. Since I only use it for a practice tool, I don't need the $8000+ kit :) - Jared Falk

[@UndercoverNormie]

Thank you, that is a beautiful kit but I've always been brainwashed by "Give me Roland or give me death"

[@DICARLOSxBE]

Roland sounds and plays different. But the kick trigger settings are not the best in this video, lots of mis double triggering . ​@@UndercoverNormie

[@andybaker5800]

Just want to thank you Jared and all at drumeo. As a guitar player of 40 odd years I recently decided to play drums too. I could keep a beat but obviously I had no technique or theory. Ive been watching a lot of your youtube vids on everything from tuning and setting up to fundamentals and grooves and, honestly Im not sure what Ive got myself into.LOLOL. That said, you guys are making this journey a lot more interesting, intriguing and fun. Thanks guys. Andy

[@youwantaylor4284]

Awesome lessons, I've been play sine I was 13 took about 6-7 years off due to being away in the military and is really a few year's behind modern day's solo filling really good teaching.

[@mitchellbarlowmusic]

I tried to do this and my hi-hat bite me, please advice.

[@chillwithmikeofficial]

Mitchell Barlow hahahahahahah

[@bryanarmstrong5747]

Hi hat barks are usually worse than hi hat bites 🤣🤣🤣

[@jctailor]

Ha ha! Great comment!

[@kartikeyaverma4736]

That literally happened to me

[@jokho4492]

That’s why Jared do it on electric kit

[@MrKevz1993]

I just like to thank you on behalf of all of us that learn from your vids. Not everybody takes the time to give a free lesson specially from skilled musicians are you guys are. Thank you.

[@RipGroove922]

I've been trying to teach myself drums for a few years now, but it wasn't until I started watching your lessons that I really started making progress. You've helped me break some bad habits, and learn some great beats! Really, thanks!

[@logancasper9909]

I love how when you play a beat at a faster temp it can literally sound like a completely different beat!

[@Fanofjambi]

In a way it is, the 'duration of drum strokes to time inbetween drum strokes' ratio changes with the tempo.

[@SnipeYouFromMars]

Fanofjambi nice pic

[@trevoryates6144]

I love the long lessons Drumeo does. But these short vids answer a lot of "simple" questions inhale throughout the process.

[@Gritsen]

These are hands down the best general drum lessons on web. I already know the stuff you guys taught me inside-out in time when I actually get behind my kit. And the production values are amazing.

[@bto0623]

Newbie drummer here.....so far the vids are very helpful.....my kit is barely out of the box and I'm still playing with configuring and tuning. Thanks for putting up the videos and keep it coming !

[@you30bend]

me and my son are learning drums from you Jared, thanks so much for all your efforts.

[@kkoolwithak]

I love your exercises! I've been playing for 5 years and its fun to watch these videos and learn some new beats and just keep adding different techniques to my drumming to make it have more variety! A lot of these things are great to add to drum remixes too!

[@TheOriginalSammy]

New drummer here, got a drum kit a week ago. Your lessons are awesome Jared, learned the seven beats I must know, just need a little more work on no 6 the bossa nova. I splitted up the bass independence etude, begun with the bass and metronome and carried on with bass and hihat. Your rudiments on the drum kit are fun, and I came up with exercises of my own putting together patterns of paradiddel, paradiddel-diddel, and inverted doubbles (RLLR) which turn a righthand lead to lefthand lead.

[@miguelmagana2797]

Hey Jared I follow You from Belize!!!You are being of Blessing to Me! You and Cobus are My favorite Drummers! You guys are awesome!!! I wish I could meet great people like You and learn even more from You guys! keep on rocking! JS!

[@BravoColl]

Jared Falk, you are my hero! Thanks for all the lessons and advice!

[@johnwadmaniii]

Really enjoying your series of lessons. Amazed at how much my drumming has improved and how rapidly it has improved by learning these grooves and lessons! I can sit down behind a drum kit at my favorite music store and people actually think I know what I'm doing! Ha ha ha! Sometimes I play series of these grooves and I even impress myself!

[@CaptainJackSparroh]

like every other live drummer here, i almost closed out when i saw the electric kit, but it sounds amazing. its very hard to choose which i like more. great sound engineering, victor!

[@ronson3161]

Great stuff Jared, that last one was slick as hell. Showing some skill there.

[@kfings]

This is what I've been looking for not to actually learn how to play but to learn when to use them in my production

[@MrJoeyBoombotz]

Great lesson. You are a very good teacher!!

[@switchingtime]

Love hi-hat bark patterns since they're so in the pocket. Groove-oriented drummers must have a field day with this.

[@NoyElankry]

that was an awesome lesson! :-) thanks Jared! going to try it right now... btw the electric kit sounds really goood ;)

[@miguelacuna9100]

Amazing how one lesson can be incorporated in many different way. Thank you for this.

