I like how the background music is also lasers

[@KillerRaspberry]

GingerKing243 that’s what I call continuity

[@EricPeelMusic]

Damn, off topic but the audio for this video is very well engineered! Comfortable listening level at 25% volume. Awesome channel btw! It would be cool to see a video on bass drum tuning.

[@colefender7270]

So happy that this channel is back! Keep it up!!

[@tommywong2871]

Keep it up with your fine work. The bass world needs you.

[@KillerRaspberry]

You guys are so underrated, and your videos should be watched by every high school Drumline period.

[@xxinevitablexx5914]

I'm bass one and I need this

[@Queeze101]

*You're the hero that we don't deserve. Also I'm curious, have you marched in any groups?*

[@Queeze101]

*Diggin' that hoodie, btw*

[@BASSDRUMGROUP]

The hoodie is one of my favorites for sure. I marched Pacific Crest a few years back, and then did POW, and aged out with Pulse this past season. I'm now teaching the POW Bassline :)

[@meguhman6201]

BASS DRUM GROUP What bass were you at Pulse?

[@BASSDRUMGROUP]

I played top!

[@Queeze101]

BASS DRUM GROUP - Sweet, so you marched The Uninvited? That was my favorite show!

[@TeamIslas]

So glad this is back!!

[@jacobruiz97]

*Bass Five has left the chat*

[@lancedyer3268]

[@J2kReal]

What you're doing is amazing. Dont stop!

[@carlossantacruz1320]

Elliot Duran marched Pulse 2017, first bass

[@gingygingergin]

this is such a great video for bass players, but also just percussionists in general since this is a really good exercise! you explain this so well

[@peierple]

I keep watching but it's so hard for me to understand! I love bass drums and wish i can play and teach many techniques. Im self taught but it'll be nice if i can understand what's happening in this video or all the other videos!

[@maxsalce3676]

Not even a bass player but these videos are so awesome

[@Huzkplayz]

You need more attention, this channel and your explanations are so helpful

[@wingkai7110]

[@Sexking-gx1xy]

Me playing bass 3 it helped me alot

[@dill1602]

Welcome back my guy

[@RedP2]

sick

[@RobertWrightOneManCovers]

Man, I've been dealing with educational materials for drum lines for more than 35 years, and I don't know of ANY of it that comes close to being as effective or efficient as your videos. If I was still teaching, I'd take the whole budget for percussion instruction and just send it to you.

[@jalenmerica2888]

Nice

[@Aaronmillager]

The only time I’ve played a laser beam, it was because our down beat was so dirty after a run the bass tech took pity and said we were trying a laser on his order to see how it’s sounded. I know now 5 years later, the he, we and the caption head all knew otherwise

[@resonanttotality8322]

Superb!!

[@williamsprayberry4545]

Could you do a video on the triplet version of this?

[@kennethsanchez4063]

This videos are awesome

[@jackflaumenhaft4010]

Just a set player passing through but, how do you have different notes on one drum?

[@BASSDRUMGROUP]

"Bass Drum" actually refers to a set of MARCHING Bass Drums within a drumline. There are usually 4-5 bass drums that are carried using a harness that are different sizes, small to big, and the size of the drums causes each one to have a different pitch. Each player only plays the notes on the staff that correspond to their drum. Hopefully that makes sense! Thanks for watching!

[@dexter3623]

Jack Flaumenhaft this comment me cringe in marching there’s 5 bass drums

[@jackflaumenhaft4010]

Dude I don’t even play in marching I play rock and metal I didn’t know that so calm down.

[@mannymanatee6592]

You should watch some of his lot videos! Marching bass is pretty amazing in my opinion

[@colbygrimes1848]

4:13 damn

[@zacharyjohnson3303]

Is there a channel like this for snare?

[@BASSDRUMGROUP]

There's a channel sort of like that for snare called Drumline Chops, but they haven't released videos for a couple of yours so what you see on their page is what you get. Hopefully one day someone will make something like that!

[@ricardoarana8259]

What program do you use to write out all these exercises and recordings?

[@BASSDRUMGROUP]

I use Sibelius!

[@jimmyjohn55]

What app do you use for the metronome

[@deltazing82]

YOU LIVE

[@DeathByApplesauce394]

[@gabe_8997]

[@itsallaboutbrass927]

He marched Pacific Crest 2011 and 2012. 2011 was the last year they used Dynasty.

[@finnyoakum]

[@bettoof]

[@skifihls6858]

Where Can I get the song?

[@BASSDRUMGROUP]

The song is called Without a Sound. It's by a producer called Home.