[@Red0991]

Great lesson Jared! Barks are a ton of fun, hopefully people who watch your stuff will use them more, and we can expect to hear them in upcoming bands.

[@Zanthxs]

Dave Matthews! Yeah! Thanks again Jared for the vids... always great and motivating.

[@visitationone]

Wonderful, Jared.. I keep learning so much from you! Greetings from Brazil.

[@prabuw]

Love it. Last groove at the faster temp was groove-a-licious! Bring back da funk!

[@benpatterson5400]

Really great Jared. Can't tell you how much your videos have helped me.

[@jaysonattinelli4464]

Hi Jared. I've just recently acquired my first drum set. It just so happens to be an electric kit. Roland TD6 with all mesh heads. I've found your videos to be the best to play and learn at the same time. Keep it up man, it's very encouraging.

[@manditorygaming6566]

I love that groove at the beginning 👍

[@andybuk71]

Hi Jared. I think this is a great lesson and I'm looking forward to trying the exercises - I appreciate that in terms of technique the h-hat bark is pretty straight forward (and you do mention about not having the hats open too long), but I would have liked a bit more explanation of the right and left foot syncopation. But please keep up the great lessons.

[@drakd100]

i really appreciate the lesson. im thinking of starting to play the drums and thought i would see how they are played first. when i see stuff like led zep , sheila e, hanna ford or neil pert i think there is no way, i do appreciate the simple way you have made some of these beats. it looks like all drummers kinda have these beats to play to

[@earljackson7905]

Great lesson Jared! Works especially well with funk and smooth jazz! Bark on!

[@Worshipbyruben]

Ive played for quite a while and had no idea what that was called, love the last exercise, thank u!

[@loykdoyk]

That electric kit sounds (and looks) pretty sweet!

[@drummaboi2715]

Truly amazing...nd the fact u even made it easy for ppl who dont read sheet music...nice. The kit ....wow...kudos to u

[@chuckhenley575]

I noticed that Neil Peart used hi-hat barks in several tunes, Tom Sawyer was one that really stood out to me the most.

[@sweetbeansaresuper]

Loved the lesson. This gave me some ideas for some rock fills. Really nice and I enjoyed it.

[@chrishaigh8336]

Thanks for all the lessons mate, I've been watching you for years

[@cignus19831]

Great drum lesson,looks so much fun... about to give it a go

[@eyeslave1]

Great demo as usual Jared. Please keep em comming.

[@HipnoticBeatz]

Really like the execution and precision in his technique. Tight Drummer !!

[@rochejohnson1409]

I'm so late to the party, but that intro gave me life!! Great video!

[@viperspeed11]

jeez, thank you. , . been playing for years. and these are basic lessons that ive always needed

[@gerzongarias9853]

thanks very much! for the time and the passion you put in this videos! help me a lot,God bless you and all your team!

[@edgarmartini]

saludos desde argentina !! Muy completas y excelentes lecciones. Sigan asi !

[@agdt2004]

Hi Jared, thanks for featuring a lesson with an electronic drum kit!! Awesome tips!

[@xaldinofmany]

Awesome kit you got there Jared, you are doing a great job :)

[@pearlivan]

bien!!!!!!! Jared, lo mejor, gracias por las técnicas, saludos desde Ecuador

[@alecmtn]

Jared........an excellent lesson Any level of drummer can use these. The reading is relatively simple. That fact will make an average beginner sound great without months of hard work Good job!

[@dashmaul]

Allright thx for the feedback. Your motivations make sense. The TD30 has USB input now too though. I use one to practice with your videos! Keep it up!

[@jeffdownfield1455]

Excellent tutorial. Will be interesting to see what kind of drummers will spring up in the next decade after they had the luxury of learning from internet video. I started drumming in the 70's when there were no videos, no mp3's to loop, and no internet. We had to go to a store and buy a vinyl album and figure it out by ear. Would have loved to had KZbin back then to see what the drum legends were actually doing to achieve the sounds I heard.

[@adrianchin69]

Thanks for the lessons Jared. I've just started learning to play the drums and your beginer lessons are great. Thanks.

[@diggabledork]

Good talk. I think the reason it's usually on an off beat is because it's a great sound for syncopation. The song that is commonly credited with bringing this technique to the mainstream is Aretha Franklin - Rocksteady. Drums on that song by Bernard Purdie. I would also suggest you listen carefully to the feel of the right vs left hand hi-hat "barks" as you played them in this video, lesson #1. The hi-hat open-time is naturally a little different. I play them both ways, depending on situation.

[@brandonbbs8148]

you are absolutly right about the barking it spices up the beat, in church i've heard a hi hat roll with barking it sounded totally awesome, bdw nice electro kit

[@sjds51]

I played acoustic kits for 27 years and quit for 25 years. At 62 I bought the Yamaha DTX kit and have had a ball playing with the new electric kit!!!!!

[@joshjamesuk]

Great lesson Jared. The kit sounds amazing!

[@thelethalmoo]

this has allways been something iv wanted to tweak. awesome this vid turned up!

[@zdresser]

Wow, a hi hat lesson on an electronic kit, and it sounds good! I'm impressed, Yamaha

[@satishrengarajan5806]

Your lessons have always been useful for me!

[@noobsmoke79]

God I want that shirt!

[@joelcoool]

The rev's hi hat barks in Gunslinger, Almost Easy and Scream are really cool, especially gunslinger the way they're in the middle of fills. I also love some of mike portnoys uses of hi hat barking, such as that bit of dance of eternity with the beat that's pretty much constant barks.

[@1dudecrush]

You know, I think the song almost easy was the thing that taught me hi hat barks...didn't even know what it was called for years, and i don't even listen to a7x anymore. But those were tasteful bark accents. Good ole Jimmy.

[@joelcoool]

I only just found out what they were called too, and until recently I never really knew how to use them in fills and stuff. A spoonful of Jimmy helps the whole world go round :)

[@dineshpande8826]

Lessions are extremely helpful for beginners like me at age of 57.

[@Leftyone78]

Jared, amazing as always, thanks for sharing your skills with us! I have a request. is there anyway that you can give us beginners lesson on Latin rhythms! thank you sir much appreciated! :D

[@jakehill2010]

Jared! I never knew that term was barking! lol.....I have always been doing it! Never knew there was a term for it! Thanks!

[@Nickcave1994]

i'm from argentina, and your videos are awesome!!!

[@TheBeardedBuffoon]

I always wondered what they were called! I always use them, they sound so funky. You can make the most simple beats sound interesting!

[@gregcritser8927]

As usual really helpful professional and beautiful sound

[@yoshowo314]

Cool video!! and a really lovely sound of that electric drum set ;-) I was never decided to buy one but...maybe now I'll have to expend some cash in one!

[@subconscious1998]

amazing lesson. very helpful. really loved the using of left hand for barking, is there any theoretical name for barking

[@OfChaosAndPeace]

You have some of the best control over your bass drum that I have seen. I would give my left kidney for you to watch my bass drum playing and teach me what I can do to play faster and with more control.

[@TobiLeggend]

man i love jareds style of playing, so tight!

[@elizabethmstudios8692]

I don't have a drum set but am learning drumming from all your videos. :)

[@suburbanindie]

Thank you for informing of a term I was not aware of

[@tupacatracho]

Thank you! this lesson has definitely improved my drumming!

[@Rless45]

Thank you so much Jard for the wonderful job you guys are doing at drumeo!😉👍👏👏👏 Great lesson on hi-hat barking & enjoyed that last exercise 😜👍

[@santiagotopali1]

[@AdamRedmond88]

Good lesson. Appreciate having the notation onscreen and .pdf for download- PRINTING! :D

[@ozan.arslan]

[@himl994]

[@justinparker7630]

Todays video: "That shit Chad Smith does all the time."

[@manditorygaming6566]

Hey screw you Chad Smith is a great drummer

[@lukecarodrums]

ManditoryGaming he didn't say Chad wasnt good...you idiot!!

[@GweENxGoBWiN]

Glad you mentioned Carter from DMB! he is crazeh!

[@babyjesuslovesme1219]

That was a lot of fun to listen to I'm glad you decided to make alesson out of that technique.

[@jdogmcnasty1980]

Props to CARTER! He's so underrated

[@kokonutssss]

Hey cool stuff, man! Ive been watching a bunch of your vids, they're pretty cool, braj! Keep it up!

[@ryanscott7022]

Awesome video man, thank you!

[@blacktuxedoes1312]

Barks are super versatile and can be used in pretty much any style, check out the song Pain Again by Varials to see it being implemented in Metalcore, Sean is a highly underrated drummer

[@slivergirl92]

I really like your drum lessons. They help me a lot. Thanks!! (=

[@DrumeoOfficial]

It is a DTX 950k.

[@sergitocastrog]

all good. last one awesome. thanks! love all the videos.

[@bjfx123]

another great drummer that uses this technique in a really unique way is Scott Phillips, drummer for Creed...its really evolved over the years and he uses it in really unique ways, especially when he's playing for Alter Bridge too

[@程航-z2f]

Helps me a lot with these technique when I playing the fusion n funk groove thx a lot,jard

[@steezy1234able]

OMG # 5 sounds so fun to play i'm definitely going to play it :DDDD
